Pakistan Monsoon: 200 Dead, 560+ Injured As Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Sindh Crumble Under Rains

Pakistan is reeling from an unforgiving monsoon season that has claimed over 200 lives and left more than 560 injured, including 182 children. Punjab has borne the brunt with 123 deaths, followed by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with 40, Sindh with 21, and others scattered across Balochistan, Islamabad, and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The deaths resulted from collapsing homes, flash floods, lightning, landslides, and electrocution. Rawalpindi was engulfed in chaos as flash floods submerged entire neighborhoods. Faisalabad also suffered heavy damage with 11 deaths in just 2 days. Infrastructure has crumbled — roads washed away in Chakwal, power supplies snapped, and communication lines destroyed. The UN warns of possible glacier lake outburst floods in the north. As the crisis unfolds, it’s a grim reminder of Pakistan’s growing climate vulnerability, just as in 2022 when floods killed over 1,700 and caused $40 billion in damage. #PakistanFloods #MonsoonDisaster #PunjabFloods #KhyberPakhtunkhwa #SindhRains #FlashFloods #ClimateCrisis #PakistanMonsoon #BalochistanFloods #IslamabadRains #POKRains #NDMA #FloodEmergency #RawalpindiFlood #FaisalabadTragedy #PakistanUnderWater #RainDisaster #UNWarning #GlacierFloods #WeatherAlert

What Is Chronic Venous Insufficiency? Trump Diagnosed With Medical Issue After Leg Swelling Images

U.S. President Donald Trump, 79, has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI)—a vein disorder causing blood to pool in the legs—after observers noted swelling during a FIFA event. The White House confirmed the condition is “benign and common,” especially among older adults. Tests ruled out more dangerous issues like deep vein thrombosis (DVT), heart failure, or kidney problems. CVI affects roughly 5% of adults and becomes more prevalent with age, weight gain, or prolonged standing. Trump’s condition appears to be in an early stage, with no signs of ulcers or severe skin changes. Bruises on his hands were also explained as side effects of aspirin use and vigorous handshaking. He reportedly feels “no discomfort” and remains active. Experts stress that while CVI is chronic, it can be managed with compression therapy, lifestyle changes, and minor interventions. #DonaldTrump #TrumpHealth #TrumpCVI #LegSwelling #VenousInsufficiency #VeinDisorder #HealthUpdate #TrumpNews #TrumpMedicalReport #Trump2025 #ChronicVenousInsufficiency #VeinDisease #CVIexplained #TrumpDiagnosis #WhiteHouseUpdate #TrumpLegIssue #HealthConcernsTrump #TrumpAspirin #TrumpFIFA #AgingAndCVI ~HT.410~GR.125~

‘Obama Should Be Prosecuted…’ Trump’s EXPLOSIVE Claim On DNI Gabbard’s Findings On 2016 Elections [Video]

‘Obama Should Be Prosecuted…’ Trump’s EXPLOSIVE Claim On DNI Gabbard’s Findings On 2016 Elections

President Donald Trump has publicly backed Tulsi Gabbard after she declassified explosive findings that claim top Obama-era officials conspired to delegitimize Trump’s 2016 election victory. Gabbard, now serving as Director of National Intelligence, revealed “overwhelming evidence” that senior figures—including Obama, Brennan, and Clapper—used false intelligence to initiate the Trump–Russia collusion narrative. She labeled the alleged actions as a "treasonous conspiracy" designed to subvert the will of American voters. Trump praised Fox News and Gabbard on Truth Social, calling the report a bombshell. Gabbard is submitting all materials to the DOJ for criminal investigation. The report also casts doubt on the Steele Dossier and claims internal memos disproved cyber tampering allegations before they were altered to implicate Russia. The revelations could reignite political tensions ahead of the 2024 elections as Republicans push for legal action. #DonaldTrump #TulsiGabbard #Obama #RussiaHoax #ElectionFraud #2016Election #SteeleDossier #MuellerReport #FoxNews #BarackObama #FBI #CIA #DOJ #TruthSocial #BreakingNews #USPolitics #ElectionInterference #DeepState #Treason #TulsiLeaks

Ukraine Admits DEFEAT? Zelenskyy ‘BEGS’ For New Peace Talks As Russia OBLITERATES Ukrainian Cities [Video]

Ukraine Admits DEFEAT? Zelenskyy ‘BEGS’ For New Peace Talks As Russia OBLITERATES Ukrainian Cities

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged Russia to resume stalled peace talks, proposing a new round of negotiations next week. This plea follows a devastating Russian drone and missile strike on Odesa that killed at least one and injured six others. Zelenskyy confirmed that National Security and Defence Council head Rustem Umerov extended the offer, while reiterating his own readiness for a face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin. Meanwhile, tensions escalate as U.S. President Donald Trump issued a 50-day ceasefire ultimatum to Moscow, threatening harsh sanctions and vowing to boost arms support for Ukraine. Russia has not formally responded to the proposed talks, while Kremlin and military officials dismissed Western pressure as "blackmail." Despite diplomatic overtures, exchanges of fire continued on both sides, raising fears of further escalation in Europe’s deadliest conflict since WWII. #Ukraine #Russia #Zelenskyy #Putin #UkraineRussiaWar #PeaceTalks #OdesaAttack #Trump #Ceasefire #DroneAttack #BlackSeaStrike #NATO #Diplomacy #UkraineInvasion #WWIII #Sanctions #Moscow #Gaza #USPolitics #ConflictResolution Also Read Russian President Vladimir Putin Calls PM Modi To Condemn Pahalgam Terror Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russian-president-vladimir-putin-calls-pm-modi-to-condemn-pahalgam-terror-attack-4143787.html?ref=DMDesc Zelensky Awaits U.S. Response After Putin Rejects Unconditional Ceasefire Proposal :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/zelensky-awaits-u-s-response-after-putin-rejects-unconditional-ceasefire-proposal-4116597.html?ref=DMDesc Preparations Underway For Vladimir Putin’s India Visit: Russian FM Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/preparations-underway-for-vladimir-putin-s-india-visit-russian-fm-lavrov-4106621.html?ref=DMDesc
