Covid-19 death toll in India breaches the 3 Lakh mark, 3rd country after US & Brazil | Oneindia News
India recorded 4,454 COVID-19 deaths in the last 24 hours, taking the number of dead to above 3 lakh, making it only the third country after the US and Brazil to cross the grim milestone.
Around 1 lakh people have died in the last 26 days in India, the highest for any country.
As Thursday night descended upon Brazil's southern Rio Grande do Sul (RHee-oo Grahnd-ee doo Soohl) state, the toll of lives lost due to heavy rains surged to 29, while an alarming count of 60 individuals remained missing, as reported by the state's civil defence agency. This stark escalation in casualties comes in stark contrast to the agency's earlier report released at noon, which had documented 13 fatalities and 21 individuals reported missing. The rapid escalation in both casualties and missing persons highlights the severity of the situation, underlining the urgent need for coordinated rescue and relief efforts in the affected region.

Israel has issued Hamas a one-week ultimatum to accept a proposed deal brokered by the US, Egypt, and Qatar. This agreement entails the release of several hostages in exchange for a six-week cessation of hostilities. The ultimatum was reportedly communicated through Egyptian officials, suggesting Hamas has until the following week to respond. This development follows Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statement indicating Israel's intent to proceed with an operation in Rafah regardless of the deal's outcome.
