Bangladesh arrests 1,308 in nationwide crackdown on violence

Bangladesh's security forces have arrested 1,308 people in a nationwide operation called "Operation Devil Hunt." This crackdown aims to address rising violence and vandalism following an attack on an Awami League leader's home that injured student activists. The operation was initiated in response to escalating tensions and calls for restoring order from various political groups, including the party of former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia. Authorities are focusing on reducing unrest as the situation in the country remains volatile.
