Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has resigned and fled the country following deadly clashes that have left over 300 people dead. Protesters stormed her official residence, Ganabhaban, as she and her sister, Sheikh Rehana, were flown to India for safety. The unrest, which began as peaceful protests over a government job quota system, turned violent after clashes at Dhaka University. Army chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman announced that an interim government would take control. The situation escalated further as security forces and ruling party activists clashed with protesters, resulting in a tragic surge in casualties across the nation.
