Asserting that no place in Pakistan remained safe for terrorists, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday told soldiers at the Adampur air base in Punjab that India's drones, and missiles gave sleepless nights to Pakistan. His speech came a day after his first public address since India launched Operation Sindoor. PM Modi also reiterated the new 3-point doctrine he had unveiled a day earlier, including that New Delhi will no longer tolerate nuclear blackmail. During his early morning visit to Adampur, the Prime Minister hailed the Indian Air Force personnel, saying that they made every Indian proud, and had created history. Modi got briefed by the Air Force personnel on the situation, and also interacted with jawans. Meanwhile, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh held a key briefing with military chiefs on Tuesday, with the CDS, Army Chief, Navy Chief, Vice Air Chief and Defence Secretary in attendance.India's Operation Sindoor precision strikes destroyed nearly 20% of Pakistan Air Force infrastructure and multiple fighter jets, official sources said Tuesday. The strikes targeted key bases like Sargodha and Bholari, which housed F-16s and JF-17s, in retaliation to Pakistani drone and missile attacks. Over 50 people, including Squadron Leader Usman Yusuf, were killed in Bholari. India also hit ammunition depots and several other airbases across Pakistan. Satellite imagery confirmed major damage. The strikes mark a significant strategic and psychological blow to Pakistan's military capabilities.In a verdict six years in the making, the Mahila Court in Coimbatore on Tuesday convicted all nine accused in the 2019 Pollachi sexual assault case and awarded them life imprisonment. The nine men were found guilty of multiple charges, including criminal conspiracy, sexual harassment, rape, gangrape, and extortion. The incident, which came out just weeks before the 2019 general elections, led to Tamil Nadu's then ruling AIADMK getting politically cornered with allegations of inaction and links to the accused. President Droupadi Murmu has sought the Supreme Court's opinion under Article 143(1) on whether timelines can be legally imposed on the President and Governors for acting on state Bills. This comes after the Court, in April, set a three-month deadline for the President to act on Bills referred by Governors, despite no such timeline existing in Article 201 of the Constitution. The Court stated that delays beyond this period must be explained to the concerned state. The President now seeks clarity on whether these directives are justiciable.Following India's move to place the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) in abeyance after the Pahalgam terror attack, Pakistan has shown willingness for talks for the first time. Pakistan's Water Resources Secretary Syed Ali Murtaza has reportedly responded to India's notification and offered to discuss New Delhi's specific objections. India's decision came in response to the attack, which heightened diplomatic tensions. The IWT, signed in 1960, governs water sharing between the two nations. Pakistan's response marks a rare shift, potentially opening the door to dialogue amid ongoing hostilities.

Pahalgam attack: India suspends Indus Waters Treaty, central to Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir rant

Terrorists opened fire on civilians at a tourist spot in Kashmir's Pahalgam on Tuesday afternoon, with at least 28 confirmed dead and several others injured.

Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir's remarks on Hinduism, Kashmir and the two-nation theory have invited a sharp rebuke from India. In Episode 1642 of #CutTheClutter Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta lays out the three key takeaways from Munir's address at an Overseas Pakistani Convention in Islamabad, and explains why his speech carried a message for those in the rank and file of the Pakistan Army supportive of ex-PM Imran Khan.----more----Watch Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir's full speech here: https://youtu.be/12oFh0dni0E

भारत के 28वें सेना अध्यक्ष जनरल मनोज मुकुंद नरवणे हमारे साथ हैं, उनका सफर एक कैडेट से लेकर सेना प्रमुख बनने तक और अब लेखक के रूप में एक नई भूमिका में प्रवेश करना, कई ऐतिहासिक पड़ावों से होकर गुज़रा है. इस एपिसोड में हमने बात की गलवान संकट, ऑपरेशन स्नो लेपर्ड, LAC पर चीन से तनाव, अग्निवीर योजना, श्रीलंका में भारत की रणनीति और पाकिस्तान की सेना से हमारी तुलना पर. साथ ही चर्चा की उनकी नई किताब "The Cantonment Conspiracy", जो एक रोमांचक मिलिट्री थ्रिलर है.

Facing escalating attacks from Baloch and Taliban jihadists, Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir has vowed a harsh response. Founding its responses on discredited colonial-era doctrine, the Pakistan Army thinks it can coerce insurgents into submission. That belief has led to failure though, and will likely do so again.

John J. Pershing and Douglas MacArthur are both towering figures in American military history—Pershing as the commander of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) in World War I, and MacArthur as a key leader in World War II and the Korean War. In terms of age, they were separated by about 20 years, but they were both First Captains at West Point, both served as U.S. Army Chief of Staff, and both were absolutely devoted to the U.S. Army. Their interactions spanned decades, revealing a dynamic that oscillated between admiration, rivalry, and friction. World War I played a very key role in this complicated relationship. To discuss their interactions during WWI, the World War I Podcast hosted Jim Zobel, MacArthur Memorial Archivist.Have a comment about this episode? Send us a text message!

Pakistan faces a major territorial challenge as the Balochistan independence movement gains momentum, with increasing protests and separatist demands threatening the country's integrity. Meanwhile, Bangladesh is in political turmoil following the ousting of Sheikh Hasina, as student-led protests have resulted in the formation of a new political party, raising concerns of instability. With the Army Chief warning of potential anarchy, the situation remains tense. These developments, coupled with shifting global dynamics and Trump's political maneuvers, indicate a period of significant geopolitical change.

The U.S. Army War College continues to support the Army Chief of Staff's (CSA) focus on warfighting. In this episode, podcast editor Ron Granieri sits with Isaac Henderson, Pamela Lovasz, and Rick Luce—three recent graduates of the resident course Carlisle Scholars Program—to discuss their research examining the challenges and possibilities of implementing a warfighting mindset across the force. Whether it's adapting a concept like shoot, move, and communicate to non-combat career fields, folding Department of the Army civilians into the culture, or the overarching concept of trust in mission command, these three professionals share the insights of their study over the last year.

Welcome to Season 2 of Talking Flight.   Our guest today is Chief Warrant Officer Ron Warren. He is a distinguished Army veteran with a career that has taken him from the Utah Army National Guard where he served as a Military Policeman, and later, he transferred to the Regular Army where he became a Dog Handler. Ron and his dog were later assigned to a Special Forces team performing combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The team was transported and protected by superbly skilled and battle-hardened Army helicopter crews. Ron was impressed by the skill and coolness of these pilots, and he had no idea that he would later join that elite group of aviators and lead other helicopter pilots into battle.
