S21KD, korean operation cancelled

Members of the Korea DX Club had to cancel their operation from Dhaka due to a civil war that broke out in the city.

The KDXC team mentions that the "Situation is chaotic", and the team was going back to Korea. Unfortunately, the team's callsign S21KD was cancelled when they first arrived, and they tried to get a new license.

However, Friday and Saturday were holidays in Bangladesh.
They did get a new license on Sunday, S21ZCY, and moved to another location 2 1/2 hours away. The team hoped to be on the air that day but could not retrieve the radio gear from the airport. Safety was the team's first priority, so they cancelled and headed back home.

They hope to get another chance to operate from S2-land soon.
