A fleet of Russian warships and aircraft on Wednesday entered the Caribbean in what some see as a projection of strength as tensions grow over Western support for Ukraine. The US military expects the exercises will involve a handful of Russian ships and support vessels, which may also stop in Venezuela. Russia is a longtime ally of Venezuela and Cuba, and its warships and aircraft have periodically made forays into the Caribbean. But this mission comes less than two weeks after President Joe Biden authorized Ukraine to use US-provided weapons to strike inside Russia to protect Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, prompting President Vladimir Putin to suggest his military could respond with "asymmetrical steps" elsewhere in the world. The Biden administration has described Russia's Caribbean excursion as a routine naval activity, downplaying characterisations of it as a provocation.

According to recent reports, China renamed some places in Arunachal Pradesh, and India is thinking of doing the same with places in Tibet This action could draw fresh attention to the Tibetan issue as it is perceived as a countermeasure to China's actions. While India has not officially confirmed this decision, it appears to be in response to China's efforts to assert control over disputed territories. According to reports, India's government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has approved the renaming of 30 places in Tibet. This decision is a direct response to China's actions in Arunachal Pradesh, and it is supported by historical research and connections to the Tibet region. Along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), the Indian army will use the recently approved names and they will appear on their maps. China renamed some locations in Arunachal Pradesh earlier this year; India's decision to rename places in Tibet can be interpreted as a tit-for-tat. ...

While acknowledging the fact that the Israel-Hamas war was inevitable, the former Prime Minister of Israel, Ehud Olmert stated that the ongoing conflict could have ended five months ago In a thought-provoking interview with the Firstpost's Bhagyasree Sengupta, the erstwhile Israeli premier gave his take on the crisis at hand and how Israel's current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is dealing with it. Olmert was the 12th Prime Minister of Israel from 2006 to 2009. The veteran politician was at the forefront of several peace deal negotiations with the Palestinians and the Arab world. During his premiership, he navigated Israel through the Second Lebanon War and the Cast Lead Operation in Gaza. Throughout the ongoing conflict, Olmert has been a strong advocate for the implementation of a two-state solution in the region. During the insightful conversation, the former Israeli premier delved more into Netanyahu's conduct throughout the war. War should have ended 5 ...

israeli politician Benny Gantz, a key member of the country's war Cabinet, quit the government Sunday over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's handling of the war in the Gaza Strip. The resignation dealt a blow to the appearance of unity that Netanyahu was able to marshal at the start of the conflict and exposed the divisions at the top of the Israeli leadership over the future of the war and its aftermath. Gantz, a centrist figure who last month threatened to resign unless Netanyahu addressed his concerns about how the war would end and what would follow it, said his party was leaving the emergency government "with a heavy but complete heart." He said Netanyahu's leadership was "preventing us from advancing to the real victory." The move is unlikely to force Netanyahu from office - the prime minister's government will still hold a narrow majority in Israel's parliament. Gantz's exit comes as frustration mounts over the failure to...

The motive for the attack is unclear.
