From TikTok sensation to ICE detention: Khaby Lame leaves US after immigration crackdown - Controversial row EXPLAINED

Days after announcing the national polls date, Bangladesh interim leader Muhammad Yunus said that there was "no way" he wanted to continue in power after the polls in April next year. While answering questions at London's foreign policy think tank Chatham House, Yunus dismissed talks of him joining the government after polls.&nbsp;When asked if he was seeking any political post, the 84-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner said there was "no way" he would do that, waving his hands in the air for emphasis. He added that his aim was to ensure a smooth transition of power.&nbsp;"I think none of our cabinet members would like to do that, not only me", he added. "Our job is to make sure that the transition is managed well, and that people are happy when we hand over power to the elected government…So we want to make sure that the election is right, that is a very critical factor for us. If the election is wrong, this thing will never be solved again".&nbsp;Yunus took over as the interim head of Bangladesh in August 2024 after large-scale protests overthrew Sheikh Hasina's government and she was forced to flee the country.&nbsp;&nbsp;Stating that the government under him wants to create a new Bangladesh, Yunus added that a "big package" of proposals will be unveiled next month. He called this as "July Charter" and said that it would mark one year since the students launched the demonstrations that toppled Hasina.The aim of the package was to overhaul democratic institutions after Hasina's tenure, he said. "We want to say goodbye to the old Bangladesh and create a new Bangladesh", Yunus said.&nbsp;In response to a question about the Bangladesh Awami League, Yunus said that there is a debate over whether the Awami League can truly be called a political party when it is accused of killing young people, making citizens disappear and stealing public money. "Would you still call it a political party? So, that's a debate, not a judgement," he said.&nbsp;Amid mounting pressure, Yunus on June 6 announced that national elections will be held in April next year. Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), the party seen as the election frontrunner in Bangladesh has rejected Muhammad Yunus' new dates for polls, reiterating its demands for December elections. The BNP listed several roadblocks that could be faced if elections are held in April 2026 and added that Yunus has not provided satisfactory reasoning as to why polls cannot be held this year.

He added that his aim was to ensure a smooth transition of power. "I think none of our cabinet members would like to do that, not only me", he added. "Our job is to make sure that the transition is managed well, and that people are happy when we hand over power to the elected government…So we want to make sure that the election is right, that is a very critical factor for us. If the election is wrong, this thing will never be solved again". Yunus took over as the interim head of Bangladesh in August 2024 after large-scale protests overthrew Sheikh Hasina's government and she was forced to flee the country. Stating that the government under him wants to create a new Bangladesh, Yunus added that a "big package" of proposals will be unveiled next month. He called this as "July Charter" and said that it would mark one year since the students launched the demonstrations that toppled Hasina. The aim of the package was to overhaul democratic institutions after Hasina's tenure, he said. "We want to say goodbye to the old Bangladesh and create a new Bangladesh", Yunus said. In response to a question about the Bangladesh Awami League, Yunus said that there is a debate over whether the Awami League can truly be called a political party when it is accused of killing young people, making citizens disappear and stealing public money. "Would you still call it a political party? So, that's a debate, not a judgement," he said. Amid mounting pressure, Yunus on June 6 announced that national elections will be held in April next year. Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), the party seen as the election frontrunner in Bangladesh has rejected Muhammad Yunus' new dates for polls, reiterating its demands for December elections. The BNP listed several roadblocks that could be faced if elections are held in April 2026 and added that Yunus has not provided satisfactory reasoning as to why polls cannot be held this year.

Ukraine’s internal security agency, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), has released a new video with more details of its mass drone strikes on Russia’s strategic aviation assets under Operation Spider Web earlier this month. &nbsp;The Operation Spider Web, carried out on June 1, involved 117 drones that were hidden in trucks across Russia and deployed against four air bases thousands of kilometres away from the Ukrainian border.The SBU claimed the strikes damaged 41 aircraft, including Tu-95, Tu-22M3, and Tu-160 bombers, A-50 spy planes, and An-12 and Il-78 transport aircraft, causing net damage of over $7 billion.The video published by SBU shows details of the strikes across four airfields in retaliation for Russian missile attacks on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.&nbsp;

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) published a new video detailing Operation Spider Web, which struck 41 Russian aircraft across four airfields in retaliation for missile attacks on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.

<h2>‘We strike where the enemy feels safe’</h2>&nbsp;SBU chief Vasyl Maliuk said, “We strike where the enemy feels safe—and more painful surprises are coming.”&nbsp;The footage shows preparations taking place in the Russian city of Chelyabinsk, not far from a Federal Security Service (FSB) office, according to the SBU.The trucks then drove to the cities of Ivanovo, Ryazan, and in the Murmansk, Irkutsk, and Amur oblasts. At the time of the attack, the cabins opened remotely allowing the drones to strike Russian planes at the Belaya, Olenya, Dyagilevo, and Ivanovo air bases.&nbsp;The operation was also planned to strike the air base in Ukrainka in Amur Oblast, but it failed. &nbsp;The drones used in the strike were specially designed by SBU specialists, and their unique features allowed them to be remotely controlled from thousands of kilometres away, an SBU source told the Kyiv Independent.&nbsp;<h2>‘Working on new surprises, no less painful’</h2>&nbsp;SBU chief Vasyl Maliuk, who personally oversaw the operation, stressed that Ukrainian drones targeted “absolutely legitimate targets—military airfields and aircraft that attack our peaceful cities.”“The SBU is hitting and will hit (Russia) where it considers itself unreachable,” Maliuk said in a statement.“We are working on new surprises, no less painful than the Operation Spider Web.”&nbsp;The attack was lauded by even Western partners, with NATO Admiral Pierre Vandier calling it a reinvention of the “Trojan Horse” method with “technical and industrial creativity.”Satellite imagery released after the attack showed around a dozen destroyed planes. NATO estimates that between 10 and 13 Russian planes were completely destroyed, and more were damaged.&nbsp;President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed that roughly half of the 41 targeted planes have been damaged beyond repair. Russia acknowledged damage to its aircraft but claimed all of them will be “restored”.&nbsp;

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday (June 11 ) praised a federal appeals court decision that upheld his sweeping tariff measures, calling it “a great and important win for the US.” The ruling, issued on Tuesday (June 10) by the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington, allows the continuation of tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on “Liberation Day.” Trump imposed tariffs on a broad range of imports from key US&nbsp;trading partners, as well as separate tariffs targeting goods from Canada, China, and Mexico.&nbsp;'Great win' for Trump: Tariffs to stay for now after US court's nod days after stating 'president exceeded his authority'&nbsp;In a post on Truth Social, the US president said, “A Federal Appeals Court has just ruled that the United States can use TARIFFS to protect itself against other countries.

The decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit extends a similar ruling it made after another federal court struck down the tariffs on May 28, saying Trump had overstepped his authority. Noting that the challenges to Trump's tariffs raise "issues of exceptional importance,'' the appeals court said it would expedite the case and hear arguments on July 31. In declaring the tariffs, Trump had invoked emergency powers under a 1977 law. But a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of International Trade ruled he had exceeded his power.&nbsp;After imposing &nbsp;high duties on 56 nations and the European Union, the Trump administration announced a 90-day reprieve from higher tariffs for over 75 countries, stating that this is the time frame in which countries can strike a trade deal with the US. “I have authorised a 90-day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered reciprocal tariff during this period, of 10 percent, also effective immediately,” Trump had said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Mamdani then hits the nail on the head, saying that it is now about "what he'll become", but about "what he'll do" for every New Yorker.&nbsp;<h2>Will make "roti, kapda aur makaan" affordable, says Mamdani</h2>&nbsp;He lists the problems New Yorkers are facing, saying they are barely able to afford "roti, kapda aur makaan" (food, clothes and house), another famous Bollywood film.&nbsp;"I am fighting to change all this," he says, "through rent freeze, free buses, universal childcare and cheap groceries."&nbsp;<h2>Mamdani channels Rishi Kapoor from Karz</h2>&nbsp;"But I want to ask you one question? He says, before breaking into another famous Bollywood song from the movie Karz. "Hey, tumne kabhi kisi ko vote kiya?" (Have you ever voted for someone?), as a group of Indians reply, "Yes."&nbsp;Also Read:&nbsp;&nbsp;"Kabhi kisi ko rank kiya? (Ever ranked someone?), to which the people go, "What?"&nbsp;Then, Mamdani goes on to explain the rank-choice voting system used in New York, by using five tumblers of lassi (Indian milkshake made with curd), pouring the contents from one to another to explain how a candidate gains a majority. He basically tried to simplify things for the people who are not fully familiar with the process.&nbsp;He asks people to rank him, Zohran Mamdani, as their first choice on the ballot to help him win. He also lists the other three candidates they can choose, and strictly requests them not to vote for Andrew Cuomo because "his campaign is being run using funds from Trump's donors", and a win will "give them control over New York along with DC."&nbsp;He ends the video with another Hindi film song.&nbsp;According to the latest data for the Progress Survey of likely Democratic primary voters. Mamdani is only seven points behind Cuomo in the first round of New York City's ranked-choice voting system.

New York Mayor race: Zohran Mamdani, Indian filmmaker Mira Nairs son, is campaigning Bollywood style in Hindi, complete with famous songs of Shah Rukh Khan and Rishi Kapoor, and an iconic dialogue of Amitabh Bachchan.

Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, who was deported by Israel en route to war-torn Gaza, has hit back at US President Donald Trump after he mocked her over her aid mission.&nbsp;Thunberg was aboard the ‘Madleen’, which was intercepted about 100 nautical miles (185 km) off the coast of Gaza in international waters on Monday while trying to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza and was then deported from Israel after being detained.&nbsp;The journey was organised by Freedom Flotilla, a pro-Palestine coalition, to deliver aid to Gaza, which is grappling with a hunger crisis amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.&nbsp;Trump had mocked Thunberg, calling her a “strange” and “young, angry person” with “anger issues” after she accused Israeli forces of “kidnapping” her during her bid to deliver aid to Gaza.“I don’t know if it’s real anger. It’s hard to believe, actually, but I saw what happened. She’s certainly different,” Trump said.Trump also advised that Thunberg attend anger management classes, stating, “Anger management—I think she has to go to an anger management class. That’s my primary recommendation for her… Israel has enough problems without kidnapping Greta Thunberg.”&nbsp;&nbsp;

The climate activist reacted to Trump’s remarks after arriving in Paris following her deportation by Israeli forces and said, “I think the world needs many more young angry women, to be honest,” adding, “Especially with everything going on right now. That’s the thing we need the most of.”&nbsp;She described her detention as a ‘kidnapping’ and ‘an intentional violation of rights’.&nbsp;She further said that her own experience was minor compared to what Palestinians are going through in Gaza.&nbsp;

Iran's BIG warning to US: Tehran to target American bases if nuclear talks fail and conflict breaks out

Iran is gradually imposing restrictions on dog ownership in the Islamic state and discouraging public pet activity by banning the walking of animals on the streets. So far, at least 25 cities across the country have been impacted by the latest ban. Although there is no such legislation in the country to ban dog ownership, Iranian authorities are using penal provisions of the country and religious-cultural rationale to do so.&nbsp;The measure was first imposed in Tehran in 2019 and has now become a trend nationwide.&nbsp;Judicial officials in Iran have also justified the move, citing hygiene, safety, morality, and social order. The Iranian state has long shown discomfort with the idea of owning a dog as a pet, as it considers it a Western culture.&nbsp;This is in continuation of the &nbsp;post-1979 Islamic regime’s efforts to suppress behaviours seen as un-Islamic or foreign in origin, as reported by the news agency AFP.&nbsp;How Iran is imposing the ban&nbsp;In past weeks, judicial officials in cities across Iran have imposed fresh restrictions against dog walking.The cities where the ban was imposed are: Ilam, Kermanshah, Hamadan, Kerman, Boroujerd, Robat Karim, Lavasanat, Golestan, Kashmar, and Khalkhal, among others.&nbsp;Public prosecutor Mohammad Mousavian announced in the Iranian city of Isfahan that the act of walking a dog is considered a violation of “public rights” and that it jeopardises the “health, comfort, and peace of citizens.”&nbsp;The prosecutor said that all forms of dog walking — whether in public areas, parks, or inside private vehicles — are now banned.&nbsp;“Any form of dog walking in the city — whether in parks, public spaces, or vehicles — is prohibited and will be dealt with seriously,” he said.&nbsp;Not only this, authorities have also said that “offenders will face consequences if they are seen walking dogs in parks, public spaces, or carrying them on their vehicles.”&nbsp;

Public prosecutor Mohammad Mousavian announced in the Iranian city of Isfahan that the act of walking a dog is considered a violation of “public rights” and that it jeopardises the “health, comfort, and peace of citizens.” The prosecutor said that all forms of dog walking — whether in public areas, parks, or inside private vehicles — are now banned. “Any form of dog walking in the city — whether in parks, public spaces, or vehicles — is prohibited and will be dealt with seriously,” he said. Not only this, authorities have also said that “offenders will face consequences if they are seen walking dogs in parks, public spaces, or carrying them on their vehicles.”

Iran is gradually imposing restrictions on dog ownership in the Islamic state and discouraging public pet activity by banning the walking of animals on the streets. So far, at least 25 cities across the country have been impacted by the latest ban.&nbsp;

Muslims make up the fastest-growing faith group in the world, followed by the religiously unaffiliated, according to a new Pew Research Center study measuring the evolution of the global religious population. Their number has grown by 347 million over the last 10 years.&nbsp;"Muslims are having children at a greater number than Muslims are dying," said Conrad Hackett, a senior demographer at Pew Research Center.&nbsp;"Very little of the change in Muslim population size is a result of people becoming Muslim as adults or leaving Islam as adults," he further added.&nbsp;The study, released on June 9, measured the evolution of the global religious population between 2010 and 2020. This year’s edition is the second report of religious groups, which was started in 2010.&nbsp;Regions with high population growth, like the Middle East-North Africa region represent 94.2% of the population, and sub-Saharan Africa, represent 33%.&nbsp;The Asia Pacific region is home to the largest Muslim population which increased by 16.2% between 2010 and 2020.&nbsp;Where does Christianity stand&nbsp;According to the report, Christians declined percentage-wise and grew by 122 million members in that decade. However, Christianity continues to remain the world's largest religion, with 2.3 billion believers — nearly 29% of the world's population.&nbsp;The 1.8 per cent of decline in Christianity was largely observed in Europe, North America, the Americas, Australia and New Zealand.&nbsp;Hindu population&nbsp;While Hinduism is the fourth largest group with 14.9% of the global population.&nbsp;The majority of Hindus live in India (95%).

India's External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has slammed Pakistan once again and reminded the international community that terrorist Osama Bin Laden was given a safe haven in a Pakistani military town. &nbsp;Speaking to European news website Euractiv, EAM Jaishankar said, "Let me remind you of something - there was a man named Osama bin Laden. Why did he, of all people, feel safe living for years in a Pakistani military town, right next to their equivalent of West Point?... I want the world to understand - this isn't merely an India-Pakistan issue. It's about terrorism. And that very same terrorism will eventually come back to haunt you." &nbsp;The EAM also slammed the international media for their coverage during Operation Sindoor. He also urged the West to see India's action against Pakistan not as a border conflict but an issue of terrorism. &nbsp;He also reminded that many countries in the West had supported Pakistan when it invaded India after independence. &nbsp;"Every country, naturally, considers its own experience, history and interests. India has the longest-standing grievance - our borders were violated just months after independence when Pakistan sent in invaders to Kashmir. And the countries that were most supportive of that? Western countries," he said. &nbsp;'If those same countries, who were evasive or reticent then, now say 'let's have a great conversation about international principles', I think I'm justified in asking them to reflect on their own past." Regarding the Russia-Ukraine war, the EAM reiterated that issues can't be resolved through war. &nbsp;"We don't believe that differences can be resolved through war - we don't believe a solution will come from the battlefield. It's not for us to prescribe what that solution should be. My point is, we're not being prescriptive or judgemental - but we are also not uninvolved," he said.&nbsp;

While there is emerging concern and speculation over the repeated delays in the launch of four astronauts to the International Space Station, a top NASA official has said that there are launch opportunities all the way till June 30th.&nbsp;&nbsp;Originally scheduled for launch on May 29th, the American Axiom-4 mission has been pushed repeatedly - June 8th, June 10th, June 12th, and now stands indefinitely postponed. A mix of technical reasons related to the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft, Falcon 9 rocket, and weather have led to such events. "In terms of launch opportunities, we have opportunities all the way to June 30th," said Dana Weigel, Manager, International Space Station Programme, NASA.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">🇮🇳Shubhanshu Shukla/Axiom-4 spaceflight delay: Axiom-4 mission can be launched any day till 30th June... After that, we have opportunities from 2nd week of July. Plenty of launch opportunities, says Dana Weigel, Manager, Int&#39;l Space Station Program, NASA <a href="https://t.co/kFJRbn1eDB">pic.twitter.com/kFJRbn1eDB</a>&mdash; Sidharth.M.P (@sdhrthmp) <a href="https://twitter.com/sdhrthmp/status/1932687522607608098?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 11, 2025</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Typically, every rocket launch mission has a launch window/launch opportunity- an ideal period of a few days or weeks within which the launch can take place. On each of these specific days within the launch window, there are a few minutes when the rocket can blastoff to space.&nbsp;&nbsp;All of these launch times are precisely planned down to the second, based on various technical parameters. Which is why many rocket launch missions happen at odd hours, and no two missions(even of the same type) follow the same launch time or schedule.&nbsp;&nbsp;In case SpaceX and Axiom Space are unable to launch in the month of June, there are opportunities in July as well, said Weigel. "Russians have a Progress cargo vehicle undocking from the International Space Station and new one docking, so we have a brief cut out for that. And then, a brief cut out for high solar beta. And then we have launch opportunities in the second week of July/middle of July. Plenty of opportunities to fly the vehicle," she elaborated.&nbsp;&nbsp;Predominantly, only America and Russia launch crafts to the International Space Station. Therefore, the two have to plan their traffic accordingly and coordinate the arrivals and departures with regards the Space Station. This is why Dana mentioned of a break in the month of July.&nbsp;&nbsp;Further, while launching astronaut-carrying spacecrafts to the Space Station, a technical parameter called Solar Beta needs to be factored in- it determines how much during each orbit the spacecraft is exposed to sunlight or Earth's shadow. This affects the heating or cooling of the spacecraft, ability of solar panels to generate power. For example, while circling the earth, when a spacecraft is exposed to a lot of sunlight, it could suffer overheating issues.&nbsp;&nbsp;Announcing the latest postponement, SpaceX said, "Standing down from tomorrow’s Falcon 9 launch of Ax-4 to the <a href="https://x.com/Space_Station">@Space_Station</a>&nbsp;to allow additional time for SpaceX teams to repair the LOx leak identified during post static fire booster inspections. Once complete – and pending Range availability – we will share a new launch date."&nbsp;&nbsp;The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket faces a liquid oxygen leak issue. The Falcon 9 burns a mix of rocket-grade kerosene and liquid oxygen to generate thrust for liftoff, therefore a leak of liquid oxygen poses a serious threat.&nbsp;&nbsp;On Monday June 9th, SpaceX has announced that there was a problem with the Thrust Vector Control system in the 5th&nbsp;engine of the nine-engine Falcon 9 rocket. SpaceX also said that they have fixed the issue. Further, they also claimed to have fixed the oxygen leak issue, but the present scenario shows that the their claimed fix did not suffice and the leak persists. This is likely to further delay the mission.&nbsp;<h3>About Axiom-4 human spaceflight mission&nbsp;</h3>Axiom-4 will carry a crew of four astronauts to the International Space Station, where they would stay for two weeks and perform 60 experiments.&nbsp;&nbsp;The astronauts would be flying on the SpaceX Falcon9 rocket and the Crew Dragon capsule.&nbsp;Peggy Whitson, veteran NASA astronaut and director of human spaceflight at&nbsp;Axiom&nbsp;Space, will command the&nbsp;Axiom-4 mission, while ISRO (Indian Space Research Organization) astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla will serve as pilot or second-in-command. The two mission specialists are ESA (European Space Agency) project astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski of Poland and Tibor Kapu of Hungary. This mission will facilitate the return to human spaceflight for India, Poland, and Hungary, given that each nation’s first and only government-sponsored spaceflight had taken place more than 40 years ago. The Ax-4 crew members will represent their nations in Low Earth Orbit and perform scientific experiments and demonstrations that are of high national importance.&nbsp;Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla will be the first Indian to fly to the International Space Station, and the second Indian to fly to space after Wing Commander Rakesh Sharma, who flew on a Soviet Mission in 1984. The Indian Government has paid almost $64mn(Rs.550cr) for Shukla's training and spaceflight as part of Axiom-4.&nbsp;As he circles the earth, Shukla will also be performing experiments in STEM(Science, Tech, Engineering, Math), and these will be made available as recorded educational videos, as part of the Axiom-4 mission outreach activity.&nbsp;&nbsp;In a pre-launch media briefing, Indian Astronaut Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla had said that he is excited about all aspects of the Axiom-4 spaceflight.&nbsp;&nbsp;"As I stand at the threshold of a 14-day mission to the Space Station, I reflect on the path that has brought me here. From diverse systems to advanced platforms across continents and cultures, this training has been intense and deeply rewarding. Behind every minute in space likes months, years of preparation," he remarked. For the fortnight-long mission, I carry with me not just instruments and equipment, but the hopes and dreams of a billion hearts, he added.

A feud erupted between the two following Elon Musk's exit from the White House. It all began when in early June, Musk denounced Trump’s key legislative proposal, the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’, calling it excessive and damaging, a 'disgusting abomination' that will explode federal budget deficits.&nbsp;The major reason for the fallout between Musk and Trump was the tax spending bill, which Trump calls “big and beautiful”, while Musk says it is “big and ugly.” The bill includes tax cuts, Medicaid reductions, and increased border spending and Musk claims that it would raise the national debt significantly. Musk took aim at the bill as “massive, outrageous, pork-filled…a disgusting abomination” that would “massively increase” the budget deficit. “Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.”&nbsp;Earlier, when asked if the Donald Trump administration would cancel the government contracts held by Elon Musk amid the feud, the US president said, "We'll take a look at everything. He's got a lot of money. He gets a lot of subsidy, so we'll take a look at that only if it's fair for him and for the country. I would certainly think about it yeah but it has to be fair."&nbsp;Elon Musk wrote on X saying “fair enough” to his comments. US President Donald Trump was also asked what is he going to do with Tesla. The US president said, “I haven’t thought about it. I mean, I hope he does well with Tesla.”

The US administration is increasingly becoming non-committal towards the two-state solution to end the Israel-Palestinian conflict. In the latest, Mike Huckabee, the US envoy to Israel, has said he did not think that a Palestinian state remains a US foreign policy goal.

Huckabee, a staunch Israel supporter, is echoing Trump's pro-Israel policies.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Trump administration's vague stance on Palestinian statehood</h2>&nbsp;Huckabee's comments came as Israel and Hamas continue their war in the Palestinian enclave of Gaza.
