Bangladeshis denounce US for assassinating Iran’s Soleimani

People in Bangladesh have protested the United States’ assassination of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani.

According to Press TV, the protesters held banners and chanted slogans against the US and its interventionist policies in the Bangladeshi capital of Dhaka on Friday.

“This America killed our beloved brother, top Iranian General Qassem Soleimani, in Baghdad,” said Ashraful Haq, a protester. “I want to say to the people of Bangladesh that America and Israel are the enemy of Muslims.”

The demonstrators also praised Soleimani for his role in fighting the Takfiri Daesh terrorist group, which had once swept over large parts of Iraq and Syria but which lost the territories in operations under the command of Lt. Gen. Soleimani.

“Qassem Soleimani is the reason Daesh got destroyed in Iraq and Syria,” read a placard held by the demonstrators.
