12 May,2025 08:05 PM ISTIn a significant development, the Indian Armed Forces on Monday announced that they had successfully intercepted and neutralized a missile and multiple drones launched by Pakistan towards India. At a special press briefing, top officials from the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force said that the attack involved a Chinese-origin PL-15 missile and Turkish-made YIHA and Songar drones, all deployed by the Pakistan Armed Forces. The Indian defence systems acted swiftly, intercepting the missile mid-air and shooting down the drones before they could reach their targets. Air Marshal AK Bharti confirmed that the PL-15 missile missed its intended target and was taken down by India`s integrated air defence network. He appeared alongside Lt General Rajiv Ghai of the Indian Army and Vice Admiral AN Pramod of the Indian Navy, both of whom emphasized the joint effort and coordination among the services in thwarting the attempted strike. Responding to a question on whether India targeted Kirana Hills—an area suspected to host nuclear facilities in Pakistan—Air Marshal Bharti replied with a hint of sarcasm, saying, "Thank you for telling us that Kirana Hills houses some nuclear installation, we did not know about it. We have not hit Kirana Hills, whatever is there." ... [Read More]

12 May,2025 03:44 PM ISTIndia’s star cricketer Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from Test cricket, bringing an end to a remarkable 14-year career in the longest format. Kohli, who wore jersey No. 18, shared the news on his Instagram account on May 12 with an emotional message to fans. Kohli played 123 Test matches for India, scoring 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85. His record includes 30 centuries, 31 half-centuries, and a highest score of 254. He finishes as India’s fourth-highest run-scorer in Tests, behind legends Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, and Sunil Gavaskar. Kohli`s final Test series was the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, where he scored 190 runs in 9 innings, including a century in Perth. In 2024, he had a tough run with just 382 runs in 10 matches, averaging 22.47. Known for his passion and leadership, Kohli not only made his mark as a top batter but also took Indian Test cricket to new heights during his captaincy. His retirement comes shortly after Rohit Sharma also stepped away from Test cricket.... [Read More]
12 May,2025 03:22 PM ISTU.S.-based foreign policy expert Michael Kugelman stated that the United States intervened in the recent India-Pakistan crisis despite Vice President JD Vance’s earlier remarks that the tensions were "none of their business." Kugelman explained that the severity of the military strikes prompted the U.S. to step in, with particular concern over the possibility of a nuclear escalation. He highlighted that India reportedly targeted an airbase in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, located near nuclear sites, which likely alarmed U.S. officials. Additionally, Pakistan`s internal signaling, including plans for key security meetings, may have suggested preparations for nuclear contingencies. Kugelman emphasized that the nuclear risk was likely the major reason behind the U.S. decision to intervene diplomatically in the situation.... [Read More]
