Hormuz blockade: US blockade: No Iranian ships allowed to cross the Strait of Hormuz in the last three days, 10 sent back

US blockade: No Iranian ships allowed to cross the Strait of Hormuz in the last three days, 10 sent back

The US military said on Thursday it had turned back 10 ships attempting to leave Iranian ports during the first 48 hours of its naval blockade, while maritime tracking data showed some of the vessels may have initially transited the Strait of Hormuz.In a post on Twitter, US Central Command said, “Ten ships have now been turned back, and zero ships have been breached since the US blockade began on Monday.” The latest figures involve an Iranian-flagged cargo ship that was “redirected” by the guided missile destroyer USS Spruance (DDG-111) after attempting to evade the blockade on Wednesday.According to the US military, the Iranian-flagged cargo ship had departed from Bandar Abbas, exited the strait, and was transiting along Iran’s coastline before being forced to turn back. Before adding the 10th interception, CENTCOM had previously reported nine ships capsized.However, maritime tracking data appeared to complicate the US account. Data on Tuesday indicated that at least three ships originating from Iranian ports transited the strait, some of which later changed course. The vessels were among at least seven ships linked to Iran that transited the waterway after the blockade was imposed at 1400 GMT on Monday, according to maritime analytics firm Kpler.US officials say the blockade has been implemented beyond the strait, into the Gulf of Oman, meaning ships can pass through the chokepoint but face blockage later.The full maritime blockade was announced by the Trump administration after talks in Islamabad failed, and is aimed at blocking maritime trade linked to Iran to increase pressure on Tehran. US Central Command said it was being enforced “impartially” against all ships from all countries entering or leaving Iranian ports, with naval forces standing ready to comply. Amid rising regional tensions, Tehran’s military has largely restricted maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic energy chokepoint, since the conflict broke out between Iran, the United States and Israel on February 28.However, according to the New York Post, diplomatic talks between the US and Iran aimed at ending the conflict which is currently under a fragile ceasefire could resume in Pakistan this weekend, even though the blockade remains in effect and tensions continue to rise.

ICMR rings alarm bell: India’s waistline is in danger. india news

ICMR rings alarm bell: India's waistline is running fast

New Delhi: To tackle rising obesity in India, ICMR has launched a nationwide exercise to find out what really works to reduce weight and associated health risks, at a time when almost one in four adults in the country is overweight or obese.The scale of the problem is becoming hard to ignore, with more than 25% of India’s adult population facing excess weight, leading to a rise in diabetes, hypertension and heart disease in both urban and rural areas.Despite years of research and a proliferation of diet plans, fitness regimes and awareness campaigns, there is still no clear, unified answer to which approach works best – or for whom. To bridge this gap, the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has invited researchers to contribute data from all studies for a large-scale analysis.The aim is to compare the effectiveness of different strategies – from diet and physical activity to behavioral and multi-component interventions – and to understand how they perform in different population groups.The analysis will go beyond weight loss to track blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reflecting growing concern that obesity is closely linked to a broader set of lifestyle diseases.The main focus will be to identify why the same intervention works for some people but not others, with the researchers examining variation across age, gender, income level and geography, including rural areas where undernutrition is persistent as well as obesity.Experts say the challenge is becoming more complex, with weight alone no longer a reliable indicator of health risk. Increasingly, metabolic disorders are appearing in normal weight individuals, while some people who are overweight may not have immediate complications.This initiative is expected to generate India-specific evidence to guide future treatment guidelines and public health strategies, as policymakers grapple with the rapidly growing health challenge across age groups and regions.

सोशल मीडिया से शुरू हुई कहानी… संदिग्ध हैंडलर तक कैसे पहुंचा अबू बकर, पिता ने खोला राज

वाराणसी समाचार: वाराणसी के आदमपुर थाना क्षेत्र के पठानी टोला इलाके के एक मामले ने सबका ध्यान खींचा है. मंगलवार को उत्तर प्रदेश और महाराष्ट्र एटीएस की टीम आईबी अधिकारियों के साथ यहां रहने वाले डॉ. आरिफ अंसारी के घर पहुंची. टीम ने उनके 19 साल के बेटे अबू बकर अंसारी से संदिग्ध आतंकी कनेक्शन को लेकर करीब 8 घंटे तक पूछताछ की. इस घटना के बाद अब डॉ. आरिफ अंसारी पहली बार सामने आए हैं और उन्होंने पूरे मामले पर विस्तार से अपनी राय रखी है.

सोशल मीडिया गतिविधियों से जांच शुरू हुई
डॉ. आरिफ अंसारी के मुताबिक, उनका बेटा सोशल मीडिया पर काफी एक्टिव रहता था. इस दौरान उन्होंने कुछ संदिग्ध हैंडल्स के पोस्ट लाइक किए और उनसे चैट भी की. इसी आधार पर जांच एजेंसियां ​​उनके घर तक पहुंचीं. उन्होंने बताया कि सिर्फ उनके बेटे से पूछताछ की गई और परिवार के किसी अन्य सदस्य से पूछताछ नहीं की गई.

मोबाइल और लैपटॉप जब्त कर मुंबई बुलाया गया
पूछताछ के बाद एजेंसियों ने अबू बकर के दो मोबाइल फोन और एक लैपटॉप अपने कब्जे में ले लिया. डॉक्टर अंसारी ने बताया कि उनके बेटे को आगे की पूछताछ के लिए 22 अप्रैल को मुंबई बुलाया गया है. उन्होंने यह भी कहा कि पूछताछ के दौरान एजेंसियों का व्यवहार पूरी तरह से पेशेवर और सहयोगात्मक था.

ब्रेनवाशिंग और अवसाद का डर
डॉक्टर अंसारी ने बताया कि उनका बेटा फिलहाल NEET परीक्षा की तैयारी कर रहा है और पिछले कुछ महीनों से मानसिक तनाव और डिप्रेशन में था. नवंबर से फरवरी के बीच वह काफी परेशान थे और दवाइयां भी ले रहे थे. इस दौरान वह सोशल मीडिया पर ज्यादा एक्टिव हो गए, जिससे गलत लोगों के संपर्क में आने की आशंका है. उन्होंने ब्रेनवॉशिंग की भी आशंका जताई और कहा कि उन्होंने 4 मार्च के बाद सोशल मीडिया छोड़ दिया है.

धार्मिक कट्टरता से जुड़ाव का खंडन
डॉ. अंसारी ने साफ कहा कि उनका बेटा किसी भी तरह की धार्मिक कट्टरता से नहीं जुड़ा है. वह नमाज जरूर पढ़ते हैं, लेकिन उनका नजरिया संतुलित है. उन्होंने बताया कि बच्चों को मदरसों में न पढ़ाकर शहर के अच्छे कॉन्वेंट स्कूलों में पढ़ाया जाता था.

अकेलापन बड़ी वजह बनता है, एजेंसियों पर भरोसा
डॉक्टर अंसारी ने माना कि उनके बेटे का कोई खास दोस्त नहीं है और वह अपने मन की बातें किसी से साझा नहीं करता. उन्होंने कहा कि संवादहीनता और अकेलापन इस स्थिति का बड़ा कारण बना. उन्होंने जांच एजेंसियों पर पूरा भरोसा जताया और सरकार से बच्चों को सोशल मीडिया के दुष्प्रभाव से बचाने के लिए सख्त कदम उठाने की अपील की.

UK cracks down on fake asylum claims, Home Secretary warns of deportation and action against ‘pretentious lawyers’ world News

UK cracks down on fake asylum claims, Home Secretary warns of deportation and action against 'pretentious lawyers'
Britain’s Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood

The UK government has signaled a tough stance on asylum fraud, with Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood warning on X (formerly Twitter) that individuals making false claims based on gender or sexual orientation will face denials, expulsion from the country and loss of support.In his post, Mahmoud said those who abuse the protections created for people fleeing persecution are “beyond contempt”. He said anyone attempting to cheat the system to enter or remain in Britain would have their asylum claim rejected, their support cut off and they would be put on a “one-way flight out of the UK”.He also warned that “sham lawyers” who facilitate such cases “will face the full force of the law”, adding that those found guilty will be sent to jail and have their assets confiscated, with the proceeds reinvested in dealing with the same criminal activity.His comments follow a BBC investigation which found that some legal advisers and law firms are charging migrants thousands of pounds to help them falsely claim to be gay in order to secure asylum. The report suggests that this practice is being systematically exploited.According to the investigation, many of those involved are individuals whose student, work or tourist visas have expired, rather than people coming through irregular routes.The Home Office said it was investigating the people identified in the BBC report as part of a wider investigation, as authorities noted a growing trend of suspected fraudulent claims related to sexual orientation.The move reflects increased scrutiny of asylum applications, particularly in cases where protections designed for vulnerable groups are considered to be abused.
