Curfew extended in Bangladesh as top court set to rule on job quotas that sparked deadly unrest

Bangladeshi authorities extended a nationwide curfew amid ongoing clashes and protests over a civil service hiring quota system. At least 103 protestors have been reported dead. Demonstrators oppose the system, which reserves government jobs for veterans' relatives. The Supreme Court was set to rule on the issue, prompting soldiers to patrol cities and an internet blackout.
