Hamas warns of hostage risk amid Israeli air strikes on Gaza. Escalating conflict follows October attack, leading to rising civilian casualties.

Hamas Warns Israel Amid Intensifying Conflicts

Amid rising tensions, Hamas threatens hostages' lives if Israel continues air strikes on Gaza, following their October attack with significant casualties reported.

Hamas threatens hostages' lives if Israel pursues military offensives. Escalating air strikes disrupt fragile peace, raising civilian casualties.

Palestinian operator group Hamas warned on Wednesday that hostages may be killed if Israel attempts to retrieve them by force and air strikes continue in the Gaza Strip.
The group said in a statement that it was "doing everything possible to keep the occupation's captives alive, but the random Zionist (Israeli) bombardment is endangering their lives".
"Every time the occupation attempts to retrieve its captives by force, it ends up bringing them back in coffins," it said.
Israel restarted intense air strikes across the densely populated Gaza Strip last week followed by ground operations, shattering the relative calm afforded by a January ceasefire with Hamas.
Since Israel resumed its military operations in Gaza, at least 830 Palestinians have been killed, according to the health ministry in the Hamas-run territory.
The war was sparked by the operator group's October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, which resulted in the deaths of 1,218 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official figures.
Israel's retaliatory military offensive has killed at least 50,183 people in Gaza, mostly civilians, according to the health ministry.

Grieving mother confronts Noah Rentas, accused of her son's murder near Barclays Centre. Charges include second-degree murder.

Brooklyn Mother Confronts Murder Suspect

In a tragic encounter, a Brooklyn mother confronted Noah Rentas, accused of stabbing her son, Michael Hernandez, near Barclays Centre. Rentas faces serious charges following his arrest, as the community mourns and demands justice.

A grieving mother confronted Noah Rentas, accused of stabbing her son, Michael Hernandez, near Barclays Centre.

A grieving mother confronted the suspect accused of murdering her son in Brooklyn, posing the poignant question: "Why did you kill my son?" Her anguish was evident as she watched the suspect, in handcuffs, being led away from a police precinct on Tuesday, as reported by amNewYork Metro.
Noah Rentas, 18, a resident of South Slope, has been arrested and charged in connection with the fatal stabbing near the Barclays Centre earlier this month. Authorities tracked Rentas down to his home after he was reportedly identified through a student MetroCard used near the crime scene.
Police allege that Rentas stabbed 27-year-old Michael Hernandez during an assault by a group of teenagers at the intersection of Flatbush and Atlantic Avenues on March 14. The deadly encounter allegedly followed a verbal altercation, and Hernandez was pronounced dead at the scene.
According to the New York Post, Rentas faces charges of second-degree murder and fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon. He reportedly has no prior criminal record. Sources suggest that the murder might be linked to a larger series of robberies, although Hernandez was not robbed during the incident; it is speculated that the attempted robbery may have gone awry. Hernandez's family was present at the 78th Precinct in Brooklyn as Rentas was escorted from the station after his arrest.

Following backlash over Trump's Greenland purchase proposal, the U.S. has altered its visit plans. VP JD Vance will now focus on Pituffik Base, avoiding protests in Nuuk, underscoring diplomatic sensitivities in Arctic relations.

U.S. Adjusts Greenland Visit Amid Controversy

Amid backlash over Trump's proposal to buy Greenland, the U.S. has revised its visit strategy. VP JD Vance will limit activities to Pituffik Base, avoiding areas like Nuuk in response to protests, showcasing intricate diplomatic ties in the Arctic.

The U.S. has amended its Greenland visit plans following backlash over a purchase proposal. VP JD Vance will now focus only on Pituffik Base, avoiding Nuuk and Sisimiut due to protests, highlighting the delicate nature of Arctic diplomacy.

Following intense backlash over a proposal from former President Donald Trump to purchase Greenland, the United States has recalibrated its diplomatic approach toward the semi-autonomous Danish territory.
Initially intended to mark cooperation, the visit led by Second Lady Usha Vance has now been significantly altered amid Greenlandic discontent and international scrutiny.
The proposed acquisition of Greenland had been met with staunch resistance from the island's residents, who emphatically rejected the notion of becoming part of the United States.
The proposal sparked unprecedented protests across Greenland, with further demonstrations anticipated to coincide with Usha Vance's visit.
In light of these developments, the White House has announced a strategic alteration: Vice President JD Vance will now lead the delegation, but the visit will be confined to the U.S. Space and Military Base at Pituffik in northern Greenland. Originally, the itinerary included visits to Greenland&rsquo;s capital, Nuuk, and the renowned dog-sled race in Sisimiut, with Usha Vance accompanied by U.S. National Security Adviser Mike Walts and U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright.
Greenlandic officials criticized the original plan as inflammatory, with acting head of government Mute Egede deeming Usha Vance's visit a "provocation." Once considered close allies, the relationship between Greenland and the U.S. appears strained, as evidenced by Egede&rsquo;s remarks lamenting the loss of trust.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen also condemned the visit as undue pressure from Washington. Hours later, the White House confirmed its revised agenda&mdash;a move welcomed by Denmark.
"I think it's very positive that the Americans cancelled their visit to Greenlandic society," commented Danish Foreign Minister Lars L&oslash;kke Rasmussen. Despite relief from some quarters, criticism persists. Many argue the U.S. altered its plans to avoid the spectacle of protests that would greet representatives in Nuuk or Sisimiut. Karsten H&oslash;nge, a Danish Parliament member, suggested that fears of banners and chants of "Yankees go home" likely influenced Washington's decision.
While the U.S. delegation's stay will remain from Thursday, March 27 to Saturday, March 29, 2025, the change in plans underscores the complexity of international relations in the Arctic and the need for diplomatic sensitivity.

White House reassures public after a Yemen chat among officials was accidentally leaked, confirming it contained no classified information.

White House: Yemen Chat Was Non-Classified

Official statement confirms no classified information in leaked Yemen chat. White House reassures public on communication security.

The White House clarified that a mistakenly shared chat among officials about Yemen strikes was non-classified, easing public concerns.

The White House insisted Tuesday that no classified material was sent on a chat between senior officials about strikes on Yemen that was accidentally shared with a journalist.
President Donald Trump's Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a post on X that "no 'war plans' were discussed" and "no classified material was sent to the thread."

Rumors of a coup in Bangladesh amid political tension highlight military-government friction and possible leadership changes. Officials deny, but reports persist.

Rumors of Coup in Bangladesh Ignite Tensions

Rumors of a coup in Bangladesh fuel tension, linking Army Chief to potential moves amid denials by officials. International observers watch closely.

Amid political tension in Bangladesh, coup rumors linked to Army Chief General Zaman arise, despite denials from officials amid reports of military friction. Watching keenly.

Amidst rising political tensions in Bangladesh, rumors of a military coup have set social media abuzz. The speculation follows significant political developments and heightened military presence across the country, particularly in Dhaka.
Despite the swirling rumors, neither Professor Muhammad Yunus, currently serving as Bangladesh's interim leader, nor Army Chief General Waqar Uz Zaman has publicly addressed these claims.
General Zaman is at the center of these speculations, especially as Interim Leader Md Yunus faces continuous public protests. The Army Chief's recent meetings concerning national security have further fueled rumors of potential friction between military leadership and the government.
During these meetings, General Zaman reportedly emphasized the need for increased vigilance due to rising extremism within the country.
Nasimul Haque Gani, the Home Secretary of Bangladesh's interim government, has dismissed talk of a national emergency as mere "gossip."
However, Indian media outlets recently reported internal tensions within the Bangladeshi military, suggesting that General Zaman himself might be at risk of a coup by factions within the army with pro-Pakistani leanings. For the time being, it appears that General Zaman maintains control over the armed forces.
In recent speeches, General Zaman has hinted at failing law and order conditions and has advocated for stronger security measures in Dhaka.
These statements coincide with claims from Asaduzzaman Fuad, General Secretary of the student-led Aamar Bangladesh Party, who accused the Army Chief of conspiring with President Mohammed Shahabuddin to establish a new interim government.
Fuad's comments reflect the charged political atmosphere following the violent protests in July 2024, which escalated into a crisis resulting in the exile of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Reports of Fuad&rsquo;s potential arrest have intensified speculation about a possible military intervention. The Aamar Bangladesh Party, however, has denied such claims of arrest.
Adding to the fervor, a video from last month featuring the Army Chief&rsquo;s speech has resurfaced online. In it, General Zaman warns, "Later you will say I did not warn you, so I am warning you.
If you cannot forget your differences and work together, if you keep mudslinging at each other, fight each other, and kill each other, the country's and this community's freedom will go in vain."
The Army Chief further stated his intention to stabilize the country before stepping down: "I am telling you today, otherwise you will say that I did not warn you. I have no other intentions, I have only one intention. I want to take leave after placing the country and people in a good place.
I have had enough for the last seven to eight months. We want to place the country and people in a good place and return to the barracks," he asserted, as captured in clips circulated by Bangladeshi news portals.
As speculation continues, the situation in Bangladesh remains fluid, with international observers closely monitoring the developments in this beleaguered nation.

The CSIS warns of potential election interference by China and India using AI tactics amid deteriorating Canadian ties with both nations, exasperating geopolitical tensions.

Canada Election Interference Threat by China and India

The Canadian Security Intelligence Service alerts of election interference risks by China and India, stressing the use of AI and social media tactics amidst heightened geopolitical tensions.

CSIS warns China and India might interfere in Canada's election, particularly using AI. Tensions with both nations are escalating, implicating broader geopolitical strategies.

In a press briefing held on Monday, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) warned that China and India could potentially interfere in Canada's upcoming general election. The announcement comes as relations between Canada and these two nations continue to deteriorate.
Vanessa Lloyd, the Deputy Director of Operations at CSIS, addressed reporters regarding the snap election scheduled for April 28, recently called by Canada's new Prime Minister, Mark Carney. She highlighted concerns about "hostile state actors" employing artificial intelligence to meddle in the electoral process.
"The People's Republic of China (PRC) is expected to leverage AI technology to disrupt Canada's democratic proceedings during this election," said Lloyd.
Furthermore, she indicated that China might utilize social media platforms to push narratives favorable to Beijing's interests, specifically targeting Chinese ethnic, cultural, and religious communities within Canada through "clandestine and deceptive strategies."
Additionally, Lloyd stated that evidence suggests India has both the intent and capacity to interfere in Canadian communities and its democratic practices as part of its broader geopolitical strategy.
Both China and India have previously denied such interference allegations and have yet to respond to these new claims. In the past, India dismissed Canadian suggestions of election-related interference by foreign governments, labeling them as "insinuations."
In January, Canada's commission report suggested that New Delhi might have used proxy agents to clandestinely fund candidates from multiple political parties during a federal election.
India's Ministry of External Affairs rejected these claims and criticized Canada for meddling in its domestic affairs.
The Globe and Mail, a prominent Canadian newspaper, had reported allegations that India provided covert financial backing to politicians in Canada.
The CSIS briefing also touched on potential interference by Russia and Pakistan.
Lloyd indicated that Russia has been building networks on social media and news websites to propagate Kremlin-aligned narratives, which might be used to influence the Canadian electorate. Similarly, she voiced concerns that Pakistan could engage in interference activities to further its strategic goals, including promoting stability and countering India's global influence.
Strained Canada-India relations
Relations between Canada and India have been fraught, particularly since former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused New Delhi of involvement in the murder of Khalistani activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in September 2023.
India swiftly dismissed the claim as "absurd." Tensions escalated with the expulsion of Canadian diplomats and the recall of India's envoy following Canada&rsquo;s move to question Indian officials as persons of interest in the Nijjar case.
Canada-China relations have also soured, highlighted by China's recent imposition of tariffs on over $2.6 billion worth of Canadian agricultural products.
This move came in retaliation to earlier Canadian tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles and metal products.
With the election on the horizon, CSIS's warnings underscore the complex geopolitical challenges facing Canada and emphasize the need for vigilance in safeguarding its democratic processes.

Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump confirm their relationship on social media, marking a new chapter while requesting privacy amid growing public interest.

Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump confirm their relationship on social media

Tiger Woods has publicly confirmed his relationship with Vanessa Trump through social media, marking a rare glimpse into his personal life while requesting privacy.

Golf legend Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump have confirmed their relationship via social media, asking for privacy amid public interest.

Tiger Woods took the unusual step of confirming his romance with Donald Trump's former daughter-in-law on Sunday in a brief post on social media.
Golf superstar Woods -- renowned for jealously guarding his private life over the years -- confirmed in a post on X that he is dating Vanessa Trump, the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr.
"Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side," Woods wrote in a caption above two photos of himself relaxing with Vanessa Trump.
"At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts."
The post comes after weeks of tabloid rumors about the couple.
Vanessa Trump, who divorced Donald Trump Jr. in 2018 after a 13-year marriage, also posted a picture of her and Woods together on her Instagram account in what appeared to be a co-ordinated announcement.
Sunday's announcement would once have been unthinkable for Woods, who famously named his luxury yacht "Privacy".
Woods's private life was laid bare during the 2009 sex scandal that upended his career and led to the implosion of his six-year marriage to Elin Nordegren, the mother of his two children.
Nordegren and Woods separated amid revelations of the golf star's serial infidelity, with reports suggesting he had slept with as many as 120 women during his marriage.

The US Supreme Court will review Mumbai attack accused Tahawwur Rana’s plea against extradition to India. Rana argues health risks and possible torture, while former President Trump previously confirmed his extradition approval.

US Supreme Court justices to hear Tahawwur Rana's renewed application seeking stay of extradition to India

The US Supreme Court will review Mumbai attack accused Tahawwur Rana&rsquo;s plea against extradition to India. Rana argues health risks and possible torture, while former President Trump previously confirmed his extradition approval.

US Supreme Court justices will hear next month Mumbai terror attack accused Tahawwur Rana&rsquo;s renewed application, submitted to Chief Justice John Roberts, seeking a stay of his extradition to India.
Rana, 64, is currently lodged in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Los Angeles and submitted an "Emergency Application For Stay Pending Litigation of Petition For Writ of Habeas Corpus&rdquo; on February 27, 2025 with Elena Kagan, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States and Circuit Justice for the Ninth Circuit.
Earlier this month, Kagan had denied the application.&nbsp;
Rana had then renewed his "Emergency Application for Stay Pending Litigation of Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus previously addressed to Justice Kagan,&rdquo; and requested that the renewed application be directed to Chief Justice Roberts.
An order on the Supreme Court website noted that Rana&rsquo;s renewed application has been &ldquo;distributed for Conference of 4/4/2025&rdquo; and &ldquo;application&rdquo; has been &ldquo;referred to the Court.&rdquo;
Rana is known to be associated with Pakistani-American terrorist David Coleman Headley, one of the main conspirators of the 26/11 attacks.
Headley conducted a recce of Mumbai before the attacks by posing as an employee of Rana&rsquo;s immigration consultancy.
Rana was convicted in the US of one count of conspiracy to provide material support to the terrorist plot in Denmark and one count of providing material support to Pakistan-based terrorist organisation Lashker-e-Taiba which was responsible for the attacks in Mumbai.
New York-based Indian-American attorney Ravi Batra told PTI that Rana had made his application to the Supreme Court to prevent extradition, which Justice Kagan denied on March 6.
The application is now before Roberts, &ldquo;who has shared it with the Court to conference so as to harness the entire Court&rsquo;s view.&rdquo;
Batra added that he fully expects &ldquo;that in calmer times CJ Roberts would deny Rana the right to stay in America and avoid facing justice in India."
"During current times, with so many district judges blocking President Trump&rsquo;s domestic agenda changes...the Supreme Court will enjoy denying Rana more easily.&rdquo;
&ldquo;After President Trump and PM (Narendra) Modi met in the Oval, President Trump announced in the press conference that Rana will be extradited to India, to face his victims and his justice. The current posture is akin to a fish out of water, but moving around a lot to try to get back into American waters,&rdquo; Batra said.&nbsp;
Rana is seeking a stay of his extradition and surrender to India pending litigation (including exhaustion of all appeals) on the merits of a petition he filed on February 13.
In that petition, Rana argued that his extradition to India violates United States law and the United Nations Convention Against Torture "because there are substantial grounds for believing that, if extradited to India, the petitioner will be in danger of being subjected to torture."
&ldquo;The likelihood of torture in this case is even higher though as petitioner faces acute risk as a Muslim of Pakistani origin charged in the Mumbai attacks,&rdquo; the application said.
The application also said that his &ldquo;severe medical conditions&rdquo; render extradition to Indian detention facilities a &ldquo;de facto" death sentence in this case.&nbsp;
It cited medical records from July 2024 that confirm Rana has multiple &ldquo;acute and life-threatening diagnoses&rdquo;, including multiple documented heart attacks, Parkinson&rsquo;s disease with cognitive decline, a mass suggestive of bladder cancer, stage 3 chronic kidney disease, and a history of chronic asthma, and multiple COVID-19 infections.&nbsp;
&ldquo;Accordingly, petitioner certainly has raised a credible, if not compelling, factual case that there are indeed substantial grounds for believing he would be in danger of torture if surrendered to Indian authorities.&nbsp;
&ldquo;Further, because of his Muslim religion, his Pakistani origin, his status as a former member of the Pakistani Army, the relation of the putative charges to the 2008 Mumbai attacks, and his chronic health conditions he is even more likely to be tortured than otherwise would be the case, and that torture is very likely to kill him in short order.&rdquo;
The US Supreme Court denied Rana&rsquo;s petition for writ of certiorari relating to his original habeas petition on January 21, 2025.
The application notes that on that same day, newly-confirmed Secretary of State Marco Rubio had met with External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar.
When Prime Minister Modi arrived in Washington on February 12 to meet with Trump, Rana&rsquo;s counsel received a letter from the Department of State, stating that &ldquo;on February 11, 2025, the Secretary of State decided to authorize&rdquo; Rana&rsquo;s "surrender to India,&rdquo; pursuant to the &ldquo;Extradition Treaty between the United States and India&rdquo;.
Rana&rsquo;s Counsel requested from the State Department the complete administrative record on which Secretary Rubio based his decision to authorize Rana&rsquo;s surrender to India.
The Counsel also requested immediate information on any commitment the United States has obtained from India with respect to Rana&rsquo;s treatment.
&ldquo;The government declined to provide any information in response to these requests,&rdquo; the application said.
It added that given Rana&rsquo;s underlying health conditions and the State Department&rsquo;s own findings regarding the treatment of prisoners, it is very likely &ldquo;Rana will not survive long enough to be tried in India.&nbsp;
&ldquo;The issues raised by petitioner merit full and careful consideration, and the stakes are enormous for him. The very least the US courts owe the petitioner is a full chance to litigate these issues, including exercising their appellate rights, before he is consigned to the fate that awaits him at the hands of the Indian government,&rdquo; the application said.
It added that if a stay is not entered, there will be no review at all, and the US courts will lose jurisdiction, and &ldquo;petitioner will soon be dead.
Therefore, we respectfully request that this Court enter an Order staying the extradition and surrender of petitioner pending a full and considered hearing on petitioner&rsquo;s claims by the district court, circuit court, and, if necessary, a writ of certiorari to and further proceedings before this Court.&rdquo;
US President Trump, during a joint press conference with Prime Minister Modi in the White House last month, announced that Rana&rsquo;s extradition to India has been approved.
The Supreme Court justices are Associate Justice Clarence Thomas, Associate Justice &nbsp;Samuel A Alito, Jr, Associate Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Associate Justice Elena Kagan, Associate Justice Neil M Gorsuch, Associate Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, Associate Justice Amy Coney Barrett, and Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
A total of 166 people, including six Americans, were killed in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks in which 10 Pakistani terrorists laid a more than 60-hour siege, attacking and killing people at iconic and vital locations in Mumbai.

Las Vegas Tesla service center under attack with Molotovs and gunfire. FBI investigates potential terrorism. Vehicles damaged, but no injuries reported.

Tesla Facility Attacked: Molotovs 

A Tesla service center in Las Vegas was attacked with Molotov cocktails and gunfire. The FBI is investigating the incident as possible terrorism. While several vehicles were damaged, there were no injuries. Investigations continue.

A Tesla Las Vegas service center experienced Molotov cocktail and gunfire attacks with no injuries. The incident, involving five damaged vehicles and the word 'resist' on doors, is being treated as terrorism. The FBI and police continue investigations.

In a concerning escalation of violence, multiple Tesla vehicles were set ablaze and shot at during an overnight attack at a Las Vegas service center, as reported by CNN.
This incident, which took place at the Tesla Collision Center, resulted in damage to at least five vehicles, with two fully engulfed in flames. The FBI is currently investigating, noting that the attack exhibits "some of the hallmarks" of terrorism.
Authorities revealed that the suspect employed Molotov cocktails and fired gunshots at the vehicles.
Additionally, the word "resist" was spray-painted on the front doors of the facility. The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force is collaborating with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department to identify those responsible for the attack.
In a Tuesday news conference, Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department stated, "This was a targeted attack against a Tesla facility. Officers discovered several vehicles on fire, as well as the word &lsquo;Resist' spray-painted on the front doors of the business."
Surveillance footage from the scene shows vehicles erupting in flames as a suspect dressed in black moves between the cars, occasionally reaching into a bag.
Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and the fire department managed to extinguish the fires before they reached the vehicles' batteries.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk condemned the attack, describing it as "terrorism" and denouncing the level of violence as "insane and deeply wrong."
In a statement, he asserted, "Tesla just makes electric cars and has done nothing to deserve these evil attacks."
This incident aligns with a troubling trend of assaults on Tesla facilities and vehicles across the United States, including instances of vandalism, graffiti, and shootings.
President Trump has condemned the spate of attacks, advocating for them to be classified as domestic terrorism.
US Attorney-General Pamela Bondi has similarly denounced the recent attacks on Tesla properties, characterizing them as "nothing short of domestic terrorism." She emphasized the severity of the situation, stating, "We will continue investigations that impose severe consequences on those involved in these attacks, including those operating behind the scenes to coordinate and fund these crimes."
The investigation remains active as authorities strive to bring those accountable to justice.

Google settles for $28 million in a class action lawsuit alleging pay discrimination against minority employees in California.

Google's $28M Discrimination Settlement

Google agrees to a $28 million settlement over a discrimination lawsuit alleging unequal pay practices affecting over 6,600 minority employees in California.

Google settles a $28 million lawsuit over alleged pay discrimination favoring white and Asian employees, impacting over 6,600 California workers.

In a significant legal development, Google has agreed to a $28 million settlement to resolve a class action lawsuit alleging racial discrimination in pay and career advancement opportunities. The lawsuit accused the tech giant of favoring white and Asian employees over minority workers in terms of salary and career positioning.
The legal action was spearheaded by Ana Cantu, identified as a Mexican racially indigenous individual, who represented a diverse group of minority communities, including Hispanic, Latino, and Native American employees at the corporation.
The settlement was given the green light by Judge Charles Adams of California's Santa Clara County Superior Court last week. Judge Adams described the agreement as "fair and reasonable," declaring it a positive outcome for the class of 6,632 Google employees who worked in California between February 15, 2018, and December 31, 2024.
Despite reaching a settlement, Google maintained its stance against the claims. A company spokesperson stated, "We continue to disagree with the allegations that we treated anyone differently and remain committed to paying, hiring, and leveling all employees fairly."
Cantu, who resigned from Google in September 2021, argued that despite her seven years of exemplary service, she remained stagnant in her role while white and Asian colleagues received promotions and higher pay. She also claimed that minority employees performing equivalently were assigned lower job "levels," and that those who raised concerns faced obstacles in career advancement.
She contended that these actions violated the California Equal Pay Act, prompting her to leave the company.
The final settlement amount allocates $20.4 million to affected employees after accounting for $7 million in legal fees, penalties related to Cantu's claim under California's Private Attorneys General Act, and other associated costs.

Man’s wild encounter with lion in South Africa goes viral | Watch

A lion sneaked up on a man during a safari in South Africa. While the man was surprised, he remained calm, and the encounter ended without incident.

A rare moment was caught on camera during a safari in South Africa. A tracker, sitting on the car&rsquo;s bonnet, was taken by surprise as a lion sneaked up on him. The man seemed to be completely unaware of the lurking big cat, which made eye contact with him.
The man continued to remain calm during the encounter. He kept sitting on the tracker seat, holding on to his binoculars.&nbsp;
Another video of the same incident showed that an entire pride of lions was present around the tourist buggy. &nbsp;At least four lion cubs were also seen in the video.
The video of the wild encounter has gone viral with more than 21 million views and nearly 2 million likes.

A 7.7 magnitude earthquake in Myanmar has resulted in over 1,700 deaths. Damaged infrastructure and ongoing civil conflict have hindered relief efforts.

Myanmar Earthquake: 1,700 Dead, Rescue Challenges

The severe earthquake in Myanmar has led to over 1,700 casualties. With ongoing rescue operations, damaged infrastructure hampers aid distribution amid persistent civil unrest.

Myanmar's 7.7 magnitude earthquake claims over 1,700 lives, causes infrastructure damage, and disrupts relief efforts.

The death toll from the earthquake that hit Myanmar has risen to more than 1,700 as more bodies have been pulled from the rubble, the country&rsquo;s military-led government said Monday.
Government spokesman Maj. Gen. Zaw Min Tun told state-run MRTV that another 3,400 have been injured and more than 300 were missing.
He did not provide more specific figures. The 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit at midday Friday, causing widespread damage, including in the capital Naypitaw and the second largest city, Mandalay.
The earthquake, whose epicenter was near Mandalay, brought down scores of buildings and damaged other infrastructure like the city&rsquo;s airport. Relief efforts have been hampered by buckled roads, downed bridges, spotty communications and the challenges of operating in a country engaged in a civil war.
In neighboring Thailand, the quake rocked much of the country and killed at least 18 people, many at a construction site in Bangkok where a partially built high-rise collapsed.

President Trump warns Iran of possible bombing and sanctions if the nuclear deal isn't accepted. Iran rejects direct talks but opens the door for indirect negotiations. Tensions rise as the US seeks to curb Iran's nuclear ambitions.

Trump-threatens-iran-with-bombing-tariffs-if-nuclear-deal-not-reached

US President Donald Trump on Sunday threatened Iran with "possible bombing" as well as the imposition of secondary tariffs on the Islamic Republic if they do not comply with the nuclear deal proposed by the US.

Trump warns of bombing if Iran rejects US nuclear deal within weeks. Iran open to indirect talks.

US President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Iran, threatening "possible bombing" and the imposition of secondary tariffs if the nation fails to agree to a nuclear deal proposed by the US. During an interview with NBC News, Trump indicated that Iran has a couple of weeks to comply, otherwise facing severe consequences. "If they don't make a deal, there will be bombing like they've never seen before," Trump asserted, emphasizing the potential for secondary tariffs if progress isn't made. Despite the tough rhetoric, Trump added a hopeful note, suggesting he prefers a peaceful resolution and envisages a "great, long, and successful life" for Iran, should they accept the agreement. "I would prefer a deal to the alternative, which everyone knows would not be pretty," he remarked. In contrast, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced that Iran has rejected the prospect of direct talks with the US, though leaving the door open for indirect negotiations, as reported by Politico. The tension between the two nations has escalated since Trump resumed office, largely due to his administration's stance against Iran obtaining nuclear weapons. Trump's prior term saw the US's withdrawal from a collective 2015 nuclear agreement, which also involved several major world powers, citing non-compliance by Tehran.

The Yemen War Plan Leak unveils U.S. strike strategies after a security breach. This incident, likened to historical leaks like Snowden's, underscores the need for improved information security.

US Yemen Strike Plans Leak: Major Intelligence Breach

A major security breach exposed U.S. strike plans in Yemen, similar to past leaks like Snowden's. This highlights ongoing challenges in protecting classified data, emphasizing the need for robust security measures.

A significant security breach exposed U.S. strike plans in Yemen. Mistakenly adding an editor to a private chat revealed classified info, echoing past leaks like Snowden's and WikiLeaks. This incident highlights the need for robust information security.

In a stunning breach of national security, a routine discussion among top U.S. officials inadvertently led to one of the most significant intelligence leaks in recent history.
This blunder, now known as the Yemen War Plan Leak, revealed sensitive U.S. strike strategies, weapons shipments, and operations against Houthi rebels in Yemen.
The incident unfolded when senior Trump administration officials mistakenly added Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, to a private Signal group chat.
Mr. Goldberg had unintended access to real-time discussions on U.S. military plans and subsequently published the highly classified details.
The Yemen War Plan Leak parallels other major U.S. intelligence breaches, such as the Pentagon Papers, Snowden's NSA disclosures, and the WikiLeaks revelations.
Historical Context: Notable Intelligence Leaks
The Hutchinson Letters (1772): Before American independence, Benjamin Franklin leaked letters from Massachusetts Governor Thomas Hutchinson, disclosing the governor's support for an increased British military presence in the colonies. This fueled revolutionary sentiments among colonists.
The Pentagon Papers (1971): Daniel Ellsberg, a RAND Corporation analyst, leaked a secret government report that revealed decades of public deception about the Vietnam War. Published by The New York Times, the Pentagon Papers exposed how U.S. officials misled the public. Though initially charged with espionage, Ellsberg's case was dismissed in 1973, and he is now hailed as a prominent whistleblower.
WikiLeaks (2010): U.S. Army analyst Chelsea Manning disclosed thousands of classified military and diplomatic documents to WikiLeaks, uncovering civilian casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan. Among the leaks was a shocking video showing a U.S. Apache helicopter attack resulting in civilian deaths, including two Reuters journalists. Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison but was pardoned by former President Barack Obama in 2017 after serving seven years.
The NSA Leaks (2013): Edward Snowden, a former NSA contractor, exposed extensive global surveillance programs that collected citizens' data without their awareness. His revelations, published by The Guardian and The Washington Post, highlighted the scale of government spying. Charged with espionage, Snowden fled to Russia, where he resides in exile, advocating for privacy rights and press freedom.
The Russia Election Leak (2017): Reality Winner, an NSA translator, leaked a classified report on Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election to The Intercept. Detectives traced the leak to her, resulting in a more than four-year prison sentence in 2017. Winner later expressed that the public deserved to know the truth about Russian meddling. Her story inspired the 2023 film "Reality," starring Sydney Sweeney, which accurately follows her real FBI interrogation transcript.
The Watergate Scandal (1972-1974): While not a typical intelligence leak, the Watergate scandal involved the exposure of illegal activities, including the burglary of the Democratic National Committee headquarters, alongside subsequent cover-ups by President Richard Nixon's administration. Investigative journalism was pivotal in revealing the truths that ultimately led to Nixon's resignation.
Each of these incidents underscores the ongoing challenges of safeguarding classified information and the profound impact such disclosures can have on public trust and international relations.

A 7.7-magnitude quake in Myanmar caused widespread destruction, with tremors felt across Asia. Major structural damage and urgent rescue efforts are ongoing.

7.7 Quake Shakes Myanmar, Affects Asia

The powerful earthquake devastated central Myanmar and sent shockwaves across Asia, impacting cities and leading to significant damages and casualties.

A 7.7-magnitude earthquake in Myanmar caused significant devastation and panic across Asia, with extensive damage and urgent rescue efforts ongoing.

A catastrophic 7.7-magnitude earthquake rocked central Myanmar on Friday, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake and causing widespread panic across neighboring regions.
The earthquake's epicenter was located just 18 kilometers from the city of Sagaing, striking at 12:50 pm local time.&nbsp;
In Myanmar, the death toll has risen to at least 20, with a 1,000-bed hospital overwhelmed by the influx of casualties, described by news agency AFP as a "mass casualty area." As rescue operations intensify, the nation grapples with the enormity of the disaster.
The quake sent shockwaves as far as Bangkok in northern Thailand, where alarming scenes unfolded, including skyscrapers visibly shaking and water cascading from an infinity pool hundreds of feet to the ground.
Bangkok has declared a state of emergency, and videos have surfaced on social media platform X, showing the chaos. One particularly harrowing clip captures the complete collapse of an under-construction skyscraper, with up to 78 people reported missing. Three fatalities have been confirmed at the site.
In another video, chandeliers swayed violently in a conference room at Bangkok's Athenee Hotel, highlighting the quake's pervasive reach. Meanwhile, in Myanmar's Mandalay, footage reveals a partially collapsed residential building precariously supported by an adjacent structure.
Tragically, an old bridge over the Irrawaddy River succumbed to the quake's force, adding to the region's infrastructural devastation.
During the earthquake, a team of AFP journalists at the National Museum in Naypyidaw reported scenes of chaos, as pieces fell from the ceiling, walls cracked, and staff hurriedly evacuated the premises in tears, attempting to reach loved ones.
The seismic activity extended beyond Myanmar, with minor tremors felt in Kolkata and parts of Manipur in India, as well as Dhaka and Chattogram in Bangladesh, according to the Press Trust of India (PTI). Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has extended offers of assistance in the aftermath of the quake.
Earthquakes are not uncommon in Myanmar, as its location near the Sagaing Fault makes it susceptible to significant seismic events. Historical records note six major earthquakes of 7.0 magnitude or higher occurring between 1930 and 1956.
More recently, a 6.8-magnitude quake in 2016 struck Bagan, leading to the deaths of three individuals and damaging historic temples.
Myanmar's limited medical infrastructure, particularly in its rural areas, adds to the country's challenges as it attempts to respond to this latest disaster. As rescue efforts continue, regional support and international assistance may prove vital in the days ahead.

Russia and India are set to enhance strategic ties with Putin's upcoming visit. Discussions will focus on bilateral trade expansion and the new economic roadmap for 2030.

Putin Visit to Elevate Russia-India Relations

Putin's upcoming visit to India aims to elevate Russia-India strategic ties. Discussions include trade boost, economic plans, and partnership renewal.

Russia and India are enhancing their strategic alliance as Putin plans an official visit to India. Major topics include a new economic roadmap and bilateral trade expansion.

Russia and India are poised to elevate their bilateral relationship to unprecedented levels, as Russian President Vladimir Putin prepares for an official visit to India.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov announced the impending visit during a televised address, highlighting the meticulous preparations underway for this significant diplomatic engagement.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi prioritized Russia for his first international visit after securing his third consecutive term. Now, it is our turn to reciprocate," Lavrov remarked, underscoring the deepening ties between the two nations.
While the precise date of President Putin's visit remains unspecified, Lavrov confirmed that arrangements are actively being made.
During Prime Minister Modi's visit to Russia last year, an invitation was extended to President Putin for an official state visit to India, which the Russian leader accepted.
Lavrov reiterated this development during a conference titled "Russia and India: Toward a New Bilateral Agenda," organized by the Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC).
This forthcoming visit marks President Putin's first trip to India since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine in February 2022. Central to the visit will be discussions on President Putin's "new economic roadmap" for 2030.
A key objective for both nations is to double their bilateral trade to exceed $100 billion annually, up from the current level of approximately $60 billion.
India and Russia are also focusing on expanding trade routes, including the vital Chennai-Vladivostok maritime trade corridor, which will facilitate increased supply exchanges.&nbsp;
Earlier this week, Lavrov confirmed Russia's aspiration to redefine its partnership with India, envisioning a "special and privileged strategic partnership."
In a message to Indian President Droupadi Murmu, President Putin emphasized the foundational strength of Russia-India relations and expressed confidence in enhancing cooperative efforts across various sectors.
He stated, "These efforts align with our aim to establish a fair, multi-polar international order, benefiting the fundamental interests of our friendly peoples."&nbsp;
This engagement signals a renewed commitment to deepening bilateral cooperation amid a dynamically evolving global landscape.
