Petrol bombs were hurled Sunday at the Dhaka-Kolkata Maitree Express train in Bangladesh amid a violent BNP-sponsored countrywide blockade.
No casualty was reported in the incident near the Iswardi railway station in Pabna of Rajshahi division, BdNews24 reported citing police.
Railway official Humayun Kabir said three bombs were lobbed at the Dhaka- bound train as soon as it reached a loco shed after leaving the Iswardi station.
The attack caused minor damage as the bombs exploded under the wheels of the train's engine, he said.
Earlier, BNP called a 72-hour nationwide strike from Sunday morning against the "arrest and killing" of its leaders and activists.
