How tragic it is for a middle-class family, after a busy week, to go out for dinner on a Thursday evening with their loved ones, only to face such a horrific fate.
In two days (May 29-30), six successive mild earthquakes shook Sylhet city and its adjacent areas, leaving people panicking and running out into the streets.
The severe cyclonic storm Bulbul originated from the Bay of Bengal advancing with a speed of 140 kph and started dwindling when the mouth of the storm crossed the Sundarbans and hit the mangrove forest at a speed of 70-80 km per hour.
At least a dozen people died and many more were injured due to the impact of the cyclonic storm Bulbul in Bangladesh.
Their sufferings remind us of a verse from The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge: “Water, water, everywhere. But not a drop to drink.”
