Minority communities in Bangladesh have been the victims of violent attacks in Bangladesh by extremists since February 28, 2013. More than 1,000 homes and nearly 100 places of worship were attacked over the past few days. Many died, succumbing to their injuries, and homes, temples and institutions have been burned down. Your support for these communities is very necessary now.
