Rescuers raced Saturday to search for survivors and help hundreds of people left homeless after a powerful tornado cut a devastating path through Mississippi, killing at least 25 people, injuring dozens, and flattening entire blocks as it carved a path of destruction for more than an hour. One person was killed in Alabama.
The tornado devastated a swath of the Mississippi Delta town of Rolling Fork, reducing homes to piles of rubble, flipping cars on their sides and toppling the town's water tower.&nbsp;
Other parts of the Deep South were digging out from damage caused by other suspected twisters.
Throughout Saturday, survivors walked around dazed and in shock as they broke through debris and fallen trees with chain saws, searching for survivors. Power lines were pinned under decades-old oaks, their roots torn from the ground.

 Ram Charan returns to India post 'Naatu Naatu' Oscar win: It's a song of people of India

The Academy Award-winning song was recently played at a parking lot in New Jersey which was apparently full of Tesla cars

'Naatu Naatu', the song from the movie 'RRR' was given an illuminating tribute by electric car maker Tesla.&nbsp;
The Academy Award-winning song was recently played at a parking lot in New Jersey which was apparently full of Tesla cars.
Shared by RRR movie's official Twitter handle, the clip that has now gone viral shows people enjoying the song while the parked cars are flashing headlights and taillights to the beats of 'Naatu Naatu.' Meanwhile, people can be seen dancing, cheering and hooting.
RRR tweeted, ".@Teslalightshows light sync with the beats of #Oscar &nbsp;Winning Song #NaatuNaatu in New Jersey. Thanks for all the love."&nbsp;
For the last 2-3 years, Tesla has been doing similar light shows to mark special occasions.
The electric car maker uses car lights and speakers for the light show. Tesla in 2021 had come up with this initiative of mini concerts using its electric cars' lights.
At the 95th Academy Awards, the foot-tapping chartbuster &ldquo;Naatu Naatu&rdquo;, composed by MM Keeravaani and penned by Chandrabose, made the Telugu feature film the first Indian production to bring home the golden statuette.
The song was also performed at the Oscars ceremony by singers Kaala Bhairava and Rahul Sipligunj.
Directed by SS Rajamouli, "RRR" is a pre-independence fictional story following two real-life Indian revolutionaries Alluri Sitarama Raju (Charan) and Komaram Bheem (Jr NTR) in the 1920s.

N Korea claims ''radioactive tsunami'' weapon test

North Korean underwater drone can trigger radioactive tsunami: reports

North Korea claims to have tested nuclear-capable underwater drone to tackle enemy

The test this week came as the United States reportedly planned to deploy aircraft carrier strike groups and other advanced assets to waters off the Korean Peninsula
&nbsp;

North Korea claimed on Friday to have tested a nuclear-capable underwater drone designed to generate a gigantic &ldquo;radioactive tsunami&rdquo; that would destroy naval strike groups and ports. Analysts were skeptical that the device presents a major new threat, but the test underlines the North's commitment to raising nuclear threats.
The test this week came as the United States reportedly planned to deploy aircraft carrier strike groups and other advanced assets to waters off the Korean Peninsula.
Military tensions are at a high point as the pace of both North Korean weapons tests and US-South Korea joint military exercises has accelerated in the past year in a cycle of tit-for-tat responses.
Pyongyang's official Korean Central News Agency said the new weapon, which can be deployed from the coast or towed by surface ships, is built to &ldquo;stealthily infiltrate into operational waters and make a super-scale radioactive tsunami through an underwater explosion to destroy naval strike groups and major operational ports of the enemy.&rdquo; The North Korean report came hours before South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol pledged to make North Korea pay for its &ldquo;reckless provocations&rdquo; as he attended a remembrance service honoring 55 South Korean troops killed during major clashes with the North near their western sea border in past years.
The testing of the purported &ldquo;nuclear underwater attack drone&rdquo; was part of a three-day exercise that simulated nuclear attacks on unspecified South Korean targets, which also included cruise missile launches on Wednesday.
KCNA said that the drills were supervised by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who condemned the US-South Korean drills as invasion rehearsals and vowed to make his rivals &ldquo;plunge into despair.&rdquo; The drone is named &ldquo;Haeil,&rdquo; a Korean word meaning tidal waves or tsunamis. The North's official Rodong Sinmun newspaper published photos of Kim smiling next to a large torpedo-shaped object at an unspecified indoor facility, but didn't identify it.
Other photos published with the same article showed sea-surface tracks supposedly caused by the drone's underwater trajectory and a pillar of water exploding up into the air, possibly caused by what state media described as an underwater detonation of a mock nuclear weapon carried by the drone.
KCNA said the North's latest tests were aimed at alerting the United States and South Korea of a brewing &ldquo;nuclear crisis&rdquo; as they continue with their &ldquo;intentional, persistent and provocative war drills.&rdquo; The U.S. and South Korea completed an 11-day exercise that included their biggest field training in years on Thursday, and are preparing another round of joint naval drills that will reportedly involve a US aircraft carrier.
KCNA said the latest drills verified the operational reliability of the drone, which it said the North has been developing since 2012 and tested more 50 times in the past two years, although the weapon was never mentioned before in state media until Friday.
KCNA said the drone was deployed off the North's eastern coast on Tuesday, traveled underwater for nearly 60 hours, and detonated a test warhead at a target standing for an enemy port.
Kim Dong-yub, a professor at Seoul's University of North Korean Studies, said that it's impossible to verify North Korea's claims about the drone's capabilities or that it had tested the system dozens of times.
But, he said, the North is intending to communicate that the weapon has enough range to reach all South Korean ports.
Ankit Panda, a senior analyst at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, questioned the wisdom of North Korea devoting resources to the drone system as a means of delivery versus its ballistic missiles when it has limited amounts of nuclear materials suitable for weapons.
&ldquo;This un-crewed underwater vehicle will be vulnerable to anti-submarine warfare capabilities if it were to deploy beyond North Korea's coastal waters. It will also be susceptible to preemptive strikes when in port,&rdquo; said Panda.
&ldquo;Indeed, the US and South Korea would have incentives in a crisis to preempt any such systems before they could deploy.&rdquo; North Korea is believed to have dozens of nuclear warheads and may be capable of fitting them on older weapons systems, such as Scuds or Rodong missiles.
However, there are different assessments on how far it has advanced in engineering those warheads to fit on the new weapons it has developed at a rapid pace, which might require further technological upgrades and nuclear tests.
Speaking to lawmakers on Thursday, South Korean Defense Minister Lee Jong-Sup said the North probably hasn't yet mastered the technology to place nuclear arms on its most advanced weapons, although acknowledging that the country was making &ldquo;significant progress.&rdquo; On Wednesday, North Korea also test-fired cruise missiles in launches that were detected and publicized by South Korea's military.
It also staged another nuclear attack simulation with a short-range ballistic missile on Sunday and flight-tested an intercontinental ballistic missile last week that may be able to reach the continental United States.
KCNA said Wednesday's tests were of four cruise missiles and two different types. The missiles flew for more than two hours in patterns over the sea while demonstrating an ability to strike targets 1,500 kilometres (932 miles) and 1,800 kilometres (1,118 miles) away.
It said the missiles' mock nuclear warheads were detonated 600 metres (1,968 feet) above their targets, which supposedly verified the reliability of their nuclear explosion control devices and warhead detonators.
KCNA said Kim Jong Un was satisfied with the three-day drills and directed unspecified additional tasks to counter the &ldquo;reckless military provocations&rdquo; of his rivals, indicating North Korea will further ramp up its military displays.
He &ldquo;expressed his will to make the US imperialists and the (South) Korean puppet regime plunge into despair&rdquo; with powerful demonstrations of his military nuclear program to make his rivals understand &ldquo;they are bound to lose more than they get&rdquo; with the expansion of their joint drills.
Kim issued similar language Sunday after a test-firing of a short-range ballistic missile from what was possibly a silo dug into the ground. The North's media said a mock nuclear warhead placed on the missile detonated 800 metres (2,624 feet) above water, an altitude that would maximize damage.
It was the first time North Korea publicised a nuclear detonation at such an altitude, though it has previously claimed to have simulated nuclear strikes on its rivals.
The North has fired over 20 ballistic and cruise missiles across 10 launch events this year as it tries to diversify its delivery systems and display the ability to conduct nuclear strikes on both South Korea and the US mainland.
North Korea already is coming off a record year in testing activity, with more than 70 missiles fired in 2022, as Kim accelerated a campaign aimed at negotiating badly needed sanctions relief from a position of strength and forcing the United States to accept the idea of the North as a nuclear power.

According to the ALA, over 2,500 individual books were "targeted for censorship" last year, up from around 1,900 in 2021.

Attempts at banning books in US reach record high: report

Requests for books to be removed from US shelves soared to a record-high in 2022,

According to the ALA, over 2,500 individual books were "targeted for censorship" last year, up from around 1,900 in 2021.

Requests for books to be removed from US shelves soared to a record high in 2022, with the majority of titles "targeted for censorship" related to LGBTQ issues and minorities, according to data released by the American Library Association Thursday.
A total of 1,269 individual "challenges" -- demands to restrict or remove one or more books -- were filed in the United States last year, the NGO said.
This beat the previous record of 729 set a year prior, according to the association, which began recording such data in 2003.
"Of those titles, the vast majority were written by or about members of the LGBTQIA+ community and people of color," the ALA said.
"Overwhelmingly, we're seeing these challenges come from organized censorship groups that target local library board meetings to demand removal of a long list of books they share on social media," Deborah Caldwell-Stone, director of the ALA's Office for Intellectual Freedom, said in a statement.
According to the ALA, over 2,500 individual books were "targeted for censorship" last year, up from around 1,900 in 2021.
The vast majority (86 percent) were children's books, and more than half (58 percent) were books taught or available at school.
"Their aim is to suppress the voices of those traditionally excluded from our nation's conversations, such as people in the LGBTQIA+ community or people of color."

China slams possible US plan to force TikTok sale


Governments around the world are worried that its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, might give browsing history or other data about users to Beijing or promote propaganda and disinformation
<div class="content-block">&nbsp;</div>

China&rsquo;s government says it would oppose any U.S. plan to force TikTok&rsquo;s Chinese owner to sell the short-video service.
TikTok has ballooned its American user base to 150 million in a few short years.
But governments around the world are worried that its Chinese parent company, ByteDance, might give browsing history or other data about users to Beijing or promote propaganda and disinformation.
The Wall Street Journal reported U.S. authorities were considering banning TikTok if ByteDance doesn&rsquo;t sell the company.
&ldquo;If the news is true, China will resolutely oppose it,&rdquo; Ministry of Commerce spokesperson Shu Jueting said on Thursday, although she did not specify what that might entail.
She also warned that a ban would hurt investor confidence in the United States.
The debate about TikTok has been swept up in a wider geopolitical battle between Beijing and Washington over trade and technology, as well as heightened tensions due to recent balloon politics and China&rsquo;s relationship with Russia.

Quixplained: UK's new bill to curb illegal migration

Britain is facing backlash over a new contentious legislation to overhaul the way it handles migrants crossing the Channel on small boats. 

The Illegal Migration Bill places a legal duty on the interior minister to deport anyone who enters the UK illegally, superseding their other rights under human rights conventions.

Britain is facing a domestic and international backlash after unveiling contentious legislation to overhaul the way it handles migrants crossing the Channel on small boats.&nbsp;
The Illegal Migration Bill places a legal duty on the interior minister to deport anyone who enters the UK illegally, superseding their other rights under human rights conventions.
They would be deported home or to a "safe third country", such as Rwanda, under an existing UK plan, where they could then claim asylum.
Legal challenges or human rights claims would be heard in that country. Applicants would be disqualified from using British laws aimed at preventing modern slavery to stop their deportation.
Illegal entrants who are removed also face&middot;a lifetime ban on citizenship and re-entry to the UK.
The government is promising new "safe and legal routes" for refugees, but has yet to spell those out.
Lawmakers would set an annual quota for legal refugees eligible to settle in Britain.

 Air India and a Nepal Airlines aircraft came close to collision mid-air 

Air India and Nepal Airlines aircraft almost collided mid-air, 3 officials suspended: Report

The CAAN has suspended the three officers, who were in charge of the control room at the time of the incident.

A major tragedy was averted on Friday when an Air India and a Nepal Airlines aircraft came close to collision mid-air but the warning systems alerted the pilots whose timely action prevented the disaster, authorities said here on Sunday.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN) has suspended three employees of the air traffic controller department for &ldquo;carelessness&rdquo;, according to CAAN spokesperson Jagannath Niroula.
On Friday morning, an Airbus A-320 aircraft of the Nepal Airlines coming to Kathmandu from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and an Air India plane coming to Kathmandu from New Delhi almost collided.
The Air India aircraft was descending from 19,000 ft while the Nepal Airlines aircraft was flying at an altitude of 15,000 ft at the same location, Niroula said.
After it was shown on the radar that the two aircraft were in proximity, the Nepal Airlines aircraft descended to 7,000 ft, the spokesperson said.

India has summoned the Canadian high commissioner and conveyed its strong concern about the actions of separatist and extremist elements against its diplomatic mission and consulates in Canada recently.
The Government of India on Saturday sought an explanation on how such elements were allowed, in the presence of police, to breach the security of its diplomatic mission and consulates, the Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement.
Canada was reminded of its obligations under the Vienna Convention, and asked to arrest and prosecute the individuals who have already been identified as being involved in such acts, it said.
The ministry hoped that the Canadian government will take all steps needed to ensure the safety of its diplomats and security of its diplomatic premises so that they are able to fulfil their normal diplomatic functions.
On Sunday last, an event to be attended by the Indian envoy to Canada in British Columbia province had to be cancelled due to security concerns after a violent protest by Khalistan supporters.
The event was organised at the Taj Park Convention Centre Surrey to welcome the high commissioner of India, Sanjay Kumar Verma's first visit to the west coast.
The event was ultimately cancelled for security reasons, Global News, the news and current affairs division of the Canadian Global Television Network, had reported.
Indian-origin journalist Sameer Kaushal, who was at the venue to cover the protest, was also assaulted by protesters.
Canada has also seen a rise in anti-India activities recently by Khalistan supporters who have vandalised some Hindu temples.
Last September, the Ministry of External Affairs issued a statement condemning the rise of hate crimes against Indians and anti-India activities in Canada.&nbsp;

Russia announces plans to station tactical nukes in Belarus

Russian President Vladimir Putin announced plans on Saturday to station tactical nuclear weapons in neighbouring Belarus, a warning to the West as it steps up military support for Ukraine.

Tactical nuclear weapons are intended for use on the battlefield, unlike more powerful, longer-range strategic nuclear weapons.

Russian President Vladimir Putin announced plans on Saturday to station tactical nuclear weapons in neighbouring Belarus, a warning to the West as it steps up military support for Ukraine.
Putin said the move was triggered by Britain's decision this past week to provide Ukraine with armor-piercing rounds containing depleted uranium. The Russian leader earlier made a false claim that the rounds have nuclear components.
He subsequently toned down his language, but insisted in a state television interview broadcast Saturday night that the ammunition posed an additional danger to both troops and civilians in Ukraine.
Tactical nuclear weapons are intended for use on the battlefield, unlike more powerful, longer-range strategic nuclear weapons.&nbsp;
Putin didn't say how many nuclear weapons Russia would keep in Belarus. The U.S. government believes Russia has about 2,000 tactical nuclear weapons, which include bombs that can be carried by tactical aircraft, warheads for short-range missiles and artillery rounds.
