Information Minister and Awami League Publicity and Publication Secretary Dr Hasan Mahmud says Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has spent a sleepless night to monitor super cyclone ‘Bulbul’.

State Minister for Disaster Management and Relief Dr Md Enamur Rahman says some 4,000-5,000 houses were damaged by cyclonic storm 'Bulbul' which lashed the country's coastal districts early today.

Two baby girls, who born at cyclone centres in Khulna and Patuakhali last night, have been named Bulbuli.

Five to seven feet high storm surge may hit the low-lying areas of the country’s coastal belt under the influence of the very severe cyclonic storm “bulbul” and the moon phase.
