The Trinamool Congress in West Bengal is facing a severe internal crisis characterised by mass absenteeism, resignations, and the expulsion of two lawmakers following allegations of forged signatures. This political instability coincides with an attack on party leader Abhishek Banerjee in Sonarpur, sparking a debate between the Trinamool Congress and the BJP regarding the state's law and order situation. Simultaneously, Nepal Prime Minister Balendra Shah has reignited border disputes with India during a parliamentary address. Shah cited territorial encroachments in the Kalapani, Lipulekh, and Limpiyadhura regions, suggesting a negotiated settlement involving historians and potential third-party mediation from China and the United Kingdom. In West Asia, geopolitical tensions have escalated as the United States conducted bombings on Iranian missile sites on Kish Island, leading to retaliatory strikes on a US base in Kuwait. Furthermore, Israel has intensified military operations in Lebanon, seizing Beaufort Castle and advancing south of the Zahrani River, despite international calls for a ceasefire.
