Last update: 4 hours ago

Measles Emergency: Bangladesh’s measles crisis surged again, with 16 more children dying in 24 hours and 1,306 suspected cases reported nationwide, pushing suspected deaths to 442 and confirmed cases to 8,622 since March 15. Hospitals in Dhaka remain overwhelmed, and officials say the outbreak is still moving fast. Eid Logistics: Ahead of Eid-ul-Azha, Bangladesh Bank extended banking hours for branches near cattle markets until 10pm to reduce cash-handling risks during peak Qurbani trading. Public Safety: A head-on bus–ambulance crash in Faridpur killed five. Violence & Justice: In Cox’s Bazar, a gun attack on a BNP leader at court premises left five injured. Local Health & Care: The government is also preparing a response package, including Vitamin A capsule procurement via UNICEF, as part of the measles fight. Viral Culture: A rare albino “Donald Trump” buffalo has become an Eid attraction, drawing crowds to a Narayanganj farm.
