Philippines: 3 casualties in blast during religious gathering in Mindanao University | Oneindia News
A devastating incident shook the Mindanao State University in Marawi City in the southern Philippines.
As reported by Al Jazeera, a massive explosion occurred at the university gymnasium during a Catholic mass service on Sunday, resulting in the loss of three lives and leaving nine others injured.
Japan is set to export six Abukuma-class destroyer escorts to the Philippines in a landmark move aimed at countering China’s growing aggression in the South China Sea. The aging destroyers, in service for over 30 years, will significantly boost the Philippines’ naval capabilities, which currently lack such firepower. Defense ministers from both nations agreed to the deal in Singapore last month. Tokyo will frame the upgrades as a joint development project to bypass Japan’s pacifist export rules. The Philippines will inspect the ships this summer. This strategic partnership comes amid intensifying maritime tensions, as both Tokyo and Manila face growing challenges from Beijing’s territorial claims. The deal marks a new chapter in Asia-Pacific military realignment and is expected to draw a sharp response from China.

Japan is on high alert as government officials warn of an imminent "Nankai Trough megaquake" that could killnearly 300,000 people. A recent seismic risk assessment puts the probability of a magnitude 8+ earthquake at 75–82% within the next 30 years. The quake would likely be followed by devastating tsunamis. The undersea Nankai Trough has a long history of producing catastrophic seismic events every 100–200 years—the last occurred in 1946. Public fears intensified after a 1999 manga by famed clairvoyant Ryo Tatsuki resurfaced, eerily predicting a massive rupture between Japan and the Philippines. The Japan Meteorological Agency has dismissed such claims as unscientific, yet growing panic has led to travel cancellations. Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba has rolled out a new national plan to bolster infrastructure and emergency response, urging citizens to brace for a worst-case scenario. The looming danger poses one of the gravest threats to Japan’s national security in decades.

Tensions escalated in the South China Sea after China warned the European Union to stop “provoking trouble” and stay out of its territorial disputes with the Philippines. The sharp rebuke followed EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas' visit to Manila, where she voiced concern over China's assertive actions. Beijing insisted the EU has no legal or diplomatic role in the matter, cautioning Manila not to rely on outside powers for resolution. The statement underscores China's hardened stance as geopolitical fault lines deepen in the contested maritime zone.
