India LASHES OUT As EU Targets Gujarat Refinery Over Russian Oil Ties, Sanctions Spark Firestorm

India has slammed the European Union's latest round of sanctions that target Nayara Energy’s Gujarat-based Vadinar refinery for its links to Russian oil giant Rosneft. As part of its 14th package of sanctions, the EU blacklisted 105 additional vessels and took aim at Nayara — the first Indian entity to face such direct action. Brussels aims to throttle Moscow’s wartime funding, but New Delhi has accused the EU of "double standards" and reiterated its stance against unilateral sanctions. Nayara, heavily reliant on export markets in Europe and Africa, now faces disruptions, job threats, and uncertainty over Rosneft’s $20B stalled exit plan involving Reliance. India says it remains committed to its legal obligations but won’t compromise on energy security. #IndiaVsEU #RussianOil #NayaraEnergy #VadinarRefinery #GujaratNews #EUSanctions #EnergySecurity #Rosneft #Reliance #OilTrade #Putin #KajaKallas #WesternSanctions #PriceCap #CrudeOilBan #RosneftExit #IndiaResponds #DoubleStandards #G7Sanctions #FuelCrisis ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.103~

India BLASTS 'Twisted' U.S Report On Air India Crash, Denies Pilot Fuel Cut Claim As ‘Baseless….’

Fresh controversy has erupted over the fatal Air India crash in Gujarat’s Ahmedabad last month. A Wall Street Journal report claims a cockpit recording reveals the captain cut off the aircraft’s fuel midair, moments after takeoff. The first officer, reportedly panicked, questioned the captain’s move, as per the leaked cockpit transcript. Both pilots, Captain Sumeet Sabharwal and First Officer Clive Kunder, were killed along with 240 others onboard and 19 on the ground—only one person survived. While the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau's (AIIB) preliminary report confirms both fuel switches were turned off within a second, it doesn’t state whether the action was accidental or deliberate. India’s Civil Aviation Minister urged restraint, saying no conclusions should be drawn yet. The Federation of Indian Pilots (FIP) has strongly condemned the US media report, calling it speculative and harmful. Meanwhile, Air India completed checks on the Fuel Control Switches in all Boeing 787s with no issues found. #AirIndiaCrash #PilotControversy #FuelCutAllegation #787Dreamliner #AviationProbe #FlightBlackBox #AirIndiaNews #WallStreetJournal #Boeing787 #IndianAviation #AhmedabadCrash #PilotLastWords #CivilAviationIndia #CrashInvestigation #PlaneCrashUpdate #CockpitRecording #FlightDisaster #AviationSafety #DGCAIndia #PilotBodyCondemnsReport ~ED.102~GR.124~HT.96~

Indonesia Earthquake: MASSIVE 6.7 Tremor Strikes Tanimbar Islands | No Tsunami Alert Issued

A powerful magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck near Indonesia’s Pulau Pulau Tanimbar region at a depth of 49.6 miles, causing strong tremors but fortunately no tsunami threat. The earthquake was recorded late at night, sending residents scrambling from their homes. Despite the strong seismic shock, early assessments indicate minimal structural damage and no immediate reports of casualties. Indonesian authorities, along with global seismic monitors, continue to evaluate the aftershock potential and regional impact. Indonesia lies along the volatile “Ring of Fire” and frequently experiences seismic events of varying magnitudes. Emergency response teams remain on alert as aftershocks are possible. The US Geological Survey has classified the quake as moderate but deep, which likely reduced surface-level devastation. While the region breathes a sigh of relief over the lack of a tsunami, experts warn of potential tremors in the coming hours. Local officials urge residents to remain cautious but calm. #IndonesiaEarthquake #TanimbarIslands #SeismicActivity #NoTsunami #EarthquakeUpdate #NaturalDisaster #RingOfFire #BreakingNews #IndonesiaNews #PulauPulauTanimbar #USGS #GeologicalAlert #EarthquakeToday #AftershocksPossible #TremorAlert #SeismicZone #EmergencyResponse #StaySafeIndonesia #GeologicalNews #DisasterPreparedness Also Read Earthquake in Delhi-NCR: 3.7 Magnitude Quake Jolts Jhajjar, Tremors Felt Across Haryana :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/4-1-magnitude-earthquake-in-delhi-ncr-quake-jolts-jhajjar-tremors-felt-across-haryana-7798445.html?ref=DMDesc Delhi Earthquake: Netizens Flood Social Media With Memes :: https://www.oneindia.com/new-delhi/delhi-earthquake-netizens-flood-social-media-with-funny-memes-7796679.html?ref=DMDesc Earthquake Tremors Felt In Delhi And NCR; Eyewitnesses Share Their 'Scary' Experience :: https://www.oneindia.com/new-delhi/earthquake-tremors-felt-in-delhi-ncr-7796657.html?ref=DMDesc
