Star Online Report

Security forces have launched an offensive to end an unprecedented hostage crisis at a restaurant in the diplomatic zone of Bangladesh capital, Dhaka, this morning.

Gunshots and heavy sound of explosion were heard as a concerted operation at Holey Artisan Bakery on Road No. 79 in Gulshan began at 7:40am, our correspondents covering the event reported.

“Law enforcers have rescued 13 people,” Tuhin Md Masud, commanding officer of Rapid Action Battalion-1, told journalists.

- Troops storm café 11 hours into the hostage crisis began

- 2 police officers dead so far

- 20 believed to be held hostage

- Foreigners among hostage

The whole neighbourhood was rocked as the skirmish continued for 15 minutes without almost no break.

“With the rattling sound of gunshots and sound grenades, we heard cries of a large number of people coming from the direction of the café,” said Daily Star correspondent Prabir Barua Chowdhury.

There was a respite in the frequency of gunshots and explosion after 7:55am. Sporadic gunshots were heard again between 8:03am and 8:15am.

Why are they covering up death Toll. If they rescued 11 then does that mean almost 20 are dead?

You have also been quoting social media, which have no credibility, to suggest a false flag.

Anyway let's focus on the sad matter at hand.

I quote from social media because the news media is heavily censored and under the complete control of the AL and RAW. What is available on social media is often far more reliable than the news media in Bangladesh.

thousands of people were recently arrested,maybe it is a reaction

Interesting on how you decide on who can speculate and who cannot and what is legitimate and what is not ...

bd is getting radicalized fast, these kinds of attack will surely hit bd economy. Either bd govt. has to make sure to cleanse the nation of these radicals or bd will lose billions of dollars of gdp.
