At Least 254 Killed, Over 1,100 Injured In Israeli Attack In Lebanon

-
https://ift.tt/imWkTFE Hospitals in Beirut and across Lebanon are struggling to cope with hundreds of casualties after the Israeli military launched more than 100 air strikes within a 10-minute window. According to civil defence, at least 254 people have been killed and more than 1,100 injured, with the death count expected to rise as many remain in a critical condition. Rescuers are still working to reach those reported missing or trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings. This wave of air strikes, described as the largest since the outbreak of the war in Lebanon, began shortly after Donald Trump announced a 15-day ceasefire and negotiations with Iran aimed at finding peace in the Middle East. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that Lebanon is not included in the truce. Iran on Wednesday closed the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli attacks on Lebanon, the Associated Press reported. One of the first major strikes hit a cafe in Saida, killing eight...

-
Image
https://ift.tt/kQfUsmA The central government during a Supreme Court hearing on the Sabarimala issue on Wednesday questioned the relevance of public interest litigations (PILs) and asserted that it's time to remove them. In response, the Supreme Court indicated to the Centre that there was no need to go down that path as the courts are already cautious while receiving PILs. The Centre raised the matter after Supreme Court judge Justice BV Nagarathana asked why petitions filed by non-devotees have been admitted in the Sabarimala issue. The case is over a constitutional challenge - on the balance between women's rights and religious freedom - to the temple's ban on girls and women aged 10-50. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Centre, while arguing in reference to the Sabarimala case review petitions, urged the Supreme Court's nine-judge constitutional bench to go through his written submissions on the relevance of PILs. In written submissions filed in ...

-
https://ift.tt/LJkhlOY After a long wait, the teaser of Ramayana , starring Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, was released last week. The first glimpse into the world of the epic spectacle, directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra, led to a horde of reactions online-some positive, others not so much. While a section trolled Ramayana, mounted on a Rs 4,000 crore budget, over VFX quality, another was just not convinced about Ranbir Kapoor playing Rama. Namit Malhotra took to social media earlier today to thank everyone for the overwhelming response, and also reiterated how they are "listening closely and working diligently." The Post Namit Malhotra wrote, "Dear all, the response over the past few days has truly been overwhelming, inspiring, and humbling.

This is a story etched in the souls of ...

'Nothing Implies This, Buffoons': US Says Not Considering Nukes Against Iran

-
https://ift.tt/uxMtkhv US Vice President JD Vance warned Iran on Tuesday, hours before President Donald Trump's deadline ended at 8 pm EST (5.30 am IST), that America has "tools in our toolkit that we so far haven't decided to use". He expressed "hope", however, that negotiations would prevent their deployment. The reference to tools heightened fears that the US, which seems to be unsure about an end goal for the war, would use a nuclear weapon against Iran. An account associated with former vice president Kamala Harris also said Vance's remarks implied Trump "might use nuclear weapons". The White House took to X to quash the speculation and, in the same breath, insult those who thought it was a possibility. "Literally nothing @VP said here 'implies' this, you absolute buffoons," the White House's handle posted. Trump's Big Warning To Iran Earlier in the day, Trump had issued a big warning to Iran and said that the...

-
https://ift.tt/ItnJc61 Chennai Super Kings skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad provided a massive update on MS Dhoni at the toss during the IPL 2026 encounter against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Sunday.

He did not confirm whether Dhoni would be available for CSK's next game. "We will bowl first. Obviously, it's a high-scoring ground. Looks like a good pitch; there's going to be some runs.

The first game was disappointing, but our batting was much better in the second game. Everyone is f...
