Neutral summary
Bangladesh's Civil Aviation Authority (Biman/BEBIC) reported that flights between Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia were disrupted as Saudi airports restricted operations following Houthi attacks starting 10 October. Prothom Alo reported 126 direct and transit flights disrupted in ten days, affecting 19,377 passengers, with 59 direct and 67 transit flights. Jugantor, Dainik Sangbad and Daily Bangladesh reported later figures of 134 or 141 cancelled or suspended flights, affecting about 20,254 to 21,933 passengers, with Biman, US-Bangla, Saudia, Riyadh Air, IndiGo, Emirates, Qatar Airways and others involved. Dainik Sangbad said Riyadh airport was closed and Dammam was also attacked. Biman suspended Riyadh flights from 17 October indefinitely, and US-Bangla suspended Riyadh flights until 21 October, with Dammam flights planned to resume 21 October subject to airport approval. The authority said it was monitoring the situation and working to restore normal services.

Prothom Alo reports 126 disrupted flights and 19,377 passengers as of Monday, while Jugantor, Dainik Sangbad, Daily Bangladesh and Desh TV report 134 to 141 cancelled flights and 20,254 to 21,933 passengers from later dates, reflecting updated counts rather than conflicting accounts.

About this method
Method. Bias types follow the Table of Media Bias Elements and the Media Bias Taxonomy (both CC BY 4.0). The impartiality rules follow the BBC Editorial Guidelines and the Ofcom Broadcasting Code. The score is calculated from the seven answers, never generated.
What this is not. No outlet gets a standing bias rating, and there is no left/right axis, because that axis does not describe Bangladeshi politics. Each analysis covers one article about one event. Members' analytics count how each outlet's headlines were labelled over a chosen period, with the number of headlines behind every share, and also show the average score of an outlet's scored articles: that average describes those articles (mostly each story's lead), not the outlet, and outlets are never ranked by it or by any share.
Known limits. Headlines are grouped into stories automatically, so an unrelated headline sometimes slips in; it is shown faded rather than hidden. Where outlets carry the same wire copy, the comparison has little to show. Human annotators agree on bias in Bangla news only moderately (κ = 0.574 at best), which limits what any automated score can claim.
