Operation Sindoor: World Backs Indian Strikes On Pak Terror Launchpads | UN And China Warn Of War

India has launched precision missile strikes on nine terror camps across Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in retaliation for the deadly Pahalgam attack. Officials claim the targets were strictly non-military, aiming at Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba bases. The United States, United Nations, and China have all responded, urging restraint. While Israel backed India's right to self-defence, Pakistan has retaliated with deadly artillery fire. As tensions rise, global powers call for calm amid fears of full-scale conflict between two nuclear-armed nations. #IndiaStrikesBack #PahalgamAttack #Pakistan #IndiaPakistan #TerrorCamps #Jaish #LeT #MissileStrike #Trump #UN #Israel #China #Modi #SelfDefence #MilitaryStrike #Kashmir #BreakingNews #GlobalCrisis #SouthAsiaTensions #IndiaArmy #PakistanArmy #CrossBorderAttack #LOC #Airstrike #Retaliation #WorldReacts #DeEscalation #IndiaNews #PakistanNews #UAE #StephaneDujarric Also Read Meet Vyomika Singh, Wing Commander Who Addressed Media Briefing On Operation Sindoor :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/meet-vyomika-singh-wing-commander-who-addressed-media-briefing-on-operation-sindoor-4145899.html?ref=DMDesc Video Shows Multiple Direct Hits on Terror Camps in Pakistan and PoK by India’s Airstrike :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/video-shows-multiple-direct-hits-on-terror-camps-in-pakistan-and-pok-by-india-s-airstrike-4145879.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Shelling Killed 8 People in Poonch After India Hits Terror Camps in PoK :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-shelling-killed-8-people-in-poonch-after-india-hits-terror-camps-in-pok-4145787.html?ref=DMDesc

Russia BLASTS West for Refugee Crisis: ‘Double Standards’ and Callous Neglect of Dying Innocents [Video]

Russia BLASTS West for Refugee Crisis: ‘Double Standards’ and Callous Neglect of Dying Innocents

In a powerful statement at the UN, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative, Maria Zabolotskaya, condemned Western countries for their "double standards" in addressing the global refugee crisis. Highlighting the devastating impact of the Gaza conflict, she criticized the reluctance of Western nations to provide sufficient humanitarian aid to refugees, particularly those fleeing from war-torn regions like Syria, Afghanistan, and Sudan. Zabolotskaya also pointed out the hypocrisy in Western countries voicing concern over Ukrainian refugees while ignoring the plight of those seeking asylum in Russia. She called out the EU's failure to provide adequate support to refugees, especially those crossing the Mediterranean, and the deadly consequences of this inaction. With lives at stake and no accountability, the international community must confront the moral and legal crisis unfolding before our eyes. #RefugeeCrisis #Gaza #DoubleStandards #UN #HumanitarianCrisis #RussiaUN #MariaZabolotskaya #WesternHypocrisy #Refugees #InternationalLaw #GlobalPolitics #MediterraneanCrisis #Syria #Afghanistan #UkraineRefugees #SaveTheRefugees ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.102~GR.124~
