On July 21, 2025, a training aircraft from a Bangladesh Air Force base in Dhaka crashed shortly after takeoff in the Uttara neighborhood.
Emergency responders worked to clear charred debris hours after the incident, with no survivors located.
Protests erupted as students and families called for accountability, clashing with police over the delayed release of the investigation report.
A government-commissioned report submitted in November highlighted critical failures, including non-compliance with building codes at the school and structural violations near Dhaka’s airport.
The report concludes the pilot lacked adequate training and supervision, and no mechanical failure occurred, contradicting earlier military statements.
The Bangladesh Armed Forces did not comment on the findings.
Survivor advocates, including Mansur Helal, widow of a victim, criticized the school’s single entrance for 800-900 students, calling for urgent structural reforms.
The family also demands the full report’s release, along with compensation and improved medical support for affected individuals, as recommended in the report but not yet implemented.
