Animal sacrifices marking Eid Al Adha combined with heavy rains transformed the streets of Dhaka into rivers of blood.
The capital city’s two corporations had designated locations to slaughter animals, the locations were not used due to heavy downpour from the night before. People sacrificed their animals in their garages, alleys or streets resulting in what looked like rivers of blood.
