Its occupants were taken hostage, and the attackers targeted foreigners or Muslims not deemed sufficiently devout. Twenty-two people were killed (18 of whom were foreigners), and 50 others were injured.[19][5][20] It was the largest extremist attack in Bangladesh since 1996.[21] The attackers discriminated between foreigners and Bangladeshi citizens, and (of the Bangladeshis) between fundamentalist and moderate Muslims. Those who could quote the Quran were spared and treated well, and those who could not were executed.[22] The attack was broadcast live to ISIL-affiliated social-media accounts with the bakery's WiFi.[23] Photos of the attackers in front of ISIL flags were displayed.[21] Bangladesh's prime minister denied ISIL involvement, attributing the attack to domestic militancy.
