Bangladesh to observe one-day state mourning for Palestinians killed in occupier Israeli airstrikes
On Thursday, Bangladesh announced a one-day state mourning for Palestinians killed in occupier Israeli airstrikes in Gaza and other parts of the Palestinian territories.
A government statement said the mourning would be held on Saturday, October 21. On that day, the national flag will be flown at half-mast at all government, semi-government, autonomous, and educational institutions, as well as at all government and private buildings and Bangladesh missions abroad.
On Friday, special prayers were held at mosques and other religious institutions across Bangladesh for the victims of the occupier Israeli airstrikes.
On October 7, Palestinian militants fired rockets into Israel, triggering a wave of occupier Israeli airstrikes on Gaza. The occupier Israeli airstrikes have killed hundreds of Palestinians, including many women and children.
At least 500 people were killed in an occupier Israeli airstrike on a hospital in Gaza City. The occupier Israeli airstrikes continue, killing Palestinians on a daily basis.
