Bangladesh to dissolve parliament
News summary

In a dramatic turn of events, Bangladesh's Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled to India amid weeks of violent protests that have claimed around 300 lives, marking the end of her 15-year tenure. Following her departure, President Mohammed Shahabuddin announced plans to dissolve Parliament and form an interim government to facilitate early elections. This decision was made after a meeting with opposition leaders, where they agreed to release former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia and all prisoners detained during the protests. The army has lifted a curfew and pledged to restore normalcy, urging the public to remain patient. Hasina is reportedly seeking political asylum in the UK. The swift political changes come as citizens assert control over the streets of Dhaka, reminiscent of past revolutionary moments in the region.
