Abuse continued in Army after Beck's death, friend says [Video]

Abuse continued in Army after Beck's death, friend says

A friend of Jaysley Beck has said sexual abuse in the Army is still going on years after the former Royal Artillery gunner's death. The body of the 19-year-old was found in a locker room at Wiltshire's Larkhill Camp in 2021. She had been subjected to relentless harassment from her line manager, Bombardier Ryan Mason, an inquest was told. Beck had also filed a complaint against Battery Sergeant Major Michael Webber who "pinned her down" and tried to kiss her at a work social. Former soldier Tamzin Hort compared being a woman in the Army to being "a piece of meat in a tank of sharks" and that "people get sexually assaulted left, right and centre, but nothing's done about it".

Major Digvijay Singh Rawat Responds to Bimol Akoijam, Highlights Army's Role in Manipur Conflict

In response to A. Bimol Akoijam's speech in Parliament, Major Digvijay Singh Rawat raises serious concerns over the role of central security forces in Manipur. Highlighting a controversial incident, Rawat shares a video of Meitei Arambai militants traveling in a Meitei police vehicle and bypassing Army checkposts.

Rise of Hezbollah Again? Joseph Aoun Elected Lebanon’s President| What Does it Mean for Israel? [Video]

Rise of Hezbollah Again? Joseph Aoun Elected Lebanon’s President| What Does it Mean for Israel?

Lebanon’s political stalemate has ended with the election of Army Chief Joseph Aoun as president, after 13 failed attempts and over a year without a leader. Aoun’s election comes during a delicate ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel, following devastating clashes that left Lebanon reeling. Backed by international powers like the US and Saudi Arabia, Aoun’s presidency is seen as a potential turning point for the country’s fractured politics and strained international relations.Hezbollah’s role in the election has raised questions about its future influence, especially as the group has been weakened by the recent conflict with Israel. Aoun, viewed as a reformist leader, faces monumental challenges, including rebuilding Lebanon’s shattered economy, navigating the fragile peace with Israel, and maintaining national unity amid deep political divisions. #JosephAoun #LebanonPolitics #Hezbollah #IsraelConflict #MiddleEastTensions #LebanonPresident #JosephAounElected #HezbollahRise #IsraelLebanon #CeasefireTalks #MiddleEastNews #JosephAounLeadership #LebanonFuture #RegionalStability #LebanonReforms Also Read West Bengal's Anti-Rape Bill Aparajita Sent to President for Consideration :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/west-bengal-governor-refers-anti-rape-bill-to-president-011-3927913.html?ref=DMDesc Meet To Lam: From Police Chief To President Of Vietnam :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/meet-to-lam-from-police-chief-to-president-of-vietnam-3831659.html?ref=DMDesc Putin's Landslide Victory: Securing Fifth Term And Surpassing Stalin As Longest-Serving Leader :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-putin-secures-fifth-term-with-landslide-victory-in-russian-presidential-election-3777051.html?ref=DMDesc
