Update: Milestone College Tragedy - Undeniable Brutality and a Hidden Truth

On the 21st of July, 2025, a jet (Bangladesh Air Force F-7 BGI) struck Milestone School and College in the Dhaka neighborhood of Uttara, killing uncountable students and revealing the cover-up by the military that is an abomination to humanity. The official statistics put the number of deaths at 31, but a harsh fact was delivered by the assistant captain, who is a student volunteer (class 12):the first people at the scene (the volunteers) identified more than 50 bodies or parts of bodies. The estimation of a scout of more than 400 bodies goes in line with the size of 30 classes with 30-34 students, which means that there is a disaster that the authorities are eager to avoid revealing. These are not what can be described as speculative figures; they are testimonies given by people who came face-to-face with the wreckage.

Military soldiers reacted brutally when the assistant captain and his rover mate wanted to tell the truth to journalists. Soldiers grabbed the assistant captain by the collar and beat him over the sticks until the kidney and the back swelled and the throat bruised because it was necessary to shut up the mouth. His principal, in coming to his rescue, was pushed and intimidated. Other students who had the courage to ask why the violence should happen were beaten up by the same hard objects, and their screams are lost in confusion. It is not a matter of crowd control but rather a conscious attack on truth, which was recorded by the audio testimony of the assistant captain, who was inpain and terror.

MileStone School Authority Message

The accusations are unimpeachable: soldiers beat a group of teenage volunteer activists with sticks because they publicized a death rate they could not cover up. They spread false information of 1-15 deaths as the bodies accumulated, and the campus was locked down, denying the media, among the rest, to cover the evidence. What is the point of teaching about 1960s jets in the year 2025, losing lives? Why assault students and not rescue them? This is not a mistake but a crime committed against the young people of a country.

The people should demand an independent investigation to unmask the real number of people killed, protection of witnesses, and fairness to those who are beaten into silence. Post the testimony of the assistant captain. Let Milestone's truth be heard around the world.
