In what climbers are calling a miracle, a 52-year-old Sherpa guide, who was presumed dead after he went missing while descending Mount Everest on May 29, was found alive near base camp on Thursday morning, six days later.Dawa ‘Hillary’ Sherpa – who earned the nickname for her mountaineering expertise – climbed more than 12 km from the Yellow Band (25,000 ft) to Crampon Point (17,000 ft) in difficult weather without food, water or supplemental oxygen, crossing the dangerous Khumbu Icefall after the climbing season ended and ropes and ladders were removed on the route.His family, having lost hope, were reciting prayers for his funeral when they were told that Dawa had been saved, searching for food, water and discarded bottled oxygen in the remaining tents.Dawa was descending after climbing Everest at 5 pm on May 28 with a group that included British climber Chris Thrall, a former Royal Marine and a Polish climber, when he was last seen near the Yellow Band on May 29. Reports state that the Polish climber reached base camp, but claimed not to be reached.Dawa praises ‘tiger of the mountains’ for ‘surviving on snow, a packet of biscuits’Thrall also “paid tribute” to Dawa on social media, saying, “RIP… Mero Dai” (Rest in peace, my elder brother). In a 13-minute video posted on Instagram on Wednesday, Thrall said, “Dawa sat down to rest with his backpack. These guys carry heavy stuff…” He added that he examined Dawa before moving on. “I turned to him and said, ‘Hillary, are you okay brother?’ He said, ‘Yes, yes, I’m fine, Chris.’ Please go.”Thrall said that as he descended, he saw a Polish climber from his team who “had frostbite and was out of supplemental oxygen”. He said, “I come from the British Royal Marines – we are taught to never leave anyone behind… I only have half a tank of oxygen left. Do I take the Polish climber who has frostbite, or go back for the Sherpa who will likely recover and do just fine as he has done hundreds of times before? His account of events has not been verified.

Thrall said he shared oxygen with the Polish climber and descended with him, and later reported Dawa missing after reaching lower camps. After increasing online criticism for not returning for the claim, Thrall said he was tired of being called a “killer”. Once Dava was found alive, Thrall said he was “overjoyed and happy for her and her wonderful family”.The Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee (SPCC) cleaning team, which was removing root equipment, spotted Dawa near Crampon Point and brought him down before he was taken to a Kathmandu hospital due to frostbite and other complications. “He is in intensive care but out of danger,” a doctor at Kathmandu’s HAMS hospital said.For the climbers and guides, what was most important was not only that Dawa survived for nearly six days without supplies, but that he passed through active crevasses and broken areas. “Two days in a crevasse deep below Camp I after a whole week in the death zone? Surviving on snow and a packet of biscuits at that altitude is an incredible feat of mental strength. He is a tiger of the mountains,” high altitude guide Nima Tenzing Sherpa told TOI.“Many guides and mountaineers have raised questions over the delay in locating Dawa. Mingma Si Sherpa, an independent high-altitude porter, told TOI that climbers often make “dangerous assumptions” about Sherpas because of their experience. “Foreign climbers believe we are invincible – a dangerous mentality. When a client is asked by a guide to move on so they can rest, they trust that expertise. Thrall made a textbook choice of survival in brutal conditions.“

New Delhi: US President Donald Trump on Thursday praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said Washington and New Delhi will soon reach a trade deal.Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said that India benefited from trade imbalance for years, but now the situation has changed.Trump said, “I like your Prime Minister very much. He is a good friend of mine and we have a good relationship. We have a good relationship.”He said, “For years, India took advantage of the United States. They charged us huge fees and did not pay anything. Now it is quite the opposite and we are making a lot of money with India. But we will reach an agreement.”This comes amid ongoing efforts by both countries to strengthen economic ties and resolve long-standing trade issues.India and the United States concluded four-day trade talks in New Delhi between June 1 and June 4, in which officials from the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR), led by the Chief Negotiator, discussed with Indian counterparts issues such as trade in goods, customs procedures, trade facilitation, non-tariff barriers and economic security cooperation.Both sides described the talks as constructive and said efforts are underway to conclude a mutually beneficial interim trade agreement, while negotiations on a comprehensive bilateral trade agreement (BTA) continue in parallel.Momentum toward a deal has strengthened in recent weeks. US Ambassador to India Sergio Gore said that talks are nearing completion, with only a limited number of issues still unresolved. Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal has similarly indicated that while most of the matters have been resolved, discussions now focus on finalizing the remaining details before the unveiling of the first phase of the agreement.Despite talks progressing, concerns remain over the Trump administration’s possible move to impose additional 12.5% ​​tariffs on imports from 60 economies, including India.A separate USTR proposal could further complicate negotiations. The review, conducted under Section 301 of the US Trade Act of 1974, covers 60 economies and focuses on concerns over imports allegedly involving forced labour.Under the proposal, economies that have banned such imports could face tariffs of 10%, while economies that have not taken comparable measures could face duties of up to 12.5%. The economies under review include India, China, Japan, South Korea, United Kingdom, Bangladesh and Vietnam.US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said countries that do not adequately address imports involving forced labor create an uneven playing field for American workers. Despite uncertainty over tariffs, both New Delhi and Washington have continued to express confidence that an interim trade agreement can be finalized soon.

England’s batting collapse against New Zealand in the opening Test at Lord’s was widely criticized on social media, but one of the sharpest reactions came from the Iceland Cricket account, which couldn’t resist taking a dig at the struggling hosts.After England were bowled out for just 140 runs in the first innings on Thursday, Iceland Cricket posted a cheeky message on Twitter that instantly caught the attention of fans.“You can take jack crawley Physically out of the England team, but his spirit is still there.”

Zak Crawley and Ollie Pope were both left out of the team, with the selectors opting for fresh batting.

Leading 24–1 after a rain-interrupted morning, the hosts suffered a dramatic collapse in the post-lunch session, losing seven wickets for 94 runs, as New Zealand’s fast bowlers took complete control.Will O’Rourke and kyle jamison The assistant took advantage of the conditions brilliantly and took five wickets, while Nathan Smith took two more wickets. England’s top order had no answer in the form of Ben Duckett, Jacob Bethell.

During his innings, he got relief twice after being out for 8 and 45 runs, but none of his teammates could provide meaningful support.Captain Ben Stokes briefly threatened to take over the innings before being dismissed with a brilliant one-handed catch. kane williamson On the second slip.

Chas Corrigan (killer) and Mohammed Algasim (victim)

A construction worker who stabbed a young Saudi student to death in an unprovoked attack in Cambridge, England, has been jailed for more than 22 years, the Daily Mail reports.Chas Corrigan, 22, was jailed for life with a minimum of 22-and-a-half years after being convicted of murdering 20-year-old Mohammed Algassim during a violent confrontation near the city center on August 1 last year.Algasim was attending an English language program in Cambridge and was spending his third summer in the city. He died after being hit on the neck with a large kitchen knife.Sentencing, Justice Dexter Dias Casey described the attack as an act of “senseless violence” fueled by alcohol, cocaine and anger.The judge said, “Probably no one will ever understand why Chas Corrigan did what he did.”He added, “It was virtually senseless violence. It was fueled by alcohol and cocaine and anger.” It was a lethal combination. Mohammed Algasim was an innocent member of the public. Most of his life was ahead of him. “That was taken away from him and it was taken away from his family.”Corrigan approached Algasim while he was sitting outside student housing with friends. The pair exchanged words and Corrigan initially walked away. However, after hearing another comment, which also included the word “center”, he turned back and confronted the student.Corrigan became aggressive, repeatedly demanding, “What did you say? What did you say?”As Algasim stood up with the mobile phone, Corrigan stabbed him in the neck before fleeing the scene.CCTV footage shown during the trial captured the moments after the attack, with the injured student running away in panic while Corrigan walked away before eventually running away.Friends attempted to save Algasim by following the 999 operator’s instructions and applying pressure to the wound. However, he collapsed and died the next morning.The post-mortem examination found that he had suffered a wound 4.5 inches deep, which had severed a major artery in his neck.Corrigan denied murder and claimed he acted in self-defense. She told jurors that she thought Algasim was going to “hurt me” and insisted that she did not realize he had attacked her with a knife.He said during the trial, “I didn’t think I’d hit him. I just thought I’d swing him. He was one step away and I thought I’d swing him between us.”He also claimed that he kept the knife for protection as he had been attacked before.However, prosecutors argued that Algasim posed no threat.Prosecutor Nicholas Hearn told the court, “Mr Algasim posed no threat to anyone. The defendant was the aggressor here.”It took jurors just two hours to convict Corrigan in March.Corrigan had drank large amounts of alcohol and taken cocaine before the attack. He admitted to drinking several alcoholic beverages and using cocaine twice that evening.Mohammed’s father Youssef Algassim described the devastating loss of his son.He said, “I prepared him for life, not death.”“Instead of looking at his accomplishments, I was faced with the unbearable reality of receiving his lifeless body.”He said Mohammed’s mother was devastated by the tragedy.“She is living as if she has no soul, holding on only to the memories of her laughter, her presence in our home, and her voice.”After the murder, Corrigan threw away the knife and his high-visibility jacket as he fled. His father, Peter Corrigan, later admitted assisting a criminal after helping to recover and dispose of evidence linked to the crime.The 51-year-old was sentenced to 24 months in prison.
