India lodges protest with China over its infra development in Shaksgam valley

India has strongly protested against China's construction activities in the Shaksgam valley, which India considers a part of its territory. The Ministry of External Affairs reiterated that India has never accepted the 1963 China-Pakistan boundary pact that attempted to cede the area to Beijing. India has registered its protest with China and reserved the right to take necessary measures to safeguard its interests. The Shaksgam valley is strategically important and is currently part of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.

Russia proposes UN resolution on banning weapons in space, after vetoing similar UN-Japan draft

Russia has proposed a U.N. resolution urging all nations to prevent the deployment of weapons in outer space "for all time." This comes after Russia vetoed a U.S.-Japan resolution aimed at curbing an arms race in space. The Russian draft resolution goes further by calling for a ban on all types of weapons in space, including the use of force in outer space. The vetoed resolution focused only on weapons of mass destruction, excluding other weapons in space. Russia's move is seen as a response to recent developments, including the U.S.'s confirmation of Russia's anti-satellite weapon capability.

No safety in retreat: Ukrainian soldiers say rear defensive lines barely exist amid Russian advance

Ukrainian soldiers face daunting challenges as they battle better-armed Russian forces. Devastating Russian aerial glide bombs, out of reach of Ukraine's air defenses, are targeting their positions, forcing retreats from villages and defensive lines weakened by relentless shelling. Ukraine is scrambling to build fortifications, but bureaucracy, lack of equipment, and ongoing attacks hinder progress. The delayed US aid package aims to bolster Ukraine's defenses, but until then, Russia continues to exploit vulnerabilities.
