Dmitry Trenin: Why the next world order will be armed with nukes

Heavy rains triggered devastating floods in Kerr County, Texas, early Friday, leaving at least 13 dead and over 20 campers missing. Local officials describe the situation as "catastrophic," with rescue efforts underway amid dangerous conditions.

A preliminary report on the tragic Air India crash that killed 260 people suggests the plane's fuel supply was abruptly cut off just moments before impact. Investigators are now digging into whether this was a technical failure or human error—raising tough questions about safety protocols.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another crash report—it’s a critical clue in understanding what went wrong. If fuel systems failed mid-flight, it could signal deeper issues in maintenance or procedures, putting pressure on airlines and regulators to prevent similar disasters. For grieving families, it’s also a painful step toward answers.

HALO Air Ambulance just added another helicopter to its fleet, boosting its ability to provide emergency medical services across southern Alberta. This expansion means faster response times and more coverage for critical care in the region.

Editor’s Note: For folks in southern Alberta, this could literally be a lifesaver. More helicopters mean HALO can reach remote or hard-to-access areas quicker during emergencies—whether it's a car crash, heart attack, or other urgent medical situation. It’s a tangible upgrade for community health and safety.

In the aftermath of devastating Texas floods, FEMA failed to respond to thousands of calls from survivors seeking help—largely because the agency didn’t renew contracts for call center staff in time. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem didn’t approve the contract extension until days later, leaving desperate people in limbo.

Editor’s Note: When disasters strike, every minute counts. This isn’t just bureaucratic red tape—it’s a breakdown that left flood survivors without critical support when they needed it most. It raises serious questions about FEMA’s preparedness and whether the agency can be relied on in future crises.

A pro-Khalistani group called Sikhs for Justice (SFJ) has reportedly issued a threat to Indian comedian Kapil Sharma, warning him against treating Canada as his "playground." The group’s statement appears linked to Sharma’s recent comments or activities, though specifics remain unclear. This adds to growing tensions involving Sikh separatist groups and Indian public figures abroad.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about a celebrity spat—it’s another flare-up in the strained relationship between Sikh separatist factions and Indian nationals overseas. With Canada already a sensitive ground for these tensions (remember the Nijjar killing fallout?), threats like this could escalate diplomatic friction or even personal safety concerns for high-profile Indians abroad. It’s a reminder of how diaspora politics can spill into public life in unsettling ways.
