Houthis Escalate War On Saudi Arabia! Riyadh Airport Targeted In Fresh Ballistic Missile Attack
Yemens Houthis say they launched another ballistic missile at Riyadhs King Khalid International Airport, while Saudi Arabia says its air defences intercepted a missile heading towards the capital. Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree claimed the group directly targeted the airport and said the hit was accurate. The Saudi-led coalition gave a different account, saying its forces successfully intercepted a ballistic missile fired towards Riyadh. The competing claims have not been independently reconciled. King Khalid International Airport has repeatedly come under attack during the latest escalation, with previous incidents causing casualties, fires and major disruption to international aviation. The Houthis also claimed three ballistic-missile strikes against Saudi forces in the Ras al-Ara and Al-Madaribah areas of southwestern Yemen. Saudi Arabia, meanwhile, continues airstrikes against Houthi positions and suspected launch infrastructure, as both sides intensify operations inside Yemen and deep within Saudi territory.

Former Deputy Chief Minister of Karnataka and MLA CN Ashwath Narayan on Tuesday alleged that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's treatment of Karnataka Chief Minister DK Shivakumar was improper and an insult to the state. Speaking at a press conference at the BJP state office, Jagannath Bhavan in Malleshwaram, Ashwath Narayan said Rahul Gandhi pulled the Chief Minister's 'jubba' and pushed him aside. He pulled his jubba and dragged him. He has insulted Karnataka. This is not how you treat a senior leader, he alleged. The BJP leader described Rahul Gandhi's actions as hitting like in boxing, using kung fu and elbow strikes. Who called you to come to the street? If you need protection, why come to the street with people? If you want to be safe, go by car, sit at home. If you come to the street as a mass leader, you should not elbow everyone, he said.

Mandhana Says Captaincy Won't Be A New Challenge, Aims To Do Justice To Role
ODI World Cup: India's newly appointed women's cricket captain Smriti Mandhana said the full-time leadership role would not be an entirely new challenge for her, given her nearly decade-long experience as vice-captain, and expressed confidence that the additional responsibility would not affect her batting approach. Mandhana was appointed captain of the Indian women's team earlier this month, on the same day Harmanpreet Kaur stepped down from the role. The 29-year-old, who has been part of the Indian team since 2013, will lead the side in white-ball cricket going forward. I have been the vice-captain for the last almost 10 years. So, I have been part of the leadership role, and I wouldnt say it is an extremely new thing. But for sure, it is something to look forward to, and hopefully, I can do justice to the role, Mandhana told reporters on Wednesday. The left-handed batter also stressed that captaincy would not change the way she approaches her innings, adding that she would continue to play according to the team's requirements and trust her instincts. I have become a captain on the field; there should be no changes in my batting. My coach used to tell me when I was 15 years old, Whenever you bat, always think you are the captain. You always take that responsibility, and those things have never changed. If the ball is in the zone, I will still go for it. I will still play whatever (way) the team needs (me to), she said. Calling the series an exciting opportunity, Mandhana said India would also look to learn from their opponents while using the matches to establish their approach ahead of the upcoming Champions Trophy. The first bilateral (series) with Zimbabwe, I think, is very exciting. It is our first time playing with them. Sometimes, playing with Zimbabwe and all the Associate nations, it feels like you can learn a lot from them as well because they enjoy playing their cricket, she said. Sometimes, we get into a lot of things professionally. You can learn a lot from them. But again, we have six T20 matches before the Champions Trophy as an Indian team, so we will look to set standards as an Indian team (as to) how we approach the next three months leading up to the Champions Trophy, Mandhana added. The first bilateral (series) with Zimbabwe, I think, is very exciting. It is our first time playing with them.

Ensured punishment for accused in Ankita Bhandari's murder, says Uttarakhand's Dhami govt
Digital Desk | New Delhi/Dehradun, Oct 14 (IANS) As parents of Ankita Bhandari, who was allegedly murdered at a resort in Uttarakhand in 2022, staged a protest near the India Gate here on Wednesday, the Pushkar Singh Dhami-led government asserted that ensuring the sentencing the guilty to life imprisonment in the case proves that it worked with utmost seriousness from day one to ensure punishment for the perpetrators. The statement came as the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, went to meet Bhandari's family, who are staging a sit-in near the India Gate. An Uttarakhand government statement noted that the accused in the case were sent to jail within 24 hours, and a Special Investigation Team (SIT) was constituted to conduct a fair and thorough probe. Action was also taken against the accused under the Gangster Act. During the investigation, a detailed charge sheet spanning approximately 500 pages was prepared, incorporating crucial evidence and statements from around 100 witnesses. It noted that a strong case presented by the prosecution led to the repeated rejection of the accused's bail pleas and ensured that they remained behind bars throughout the trial. Subsequently, Bhandari's killers were sentenced to life imprisonment. Throughout the entire process, the state government accorded the highest priority to the sentiments of Bhandari's parents and family, the statement said. It mentioned that public prosecutors were changed three times in accordance with the family's requests. Furthermore, after her parents demanded a CBI inquiry, Chief Minister Dhami ordered the same. Further, the state government provided financial assistance of Rs 25 lakh to the family. Additionally, it also provided government jobs to the victim's brother and father. Moreover, Chief Minister Dhami had maintained that no matter how influential the perpetrator might be, they would be brought to justice and given the strictest punishment. Amidst questions raised regarding the investigation, the process was deemed satisfactory at the judicial level as well, and the prosecution ensured that the guilty were punished. Meanwhile, the Uttarakhand government accused certain Congress leaders and journalist Ashutosh Negi of attempting to spread confusion among the public by repeatedly raising questions about a so-called 'VIP'. If anyone possessed concrete facts or evidence regarding this matter, it should have been presented before the investigative agencies and the court. Making allegations outside the court for political gain and misleading the public is not a fight for justice, but rather the politicisation of a highly sensitive case involving Ankita, the statement said. It further said that the Dhami government did not limit itself to mere assurances in the fight to secure justice for Bhandari and instead, it stood firmly with the family, backing its stance with concrete action, robust legal representation, and decisive results.
