    5.7-Magnitude Earthquake Kills 8 in Bangladesh

    Health workers treat an injured 12-year-old boy at Dhaka Medical College Hospital after the earthquake, in Dhaka, Bangladesh, on 21 November 2025. Despite urgent efforts to save him, doctors later declared the child dead. A powerful earthquake measuring between 5.5 and 5.7 struck Dhaka late Friday morning, sending panic across the city as buildings shook and residents rushed into the streets. According to the Bangladesh Meteorological Department, the shallow quake—with an epicenter in Madhabdi, Narsingdi—caused significant jolts in the capital and surrounding districts. Emergency services reported several structural damages, including a collapsed rooftop railing in Armanitola and a tilted eight-story building in Swamibagh. International reports indicate that at least six people have died and dozens were injured as falling debris and damaged structures triggered chaos. Tremors were felt across central Bangladesh and parts of eastern India, including Kolkata. Dhaka, Bangladesh on November 21, 2025. Photo by Suv
