Fascism has ended in Bangladesh. Bangladesh has won. But dear people, calm down! In the past one month we have experienced enough destructions and bloodbath. We don't want anymore. Stop the madness. Go back home. Relax. Let us all unite to build a new Bangladesh.

New video statement by UN High Commissioner of Human Rights on #Bangladesh. "Today I am calling on the Bangladesh Government urgently to disclose full details about last week's crackdown on protests amid growing accounts of horrific violence. It is imperative that the Government provides the details of those killed, injured or detained for the benefit of their families. The government must also restore, without, delay, full internet access to allow all people including journalists and media outlets to communicate freely and in line with international law. I call on the government to conduct an impartial, independent and transparent investigation into all alleged human rights violations. My office stands ready to support the government in this regard."
#Bangladesh: @volker_turk calls on authorities to urgently disclose information on protests crackdown amid reported cases of horrific violence. Estimates indicate over 170 people killed & thousand injured. Law enforcement operations must abide by international human rights law.

This is such sad news
I just heard that Dr. Saleemul Huq passed away in Dhaka. Still can't believe this. What a loss for Bangladesh, the world and the climate advocates. This one is a personal loss! We have spent so much time strategizing together. How will I get over this?
