Unidentified attackers hurled crude bombs at the home of a Christian family in Bangladesh on Tuesday leaving two people injured, police said, amid rising attacks on religious minorities in the Muslim-majority nation.

The attackers targeted the home just after midnight in the mainly Christian hamlet in Bangladesh’s western Chuadanga area, injuring 45-year-old Alam Mondol on his verandah.

Local villagers tried to chase away the attackers who retaliated by throwing more of the small, homemade bombs, injuring another man.
