With no sign of a truce in sight, and the Israel-Hamas conflict likely to spread to neighboring regions, how should India navigate this diplomatic challenge?

Nearly a month after Hamas militants carried out their brutal rampage, Israel's military retaliation continues with an intensifying ground offensive in Hamas-controlled Gaza.
With no sign of a ceasefire, the war is likely to spread to other regions in the Middle East.
The impact of the Israel-Hamas war will reverberate around the world, with consequences for the Middle East, Europe, China, and the United States. India too is walking a diplomatic tightrope amid the raging war.
On The India Story this week, Vikram Chandra discusses the larger implications of the war and what India stands to lose or gain in the Israel conflict.

Recent allegations of Indian involvement in the death of Khalistani terrorist, Hardeep Singh Nijjar have ignited a diplomatic standoff between India and Canada. India's unwavering commitment to combating all forms of terrorism and its anticipation of Western support have laid the groundwork for an enduring standoff. This dispute not only has the potential to further strain relations but also underscores the intricate challenges involved in tackling terrorism on a global stage. Vikram Chandra tells you more.

Even as reports suggest that about 7,000 Gazans have died in Israeli airstrikes since October 7, the Israeli Ambassador to India, asserts that their military actions specifically target Hamas and not the civilian population.&nbsp;

The Israeli Ambassador to India, Naor Gilon has expressed grave concerns over the aftermath of the October 7 terror attack, emphasising the unprecedented nature of the violence. According to him, terrorists brutally targeted and victimised over 1400 people, including children, with many individuals still unaccounted for. Only half of the victims have been located and buried, leaving a lingering trauma from the attack.
In response to these events, reports indicate that approximately 7,000 lives were lost in Israeli bombing in Gaza. The Israeli Ambassador underscores that their military actions target Hamas and not Gazans, accusing Hamas of using civilians as human shields.
Israel is prepared to undertake a ground operation in Gaza to protect its own citizens and those in the region.
Regarding the possibility of a ceasefire in Gaza, the Ambassador highlights a misunderstanding of Israel's situation globally.
Israel had hoped for improved ties with Hamas but expresses concerns about the rise of ISIS if Hamas persists.

Watch a special conversation with shooter Esha Singh, India's shining star in Hangzhou, whose stellar performance has ignited pride and joy across the nation.

Amid the various challenges facing the U.S economy, talks of a recession in the U.S have been going on for months. While inflation has been trending lower, the Federal Reserve has remained highly hawkish in its stance, making it clear that curbing inflation remains the top-most priority. There are some warning signs that the economy could still slump, and experts seem to be divided on whether a recession may have been delayed rather than avoided entirely. So, what's the actual likelihood of a recession?&nbsp;
In the event of a U.S. recession, what will be the extent of India's susceptibility, and how resilient is India in safeguarding itself from the repercussions?
Vikram Chandra discusses the global economic challenges and their impact on India with Business Analyst and Economist, Daniel Geltrude.

The India Story| Global implications of Khalistani leader Nijjar's killing

In this week's special episode of 'The India Story',&nbsp; Vikram Chandra decodes the escalating diplomatic crisis between India and Canada and considers what effect this spat will have on the rest of the world, particularly the West.

Following Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's return from the G20 summit in New Delhi, where he faced criticism for not taking action against wanted Khalistani terrorists in Canada, he made a surprising claim in parliament.
Trudeau mentioned 'credible allegations' of potential links between Indian government agents and the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, a Canadian citizen.
These allegations led to a diplomatic spat, with both countries expelling a diplomat.
India swiftly rejected Trudeau's claims as 'absurd' and 'motivated,' accusing Canada of harboring Khalistan separatists harmful to India's sovereignty.
These recent developments have strained relations between India and Canada and are forcing Western countries to tread carefully.
They must avoid alienating India, a rising power, while not abandoning Canada, a NATO member.
