Commander Sugunakar Pakala crossed equator twice on Navy's sole sail ship in 25-year career
Friday, 27 October 2023 Commander Sugunakar Pakala, one of the eight former Indian naval officers facing a death sentence in Qatar, has had an impressive career and achieved the milestone of crossing the equator twice on INS Tarangini. His family and friends in Visakhapatnam are shocked by the court's decision and are hoping for his release before his birthday. Sugunakar joined the Navy at 18 and had a successful career before retiring in 2013. He was working for Al Dahra Global Technologies when he was arrested.
Ukraine's Navy chief, Admiral Aleksey Neizhpapa, has called for Western submarines to enhance Ukraine's Black Sea capabilities. He emphasized the need for smaller submarines suited to the region, aiming to expand Ukraine's naval presence beyond coastal areas. This request comes amid ongoing Western military aid, though concerns about delivery delays persist. Ukraine has already impacted Russian naval operations, forcing fleet relocations and damaging key bases.

Hamas has accepted a U.S. proposal to negotiate the release of Israeli hostages, potentially ending the nine-month Gaza conflict. This decision comes 16 days after the initial agreement phase aimed at ceasing hostilities. Hamas demands Israel commit to a permanent ceasefire but is open to a temporary one during the six-week talks. The conflict has caused over 38,000 Palestinian and 1,200 Israeli deaths, with 250 hostages. The proposal includes a ceasefire, aid delivery, and Israeli troop withdrawal. Qatar leads mediation, with the U.S. pushing for a deal before the November election.
