A massive explosion rocked the Singapore-flagged container ship MV Wan Hai 503 off Kerala’s coast on Monday. The underdeck blast triggered thick smoke and fire, prompting 18 of the 22 crew to abandon ship. The Indian Navy swiftly diverted INS Surat for rescue, while the Coast Guard joined evacuation efforts. The vessel, en route from Colombo to Mumbai, remains adrift and burning. The Navy is deploying a Dornier aircraft to assess the situation. The incident follows a recent cargo ship sinking nearby.

China has lashed out at U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth following his remarks at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, where he warned that China could imminently use military force against Taiwan. Beijing condemned the speech as provocative and divisive, accusing Hegseth of inciting bloc confrontation and pushing a Cold War mentality. China's foreign ministry dismissed the U.S. accusations as defamatory and asserted that only Washington deserved the label of a hegemonic power. The fiery exchange underscores growing regional tensions over Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific power balance.

India has crossed 7,000 active COVID-19 cases, with Kerala reporting the highest spike and three new deaths. The XFG variant, a sub-lineage of Omicron with strong immune evasion, has been detected across the country, raising global alarm. Originating in Canada, the variant carries four spike protein mutations. Globally, SARS-CoV-2 activity is rising, especially in South-East Asia and Eastern Mediterranean regions, with test positivity rates matching last year’s peak.
