Beaver dams significantly slow floodwater flow in urban creeks, according to a new study. These natural structures store substantial amounts of water during moderate and large storms. While not eliminating floods, dams provide valuable time for managing water surges. The research highlights that beaver dams are most effective in smaller and moderate storm events. This study offers evidence for nature-based solutions in urban flood management strategies.

Three of family killed after car hits bike in Kerala, search underway for driver
Thrissur (Kerala), Sep 6 (IANS) In a tragic road accident in Kerala's Thrissur district, a couple and their three-year-old son were killed after a speeding car rammed into their motorcycle, officials said on Sunday. Police said that a search is currently underway to trace the driver of the car who fled from the spot following the accident. The deceased have been identified as Muneer, 35, his wife Shafna, 28, and their three-year-old son, Mohammed Ameen Aibak. They were residents of Panchavadi Thazhatheth House at Edakkazhiyur in Chavakkad. According to police, the accident occurred at around 11.30 pm on Saturday on the GuruvayurKunnamkulam road. The family was returning home after attending a wedding ceremony when they stopped their motorcycle by the roadside to attend a phone call. Meanwhile, a car bearing registration number KL-46-U-6001, travelling in the same direction, reportedly lost control and crashed into their motorcycle. The impact was so severe that all three occupants of the bike were thrown nearly 50 metres away. Though they were rushed to different private hospitals with serious injuries, none of them could be saved. Police officials said the car driver, who was allegedly returning from a bar in the Kunnamkulam area, fled the scene immediately after the accident. Two other people who were travelling in the car have been taken into police custody and are being questioned. Police have launched a search for the absconding driver. In a similar tragedy, eight engineering college students from Tamil Nadu were killed after the car in which they were travelling rammed into a stationary goods lorry on National Highway 66 at Kaipamangalam in Thrissur district around midnight on Friday. The accident occurred at Panambikkunnu Centre on a stretch of the national highway where construction work is underway. The Tamil Nadu-registered car, carrying eight people, crashed into the rear of the lorry, which had been parked near a diversion created as part of the ongoing highway works. The impact of the collision was severe, leaving the car completely mangled and trapping its occupants inside. Local residents and rescue personnel rushed to the spot after learning about the accident. The damaged vehicle had to be cut open to extricate the victims. Seven of the occupants are understood to have died at the accident site, while another victim was rushed to hospital but could not be saved.
India emerges as key diesel supplier to Europe: Report
New Delhi, Sep 6 (IANS) India is emerging as a crucial supplier of diesel to Europe as Russian exports remain severely constrained and US shipments begin to weaken, with Indian refiners accounting for around 60 per cent of diesel volumes transiting the Bab-el-Mandeb to Europe in August, according to energy intelligence firm Vortexa. Around 2,00,000 barrels per day (bpd) of diesel, or gasoil, transited the Bab-el-Mandeb in August on vessels bound for Europe. The volume was close to year-ago levels after flows through the strategically important shipping route had nearly stalled in March and April. India supplied roughly 60 per cent of the August volumes, highlighting the growing importance of Indian refineries to Europe's eastern diesel supply. India's position is underpinned by its large refining capacity. The country is the world's fourth-largest refiner, with installed capacity of 258.1 million tonnes per annum, significantly higher than domestic fuel demand. This surplus has enabled Indian refiners to remain major exporters of petroleum products. India exported 61.5 million tonnes of petroleum products during 2025-26, making it one of the world's largest exporters of refined fuels. Increasingly, these products are finding markets across Europe and, in some cases, Russia, as sanctions, refinery disruptions and changes in global trade routes reshape refined-product flows. However, the sustainability of India's growing role in Europe's diesel market is coming under scrutiny as crude supplies into the country tighten. Crude and condensate shipments into India fell for a second consecutive month in August to around 3.8 million bpd, compared with 4.8 million bpd a year earlier, Vortexa data showed. The pressure on European diesel supplies is particularly pronounced because Russian exports, once a major source of the region's supply, have remained largely absent. Russia's seaborne diesel and gasoil exports averaged only around 1,50,000 bpd during the first 25 days of August, down by about 6,10,000 bpd from a year earlier and 81 per cent below the five-year seasonal average, according to Vortexa. Even the lifting or partial relaxation of Russia's diesel export restrictions from September 1 may not result in an immediate recovery in supplies. Continued Ukrainian drone attacks have disrupted Russian refineries and export infrastructure, with 32 attacks on refineries recorded during July and August.

US Open: Zverev beats Tabilo; Tien wins five-set marathon against Mensik to enter Rd-4
New York, Sep 6 (IANS) Top-seeded German Alexander Zverev ousted Alejandro Tabilo to reach the fourth round of the 2026 US Open with a straight-set win of 6-2, 7-6 (2), 6-2 at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Zverev was coming off two marathon five-set matches, both of which ended in the wee hours of the New York City night. But he made relatively quick work of Chiles Tabilo. After taking nine hours and 26 minutes to win his first two matches, he brushed aside Tabilo in 2 hours and 26 minutes. After taking the first set, Zverev had some scratchy moments in the second set, but the reigning Roland Garros champion came through when it counted to deny Tabilo two set points. Zverev saved both set points before breaking Tabilos serve to take a 6-5 lead, only for the Chilean to break back and force a tie-break as Zverevs serve woes persisted. Yet the 29-year-old remained patient and clinched the set with a composed tie-break display. The German carried that momentum into the third set, earning a decisive break at 3-2, capitalising on Tabilo's inconsistency. Zverev continued to apply pressure from the baseline and did not allow the Chilean back into the set, eventually closing out the victory in two hours and 26 minutes to reach the fourth round in New York for the sixth time in his career, ATP reports. Zverev set up a fourth-round clash with 25th seed Luciano Darderi, who dispatched Australian wild card Dane Sweeny 6-4, 6-3, 6-3 to reach the fourth round at the hard-court major for the first time in his career. Elsewhere, fourth-seeded American Learner Tien prevailed 6-3, 1-6, 6-7(2), 6-3, 6-4 in a three-hour, 24-minute five-set battle at Louis Armstrong Stadium to edge Jakub Mensik, continuing a career-best run at his home Grand Slam. With the win, the 20-year-old became the youngest American to reach the US Open fourth round, matching Andy Roddicks record. Roddick was also 20 when he reached that stage at the 2002 US Open. Tien will next face former World No. 8 Karen Khachanov, who has eased past Benjamin Bonzi 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 to reach the fourth round for the first time since 2022, when he reached the last four before falling to Casper Ruud.
US Open: Gauff beats Bucsa, sets up all-American clash with Jovic
New York, Sep 6 (IANS) Coco Gauff kept her US Open campaign on track with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Cristina Bucsa on Saturday, reaching the fourth round for a fifth consecutive year and extending her winning streak to nine matches. The fourth seed was made to work early after Bucsa raced to a 3-1 lead at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Gauff responded by winning five of the next six games, closing out the opening set with a big serve that the Spaniard could not return. The second set remained tight until Gauff broke for a 4-3 advantage. Bucsa immediately levelled, but Gauff won the final eight points of the match to seal her place in the last 16. It was not Gauffs cleanest performance. She landed fewer than half of her first serves and served six double faults, but remained effective behind her first delivery, winning 20 of 27 points when it landed. Her defence and movement again proved decisive, while she converted four of nine break-point chances and won 15 of 22 points at the net. Gauff acknowledged that she initially struggled to find her rhythm in the daytime conditions but adjusted as the match progressed. Shes a tricky player. She can sometimes speed it up and slow it down. So it was tough for me to get a rhythm, but Im just happy with how I fought through even when I wasnt playing my best. The result continues an impressive run for Gauff, who won the Cincinnati title last month. Eight of her nine victories during the streak have come in straight sets. Her next challenge will be another American teenager, Iva Jovic, who earned her first appearance in the US Open fourth round by beating Alexandra Eala 7-5, 3-6, 7-5 in a three-hour battle on Arthur Ashe Stadium. Gauff and Jovic have already met once this year, with Gauff prevailing 5-7, 7-5, 6-2 on clay in Rome. The winner of their rematch will advance to the quarter-finals, with Gauff seeking her first US Open quarter-final appearance since 2023.

According to Water Resources Department data recorded between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. on Sunday, the Ganga remained above the danger mark at several major locations in Bihar. At Buxar, the Ganga was recorded 0.08 metres above the danger mark, although the water level was showing a declining trend.

Women's Asia Cup: Very Important To Stick To Our Strengths, Says Charani After India Beat Pakistan
T20 Asia Cup: India spinner N Sree Charani emphasised the importance of sticking to the teams strengths on the difficult pitches at the ongoing Womens T20 Asia Cup, after Indias spin attack dismantled Pakistan to secure a comfortable seven-wicket victory here on Saturday. Charani and Prema Rawat led Indias bowling attack with three wickets each as Pakistan were bowled out for just 55 off 18.1 overs. India then chased the target in just 8.4 overs to record their fifth consecutive T20I victory over their arch-rivals. With the pitches offering grip and enabling sharp turn, Indias spinners repeatedly deceived Pakistans batters with flight, drift and disciplined lengths. Charani returned excellent figures of 3-7 from her four overs, while Rawat finished with 3-9. In a video shared by the BCCI, Charani said the conditions made it particularly important for Indian players to rely on their strengths rather than deviate from their established approach. The learnings are the same. You just need to stick to your strengths here because of the pitches that we are playing. Its crucial to stick to our strengths. If we follow that, then we will do well going forward, she said. The youngster also praised Rawat, who delivered a match-winning spell alongside her, with the duo accounting for six of Pakistans 10 wickets. I didnt like her wicket, but I liked her celebration, Charani said of Rawat. Charani also credited Indias coach, Avishkar Salvi, with helping the players prepare for various match situations during practice. It is simple. Avi, sir, also tells us in the practices whenever we go; he tells us to just do reps on the ball. He watches us. He also gives us inputs, whatever the situation is, she said. If we are doing good, then he doesnt tell us anything. He just tells us that we are doing good. If anything is going wrong, then he will be the first person to come to us. He will guide us, she added. Rawat, who also picked up three wickets, said repeatedly creating pressure situations during practice had helped her become more comfortable on the international stage. It is actually special for me because of all the matches I have played, like the WPL debut, the World Cup debut, and my India debut, and the whole crowd was there. So, I was not ready for the pressure. I was under a lot of pressure when I made my debut, said Rawat. But when I go back for practice, I create that situation. So, because of that, I am used to it now. So, it feels good. Rawat also underlined the importance of carrying Indias winning momentum into the next stage of the tournament. Actually, to be honest, the next stage of winning is very important because if we take this confidence forward, it will give us more confidence. We dont have to get used to it because we have achieved three wins. So, when we move forward in the matches, it will help us a lot, she said. Rawat also underlined the importance of carrying Indias winning momentum into the next stage of the tournament.

Two Ugandan nationals apprehended in Delhi's Uttam Nagar for overstaying in India
New Delhi, Sep 6 (IANS) Two Ugandan nationals have been apprehended in Delhi's Uttam Nagar area for overstaying in India, officials said on Sunday, adding that the deportation process has now been initiated. According to the officials, the action was taken as part of a special drive launched by the Delhi Police to identify and verify foreign nationals who have overstayed their permitted period of stay in the country. The drive is also aimed at checking the status of foreign nationals against whom criminal cases have been registered. As per the directions of Dwarka District DCP Kushal Pal Singh, and under the supervision of ACP/Dabri, the team of Police Station Uttam Nagar, headed by the SHO, was tasked with tracing foreign nationals who were overstaying in India and verifying the status of those facing criminal cases. Accordingly, a team from Uttam Nagar Police Station carried out checking and verification of foreign nationals residing in the area. During the operation, the police team visited the area and interacted with local residents to gather information and develop intelligence regarding foreign nationals staying in the locality. Subsequently, based on inputs received through technical surveillance and human intelligence, the team traced and apprehended two foreign nationals from the Uttam Nagar area. The two women were identified as Doreen Ampurire and Gorret Adong. Following their apprehension, the two foreign nationals were questioned in detail by the police regarding their stay in India. However, during interrogation and verification, they failed to produce valid legal documents or other authorised papers to establish that their stay in the country was lawful. The police subsequently carried out further verification of the two foreign nationals and initiated the required legal procedure. After completion of the initial interrogation and verification process, both apprehended Ugandan nationals were produced before the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO), Delhi. The FRRO authorities conducted proper verification of the foreign nationals and, following the process, the two women were sent to the detention centre at Shahzada Bagh's Sewa Sadan in Sarai Rohilla. Officials said the deportation process is underway following the verification and necessary proceedings by the authorities concerned. The Delhi Police said that they have intensified verification of foreign nationals as part of the ongoing special drive to identify individuals who have overstayed their permitted period in India and to ascertain the status of foreigners involved in or facing criminal cases.

Kolkata, Sep 6 (IANS) Police in West Bengal's South 24 Parganas have started an investigation against Trinamool Congress lawmaker from Canning (Paschim), Paresh Ram Das, following a complaint of rape filed against him. A state police official said that the woman had lodged a complaint in the matter with the sub-division police officer (SDPO) of Canning, and on its basis, an investigation had been initiated by the Baruipur police. In her complaint, the woman said that after the incident took place in 2023, she attempted to register a complaint with the police then only. However, she alleged that the police then refused to entertain her complaint and, in addition, she and her family members faced harassment from the Trinamool legislator and his associates for approaching the police. Now, with the change in regime in West Bengal, she had acquired the courage to proceed in the matter again, she said. The victim alleged that Das demanded Rs 4 lakh from her husband before the 2023 panchayat elections, promising to get him a ticket for the polls. The complainant claimed that when she went to the old age home set up by the MLA to deliver the money to him, as promised by her husband, she was subjected to physical harassment. The victim alleged that after extorting Rs 4 lakh from her, the legislator locked her in her house and raped her. She also complained that even though she went to the Canning Police Station to file a complaint, no FIR was filed against the accused legislator. In addition to that, the victim complained that Das and his associates attacked her house for approaching the police. She also alleged that his associates carried out a bomb attack on her house. According to district police sources, the Canning Police Station has registered a rape case based on the woman's complaint and started an investigation in the matter. Das, however, has claimed that there was a conspiracy to tarnish his image and an attempt to implicate him in a false case.

Oil price, US jobs data, rising bond yields likely to drive Indian stock market next week
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) The Indian stock market is likely to remain sensitive to global cues next week, with crude oil prices, rising bond yields, stronger-than-expected US jobs data and foreign investor flows emerging as key factors that could shape investor sentiment. Renewed tensions between the US and Iran, uncertainty over the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and shifting expectations around US interest rates are expected to keep volatility elevated. The benchmark indices ended higher on Friday, but surrendered most of their intra-day gains and closed near the day's lows after the closing auction session (CAS). The Sensex gained 363 points to close at 76,515, while the Nifty rose more than 24 points to finish below the 23,898 mark. The broader market performance remained mixed, with the Nifty Midcap 100 slipping into negative territory, while the Nifty Smallcap 100 managed to end in the green. One of the biggest concerns for investors heading into the new week is the renewed rise in crude oil prices. Oil gained around 8 per cent during the week after the US and Iran exchanged strikes following a month-long lull, reviving fears of a supply disruption as the Strait of Hormuz remains shut for oil transit. The prolonged disruption has also prompted a reassessment of crude price expectations. Citi has raised its average Brent crude price forecast for the third quarter to $86 a barrel from its earlier estimate of $80, citing expectations of a longer-than-anticipated timeline for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Higher oil prices could put additional pressure on inflation and corporate costs in oil-importing economies such as India. Investors will therefore closely monitor developments in the Middle East and any indications of when normal oil shipments through the strategic waterway could resume. Another major concern is the sharp rise in global bond yields. A bond-market selloff of a scale not seen in decades has pushed yields across several major economies to multi-year highs. Markets are currently dealing with a combination of oil-driven inflation, expectations of tighter monetary policy and deteriorating fiscal conditions. The rise in crude prices and fuel costs has increased inflationary pressures while also pushing up government borrowing costs globally. At the same time, investors are assessing the possibility that tighter financial conditions could weigh on economic growth if there is no meaningful easing in inflationary pressures. US monetary policy expectations could add another layer of volatility. A stronger-than-expected US jobs report has brought the possibility of a September interest-rate hike back into focus, creating a difficult policy choice for Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh amid pressure from US President Donald Trump for lower borrowing costs. US employers added 162,000 jobs in August, almost three times the number expected by economists. The labour force participation rate also increased to 61.6 per cent. Despite the larger pool of available workers, the unemployment rate remained at 4.1 per cent.

Pakistan Are The Best Side In This Asia Cup To Lift The Trophy: Wahab Riaz
Asia Cup: After a humiliating defeat at the hands of India in the Womens Asia Cup league-stage match in Dubai on Saturday, Pakistan team mentor Wahab Riaz said his side remains the favourites to lift the trophy. Playing their 200th T20I, Pakistan struggled to find momentum as India implemented a spin-choke to dismiss them for a record-low T20I score of 55. Despite captain Fatima Sana (3/17) leading Pakistan's resistance with three early wickets, India easily achieved the 56-run target, extending their winning streak in the Women's Asia Cup 2026 and maintaining top spot in Group A. I believe that all the players in our team are very skilful, and they just need to trust themselves. Our next match is against Hong Kong. We will go back and discuss what we did wrong against India. We wont commit the same mistakes. I still believe Pakistan is the best side in this Asia Cup to lift the trophy because the conditions really suit us, Riaz told reporters after the loss. Former captain Sana Mir had criticised the Pakistan team management for making wholesale changes to the team for the Womens Asia Cup, leaving out seven players. However, Riaz brushed aside such criticism, saying the players left out were not performing well and that changes were made to bring in new faces, keeping the future in mind. Sana Mir has her own opinion. I have nothing to do with that opinion. We have made changes with the future in mind. The players who were playing before have played a lot of World Cups and Asia Cups but we werent getting the results. So it was time to go with new faces and bring new girls into the mix to build the team for the upcoming tournaments, Riaz said.

Search on for two missing youths in Veligonda feeder canal in Andhra
Amaravati, Sep 6 (IANS) Rescue teams continued the search for two youths who went missing in the Veligonda Project feeder canal in Andhra Pradesh's Markapuram district, officials said on Sunday. Minister for Water Resources Nimmala Ramanaidu on Sunday expressed shock over the disappearance of the two youths from Katakani Palle. He spoke to the District Collector and the Superintendent of Police (SP) regarding the incident. The minister ordered the officials to intensify search operations to locate the bodies of the youths. Ramanaidu stated that as the water flows rapidly in the feeder canal, no one should venture into the water. The public must remain vigilant, as the bed of Nallamala Sagar is uneven, making it difficult to gauge the depth at any given point, he said. He directed police and revenue officials to arrange for special security measures at the feeder canal and Nallamala Sagar. The incident in the Veligonda Project feeder canal occurred on Saturday evening. Two youths had gone to see the water in the feeder canal of the recently inaugurated project and entered the water. As one of them was getting swept away due to the strong flow, the other tried to save him, but in the process, both were washed away. The missing youths were identified as Koppala Raj Kumar and Kuppala Vinay Kumar, belonging to the same family. Alerted by the locals, police and firefighting personnel launched a search operation. The search operation was called off late in the evening due to darkness. Police and firefighting personnel, with the help of expert swimmers, resumed the search operation on Sunday morning. The Veligonda project's first phase was inaugurated by Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on August 31. Veligonda project envisages diverting Krishna River water from the Srisailam Reservoir to the Nallamala Sagar through gravity, from where the water will be distributed through a network of canals to meet irrigation and drinking water requirements.
Pakistan are still the best team to win the Womens Asia Cup, according to team mentor Wahab Riaz, despite their crushing defeat against India and a record-low T20I score. Riaz urged the players to trust themselves, learn from their mistakes and bounce back in their next match against Hong Kong. With Pakistan also making strategic squad changes with future tournaments in mind, the team will be looking to revive its campaign and avoid a group-stage exit.
