At least 175 people have died and over 3,000 displaced after catastrophic floods submerged Mokwa, a major market town in Nigeria's Niger State. Triggered by predawn rains, the floods affected 500 households, leaving many rooftops submerged and people waist-deep in water. President Bola Tinubu has activated emergency response operations, vowing no victim will be abandoned. As climate change worsens Nigeria’s weather extremes, devastated residents mourn their dead and lost harvests. The town, a crucial agricultural hub, is now struggling to cope with trauma, loss, and rising humanitarian needs.

BRICS Summit 2025: India takes center stage at the BRICS 2025 Summit in Rio de Janeiro as Prime Minister Narendra Modi leads a powerful charge from the Global South against Trump’s aggressive tariff policy. With 10 nations participating—including new member Indonesia—this year’s summit focuses on fair global governance, climate action, and reforming outdated world institutions like the UN, WTO, and World Bank. As the world’s fastest-growing major economy, India is pushing for a more equitable trade system and calling for collective resistance against economic coercion. Modi’s leadership is not only uniting BRICS but also redefining it—asserting India as the democratic anchor of a bloc once overshadowed by China. India’s role in the New Development Bank and its calls for tech cooperation, sustainable development, and regional peace underscore its rising influence in shaping a new world order.

Asian markets surged after the U.S. and China held "substantial" trade talks in Geneva, offering hope for a resolution to the tariff war that has shaken global markets. With earlier tariffs reaching as high as 145% on Chinese goods and 125% in retaliation, fears of a recession had loomed large. But both sides called the discussions constructive, raising expectations for a deal. The WTO praised the talks as a "significant step forward," while U.S. futures, oil, and the dollar all climbed on optimism of easing tensions.
