Bangladesh's military was in control of the country on Tuesday, August 6, after mass protests forced longtime ruler Sheikh Hasina to resign and flee. Hasina, 76, had been in power since 2009 but was accused of rigging elections in January and then watched millions of people take to the streets over the past month demanding she step down. Hundreds of people died as security forces sought to quell the unrest, but the protests grew and Hasina finally fled Bangladesh aboard a helicopter on Monday as the military turned against her. Bangladesh army chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman announced Monday afternoon, August 5 on state television that Hasina had resigned and the military would form a caretaker government.
