In a catastrophic breach of security, Lashkar-e-Taiba’s top commander Bilal Arif Salafi has been assassinated inside the group’s Muridke Headquarters.

An RT news crew has been wounded in an Israeli airstrike near the Khiyam sector as the IDF expands its ground invasion of Lebanon.

We analyze the latest 2026 war updates, including the death of Iran’s security chief Ali Larijani, the projectile hit on the Bushehr nuclear plant, and why Russia’s reaction to this strike could change the course of the war.

In a landmark operation, the NIA has arrested six Ukrainians and one American for operating a secret combat training camp in Mizoram’s Lawngtlai district. These foreign nationals, including Ukraine war veterans, were allegedly providing tactical and drone warfare training to Myanmar rebel groups like the CNA.
