Published

on



All 41 construction workers who became trapped in a tunnel in northern India after a landslide on 12 November have been rescued.

None of the men are thought to have been injured, but the group are being given medical checks at a nearby hospital.

They were extracted one by one via a pipe 90cm (3ft) in diameter, which was inserted through the rubble of the collapsed tunnel in Uttarakhand state.

    |ndia should find the honesty/integrity to thank and compensate White Aussie guy, Arnold Dix, for helping them with their rescue mission. |ndia should also stop claiming all the credit for the success of the rescue team and mention white Aussie guy, Arnold Dix, in all their social medias reporting on the rescue mission. Do not be an |ngrate.😏🤭 1 billion 🟫|ndians couldn't rescue 41 trapped |ndians, yet, 1 white Aussie guy did it. Before you run your mouth, he's the one who planned on how to get them out which is major role buddy, without planning you cannot blind do something and make it even worse. 😏🤣😂🙂 That is why | Q is important.🤭

    Why did they drill for the tunnel in the first place despite the opposition from geologists? Of course, this would be brushed under the carpet weeks from now like the Balasore train accident.

    |ndians are very sneaky and thieving people. By orchestrating this little Bollywood drama showing the entire world that they have 41 people trapped in the tunnels, they garnered pity/sympathy from countries all the world, and thus the valid excuse to request help from foreign agencies and force them to reveal their trade secrets or technology relating to tunnelling. That's how |ndia steals technology and trade secrets for free 🤭

    BBC does reports without any basic info. They were not able to make calls because underneath there was no signal, They were only able to connect with Walkie-Talkie

    Does anyone know where can I watch the BBC's video on the "2002 Gujarat massacre"? I know it was banned on Youtube by the-very-insecure-and-always-hiding |ndia but are there anywhere else on the internet whereby I can watch that? eg. |ndia had banned the "Neville Maxwell and Henderson Brooks report on the China-|ndia 1962 war", citing "national security" on year 2014 when the report was leaked momentarily on the internet.

Can Nato survive without the US? | The Security Brief

Published

on



US President Donald Trump has repeatedly threatened to leave Nato, the world’s largest military alliance encompassing 32 member nations across North America and Europe.

This week The Security Brief looks at the ramifications of that scenario – what the alliance would lose, and crucially what the US would be giving up in power projection, nuclear defence and crucial military intelligence.

Analysis from Christian Fraser and former Senior Officer in the British Military, Mikey Kay.

Why the Makerfield by-election could bring down Starmer | BBC News

Published

on



People in Makerfield made up 0.1% of the vote at the last general election. Now – they’re potentially choosing the next prime minister.

In the most consequential by-election in decades, 14 candidates are standing to become an MP for the north-west England seat.

The two main front-runners are Labour’s Andy Burnham and Reform UK’s Rob Kenyon.

Burnham has said that if elected, he would seek to enter any Labour leadership contest to replace Keir Starmer in Downing Street.

BBC Journalist Kirsty Grant headed to Makerfield to explain how we got here.

US strikes Iran in response to downing of military helicopter | BBC News

Published

on



The US says it has carried out a series of strikes on Iranian military and surveillance sites in response to the downing of an American helicopter in the Gulf.

Air defence systems, ground control stations and radar sites were targeted near the Strait of Hormuz, the US military Central Command (Centcom) said.
In response, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it launched strikes on 21 targets at US bases in the region, one in Bahrain and the other in Jordan, while Kuwait’s army said it was also intercepting an attack.

The US has described its strikes as “a proportional response” for the Apache helicopter downing on Monday, while the IRGC described the attacks as “vicious”.

US President Donald Trump had earlier accused Iran of shooting down the helicopter and said the US “must, of necessity” respond. The two crew members survived and were rescued by an American sea drone.

US and Iran exchange strikes across Middle East for second day in a row | BBC News

Published

on



The US and Iran have exchanged strikes across the Middle East for a second consecutive day, further straining a shaky ceasefire agreed between the two countries in April.

US Central Command said it had completed a wave of “self-defense strikes” targeting military, surveillance and radar sites in southern Iran, hours after President Donald Trump vowed US forces would hit Iran “hard”.

Tehran responded to the attack with a round of strikes targeting US military assets across the region in Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan.

Iran’s foreign ministry said early on Thursday that the overnight attacks violated the two-month-old ceasefire, rendering it “practically meaningless”.
