Tension simmered across Bangladesh on Wednesday (November 12, 2025) as crude bomb and arson attacks rocked Dhaka and other parts of the country ahead of a special tribunal’s announcement of the verdict date against deposed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

Unidentified assailants set fire to a branch office of Muhammad Yunus-founded Grameen Bank in eastern Brahmanbaria early in the day. Later, an abandoned railway carriage was torched at Dhaka railway station amid a series of low-intensity blasts across the capital.
