The Drowning Prevention Awareness campaign, launched on World Drowning Prevention Day (25 July), is a heartfelt initiative by the Hemant Bala Advaitha (HBA) Foundation. Sparked by the tragic loss of 18-year-old music prodigy Advaitha Verma—who drowned in Pawna Lake in India's Pune, in June 2024—his parents Sudesh Verma and Renu Kaul Verma turned their grief into purpose. This Drowning Prevention Awareness campaign aims to educate, inform and prevent such avoidable tragedies nationwide. Backed by the WHO and inspired by the UN resolution of 2021, the Drowning Prevention Awareness movement highlights the urgent need for safety, education and community action.
Oneindia's Pankaj Mishra brings this report.

The Thailand–Cambodia border conflict has entered its second day, forcing over 100,000 Thai civilians into shelters across Surin, Sisaket, Ubon Ratchathani, and Buriram. Reports confirm at least 14 civilian deaths in Thailand and one in Cambodia amid artillery fire and airstrikes. Cambodia accuses Thailand of using banned cluster bombs, vowing to take the matter to the UN, while Thailand blames Cambodia for targeting schools and hospitals with Russian-made BM-21 rockets. The U.S. and China have offered mediation, but Thailand’s PM rejects outside intervention for now.

French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will officially recognize the State of Palestine in September, sparking fierce backlash from both Israel and the United States. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the move as “reckless,” while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called it “shameful” and accused France of rewarding terrorism.
As Macron defends the decision as a step toward peace and an end to the Gaza war, critics argue it signals growing Western support for Palestine and Hamas. Is France challenging U.S.-Israeli dominance in Middle East policy? And will this shift trigger more European nations to follow?
The announcement comes amid international outrage over Israel's military campaign in Gaza and a growing death toll. With nearly three-quarters of UN members now backing Palestinian statehood, global pressure on Israel continues to mount.

The Thailand-Cambodia conflict has entered its second day with accusations of banned cluster bomb use and heavy civilian casualties. Cambodia vows to drag Thailand to the UN and ASEAN over alleged war crimes, while Thailand denies wrongdoing and blames Cambodian attacks for sparking the war. Over 130,000 people have been displaced as artillery fire devastates border regions. Both nations exchange claims of targeting schools and hospitals, raising fears of a prolonged war. Global powers, including the U.S. and China, call for restraint, but Bangkok rejects outside mediation.

Thailand has declared a state of emergency in eight eastern border districts and imposed martial law as its deadly conflict with Cambodia intensifies. With 14 dead—including 13 civilians—and over 120,000 displaced, tensions are spiraling. Cambodia has downgraded diplomatic ties, accusing Thailand of aggression and violating a Malaysian-brokered truce. As Thailand shuts land borders and rejects international mediation, fears of an all-out war grow. Both sides trade blame while global calls for de-escalation and ceasefire negotiations continue to mount.

Thailand has fiercely rejected Cambodia’s accusation that its military bombed the Preah Vihear Temple—a UNESCO World Heritage site—amid intensifying border clashes. Bangkok calls Phnom Penh’s claims a “distortion of facts” and “politically motivated,” denying any damage to cultural or civilian zones. Cambodia alleges air and artillery strikes caused major destruction, violating international law. The 11th-century temple, long contested, is now a flashpoint fueling nationalist tensions as both sides trade blame and the risk of escalation continues to mount.

The Thailand-Cambodia border conflict has intensified dramatically on Day 2, with Thai kamikaze drones striking deep into Cambodian territory. Viral footage shows a massive fireball as drones obliterate a Cambodian military outpost near Phu Ma Kuea hill—allegedly housing weapons caches. Thailand accuses Cambodia of shelling civilian areas in Surin Province, as deadly artillery exchanges continue. With drone warfare and cross-border strikes escalating rapidly, fears of a full-scale war are mounting, and calls for international intervention are growing louder.

Thailand’s Acting Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai has warned that violent border clashes with Cambodia could escalate into full-scale war. With over 16 dead, and more than 100,000 civilians displaced, the disputed border has become a dangerous flashpoint. Both nations accuse each other of violating peace deals, as Cambodia alleges Thailand used banned cluster munitions—claims Bangkok denies. As heavy weapons pound residential areas and tensions spiral, the international community faces growing calls to intervene and prevent a broader Southeast Asian war.
