Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who fled her country due to mass protests, is planning to seek asylum in the UK. Currently at Hindon Airbase in India, Hasina awaits clearance for her onward travel. Meanwhile, Bangladesh faces continued unrest, with Army Chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman set to meet student leaders to discuss forming an interim government. The protests, which led to Hasina's resignation, have resulted in over 300 deaths.

Israeli airstrikes killed three people in southern Lebanon on Monday, including two Hezbollah fighters, amid escalating cross-border violence. Hezbollah has traded near-daily fire with Israel since the October 7 Gaza war, vowing revenge for recent killings of their leaders. The strikes, targeting motorbikes and border villages, also caused a pregnant woman to miscarry. Israel claimed to have eliminated Hezbollah operatives involved in drone operations. Lebanon's health sector, already strained by an economic crisis, received emergency medical supplies from WHO as tensions threaten to escalate into full-blown conflict.

Amid the political upheaval in Bangladesh following Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's resignation, student leaders have proposed Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus to lead an interim government. Nahid Islam, Asif Mahmud, and Abu Bakar Mazumdar announced Yunus' name, emphasizing his international acclaim and wide acceptability. Yunus, awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006 for his work in microcredit, faces numerous legal challenges, including corruption charges. Despite these, his proposed leadership aims to stabilize the nation during this crisis.

Bangladesh President Mohammed Shahabuddin dissolved the Parliament after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled to India amidst violent student protests. Hasina, who arrived at Hindon airbase near Delhi, will remain in a safe house while determining her next steps. In response to the crisis, Bangladesh's Army Chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman announced the formation of an interim government, vowing to investigate the violence. India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi convened a cabinet meeting, emphasizing strong ties with Hasina. The BSF has heightened border security, suspending train services to Bangladesh. Hasina’s rival, Khaleda Zia, is set to be released from jail.

Hezbollah launched a drone attack on northern Israel, injuring two soldiers and sparking a fire in Ayelet HaShahar. The strike, which follows recent border skirmishes, is seen as a response to Israeli actions in southern Lebanon. The attack comes in the wake of the killing of a senior Hezbollah commander and Hamas's political leader. Israeli fire services are currently working to control the blaze ignited by the drone strike. Tensions continue to escalate in the region, raising concerns about a potential wider conflict.

Following last week's violent riots across the UK, several individuals appeared in court. The unrest, triggered by a knife attack in Southport, spread to cities including Liverpool and Manchester. Among the accused were a 14-year-old boy and a 69-year-old welder, both charged with violent disorder. Other notable cases included Derek Drummond, who admitted assaulting a police officer, and two brothers involved in arson at a library. The courts heard that the riots were fueled by misinformation shared by far-right agitators. Many of those charged have been remanded in custody ahead of their sentencing later this month.

Following the resignation and departure of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh President Mohammed Shahabuddin ordered the immediate release of former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia. The decision was announced during a meeting with opposition party members, including the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and Jamaat-e-Islami. Zia, a prominent opposition leader and long-time rival of Hasina, was jailed in 2018 on corruption charges. The release of Zia, along with others arrested during recent student protests, marks a significant shift in Bangladesh's political landscape amidst ongoing turmoil.

Australia, Nigeria, Malaysia, and Indonesia have issued travel warnings, advising their citizens to avoid the UK due to ongoing riots following the stabbing deaths of three young girls in Southport. The unrest, fueled by false rumors about the suspect's background, has led to widespread violence. Nigeria's Ministry of Foreign Affairs advised vigilance and avoidance of protest areas. Similarly, Australia's government urged caution, while Malaysia and Indonesia advised their citizens to stay informed and avoid large gatherings. The UK’s National Police Chiefs’ Council reported 378 arrests and promised a robust response to restore order.

There is significant uncertainty about Hasina’s asylum status in the UK, with no clear response from the British government on whether she will be granted asylum.
