At least 19 people died when a Bangladesh Air Force training jet crashed into a school campus building shortly after take-off.
Another 171 students were rescued, many suffering burns, from the smouldering two-storey building after the worst aviation incident in the country in recent memory.
Distressed locals and family members gathered at the campus as emergency crews worked to extinguish the blaze at the scene, and doctors at hospitals battled to treat dozens of badly burned children, some under the age of 12.  
Bangladesh’s government has announced a national day of mourning, with flags to fly at half-mast across the country.
