Sri Lanka workers defy strike ban to protest IMF bailout plan; Bola Ahmed Tinubu elected as Nigeria's president; succeeds Muhammadu Buhari; Taiwan alleges 19 Chinese air force planes entered its air defence zone in 24 hours; Papua New Guinea rocked by 6.5 magnitude earthquake.
China's immediate response to Trump's renewed tariff threat signals a sharp escalation in the U.S.-China trade war. Calling it a “mistake on top of a mistake,” Beijing slammed the move and vowed firm retaliation. The China-U.S. trade war deepens as Trump sets a new tariff deadline. Beijing shows no signs of backing down.

Taiwan has begun live-fire HIMARS drills at Jiupeng base, testing U.S.-supplied systems amid rising tensions in the South China Sea. The military exercise—part of a broader training campaign through June 2025—includes high-precision ATACMS missile launches and underscores Taiwan’s defense readiness. The U.S. has accelerated weapon shipments, with Taiwan set to receive 29 HIMARS launchers and hundreds of missiles by 2027. As Chinese aggression intensifies, regional allies including the U.S. are reinforcing their presence. Taiwan’s show of strength sends a clear message: it’s prepared and watching closely.

A top Philippine general has issued a stark warning over China's aggressive actions in the South China Sea, calling Beijing's claims "illegal and coercive." Brigadier General Logico criticized China’s expanding control near Philippine waters as U.S., Philippine, and Australian forces launch massive joint military drills. With 14,000 troops and international observers involved, the Balikatan exercises underscore a growing alliance. For the first time, the U.S. deployed deadly NMESIS missile systems near Taiwan, intensifying regional tension. As military presence escalates, calls for global attention to China's maritime behavior grow louder.

China’s newest warship Qinzhou has completed a dramatic live-fire drill just days after joining the PLA Navy’s Southern Theater Command. The stealth frigate Type 054B, hull number 555, was seen in state media footage sinking a target using its main gun and close-in weapon system. This marks Beijing’s bold push to expand naval dominance in disputed waters. As tensions rise, military analysts say the ship’s firepower and far-seas capabilities fit China’s long-term strategy to control critical trade routes and deter rivals in the South China Sea.

A former U.S. Army analyst, 25-year-old Korbein Schultz, has been sentenced to 7 years in prison for leaking top-secret military information to a contact he believed was linked to the Chinese government. Schultz admitted to selling sensitive data from 2022 to 2024—including info on U.S. troop movements, missile systems, and lessons from Ukraine—for $42,000. The case raises serious national security concerns, with leaked documents also covering Taiwan and NATO strategy. Schultz even tried to recruit others. Was it greed, ideology—or something darker?

Tensions are escalating in the Asia-Pacific as China slams the U.S.-Philippines joint military drills near Taiwan. The 2025 Balikatan exercises involve over 14,000 troops and simulated island defenses — moves Beijing says threaten regional peace. Chinese officials accuse the Philippines of colluding with foreign powers and warn the drills will disrupt stability and economic growth. As Australia, Japan, and others join or observe the war games, China warns: “Those who play with fire will get burned.” The Luzon Strait — near Taiwan — is now the center of global attention.

In New Delhi, Union Minister Piyush Goyal’s remark labeling many Indian startups as mere “dukaandars” has sparked intense debate. Startup founders, tech leaders, and citizens voiced their take on whether India’s startup ecosystem should focus on consumer delivery apps or pivot to deep tech innovation. Zepto's Aadit Palicha, Ashneer Grover, and others have weighed in. While some support Goyal’s vision of India as a tech leader, others argue that consumer platforms also drive growth and jobs.

The US tariff impact is sending shockwaves across global markets, with India and other Asian giants facing new trade barriers. Robinder Nath Sachdev, a Foreign Affairs Expert, explains how Trump’s move is aimed at securing voter confidence and fulfilling his promises. While some nations may retaliate, India may have little reason to do so. Will these tariffs boost Trump’s domestic standing, or will they backfire? Oneindia’s Pankaj Mishra speaks with Sachdev to break it down.

A shocking surge in deadly violence across northeastern Nigeria has left 48 people dead in just 48 hours, sparking fears of a Boko Haram comeback. Armed raids in Adamawa and Borno claimed 22 lives, followed by a brutal roadside blast that killed 26 more. Security experts and local authorities warn that the Islamist terror group, alongside its rival ISWAP, may be regrouping after years of internal conflict. With over 40,000 killed and more than 2 million displaced over 15 years, is Nigeria on the brink of another insurgency crisis?

In a violent crackdown during International Quds Day, Nigerian security forces opened fire on pro-Palestinian protesters in Abuja, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens more. Video footage from the scene shows armed forces securing the perimeter as demonstrators flee, with some being dragged lifeless into trucks by soldiers. This violent suppression follows a pattern of force used against Quds Day demonstrators in previous years, sparking outrage and concern from human rights organizations. The Nigerian government had previously warned of potential unrest, citing concerns over the protesters' demands for justice in support of Palestine. This tragic event has left many questioning the Nigerian government's response to peaceful demonstrations and the growing tension surrounding global solidarity for Palestine.
