Ukrainian media outlets quoted intelligence sources as saying that explosions were reported in the Crimean city of Sevastopol on Sunday. Reports said that the blasts were heard due to a joint operation by Ukrainian forces. However, a Moscow-installed official countered the claims of these Ukrainian reports, asserting that Russia's enemies were trying to claim false victory. Sevastopol is the largest in Crimea and is currently the home to Russia's Black Sea Fleet. The Moscow-installed governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev reportedly said on Telegram that everything was calm in his city.

Russian mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin has reportedly published his first recruitment video for the Wagner Group since organising a short-lived mutiny against defence officials in Russia. Prigozhin had moved into the global spotlight in June with a dramatic, short-lived rebellion that posed the most serious threat to President Vladimir Putin of the Russian leader’s 23-year rule. In the video, which was posted Monday on Telegram messaging app channels which are believed to be affiliated with Prigozhin, a person who appears to be the 62-year-old mercenary leader says the Wagner Group is conducting recon and search activities, and “making Russia even greater on all continents, and Africa even more free”. The person who appears to be Prigozhin in the video also says Wagner is, "giving Isis, al-Qaeda and other gangsters hell" in temperatures of 50 degrees Celsius.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the public gathering at 'Karyakarta Mahakumbh' at Jamboree Maidan in Bhopal, MP. The PM started his speech by saying Bharat Mata Ki Jai. Later in his speech, the Prime Minister launched a scathing attack on the Congress government and said that Congress have outsourced everything to Urban Naxals. Congress has lost all its willpower.

The party is no longer being run by its leaders. Now it is outsourcing everything, from slogans to policies, and this contract is with some urban Naxalites.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is considering whether to scrap or delay the second phase of the HS2 high-speed railway which would link Birmingham with Manchester. Launched in 2009, HS2 was estimated to cost £37.5 billion, but that number has continued to climb, and some reports suggest the budget may now have surpassed £100 billion. The government says it is concerned at the rising costs during the UK’s current economic situation. As it stands, HS2 would run from Old Oak Common, in London's western suburbs, to Birmingham Curzon Street, when it begins operations between 2029 and 2033. Report by Jonesia.
