A devastating ferry terminal accident in Bangladesh has left the nation in shock after a passenger bus plunged into the Padma River during a routine boarding attempt. The bus, travelling from Rajbari towards Dhaka, lost control near the Daulatdia ferry terminal after a reported collision with a utility ferry, sending it crashing into the river within seconds. Eyewitnesses say the bus was carrying around 50 passengers, many of whom had boarded from multiple counters along the route. While a few managed to escape in the final moments before submersion, dozens were trapped inside as the vehicle sank rapidly beneath the surface. Scenes along the riverbanks turned emotional as families gathered, waiting desperately for news of their loved ones. The tragedy has already claimed over 20 lives, with the toll expected to rise as search operations continue. WATCH
