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".

Heavy snowfall and landslides have disrupted traffic across Jammu and Kashmir, leading to the closure of the Srinagar-Jammu and Srinagar-Ladakh highways. Several districts, including Rajouri, Doda, and Anantnag, are covered in thick snow. Authorities have issued an avalanche alert in Himachal’s Lahaul-Spiti region. While daily life is affected, farmers have welcomed the fresh snowfall. Weather conditions are expected to improve by the afternoon.
