Bangladesh is struggling to contain a new outbreak of violence linked to the Islamic State that threatens to stoke fears about investing in the fast-growing South Asian nation.
"?Head In The Sand?The militants holed up in the Sylhet building seemed "well-trained and equipped," and had planted improvised explosive devices around the building to block access inside, Ahsan told reporters on Sunday.
?The economic impact on Bangladesh could be substantial," said Amarnath Amarasingam, a senior research fellow at the London-based Institute for Strategic Dialogue.
Two militants were found with suicide vests strapped to their bodies, said Brigadier General Fakhrul Ahsan, a spokesman for Bangladesh army, at a media briefing on Monday night.
The army shot dead four militants, including a woman, in the security operation, which is ongoing.
