The eight Indian Navy veterans who were facing the death penalty in Qatar have had their sentences commuted to an unspecified number of years in prison by a higher court. The Indian government will continue to provide legal and consular assistance to the accused and may use a 2015 agreement with Qatar for the transfer of sentenced persons. The veterans were held on charges of passing sensitive information to Israel about a Qatari submarine project.

BREAKING| Qatar Withdraws as Gaza Ceasefire Mediator; Trump and U.S Pressure Lead to Dramatic Break? [Video]

BREAKING| Qatar Withdraws as Gaza Ceasefire Mediator; Trump and U.S Pressure Lead to Dramatic Break?

In a dramatic shift, Qatar has pulled out as a key mediator in the Gaza ceasefire talks, citing Hamas's refusal to negotiate in good faith. This decision comes after intense pressure from the U.S. and Trump’s administration, which had made it clear that Hamas’s continued presence in Doha was no longer acceptable. Qatar informed both Israel and Hamas that it could no longer facilitate negotiations under these conditions. The move marks a significant turning point in Middle Eastern diplomacy, as Qatar, once a key mediator, distances itself from Hamas while signaling its readiness to re-engage only if both sides show a sincere willingness to negotiate. The pressure from the U.S. on Qatar to close Hamas’s office in Doha underscores the shifting dynamics of the region's diplomatic landscape. #QatarWithdraws #GazaCeasefire #HamasDiplomacy #USPressure #TrumpPolicy #MiddleEastCrisis #QatarHamasBreak #IsraelHamasTalks #DiplomaticShift #GazaConflict #USForeignPolicy #QatarMediation #MiddleEastPeace #HamasTalks #CeasefireFailure ~PR.152~HT.95~ED.103~

In a devastating pre-dawn strike, Israel targeted a multi-story residential building in central Beirut, Lebanon, resulting in at least 11 deaths and dozens of injuries. The Israeli attack, which used powerful "bunker-busting" bombs, flattened the building, leaving a deep crater and igniting widespread fires in the area. Rescue workers raced to search for survivors beneath the rubble, with 63 others confirmed injured. The attack, part of Israel's ongoing escalation against Hezbollah, has left the city reeling. Watch the chilling aftermath as firefighters battle blazes, and residents survey the extensive damage in Beirut's Basta and Choueifat neighbourhoods. #IsraelAttack #LebanonCrisis #BeirutExplosion #BeirutBuildingAttack #PredawnStrike #HezbollahConflict #MiddleEastTensions #BunkerBustingBombs #LebanonWar #IsraelVsLebanon #WarInLebanon #CiviliansUnderFire #IsraeliBombing #LebanonCrisis #FirefightersInAction #MiddleEastConflict ~HT.97~PR.152~ED.155~GR.124~
