Bangladesh has experienced terrorism in the past conducted by a number of different organisations.[4][5] In the past, both ISIL and other terrorist organisations had claimed to be active in the country. However, the Bangladeshi government believes that they mainly operated through local affiliates, before being neutralised by security forces.
