Three people, including a farmer, were killed in lightning strikes in Jessore and Gopalganj districts on Friday, reports UNB.
In Jessore, two people and a cow were killed at Nishchintpur village of Jhikargachha upazila after being struck by a thunderbolt.
The deceased are Yunus Ali, 25, son of Akbar Ali, and Jasimuddin, son of Tajuddin.
Masud Karim, officer-in-charge of Jhikargachha police station, said the lightning struck them while they were going to a field in the morning.
Comment: Chances are this was yet another commercial plane 'taken out' by the increasingly extreme weather on our planet, or, as a result of one of the many exploding space rocks that have been seen in our skies.
