A Bangladeshi training jet crash into the Milestone School killed 32 people, mostly children. The incident triggered widespread protests demanding accurate casualty counts and compensation. Authorities, including school management, are investigating the cause and tallying casualties, as many victims remain in critical condition in hospitals.

Grief and anger continued to grip Bangladesh as the death toll from a tragic jet crash climbed to 32, predominantly claiming the lives of children.

The F-7 BGI, a Chinese-built training fighter jet, crashed into a school building in Dhaka due to a 'mechanical fault' shortly after takeoff on Monday, leading to widespread student protests on Tuesday.

Authorities, including Milestone School's committee and the Bangladesh Air Force, are investigating the incident while protests urge transparency, accurate casualty figures, and victims' compensation.
