Dual blasts rocked the Bangladeshi capital of Dhaka on Sunday when “cocktail" bombs targeted the party office of Citizen Party (NCP) and the home of an interim goverment adviser.
The first blasts targeted the residence of Syeda Rizwana Hasan, Adviser to the Ministries of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, and Water Resources, in the Central Road area of the capital city around 9:00pm (local time). Two crude bombs exploded outside Hasan’s home, though news outlet Prothom Alo said that no one was injured.
