US President Donald Trump vowed Monday that strikes on Yemen's Huthis will continue until they are no longer a threat to shipping, warning the rebels and their Iranian backers of "real pain" to come. Trump's threat on the Truth Social network comes as his administration battles a scandal over a chat between senior US officials on the Yemen strikes that was accidentally leaked to a journalist. It also comes amid a sharpening of Trump's rhetoric towards Tehran, with the president threatening that "there will be bombing" if Iran does not reach a deal on its nuclear program. "The choice for the Huthis is clear: Stop shooting at US ships, and we will stop shooting at you. Otherwise, we have only just begun, and the real pain is yet to come, for both the Huthis and their sponsors in Iran," said Trump. Trump added that the Huthis had been "decimated" by "relentless" strikes since March 15, saying that US forces "hit them e...

NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore thanked US President Donald Trump and SpaceX owner Elon Musk for their help in bringing them back from the International Space Station (ISS), where they stayed on for nine months after their Boeing Starliner spacecraft malfunctioned, turning a mission that was supposed to be short into a long one. The two astronauts in an interview to Fox News said space flight is hard, and using new technology to try to further and better themselves is harder. To a question on whether Boeing "screwed this up", Mr Wilmore said he does not want to point fingers at anyone. "... In certain respects, we were stuck. In certain respects, maybe we were stranded. But based on how they were couching this, that we were left and forgotten and all that, we were nowhere near any of that at all. So stuck, okay, we didn't get to come home the way we planned. So in one definition, we're stuck. But in the big scheme of things, we weren't st...

Jailed former prime minister Imran Khan has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts for human rights and democracy. Members of the Pakistan World Alliance (PWA) - an advocacy group founded last December - who also belong to the Norwegian political party Partiet Sentrum, announced the nomination of Khan, 72.

Khan, also the founder of Pakistan's main opposition Pakistan Tehreek-e-...

Republican President Donald Trump said on Sunday he was not joking about seeking a third presidential term, barred by the US Constitution, but that it was too early to think about doing so. Trump, who took office on January 20 for his second, non-consecutive White House term, has made allusions to seeking a third one but addressed it directly in a telephone interview with NBC News. "No, I'm not joking. I'm not joking," Trump said, but "it is far too early to think about it." "There are methods which you could do it, as you know," he said, declining to elaborate on specific methods. US presidents are limited to two four-year terms, consecutive or not, according to the 22nd Amendment of the US Constitution. A proposal to overturn a constitutional amendment requires a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress and ratification by the legislatures of three-fourths of the 50 US states. Some Trump allies have floated the idea of keeping Trump in the ...

The death count from a huge earthquake that hit Myanmar and Thailand passed 1,600 on Saturday, as rescuers dug through the rubble of collapsed buildings in a desperate search for survivors. The shallow 7.7-magnitude quake struck northwest of the city of Sagaing in central Myanmar early Friday afternoon, followed minutes later by a 6.7-magnitude aftershock. The quake destroyed buildings, downed bridges, and buckled roads across swathes of Myanmar, with massive destruction seen in Mandalay, the country's second biggest city and home to more than 1.7 million people. "We need aid," said Thar Aye, 68, a Mandalay resident. "We don't have enough of anything." At least 1,644 people were killed and more than 3,400 injured in Myanmar, with at least 139 more missing, the junta said in a statement. Around 10 more deaths have been confirmed in Bangkok. But with communications badly disrupted, the true scale of the disaster is only starting to emerge from the isolate...

India on Saturday underscored its swift response to the devastating earthquake in Myanmar, reaffirming its commitment to being the "first responder," highlighting the meaning of "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam" (the world is one family). In a special briefing on Operation Brahma by the Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has committed all possible support from India to earthquake-hit Myanmar, adding that India has always been the first responder in such situations. "A massive earthquake struck Myanmar yesterday around afternoon time. We all are aware of the kind of destruction that it has left. Massive loss of life and property has been reported. Soon after the tragedy struck Myanmar, our Prime Minister conveyed his concerns and expressed that India was ready to provide all possible support to the people of Myanmar and the government of Myanmar in this hour of crisis," he said. RandhirJaiswal added tha...

The Arctic is heating up, not just in terms of Climate Change, but also in terms of geopolitics. With US President Donald Trump pressing to annex Greenland and Canada, Russia isn't to be left behind. President Putin today visited Murmansk - the largest city north of the Arctic circle where he pledged to "strengthen Russia's global leadership in the Arctic". The Russian President however, did not make any territorial claims, nor spoke of expansionism. What came as a surprise though, was President Putin's no-objection to President Trump's plan to annex Greenland and make it a US territory. "Geopolitical competition in the Arctic region is intensifying," President Putin said, giving Donald Trump's plan to take over Greenland as a primary example of it. Speaking about the significant shift in US foreign policy, President Putin said, "America's plans in relation to Greenland are serious. These plans have deep historical roots. And it is cl...

Turkey on Thursday stepped up a crackdown on media coverage of mass protests since the arrest of Istanbul's popular mayor, deporting a BBC journalist and imposing a 10-day broadcast ban on an opposition TV channel. The moves came after police detained 11 Turkish journalists, including an AFP photographer, who were covering the worst street protests to hit Turkey since 2013. The protests erupted on March 19 after the arrest and subsequent jailing of Istanbul mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's biggest political rival. Defying a protest ban, vast crowds have hit the streets daily, with the nightly rallies often descending into running battles with riot police, whose crackdowns have drawn international condemnation. Earlier on Thursday, Turkey deported a BBC journalist covering the protests on grounds he posed "a threat to public order", the British broadcaster said. Mark Lowen was taken from his Istanbul hotel on Wednesday and detained for 17 hou...

Artificial intelligence can help detect foetal abnormalities from pregnancy scans nearly twice as quickly but with the same accuracy, according to the results of a UK trial published Thursday. The trial, which included 78 pregnant women and 58 sonographers, focused on looking for heart problems in the 20-week scans, but researchers said the AI could look for any abnormality. It was also more reliable and 42 percent quicker than humans when it came to taking foetal measurements, with sonographers no longer needing to pause, measure and save images during the scan. "Our research has shown that AI-assisted scans are accurate, reliable and more efficient," said lead author Thomas Day. "We hope that using AI in these scans will free up precious time for sonographers to focus on patient care, making the experience more comfortable and reassuring for parents," he added. The trial, published in the journal NEJM AI, was led by King's College London and Guy's and...

A stabbing attack in Amsterdam on Thursday wounded five people, Dutch police said, adding that a suspect was in custody. Police erected a cordon around the area where the stabbings took place, near the central Dam Square. "We currently have no information about the cause or motive of the stabbing incident. This is part of our investigation," police said in a statement. An AFP reporter on the scene said the injured had been evacuated but there was still a heavy police presence and ambulances were also on hand. There was no immediate information on the condition of those wounded. Early images from local news agency ANP showed a person on a stretcher being loaded into the back of an ambulance. A trauma helicopter landed on Dam Square to tend to the victims. According to local media reports, Amsterdam mayor Femke Halsema left a meeting in the town hall when news of the attack broke. The police urged anyone with images of the incident to upload them as evidence. They also ...

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Wednesday that the inclusion of a journalist in group chat on military strikes was a "big mistake" and expected reforms, while highlighting his own limited role. "Obviously, someone made a mistake -- someone made a big mistake -- and added a journalist. Nothing against journalists, but you ain't supposed to be on that thing," Rubio told a news conference in Jamaica. "I think there will be reforms and changes made so this never -- this is not going to happen again," he said. Rubio did not assign blame but quickly noted that he only participated twice in the chat -- once to assign a representative and later after the US government had publicly announced the strikes on Yemen. Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, said he was inadvertently added into the chat on commercial app Signal by Mike Waltz, the national security advisor, and that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth disclosed strike plans throug...

US President Donald Trump will announce tariffs on auto imports to the country Wednesday, the White House said in a move set to fuel tensions with trading partners ahead of further promised levies next week. Since returning to the presidency in January, Trump has already imposed tariffs on major US trading partners Canada, Mexico and China -- but he previously offered automakers temporary reprieve from the levies affecting North America. He has also slapped 25 percent duties on steel and aluminum imports, weighing on manufacturers. On Wednesday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told a briefing that Trump will hold a press conference at 4:00 pm (2000 GMT) "to announce tariffs on the auto industry." Additional duties would mark a further blow to businesses reeling from policy uncertainty and earlier waves of levies, which economists warned could add to producers' costs. These costs could eventually be passed on to consumers, if companies are unable to absor...

As China and India push to mend ties, strained for nearly half a decade, Foreign Minister S Jaishankar said that "what happened in 2020 was not the way to address issues". The minister's remarks recalled the way China had unilaterally tried to change the status quo along the Line of Actual Control or LAC. Mr Jaishankar also acknowledged that India and China will continue to have issues in the "foreseeable future", but said that "there are ways of addressing them" without getting into a conflict. "We know that, between India and China, at least in the foreseeable future, there will be issues, but there are ways of addressing those issues, and what happened in 2020 was not the way," External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said in a conversation with non-profit Asia Society. The minister was speaking about the way ties between India and China have evolved over the years. After China's unilateral decision to alter the status quo is eastern ...

The president of Signal defended the messaging app's security on Wednesday after top Trump administration officials mistakenly included a journalist in an encrypted chatroom they used to discuss a looming US attack on Yemen's Houthis. Signal's Meredith Whittaker did not directly address the blunder, which Democratic lawmakers have said was a breach of US national security. But she described the app as the "gold standard in private comms" in a post on X, which outlined Signal's security advantages over Meta's WhatsApp messaging app. "We're open source, nonprofit, and we develop and apply (end-to-end encryption) and privacy-preserving tech across our system to protect metadata and message contents," she said. Signal has been growing in popularity in Europe and the United States as an alternative to WhatsApp because it collects very little data about its users. According to data from Sensor Tower, a market intelligence firm, U.S. downloads o...

Israel's military said its forces operating in Rafah in southern Gaza on Monday fired at a Red Cross building after mistakenly "identifying suspects inside and feeling a threat to the force". "After an investigation, it was determined that the identification was incorrect and that the building belonged to the Red Cross. The force was unaware of the building's affiliation at the time of the shooting," the military said in a statement, adding there were no casualties and the incident would be investigated.

US Vice President JD Vance recently said that "A green card does not give an individual an indefinite right to stay in the United States" - a statement that has become a cause of much anxiety and stress for millions of immigrants of Indian origin. Over the past few weeks, US immigration rules have been tightened significantly, prompting immigration attorneys to issue travel risk advisories for Indian Green Card and H-1B holders. Due to the Trump Administration's massive crackdown on immigrants - both illegal and legal - key immigration agencies of the US have enhanced scrutiny of those travelling abroad and even more greatly heightened checks for those who return to the country. The agencies that keep a check of who is leaving or entering the United States include: US Citizenship and Immigration Services or USCIS Immigration and Customs Enforcement or ICE Department of Homeland Security or DHS Customs and Border Protection or CBP Millions of Indians living, worki...

A Wisconsin man who voted for President Donald Trump says he does not regret his decision, even after federal immigration authorities arrested his wife upon their return from their honeymoon. Bradley Bartell's wife, Camila Munoz, a Peruvian citizen, overstayed her visa but was working toward obtaining permanent residency in the US. Despite their ordeal, Mr Bartell still supports Trump, who has pledged the largest mass deportation effort in US history. "I don't regret the vote," Mr Bartell told Newsweek . "He didn't create the system, but he does have an opportunity to improve it. Hopefully, all this attention will bring to light how broken it is," he said. Ms Munoz arrived in Wisconsin Dells in 2019 on a work-study visa, which expired as COVID-19 halted international travel. She worked in farming and hospitality, where she met Mr Bartell. After initially losing his phone number, she later reconnected with him on Facebook, and they began a serious rel...

Usha Vance, the wife of US Vice President JD Vance, will travel to Greenland on Thursday as President Donald Trump clings to the idea of a US annexation of the strategic, semi-autonomous Danish territory. She will visit Greenland with a US delegation to tour historical sites, learn about the territory's heritage and attend the national dogsled race, the White House said in a statement. The delegation will return to the US on March 29. White House national security advisor Mike Waltz and Energy Secretary Chris Wright will visit a US military base in Greenland as part of the trip, a US official said. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Trump has made US annexation of Greenland a major talking point since taking office for a second time on January 20.

Canada's new Prime Minister, Mark Carney, who took over after Justin Trudeau's ouster, has called for snap election in the country on April 28. The ruling Liberal Party of Canada will be up against the main opposition party - the Conservative Party of Canada. Prime Minister Carney said he has called for a snap election in order to ensure that his country gets a government with a stronger mandate than the Liberal Party currently has. This is important keeping in mind the trade war with neighbouring United States and President Trump's repeated threat to annexe Canada to make it the 51st state of the US - which Canadians outrightly reject. "I've just requested that the Governor General to dissolve parliament and call an election for April 28. She has agreed," Prime Minister Carney said, referring to King Charles III's representative in Canada, a member of the British Commonwealth. During the sudden announcement, the prime minister said that "Donald Tr...

Megan Garcia's 14-year-old son, Sewell Setzer III, died by suicide last year after talking to an AI bot based on the Game of Thrones character Daenerys Targaryen and hosted on Character.ai where users can create chatbots based on real-life or fictional people. However, earlier this week, Ms Garcia discovered that the platform was hosting several bots, based on her late son.

Elon Musk has suggested that transgender people were behind the recent attacks on Tesla, blaming “hormone injections" for "extreme emotional volatility" among them. On X, Musk reshared a post that claimed three of the four people arrested for "vandalising Teslas" were transgender or non-binary. "What are the statistics on trans violence? The probability of a trans person being violent appears to be vastly higher than non-trans. Hormone injections cause extreme emotional volatility. That is simply a fact."

Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz threatened Friday to annex parts of the Gaza Strip unless Hamas militants release the remaining Israeli hostages held in the war-battered Palestinian territory. The warning came as Israel stepped up the renewed assault it launched on Tuesday, shattering the relative calm that had reigned in the war-battered territory since a January 19 ceasefire. Gaza's civil defence agency said Israeli strikes killed 11 people on Friday -- three in pre-dawn strikes and eight more during the daytime.  On Thursday, it reported a death count of 504 since the bombardment resumed, one of the highest since the war began more than 17 months ago with Hamas's attack on Israel. "I ordered (the army) to seize more territory in Gaza... The more Hamas refuses to free the hostages, the more territory it will lose, which will be annexed by Israel," Katz said in a statement. Should Hamas not comply, Katz also threatened "to expand buffer zones around Ga...

US President Donald Trump will sign an order Thursday to start dismantling the Department of Education, fulfilling an election campaign pledge and a long-held dream of American conservatives. The Republican will issue the order during a White House ceremony -- one of the most drastic steps yet in the brutal overhaul of the government that he is carrying out with the help of tech tycoon Elon Musk. Trump has cast the move as necessary to save money and improve educational standards in the United States, saying they are lagging behind those in Europe and China. But education has been a battleground for decades in America's culture wars, and Republicans have long wanted to remove control of it from the federal government. "He is saving America's children with this action," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News ahead of the signing at 4:00 pm (2000 GMT). "The Department of Education has never educated a child. All it has ever done is stolen m...

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and a close ally of US President Donald Trump, has spoken out about the alleged conspiracy to harm him and his company. In a recent interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Musk expressed his concerns about the growing violence and hatred towards him and Tesla. Musk attributed the backlash to his efforts to reduce government waste and corruption as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). He claimed that when people's fraudulent activities are disrupted, they become upset. Musk stated, "It turns out when you take away people's, you know, the money that they're receiving fraudulently, they get very upset." He added, "And they basically want to kill me because I'm stopping their fraud and they want to hurt Tesla because we're stopping the terrible waste and corruption in the government. And, well, I guess they're bad people. Bad people do bad things." He further alleged that these individuals ...

Even as the Quad steadily strengthens its hold across the Indo-Pacific region, India may soon consider being a part of another key multilateral alliance that focuses on the South China Sea. The group in question is the 'Squad' - whose members currently include Japan, Australia, the US, and the Philippines. The group now plans to invite India and South Korea to join it. Philippines and Japan, which face challenges with China's growing military presence in the South China Sea, aim to counter Beijing and keep it in check, said General Romeo S. Brawner, the Philippines' Armed Forces chief. Though Squad is still an informal grouping, member states have conducted joint maritime activities in South China Sea for over a year. "Together with Japan and our partners we are trying to expand the squad to include India and probably South Korea," General Brawner said at the Raisina Dialogue - a multilateral conference in New Delhi. Interestingly, the General's comment...
