Filmmaker Meghna Gulzar has opened up about how films portray patriotism differently, comparing her 2018 directorial Raazi with the more action-driven Dhurandhar. According to Meghna, the difference lies in the stories being told rather than the level of patriotism displayed by their characters. The filmmaker discussed the subject during her appearance on the podcast Learn By KK Create. Asked about Dhurandhar and whether her approach to patriotism differs from that seen in other films, Meghna said that the characters in Raazi are not less patriotic simply because their patriotism is expressed differently on screen. The difference is in the story. I don't think Raazi's characters aren't any less patriotic than Dhurandhar's characters. It is their actions because of the way the story is. That is how they are depicted. One does not have to be right, and the other has to be wrong. Patriotism and prayers don't need volume. And they aren't expressed in one particular way. Every individual has their own way of expression, she said. Meghna Gulzar on patriotism and moral choices in Raazi Released in 2018, Raazi starred Alia Bhatt as Sehmat, a young Indian woman who is recruited as an undercover operative and sent to Pakistan during the 1971 Indo-Pak war. The film explores her mission through personal relationships, sacrifice and the moral consequences of her actions. For Meghna, the character's patriotism does not necessarily translate into an absence of moral conflict. When asked whether there was a limit to the kind of patriotism she would portray on screen, she said the character's own boundaries were what mattered. There is no limit. If the character does not have a limit, how will I have a limit? And there was no limit of Raazi's character's patriotism. She had a limit when it came to her moral compass, Meghna said. On the professional front, Meghna Gulzar is currently gearing up for her latest directorial, Daayra, which stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and Malayalam actor Prithviraj Sukumaran.

Indias KAL Drone Takes Flight At Pokhran, Gives 1,000-Km Kamikaze Capability To Match Iran's Shahed
India has tested KAL, a long-range attack drone, from a vehicle-mounted launcher at Pokhran. IG Defence says the platform can fly up to 1,000 kilometres, remain airborne for seven to eight hours and carry a payload of up to 50 kilograms. These are company-reported specifications, not a public announcement of military induction. Still, the test matters. Shahed-class and Geran drones have shown how low-cost, long-range weapons can stretch air defences and hit deep targets. KAL gives India a domestic option. The system uses satellite and inertial navigation and can link with the companys GRID battle-management architecture. India is also building a wider drone ecosystem, from tactical strike systems to counter-drone tools. Gulf countries have shown interest in KAL, subject to government approvals. This video explains the Pokhran test, the Shahed comparison and why mass production, electronic-warfare resilience and doctrine will decide whether KAL becomes a real strategic asset for India.
Tehrans Mystery Lights: Shiny, Multi-Coloured Objects Seen 50 Years After 1976 'UFO Sighting'
Fifty years after Irans famous 1976 Tehran UFO incident, mysterious multicoloured lights are again trending over the capital. Viral clips appear to show a bright object hovering near the Azadegan Expressway. But the location, altitude, distance, speed, size and identity have not been independently verified. Social media theories range from drones and aircraft to an LED kite and UFOs. None is proven. The timing has made the speculation louder. Iran is under intense pressure from the United States and Israel, and Tehran has warned of retaliation if attacked again. That means an unidentified light is first a security question, not an alien story. The 1976 episode was different: Iranian F-4 jets were scrambled and US government records documented the incident. For India, the lesson is media literacy in a tense region. Watch the full breakdown of the footage, the 1976 case and why uncertainty is not evidence of extraterrestrial activity.
India's KAL Drone Flies: 1,000 Km Strike Range, Shahed-Style Loitering Weapon Built In Noida
India has tested a new long-range loitering munition. Noida-based IG Defence successfully flew its KAL drone from the Pokhran Field Firing Range in Rajasthan, validating its airframe, propulsion, avionics, navigation and mission systems. Designed for strikes up to 1,000 kilometres away, KAL can stay airborne for up to eight hours, carry a 50-kg explosive payload, and operate autonomously using satellite and inertial navigation. With conflicts from Ukraine to the Red Sea proving the battlefield value of cheap, mass-produced drones, could KAL become India's answer to the Shahed-136?

Researchers later established that the pottery was Egyptian and pre-Dynastic, making it 600 years older than Petrie originally believed.

4,000 delays reported after FAA issues ground stops at Northeast airports
Flyers across the United States are facing massive disruptions to their travel plans on Monday after equipment outages stopped flights at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey and Philadelphia International Airport in Pennsylvania, with no estimated time for resuming. More than 700 flights have been canceled nationwide and another 4,000 are delayed on Monday, with Newark hit the hardest. The issues began when a circuit blew at a Philadelphia air traffic control facility Monday morning, FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford said. When the backup system went into place, officials discovered the backup line in New Jersey had been cut, Bedford said. Smith Collection/gado/Gado via Getty Images - PHOTO: Multiple United Airlines jets are visible on the tarmac at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), Newark, New Jersey, June 6, 2026. In order to change the circuit in Philadelphia, Bedford said the airspace in the Northeast would be closing for at least 30 minutes, and ground stops were expanded to include New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport and LaGuardia Airport as part of the work. Airspace has since reopened at JFK and LaGuardia, but officials said the fix to replace the circuit in Philadelphia has not worked, leaving operations still halted at Philadelphia and Newark's airports, with no time estimate for when they'll resume. 1 killed after 2 glider planes collide in upstate New York, police say The outage caused a ripple effect across the Northeast and the U.S., diverting some flights and canceling and delaying others. United Airlines, which has one of its hubs at Newark Airport, said the FAA technology outage is affecting all airlines in the Northeast. Flights that had been destined for Newark have either been held at their departure airport or diverted to alternative airports, United said in a statement. Once the FAA outage is resolved, we will work to safely get our customers to their destinations, and have issued a travel waiver to give our customers flexibility to manage their travel plans. This is a developing story. Please check back for updates. ABC News' Jason Volack contributed to this report.

US Completes Iraq Base Handover After 23 Years; Troops Relocate To Jordan | Report
Twenty-three years after invading Iraq, the United States has begun removing vehicles, weapons and equipment from its final installations in the country ahead of a September 30 withdrawal deadline. Hundreds of American troops remain around Erbil, but a U.S. military official says most will be redeployed to Jordan and other regional locations rather than sent home. The move ends Americas permanent military mission inside Iraq without representing a broader withdrawal from West Asia. U.S. air-defence systems are also being removed, raising Kurdish fears of increased exposure to missiles and drones. Meanwhile, powerful Iran-aligned armed groups have shown little willingness to surrender their weapons despite Baghdads pledge to bring all forces under state authority. Washington is closing its Iraq missionbut leaving behind vulnerable Kurdish territory, heavily armed factions and an American military presence redistributed across a new regional map.
