Earlier on Wednesday, the US Bureau of Diplomatic Security warned of possible new terrorist attacks in Bangladesh after the deadly attack in a Dhaka restaurant.
The attack came just a week since on July 1, a group of armed terrorists took dozens hostage inside the restaurant located in a diplomatic quarter of the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka. The attack left 20 people, mostly foreigners, dead, while 13 hostages were rescued by the country's security forces.
