Washington DC: Candlelight Vigil To Demand Justice In Bangladesh's Student Killings
The attendees are holding signs with the words ''Save Bangladeshi Students'' and other texts while attending the Bangladeshi community's candlelight vigil on August 03, 2024, in the National Mall, Washington DC, USA, to support the Anti-Discriminatory Students Movement in Bangladesh. In the vigil, participants are condemning the government for killing innocent and underage students. They are also demanding the resignation of the current prime minister Sheikh Hasina, who has been in power since 2009. Initially, the student movement started to reform the country's quota system for government jobs. But later, protests began in bloodshed, with more than 250 people killed, the majority by law enforcement agencies. (Photo by Aashish Kiphayet/NurPhoto)
