India Hits China Where It Hurts Most, Teams Up With China’s Top Rival As Beijing Fumes | Details [Video]

India Hits China Where It Hurts Most, Teams Up With China’s Top Rival As Beijing Fumes | Details

In a bold diplomatic and military move, India hosted Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. with full state honours—while simultaneously dispatching warships for joint patrols in the South China Sea. INS Delhi, INS Shakti and INS Kiltan sailed alongside Philippine vessels inside Manila’s exclusive economic zone, triggering a subtle yet unmistakable warning to China. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs reaffirmed support for freedom of navigation, calling the waters part of the “global commons.” The joint drill coincided with Marcos’ five-day India visit, where the two nations signed a landmark Strategic Partnership agreement to boost defence, maritime cooperation, disaster relief and cyber security. While India didn’t name China, Beijing’s rebuke of “third-party interference” left little ambiguity. The coordinated political hospitality and military manoeuvres signal India’s rising Indo-Pacific assertiveness and a strategic alignment with one of China’s fiercest regional rivals—firmly placing New Delhi in the emerging anti-China security web across the Indo-Pacific. #IndiaPhilippines #SouthChinaSea #ModiMarcos #IndiaChinaTensions #IndoPacific #MaritimeSecurity #PhilippinesNavy #IndianNavy #FreedomOfNavigation #UNCLOS1982 #StrategicPartnership #IndiaDefence #ChinaPhilippinesTension #BeijingWarning #IndoPacificSecurity #IndiaWarships #ModiForeignPolicy #MarcosInIndia #GeopoliticsAsia #IndiaChinaRivalry

Spain’s DEADLIEST Summer: 1,100 KILLED As Heatwave RIPS Through Madrid & Seville | Worst Since 2022

Spain is reeling after a deadly 16-day heatwave claimed more than 1,100 lives, with temperatures soaring above 40°C nationwide. Officials reported 1,149 excess deaths, mostly among vulnerable seniors and women. Madrid and Seville were hit hardest, with the urban heat island effect amplifying conditions. Wildfires in Catalonia destroyed farmland and worsened air quality. Experts warn climate change has made heatwaves hotter, longer, and three times deadlier. Spain, already scarred by past deadly summers, now faces a mounting public health and environmental crisis. #SpainHeatwave #ClimateCrisis #HeatwaveDeaths #GlobalWarming #ExtremeHeat #UrbanHeatIsland #Madrid #Seville #Catalonia #Wildfires #AirQuality #ClimateChange #Heatwave2025 #DeadlyHeatwave #HealthCrisis #Environment #ClimateRisk #EuropeHeatwave #HotterPlanet #HeatwaveAlert #HeatwaveImpact #GlobalHeat #DisasterNews #SpainClimate #HeatDeaths #BreakingNews #HeatwaveSpain #ClimateEmergency #RisingTemperatures #SilentKiller Also Read Flash Floods In Pakistan Lead To Over 320 Deaths, Rescue Efforts Underway :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/flash-floods-in-pakistan-lead-to-over-320-deaths-rescue-efforts-underway-011-7831519.html?ref=DMDesc Major Reports on Climate Change Impact in the US Removed from Federal Websites, Affecting Public Access :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/major-reports-climate-change-us-removed-websites-011-7788857.html?ref=DMDesc Sirsa Criticises Kejriwal for Neglecting Delhi's Mahatma Gandhi Climate Institute :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sirsa-blames-kejriwal-neglect-delhi-climate-institute-011-4118667.html?ref=DMDesc
