🟡 Over 170 people have been killed.

Amnesty has verified evidence of unlawful force being used against student protesters. The authorities must protect protesters from further harm.

To stay in power, the murderer Sheikh Hasina is killing the protesting students and ordinary people using @UN logo marked armored vehicles and helicopters.

The Bangladesh regime is using UN vehicles to kill protesters. We demand a UN investigation.

A DW investigation revealed that vehicles with #UN markings have been deployed in the crackdown against quota reform protesters in #Bangladesh. The UN has called the violence against the demonstrators shocking & unacceptable. Follow @BirSchuelke for more.

The killing has continued. Despite this, you hear the chants 'razakar' continue! #HasinaMustGo #SaveBangladeshiStudents

Blanket shutdowns in #Bangladesh are impacting peoples' safety, security, and livelihoods. Access to information is critical and must immediately be restored.

[David Bergman @TheDavidBergman]

Braving it out ... and blaming the opposition.

Hasina's playbook. Will it work? The first indication of whether it will is to see what happens when the internet is restored - the country's ICT minister has said the government will likely put broadband (though not mobile) internet back online tonight. Most people in Bangladesh use mobile phones rather than computers to access social media/internet etc, but nonetheless it will be interesting to see what people being to post and its impact.

In the past the Awami League government has managed to arrest its way out of difficult situations, that is to say it arrests hundreds/thousands of opposition activists and that simply stops the opposition from organising protests - and the government may try to do this agains. So far the police are saying that 532 people have been arrested including senior leaders of opposition BNP/Jamaat. In addition, the well respected Prothom Alo newspaper reports that 61,000 people have been charged with violence. It is unlikely that these are are 61,000 "named" people, but by not naming individuals in criminal cases, but by putting a number, the police can effectively arrest anyone they want and show them arrested in relation to one of these cases. A great way of arresting anyone who the authorities see as a troublemaker or threat. This is how it has been done before. However, in the past, it was only opposition activists involved in protests and that is far from the case here - in fact it is not clear at all whether opposition activists and leaders were involved that much with the protests - and so the question is whether the police will start arresting students in large numbers. This may be far more difficult for the government to do and get away with.

Bangladesh police. Who do you serve? #SaveBangladeshiStudents

[Sami @ZulkarnainSaer]

Since the internet connection was partially restored in Bangladesh, graphic images and videos have flooded the web. In one such video, members of the Bangladesh police are seen shooting at an injured person from point-blank range (at south of Dhaka, Shanir Akhra area). The injured individual was being carried away by another protestor, but the police shot both.

Fearing safety, the person who was assisting ran away with his life, leaving the injured at the mercy of almighty. They were unarmed.

Sheikh Hasina and her associates should be held responsible for this carnage.

Bangladeshi authorities have used unlawful force against student protesters and failed to ensure their protection during the ongoing ‘Bangla-Blockade’ quota-reform protest across the country.

It's been 8 long hours since Bangladesh, a country of 170 million, has been out of communication with the rest of the world. The authorities in Bangladesh shut down the cellular network and internet service across the entire country following violent clashes between security forces and students. The students have been demanding reforms to a controversial quota system that gives advantages in job placements to family members of freedom fighters.

Thirty-two people, mostly young students, have lost their lives and the number of death is likely to increase. This disturbing video from Dhaka exemplifies the police brutality in Bangladesh. Shykh Yamin, a computer science student at the Military Institute of Science and Technology, was dragged inside a police APC from the protest. He was shot and then his body was tossed onto the road. Do you see any regard for human life in this video? Yamin was still alive when the cops tossed him onto the road; he later died from his injuries.

🚨 Bangladeshi police killed a student, put his body on top of police vehicle and drove around the streets before dumping the body on the street.

I am getting reports that 49 students have been killed in Bangladesh. Bangladesh Police, Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB), Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) are indiscriminately attacking and firing at students. Several tanks and APCs (Armored personnel carriers) from Dhaka Cantonment were seen moving through city streets this afternoon.

Students are being killed in Bangladesh, and many are injured for protesting the job quotas being imposed by the government. SOLIDARITY WITH THE PROTESTORS! Victory to the students!

STUDENTS IN BANGLADESH ARE BEING ATTACKED. There is a total black out in the media. Internet cut off. The situation is critical. Huge support for all the brave students from East London tonight.
