Asia warming nearly twice as fast as the global average, wreaking a heavy toll on the region’s economies: WMO
Monday, 23 June 2025 Asia is warming at twice the global average, impacting economies and ecosystems, according to the WMO. The year 2024 saw a significant temperature rise, triggering extreme weather events across India, including deadly landslides and lightning strikes. Glaciers in the Himalayas are shrinking, threatening water supplies for a quarter of the world's population.
Saudi Arabia has intensified shelling on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, with artillery barrages destroying homes and civilian structures in Sa’ada province. Local sources report heavy damage in Razih and Ghamr districts, though casualties remain unclear. The strikes come as Houthis fight a two-front war against both Saudi Arabia and Israel, raising fears of further escalation. Backed by U.S. support, Riyadh is preparing a possible ground invasion. Yemen remains mired in the world’s worst humanitarian crisis, with the war showing no signs of ending.

Undersea cables in the Red Sea have been cut, disrupting internet traffic across Asia and the Middle East, with speculation swirling over whether Yemen’s Houthis or accidental ship anchors are responsible. Microsoft confirmed increased latency for some Azure users but said global traffic rerouting limited the wider impact. While Houthis, who have attacked over 100 ships since late 2023, deny targeting cables, experts warn intentional strikes could escalate the Israel-Hamas conflict into a broader international crisis. Investigations remain ongoing.

Microsoft confirmed severe latency issues for Azure cloud users, with connectivity across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East disrupted. While the cause of the cable damage remains unclear, speculation mounts over Houthi involvement amid their vow to enforce a blockade. The latest crisis underscores the Red Sea’s emergence as a central front in the broader Middle East conflict.

China marked the 80th anniversary of Japan’s surrender in WWII with a massive Victory Day military parade in Beijing, where President Xi Jinping declared China “unstoppable” flanked by Russia’s Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un.
But the show of force did not go unanswered. Donald Trump fired back in a fiery post, accusing Xi, Putin, and Kim of conspiring against America, while reminding the world of America’s historic role in World War II.
With nuclear missiles, hypersonic weapons, lasers, robot dogs and stealth jets on display, Beijing’s parade signaled a bold challenge to US dominance in Asia — even as Trump invoked history to warn of what’s at stake.

A magnitude 5.2 earthquake struck northern Iran near the country’s space and missile complex, raising questions about its nuclear ambitions. The quake, recorded at a shallow depth of just 3 km, has fueled speculation of possible underground tests—especially given a similar quake during the Iran–Israel war. Iran sits on the seismically active Alpine-Himalayan belt, averaging over 2,100 quakes annually, but its proximity to sensitive sites is reigniting global concerns. Officials deny any nuclear link, insisting Tehran won’t negotiate under external threats.
