A recent research by Noakhali Science and Technology University (NSTU) has detected high levels of microplastic in the salt collected from 12 salt-producing sites in Cox's Bazar and Chattogram.

Arifun Nahar gave birth to her 3rd child on December 16 at a private hospital in Dhaka but her baby boy fell sick soon after and eventually died 28 days after birth.
