🇯🇵 Japan says it won’t deploy minesweepers to the Strait of Hormuz during the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict, citing limits under its pacifist constitution.
Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said Japan could only help clear sea mines after the war ends, when the mines would be considered abandoned.
Japan is heavily dependent on Middle East oil and has announced it will release 80 million barrels from strategic reserves to stabilize supply.
Takaichi is also set to meet Donald Trump on March 19 to discuss efforts to calm tensions in the Middle East.
The mines are reportedly near the critical shipping route of the Strait of Hormuz, through which a large share of the world’s oil passes.

BREAKING: 🇳🇵 Rapper-turned-politician Balendra Shah wins Nepal landslide
Balendra Shah, former rapper and Kathmandu mayor, secured a near two-thirds majority in Nepal’s parliament, with 182 of 275 seats for his Rastriya Swatantra Party.
The Nepali Congress won 38 seats, while veteran leader Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli’s party took just 25. Shah defeated Oli in his own constituency, marking a generational shift in Nepalese politics.
Shah’s victory follows last year’s youth-led protests against corruption and stagnation, reflecting the rising influence of younger voters in a country where over 40% of the population is under 35.

UPDATE: 🇦🇺✈ Australia joins Middle East conflict
Australia will deploy an E-7A Wedgetail reconnaissance aircraft and air-to-air missiles to the Gulf in support of UAE self-defence, amid the US-Israel-Iran war.
PM Anthony Albanese and FM Penny Wong stress this is “defensive” action, but legal experts say Australia is now legally a party to the conflict.
Wedgetail crews are considered combatants under international law and may be targeted by Iranian forces. The move aligns with Article 51 of the UN Charter on collective self-defence.

🚨 UPDATE 🇹🇭 Thailand’s Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has claimed victory in the country’s general election after preliminary results showed his conservative Bhumjaithai Party leading by a wide margin.
With about 90% of votes counted, Bhumjaithai is projected to win 194 seats in the 500-seat parliament. The reformist People’s Party is expected to come second with 116 seats, while Pheu Thai may secure 86 seats.
Although no party appears to have won an outright majority, Anutin is now likely to remain prime minister by forming a coalition government.
The election result surprised many analysts, as opinion polls had predicted a stronger showing from the reformist opposition.
📊 A separate referendum held alongside the election indicates around 65% support for reforming Thailand’s 2017 military-era constitution.

🇮🇷🇪🇺 Europe backed a war it wasn't consulted on. Now it's paying for it.
Britain opened its bases. Germany cheered. France deployed warships. Italy offered its airfields.
None of them were in the room when the decision was made.
Why the compliance? Europe replaced Russian gas with American LNG after Ukraine. It still depends on American weapons to deter Russia.
And an entire generation of European leaders grew up never learning to think independently.

🚨 UPDATE | Israel–Iran Conflict : Some observers say the pattern of Israeli airstrikes in Gaza and Tehran appears increasingly similar.
In both cases, analysts suggest Israel may be relying heavily on AI-assisted targeting systems to identify potential military or government-linked sites. Critics warn that such systems could risk misidentifying locations if not carefully reviewed by human operators.
For example, reports indicate that a location known as “Police Park” in Tehran was struck during Israeli attacks. Despite the name, the site is reportedly a public park rather than an active police facility. This has raised questions among commentators about how targets are selected and verified.
There is no independent confirmation yet that AI misidentification caused the strike.
🔎 The Israeli military has previously acknowledged using AI-supported tools for intelligence analysis and target identification, but states that human oversight remains part of the process.

🇨🇱 Chile’s New President Kast Praises Pinochet — What It Means
🚨 Chile’s Far-Right Shift 🚨
Chile’s newly inaugurated President Jose Antonio Kast has openly praised former dictator Augusto Pinochet, sparking debate about what it means for Chilean democracy.
Kast’s use of Pinochet-era symbols and appointment of former Pinochet associates signals continuity with the dictatorship’s cultural and economic policies.
Analysts say this reflects frustration with the status quo, not necessarily nostalgia for the past. Similar right-wing trends are seen across Latin America, with leaders like Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil and Javier Milei in Argentina.
📊 Kast won with over 58% of the vote, tapping into public desire for order and security, amid concerns over crime and immigration.
