It all started with the opposition political parties of India, especially Congress, Shiv Sena (UBT), and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). The boycott came after the April 22 Pahalgam terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir that killed 26 people.

Donald Trump's ally Charlie Kirk, who was shot dead in Utah on September 10, was warned that there was a "100 per cent" chance he would be killed.

Are you an introvert, an extrovert, an ambivert, or something completely different? Turns out there's a new personality type on the block that has remained unheard of in all the noise. An American psychiatrist has coined a new term, "otroverts," for a select group of people who ironically don't do that well in group settings. If you've ever found yourself standing at a party, wondering why everyone else seems to belong while you don't, you might be what psychiatrist Dr Rami Kaminski calls an "otrovert." No, we're not talking about introverts who would rather stay at home, read a book, than go out and participate in group activities. Here's all you need to know about "otroverts".

‘The cries of this widow will echo around the world’: Charlie Kirk’s wife Erika Frantzve vows Turning Point USA will continue

It took less than 33 hours to identify and arrest the man suspected of shooting and killing conservative commentator Charlie Kirk at a Utah Valley University event on Wednesday (September 10). The news traveled quickly — not just through traditional media channels, but across the virtual corridors of Twitter, where an entirely different story was unfolding. The suspect’s name is Tyler Robinson. He’s 22 years old. A local. A gun owner. A practicing Christian. A self-identified conservative and registered Republican. And in the eyes of the internet, particularly the progressive left, his identity was the story.&nbsp;He was, as one viral post put it: “Not Black. Not Trans. Not Muslim. Not an Immigrant. Not a Democrat.” The final line delivered the punch: “Meet Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson. A white Christian, Conservative, Republican male with a gun... again.” That phrasing — both accusatory and exhausted — ricocheted across Twitter in a matter of hours, shared thousands of times. To many, it wasn't just a comment about the shooting, but about what America chooses to see — or turns a blind eye to.<h3>A Shocking Moment in Utah</h3>The shooting occurred during a stop on Turning Point USA’s “American Comeback Tour.” Charlie Kirk, the group’s founder and a regular presence in conservative media, was answering a question about mass shootings when a sniper’s bullet struck him in the neck. He collapsed on stage. Paramedics rushed him to the hospital. He died shortly afterward. Within hours, the FBI released surveillance footage of a man fleeing a rooftop near the venue. Days later, forensic evidence and a tip from Robinson’s own family pointed investigators directly to him. According to multiple reports, including police affidavits, Robinson allegedly confessed or implied guilt to a friend, and Discord messages obtained through his roommate detail a premeditated plan: retrieving a weapon from a drop point, changing clothes, leaving a written manifesto of sorts engraved onto bullet casings.&nbsp;Those bullet casings, found at the scene, carried disturbing messages: “Hey fascist, catch.” Others referenced anti-fascist symbols and memes from online subcultures. It seemed to offer motive. But whether it was political ideology, personal obsession, or a mix of both that drove him remains under investigation.<h3>The Internet Reacts — And Divides</h3>While police processed evidence and the justice system began to move, Twitter exploded. The viral posts came first. Then came the debate. Was this an act of political terror? A lone-wolf extremist? A targeted assassination? Yet more pressing to many was the uncomfortable truth of who the shooter was — and how differently he might have been treated if he hadn’t been white, Christian, or conservative.&nbsp;For some, the case was seen as a painful reversal of common media tropes. "If this shooter were Muslim, we’d already be hearing about terror networks,” one user wrote. "If he were Black, we’d see mugshots plastered everywhere. If trans, we’d hear about mental illness. But this? This is being treated like a freak incident. Like he doesn’t represent anyone."&nbsp;Others pushed back, arguing that justice was moving swiftly and without regard for politics. “You don’t stop extremism by flipping the bias in the other direction,” one post read. “Every act of violence is wrong — regardless of who commits it.” But beneath the noise, a deeper frustration simmered: a belief that acts of violence are filtered through a lens of identity. When someone from a marginalized group commits a crime, the group is often asked to explain or apologise. But when it’s a white conservative Christian male, the crime is too often treated as an anomaly — never reflective of broader ideologies or systemic rot.<h3>A Case That Challenges the Narrative</h3>The Tyler Robinson case, then, has become more than just a criminal proceeding. It has become a cultural litmus test. Charlie Kirk was a divisive figure. To some, he was a champion of free speech and traditional values. To others, he was a provocateur who courted controversy and stoked division. His death only deepens the polarization. But the identity of his alleged killer complicates the picture even further. If a Democrat had pulled the trigger, conservative media would have declared it proof of leftist violence. If the shooter had been Muslim, the word “terrorism” would be unavoidable. If he had been trans, the headlines would be different — crueler, perhaps, and more speculative.&nbsp;But Tyler Robinson? A man whose demographics align more with Kirk’s followers than his critics? That challenges the script. And in doing so, it reveals just how dependent American political discourse has become on narratives of identity.<h3>Where Does This Go From Here?</h3>Legally, the case is in its early stages. Prosecutors have yet to confirm whether they will pursue terrorism or hate-crime enhancements. Socially, however, the verdict is already being debated — not in courtrooms, but in comment threads. It’s tempting to make Tyler Robinson a symbol. A warning about extremism. A representation of how no community — no matter how “mainstream” — is immune to radicalization. But it’s just as dangerous to let identity dictate outrage. Justice requires consistency. And yet, consistency is precisely what so many feel is missing.&nbsp;The shooting of Charlie Kirk was a political assassination. That phrase itself is already controversial. Some say it exaggerates. Others say it doesn’t go far enough. But what’s undeniable is this: the identities involved — the shooter’s and the victim’s — have shaped not just how the public is reacting, but how they are even willing to talk about it.<h2>See social media reactions below</h2>

Amid a week marked by intense political turmoil, Nepal’s GenZ protesters stormed the parliament building, compelling Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli to step down. Their anger extended beyond political institutions to symbols of affluence—luxury hotels, skyscrapers, and upscale residences became targets.

He alleged that China deployed the lethal weapon during a border dispute five years ago. The Senator refrained from using the exact name of the dispute, but he mentioned the time frame, as per which he must be referring to the 2020 Galwan Valley clash.&nbsp;Hagerty said, “China and India have a long history of grievances and distrust. Barely five years ago, China and India were fighting over a disputed border, and China used an electromagnetic weapon to literally melt Indian soldiers."&nbsp;This was part of a continuous attempt by America to create chaos between India and China, following both nations' efforts to restore their political relations. This came after US President Donald Trump imposed a heavy tariff on India. After this, Trump remarked that the US had “lost India to darkest China". Later on, he backtracked from his words and called New Delhi an important partner.

The shocking daylight murder of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk is being blamed by several leaders and online commentators on extreme ‘woke’ ideologies.

Charlie Kirk’s killing is being blamed on extreme ‘woke’ ideologies. What is woke and wokism?

Charlie Kirk, a well-known conservative commentator and close ally of US President Donald Trump, was tragically killed in a shooting at a Utah college event on Wednesday (September 10). Earlier this year, Kirk weighed in on the escalating military tensions between India and Pakistan, warning the United States against direct involvement in the conflict.&nbsp;In a May podcast titled, “What the Heck is Going on in India!”, Kirk discussed the heightened hostilities following the Pahalgam terror attack and India’s retaliatory Operation Sindoor, which targeted terrorist camps within Pakistan and Pakistan Occupied Kashmir. He described the two countries as being dangerously close to war. Kirk criticised Pakistan for harboring terrorists, calling it a “deceptive actor,” while pointing to the anger in India’s majority Hindu population following the attack. He referenced reports of air and missile strikes on multiple sites in Pakistan, resulting in casualties and aircraft losses on both sides. While acknowledging that both India and Pakistan are nuclear-armed nations, Kirk argued that the concept of mutually assured destruction would likely prevent any nuclear escalation.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/trending/charlie-kirk-killing-conspiracy-theories-flood-internet-epstein-letter-diversion-tactic-strange-how-they-didn-t-find-the-shooter-1757661072275">Charlie Kirk killing conspiracy theories flood internet: Epstein 'letter' diversion tactic?

A doctor in Manchester, United Kingdom, was caught having sex with a nurse in the operating theatre while a patient lay on the table under anaesthetic. A medical tribunal was informed about the shocking incident involving Dr Suhail Anjum and an unnamed nurse. One of their colleagues at the Tameside Hospital in Ashton-under-Lyne walked in on them in a “compromising position”, The Independent reported. Andrew Molloy, representing the General Medical Council (GMC), said that Dr Anjum was the anaesthetist for five cases in theatre 5 on September 16, 2023. Midway through the third case, he asked another nursing colleague to keep a check on the male patient so he could take a comfort break. However, he went to another operating theatre where he had sex with the nurse identified as Nurse C. &nbsp;Molloy said that Nurse NT caught them in the act after entering theatre eight, and “encountered Dr Anjum and Nurse C in a compromising position”.

He informed the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS), hearing the matter, that he quit Tameside hospital in February 2024 and had returned to his hometown in Pakistan, The Independent reported. He called it a “one-off error of judgment” and stated that he wanted to resume his career in the UK. “It was quite shameful, to say the least. I only have myself to blame," he said. “I let down everybody, not just my patient and myself, but the trust and how it would look."&nbsp;Dr Anjum was a married man at the time, and apologised for the transgression. He told the tribunal that it was “unfair” to ask the anaesthetic nurse to cover for him, while admitting that his actions put Nurse NT in an “awkward position”. “I offer my sincere apologies to everyone involved, and I want the opportunity to put this right.” Dr Anjum also told the members that he was going through a stressful time following the birth of his youngest daughter in January that year. “It took a toll on my personal life, my mental health and wellbeing, and my work at the hospital.” Further hearing on the case will happen on Friday. &nbsp;

By the end of the day, the circus of his philosophical wanderings, world‑history lectures, and existential questions were sidelined. Here is how the courtroom drama unfolded. What did the would-be assassin Ryan Routh do? In September 2024, when Trump was still a presidential candidate, Routh was spotted hiding in the bushes near the sixth hole of Trump’s golf course. He had a rifle barrel protruding from foliage. Secret Service opened fire and captured him. Also read: Trump gunman Ryan Routh charged with attempted assassination by prosecutors Ryan Routh court appearance At his appearance in a federal court in Florida, the 59-year old went into a philosophical rant about the “origin of humankind,” the settlement of the American West, foreign wars, and moral decay. Representing himself in the case, Routh invoked Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Putin. He denounced modern trials for “eliminating all that is human.” https://www.wionews.com/videos/ex-fbi-chief-accused-of-plotting-trumps-assassination-9076887/embed At one point, he talked about ‘beauty of hearthstones worn smooth’ by children, and non-violence. When Judge Aileen Cannon, the Trump‑appointed district judge, cut him short, he said, “This case means absolutely nothing. A life has been lived to the fullest.” Also read: Second Trump assassination attempt: Suspect Ryan Routh charged with gun crimes Judge gave Routh warnings before silencing him Cannon warned Routh to “stay within the bounds” before shutting his opening statement. She told him, “You do not have an unlimited license to go forward to make a mockery of the dignity of this courtroom.” She said Routh veered so far off topic into foreign policy, philosophy (“what happened to Homo erectus,” etc) that she cannot allow more.

Security footage; mobile phone records and a defendant’s note admitting intent were shared. By the end of the day, the circus had been cut short. Judge Cannon made clear that the job was to decide if Routh plotted to kill Trump, not to judge the meaning of life or global politics.

Ryan Routh, accused of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump, turned his trial into a chaotic spectacle with rambling philosophical monologues. Judge Aileen Cannon swiftly shut him down for mocking the court. Here is what happened

A wild conspiracy theory is floating online following the killing of Charlie Kirk, a Trump ally. People on social media think that the timing of the incident is "too convenient" and are linking it to the infamous "birthday letter" allegedly sent by the president to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. A viral post online claims that Kirk's assassination was carried out by his "own friends to divert attention from #that letter." This letter is the one House Democrats made public on September 8. It was allegedly sent by President Trump as a birthday wish to the late sex trafficker. The letter has the outline of a woman's body and bears the words, “Voice Over: There must be more to life than having everything.” It then carries words in an apparent conversation between the two. It ends with the words, “A pal is a wonderful thing, And may every day be another wonderful secret.” Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/no-name-or-location-authorities-release-new-video-of-person-of-interest-escaping-in-charlie-kirk-shooting-site-1757650437390">No name or location: Authorities release new video of person of interest escaping Charlie Kirk shooting site</a>&nbsp;The viral post on the conspiracy theory reads, “Imma be a conspiracy theorist and say that he was gunned down by his own friends to divert the attention from #that letter."

<h2>Conspiracy theories about Charlie Kirk's assassination</h2>“It honestly feels like every time something messy comes up with these people, something ‘bigger’ and way louder suddenly happens to distract everyone. Like clockwork,” a user wrote. Another added, "When you zoom out, the timing always feels a little too convenient. These ‘distractions’ always seem to arrive right when the heat is on." Others are wondering why the person who killed Kirk hasn't been found till now, claiming this is another clue that something is amiss. "How long did it take them to find the shooter who almost had the president?" a user asked on X, with another quipping, "Strange how they didn't find the shooter."&nbsp;https://www.wionews.com/videos/charlie-kirk-shooting-enhanced-images-video-of-suspect-released-authorities-urge-public-s-help-1757660716878/embed&nbsp;Other points being raised include the clean shot that killed Kirk on stage in Utah. “I wouldn’t be surprised… it was a very clean professional shot and they still haven’t caught the shooter,” a person wrote on X, hinting that only a professional shooter could have done that. Notably, reports suggest that the shot was made from 200 yards away. However, former Navy SEAL sniper, Brandon Webb, says "two hundred yards is a very easy shot" and snipers "routinely push past 1,000 yards."&nbsp;Meanwhile, there were others who slammed these people for making such “absurd” claims.

The icy region under the Arctic Ocean is known to trap an organism which scientists long believed turned dormant. Since the frozen region had caught it, one would assume the organism wouldn't remain active anymore. However, a new study has found that this is not the case. In fact, the vast community of these creatures is alive and even moving, Discover Wildlife reported. This is nothing but microscopic algae known as diatoms that line the frozen undersurface in the Arctic. The research, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, states that despite being trapped inside ice, these algae haven't gone cold turkey. The study noted that temperatures in this region can drop as low as –15 degrees Celsius, yet this has not stopped the algae from being active.

A woman in Florida gave birth to an unusually large baby on September 3. Daniella Hines was surprised to see that she had delivered a baby boy who weighed 13 pounds, 15 ounces ( approx 6.2 kg). The newborn became an instant celebrity at BayCare’s St. Joseph's Hospital-South in Riverview. After all, it is not every day that one gets to see such a big baby. A typical newborn weighs around 7 lb, making Hines' boy Annan nearly double that of a regular baby. “He was the talk of the maternity ward!” Hines, 40, tells TODAY.com. The hospital told the broadcaster that Annan is the biggest baby ever born at the hospital, according to past records. Both Hines and her husband, Andre Sr, are over 6 feet tall.

A Congressional hearing on September 9 saw a video showing an Unidentified Anomalous Object (UAP) being hit by the Hellfire missile shot from an MQ-9 Reaper drone. Despite being struck, the object continues to move, as seen in the video. This footage was shared by Rep. Eric Burlison, who got it from an anonymous whistleblower. But was it really a UFO? Or could it be a man-made weapon? Harvard scientist Avi Loeb, who is known for his views on extraterrestrial life, thinks that this UAP was a drone fired by Yemen towards Israel. The video is dated October 30, 2024 and was shot off the coast of Yemen, Loeb says. The MQ-9 Reaper remotely piloted aircraft is armed with a variety of weapons, including AGM-114 Hellfire missiles. He cited news reports to state that on October 29, the Yemeni Houthis announced that they had attacked Southern Israel with multiple drones. Loeb says that this reasonably hints at the possibility that this UAP was a drone.

<h2>Why Loeb thinks it is not an alien UFO</h2> The reason why he does not think this object is of extraterrestrial origin is that its size is consistent with the Samad drones the Houthis use. Also, he points to its speed and movement. Loeb wrote in his blog that at about 20 seconds in the video, the Hellfire missile hits the object, but only manages to scrape off a few pieces as the warhead failed to detonate. He says that given the size and dimension of the Hellfire missile, which has a mass of about 45 kilograms, the UAP appears to be "a few meters in size." He says this is about the same scale as the Samad drones, which weigh "about 200 kilograms, about 4.4 times larger than the mass of the Hellfire missile."

Earth has been sharing its orbit with a cosmic body for 60 years. We have only now seen it</a>&nbsp;However, the missile moves much faster than the drone. He says that looking at the video, the Hellfire missile "is moving about 6 times faster than the target in the video’s projection. The known speed of the Samad drones goes up to about 70 meters per second, which is about a sixth of the speed of a Hellfire missile." Loeb says going by this data, the size and speed of the UAP hints at the likelihood that it wasn't a UFO, but a Samad drone launched by the Houthis.

Thousands of barrels dumped off the coast of Southern California between the 1930s and 70s are creating strange halos around them. Scientists have been working to figure out what's happening with them and what their contents are. These barrels were discovered in the deep waters of the San Pedro Basin, near Los Angeles, in 2021. The assumption was that they contained DDT, a toxic pesticide that was banned in 1972. However, studies were carried out to reveal what's in them. One such analysis has revealed that the barrels do not contain DDT. Researchers say there is some kind of caustic alkali waste, but what exactly is not clear. Whatever this substance is, it's making eerie halos on the ocean floor as it leeches deep inside. Researchers retrieved samples from the barrels using the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) SuBastian. An analysis of the samples showed the absence of anything acidic. Besides this, the sediment around the barrels had hardened like concrete and was extremely alkaline.Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/trending/511-billion-barrels-of-oil-discovered-in-antarctica-can-trigger-world-war-1752036274384">511 billion barrels of oil discovered in Antarctica can trigger World War.
