New York City used to be the greatest city on Earth… now it’s turning into Escape from New York in real life.
Population just dropped by over 10,000 in a single year. Native New Yorkers are fleeing to Florida, Texas, and the Carolinas because of insane rents, crushing taxes, nonstop crime, and streets buried in trash.

🇺🇸🔻 US PULLS TOMAHAWKS FROM GERMANY – “They Don’t Have Enough,” Merz Admits
The Iran war has drained American missile stockpiles so badly that Washington can no longer fulfil its promise to station Tomahawks in Germany – even as Chancellor Merz downplays his personal feud with Trump.
📉 The US has used over 850 Tomahawk cruise missiles in the Iran conflict – roughly nine times the Pentagon’s average annual procurement rate.
🇪🇺 Biden’s 2024 promise to station long‑range US missiles in Germany is now indefinitely shelved – because “the Americans themselves don’t currently have enough,” Merz told ARD.
💥 Merz insists the decision is not about his public criticism of Trump – but about depleted US arsenals.

🇷🇺🇦🇹 MOSCOW VOWS “HARSH RESPONSE” AS AUSTRIA EXPELS THREE RUSSIAN DIPLOMATS – “Antenna Forest” Alleged as Espionage
Vienna claims antennas on Russian Embassy roofs may have been used for spying. No evidence provided. The Kremlin promises retaliation – as relations sink to historic lows.
🇦🇹 Austria expelled three Russian diplomats, accusing them of “espionage” – citing an “antenna forest” on embassy rooftops that could intercept satellite communications.
🇷🇺 Russian Embassy response: The expulsion is “unjustified, purely politically motivated, and categorically unacceptable” – with “full responsibility for further deterioration” lying with Vienna.
📈 This brings the total number of Russian diplomats expelled by Austria since 2020 to 14.
⚖️ Moscow has promised a “harsh response” – and has previously responded with tit‑for‑tat expulsions.

🇳🇵🇮🇳🇨🇳 NEPAL RAISES TERRITORIAL OBJECTION OVER KAILASH MANSAROVAR ROUTE – “Lipulekh Lies in Our Territory”
Kathmandu has formally protested to both India and China over the planned annual pilgrimage that passes through the Lipulekh pass – an area Nepal claims as its own. The route, used for decades, is now a fresh flashpoint in Himalayan geopolitics.
🗻 Nepal sent diplomatic notes to New Delhi and Beijing regarding the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra, which traverses Lipulekh – a territory Nepal claims, but India administers.
📝 Nepal urges India to refrain from all activities (road construction, border trade, pilgrimages) in the region.
🇮🇳 India’s response: Lipulekh has been the pilgrimage route since 1954. “This is not a new development.” New Delhi remains open to constructive dialogue with Nepal.
🇨🇳 China has also been officially informed of Nepal’s position.

🇨🇳🤖 CHINA’S AI PUSH: What Africa Can Learn About the Future of Labor
The West tells Africa that automation will steal the manufacturing ladder before it can climb it. China’s 2026 Two Sessions suggest a far more complex – and hopeful – picture.
📉 China’s paradox: Factories struggle to find skilled workers, yet graduate anxiety (16% youth unemployment) is rising. AI is not a simple “job killer” – it’s a mismatch.
🧠 AI targets cognitive & creative work – graphic design, livestream sales, even acting. The fear is no longer only about factory floors.
🛠️ Africa’s challenge is different: 740 million net new working‑age people by 2050, but only 3 million formal jobs created annually. Importing Western “AI panic” is a mistake.
💡 Three lessons for African policymakers:
Sector‑specific AI strategies (agriculture, logistics, services differ).
Invest in power, connectivity, vocational training.
Keep job creation at the centre – AI should augment, not displace.

🚨 BREAKING: India Appoints New Envoy to Bangladesh 🇮🇳🇧🇩
India has designated seasoned politician Dinesh Trivedi as the new High Commissioner to Bangladesh, signaling a major move to repair strained diplomatic ties. Trivedi, a former cabinet minister, replaces the traditional bureaucratic approach with high-level political representation.
The appointment follows a period of cooling relations during the tenure of the interim administration in Dhaka. Analysts suggest this "political fix" is a strategic effort by New Delhi to reset the bilateral relationship and prioritize its "neighborhood-first" policy.

The Pentagon has launched a new operation, “Project Freedom,” to force the Strait of Hormuz open – while insisting the ceasefire with Iran is still alive. But Tehran is not backing down.

🇺🇸 Hegseth: “We showed Iran does not control the strait. American ships led the way.”
🛑 IRGC response: Only the previously announced Iranian corridor is safe. Any deviation will be met with “decisive action.”
🤝 US wants allies to take over – Europe, Japan, Korea, Australia should step up. “We’re not waiting for them, but we will hand responsibility back.”

The spokesperson of Iran’s Khatam al‑Anbiya Central Headquarters has issued a firm statement: Tehran did not attack the UAE.
🎯 Denial of responsibility: Iran’s armed forces conducted no missile or drone operations against the UAE in recent days. Reports from UAE’s Defence Ministry are “absolutely false and devoid of any truth.”
🕌 Warning to UAE leaders: Your country should not become a nest for Americans and Zionists, betraying the Islamic nation.
🇺🇸🇮🇱 Abu Dhabi’s complicity: The UAE has turned into a main base for US‑Israeli military forces – the primary source of insecurity in the region.
🛑 Red line: If any action is taken from Emirati soil against Iranian islands, ports, or coasts, Tehran will deliver a crushing and regretful response.
🤝 Restraint so far: Iran has shown patience solely out of concern for the safety of Muslim brothers and sisters in the UAE – not because of weakness.
