Is this the lowest point in India-US ties since Pokhran? But this is not just about India. Trump has alienated every major partner. Canada, EU, UN, South Korea, China.

“It wasn’t an accident. It was a crime,” say families of the #BeirutBlast victims, as they mark five years since the explosion that killed 218 and injured over 7,000 on August 4, 2020.

Let’s be clear. No prisoner escapes from a high-security cell in a central jail without help from the inside. This ‘jail break’ is an inside job. Plain and simple. #govindachami #jailbreak #kerala #keralapolice.

Came across this job posting on LinkedIn by @Forbes_MENA_ You must be living under a colonial supremacist rock to think it is acceptable to post a racist ad that ‘prefers a British national for global editorial perspective.’

Nimisha’s case exposes the dangerous gap in protections for migrant workers, particularly women who face abuse, coercion, and harassment abroad.

This is not a plea to justify a brutal killing. It’s just to acknowledge the complex, hostile conditions under which many migrant women live and work—especially in conflict zones or countries with fragile legal systems.

Reports say she faced repeated physical abuse. In such a situation, what legal doors exist for women like her? In a war-torn country, with no diplomatic presence from India, where could she have turned for justice?.

Nimisha is a migrant woman trapped in a foreign country, cut off from legal protections, support systems, with no freedom. Her passport was allegedly withheld by the victim. She had no clear way to leave the country.

Kerala nurse Nimisha Priya committed a horrific crime in Yemen. She injected her Yemeni business partner with sedatives that led to his death, then dismembered and disposed of his body in a water tank. There is no defending this act. But the story doesn’t end or begin there.

We’re appalled by the reported killing in Gaza today of children and women waiting in line for nutritional supplies provided by UNICEF’s partner organization, Project HOPE. The killing of families trying to access life-saving aid is unconscionable.👇
