Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina resigned from the post and fled Dhaka by helicopter in the face of mass protests demanding her resignation. Bangladesh’s army chief Waker-Uz-Zaman announced that Hasina had resigned and the military would form an interim government. Sheikh Hasina and her sister have reportedly been taken to a “safe shelter” away from her official residence. Meanwhile, Hasina’s son urged the country’s security forces to block any takeover from her rule as thousands of protesters demanded she quit. Reports claim as many as 400,000 protesters were on the streets of Bangladesh.
