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.

Is it Time to Tax the Robots? | BBC News

Published

on



Join the AI Decoded team as we examine Sam Altman’s vision for an era of artificial superintelligence. The Open AI CEO is calling for a new kind of social contract — an “AI New Deal” — arguing that unprecedented technological power will require rethinking how the benefits are shared, including ideas such as wealth redistribution and even taxes on robots.

Also in the programme, presenter Christian Fraser is joined by leading AI thinker Gary Marcus and Oxford University robotics expert Professor Sara Bernardini to explore what a future shaped by autonomous machines could mean for work, safety and society.

Plus, tech reporter Lara Lewington meets 19‑year‑old student Maeve O’Neil, whose smart ring detected a life‑threatening health issue before it was too late.

Has Trump’s feud with Pope Leo crossed a line with Catholics? | Global News Podcast

Published

on



There is continuing criticism from Catholics around the world, as US President Donald Trump’s feud with Pope Leo escalates. Trump said Pope Leo XIV was “weak”, and posted an AI-generated image of himself on Truth Social, which many people believe depicted him as Jesus.

The image, which has now been deleted, showed Trump appearing to heal a sick man in a hospital bed. He said it showed him as a doctor. The image post came hours after the president posted a lengthy message criticising the pontiff, who is a vocal critic of the US and Israeli military operation in Iran.

Italy’s prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, has said Donald Trump’s remarks are ”unacceptable”. Meloni, who is Catholic and heads a right-wing coalition government, is a close ally of Trump.

Pope Leo said that he has “no fear” of the Trump administration. There are more than 70 million Catholics in the US – many of whom are swing voters. We ask the BBC’s religion editor, Aleem Maqbool, if Donald Trump’s row with the pope has dealt lasting damage to his Catholic support.

BBC investigation finds lawyers coaching fake LGBTQ+ asylum claims | BBC News

Published

on



A shadow industry of law firms and advisers is charging thousands of pounds to help migrants pretend to be gay in order to stay in the UK, the BBC has found.

In the first part of a major undercover investigation, we reveal how migrants whose visas are due to run out are being given fake cover stories and instructed in how to obtain fabricated evidence, including supporting letters, photographs and medical reports.

They then apply for asylum claiming to be gay and in fear for their lives if they return to Pakistan or Bangladesh.

In response to our findings, the Home Office said: “Anyone found trying to exploit the system will face the full force of the law, including removal from the UK.”

US Vice President JD Vance has arrived in Pakistan’s capital Islamabad alongside President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and special adviser Jared Kushner and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff for peace talks with Iran.

Meanwhile, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who has recently emerged as a prominent government figure, and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in the middle of the night ahead of the talks.

Both the sides were greeted by Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar and Pakistan’s military chief Asim Munir. The country is a key mediator between the two warring nations, and played a part in securing a fragile two-week ceasefire.
