Tipu’s swords to spruce up estate of Cornwallis kin
Sunday, 22 October 2023 Two swords belonging to Tipu Sultan, an Indian ruler who fought against British colonizers in the 18th century, will be auctioned off at Christie's in October. The swords, which were seized by the British in 1799, are estimated to fetch between £1.5m and £2m and between £80,000 and £120,000, respectively. The auction is expected to attract interest from Middle Eastern institutions and private collectors, as there has been little interest from Indian buyers since Vijay Mallya purchased a sword associated with Tipu Sultan in 2003.
The auction at Christie's in London features punk designer Vivienne Westwood's personal collection of clothes, accessories, and unique items spanning her career.

Reports suggest Russia plans to arm Yemen's Houthi rebels with advanced anti-ship ballistic cruise missiles, potentially shifting Middle East power dynamics. This move could threaten Western interests, especially commercial shipping in the Red Sea. The Houthis, aligned with Iran, have increased attacks on vessels recently. Russia's closer ties with Iran and anti-Western alliances drive this cooperation. U.S. officials worry about escalating conflicts, particularly between Israel and Hezbollah, potentially deepening Iran-Russia military collaboration.
