New Delhi Blast Investigated as Potential Terror Attack

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has vowed to pursue justice after a deadly explosion in New Delhi. Authorities are investigating the blast as a possible act of terrorism, though no group has claimed responsibility. The incident caused multiple fatalities, with further details on casualties still emerging.

Key Developments

• Modi condemned the attack in a public statement, calling it a “shameful act” and promising “strict punishment” for perpetrators.
• Delhi police confirmed explosives were used and are analyzing forensic evidence to identify suspects.
• Security has been heightened nationwide, with officials urging caution against unverified information.

Ongoing Questions

Investigators have not yet disclosed a potential motive or confirmed links to specific groups. Collaborative efforts between central agencies and local law enforcement are underway to determine the blast’s origins. Updates are expected as the probe progresses.

🏛️Court Rolls With Election Woes: The Supreme Court addressed petitions challenging the rushed Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter rolls in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal, citing concerns like rural 4G/5G gaps, compressed 1-month timelines (vs. 3 years earlier), and fears of ineligible voters. Justices issued notices on six petitions, directed High Courts to pause related cases, and scheduled the next hearing for November 26 (Constitution Day). AIADMK's supportive application faced skepticism, while petitioners argued regional challenges like festivals and harvest seasons impeded voter access. The ECI defended the process, but the court acknowledged procedural concerns. Read more

💥Doctors Without Orders: Dr. Shaheen Sayeed, a UP-based physician linked to Al Falah University, was allegedly central to establishing Jaish-e-Mohammed's women’s wing in India, aiming to recruit educated professionals. Her arrest followed a multi-state crackdown on a terror module involving 2,900 kg of explosives. Hours later, a Hyundai i20—driven by Dr. Umar Nabi, another Al Falah associate from Pulwama—exploded near Delhi’s Red Fort, killing 12. Investigators suspect Nabi detonated the car after learning of Shaheen’s arrest. DNA tests and CCTV analysis are underway, with ties to the 2019 Pulwama attack emerging. Delhi remains on high alert as NIA probes the network. Read more

📉 Golden Lull After Shutdown Storm: Gold dipped to $4,107, retreating from a three-week high amid profit-taking as the US Senate voted to end a record-long government shutdown. Weak jobs data fueled bets on Fed rate cuts, pressuring the dollar. Despite the temporary funding deal (expiring Jan 30), lingering fiscal risks and mixed China trade signals—expanding market access while restricting rare-earth exports—kept markets cautious. Technically, gold faces resistance near $4,150 after breaking a two-week range, with RSI overbought levels hinting at consolidation. Bulls eye $4,200 if support at $4,100 holds. Read more

🌙Sleep Your Way to Injury-Free Runs: A new study reveals inadequate sleep nearly doubles injury risk for runners. Researchers found those getting less than 7-9 hours nightly face 1.78x higher injury odds, with 68% likelihood of harm annually. Sleep quality and consistency are as vital as training, aiding tissue repair and focus. Simple fixes: set regular bedtimes, reduce screens/alcohol before bed, and prioritize rest. Runners juggling training with life demands may need even more sleep. “How you rest is as crucial as how you train,” emphasizes lead researcher Prof. Jan de Jonge. Read more

⚖️ MAGA Meltdown Over Mossad Myths: FBI Director Kash Patel faces calls to resign from right-wing commentator Candace Owens after his girlfriend Alexis Wilkins sued MAGA podcaster Elijah Schaffer for $5 million. Schaffer reposted conspiracy theories alleging Wilkins is a Mossad agent who "honeytrapped" Patel, marking Wilkins' third defamation lawsuit against MAGA figures. Owens criticized Patel as a "teenager in love," claiming his role is compromised. Schaffer mocked the suit as "delusional" and sought Elon Musk’s help, while Patel defended Wilkins, calling the attacks "baseless" and threatening their safety. The feud highlights divisions within MAGA circles over the FBI director's loyalty. Read more

🖼️ Neanderthals’ Cognitive Canvas: Archaeologists discovered 57,000-year-old finger engravings in France’s sealed La Roche-Cotard cave, crediting Neanderthals as the creators. The cave, untouched by modern humans, contained abstract markings like lines, grids, and arcs pressed into soft limestone. Dating methods and Mousterian tools link the art to Neanderthals, challenging assumptions that symbolic expression was unique to Homo sapiens. A parallel study used AI to analyze ancient finger flutings, achieving 84% accuracy in identifying creators’ sex. Together, these findings suggest Neanderthals engaged in intentional, non-functional artistry, reshaping understanding of their cognitive complexity. Read more

🛩️ Thunderbirds Are Bluffing?: Russia alleges it foiled a UK-Ukraine plan to hijack a Kinzhal-hypersonic-armed MiG-31 jet and divert it to a NATO base in Romania, offering pilots $3M and Western citizenship. Ukraine and Romania dismissed the claims as Russian propaganda to undermine Western support. The FSB released footage of a masked soldier describing recruitment attempts, echoing a 2023 incident where a defecting Russian pilot was later killed in Spain. The MiG-31K, modified to launch Kinzhals, requires specialized training due to aerodynamic and navigation changes from its missile payload. Kyiv called the accusations a distraction from Russian aggression. Read more
