Twelve Dead in Bangladesh Lightning Strikes
(MENAFN) At least 12 people lost their lives Saturday after a wave of lightning strikes tore through six districts across Bangladesh, authorities confirmed.
The bulk of the fatalities were recorded in rural communities, where victims were caught in the open while working their agricultural fields, according to local sources.
Lightning-related deaths are a recurring seasonal hazard in Bangladesh during this period, as the country transitions from its dry winter months into the intense heat and storms of the summer monsoon season.
Fatality figures from recent years point to a deepening crisis — data indicates that deadly lightning incidents have been climbing at an alarming rate across the nation, raising urgent questions about preparedness and early-warning systems in vulnerable rural communities.
