History of violence in Bangladesh, a country born out of war

Bangladesh sees student protests over job quotas and ongoing political turmoil. After Sheikh Mujibur Rehman's 1975 assassination, military rule lasted until 1990. The Awami League, led by Sheikh Hasina, witnessed 2013's political violence, Abdul Quader Mollah's hanging, and a 2016 Islamic State attack. 2021 saw extremist violence targeting Hindu minorities, indicating severe communal unrest.
