Protests against the government's employment quota turned into riots in Bangladesh, killing 28 people.

Bangladesh's Supreme Court on Sunday overturned a 30 percent government employment quota for children of independence fighters that sparked protests across the country. At least 114 people have died as a result of public unrest in recent days.

At least 187 people were killed in the clashes. The curfew has been extended until Thursday, with the internet blacked out across the country. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina announced that the restrictive measures will continue until the situation improves.

In Bangladesh, professors, teachers and television workers protested to demand the release of students who were arrested for protesting against the allocation of public service quotas to relatives of independence fighters. Last month, at least 11,000 people were arrested during protests that left hundreds of victims.

India's opening of the dam caused large areas of Bangladesh to flood, creating a humanitarian crisis. This is said to be in response to recent attacks on Hindus in a neighboring country.
