The Israeli Prime Minister's comments came after missiles from Gaza were fired into Israel.The most recent reports state that the Hamas rocket fire has resulted in at least 5 deaths and more than 100 injuries. According to The Times of Israel, Israel's south and centre were subjected to continuous rocket fire for more than 3.5 hours on Saturday morning. A statement from Lapid's office stated that "Israel is in an emergency" and that Lapid would support a "harsh military response" to the coordinated strike by Hamas.

MeT : Rain, Snowfall Expected In Kashmir On Oct 9

Srinagar, Oct 7: Due to the rapidly moving Western Disturbance, the weather office in Srinagar has forecast rain and snow for the highlands of Kashmir starting on Monday. The weather is anticipated to clear up starting on Wednesday, and this disturbance will last just briefly. From Monday, the meteorological agency (MeT) anticipates precipitation over higher levels. The MeT reported on Saturday that "rain/snowfall over higher reaches likely at various locations in Jammu and Kashmir during October 9 evening/night with main activity on October 10(70-80% chance)".Snowfall is anticipated in certain higher elevations, including Zojila, Mughal Road, Sinthan Top, various other areas of the Pir Panjal Range, and the higher elevations of Gurez, Baramulla, Anantnag, and Kupwara districts, according to an independent weather forecaster. In the plains, snowfall is not anticipated, he said. After two days of rain, the MeT predicted mostly dry weather from October 14–20.MeT stated that while the odds are slimmer, "a brief spell of rain/snowfall over higher reaches cannot be ruled out." This year, Kashmir experienced extended periods of dry weather and above-average temperatures, which caused the Jhelum and other water bodies' levels to plummet. On September 25, rain finally arrived in Kashmir while the upper regions, including the ski resort of Gulmarg, saw their first snowfall of the year.

Inter-state fraudster charge-sheeted in Rs 28 lac fraud

JAMMU: A preliminary charge-sheet was filed against an interstate fraudster who allegedly defrauded a man from RS Pura of $28 lakh on Friday in a local court here by the crime branch's economic crimes division, according to officials. Upendra Singh Rudradeo of Chappra in Bihar has been named as the defendant. The accused was presently living in Rohini Sector-1 in northwestern Delhi and in Faridabad, Haryana. At Jammu's crime branch police station, a case has been filed under IPC sections 420, 465, and 471. "The fraudster duped a complainant Puran Chand of Gazipur Kulian in RS Pura area of Jammu district of ₹28 lakh after the accused posed as head of the Indian Cooperative Mission (ICOM) and lured the complainant to work with him in various projects of the mission," according to an official spokeswoman. "In January 2017, the accused defrauded the complainant by obtaining $28 lakh.

J&K Congress protests against BJP over Rahul poster

JAMMU: The Jammu and Kashmir Congress protested against the BJP on Friday after one of their social media posters depicted Rahul Gandhi as a "New Age Ravan." The BJP billboard on X had drawn sharp rebuke from the Congress, which on Thursday described it as "downright dangerous" and completely unacceptable. Numerous members of the Congress staged a protest march in the city under the leadership of former minister Yogesh Sawhney. They screamed anti-BJP chants and set BJP effigies on fire. "We denounce the BJP's actions. We are protesting to express our outrage at the BJP's dishonest behaviour. We attempted to hold demonstrations at the Raj Bhawan with a rally, but we were prohibited from doing so, Sawhney informed reporters. "Rahul ji is our leader and we cannot tolerate such language against him." According to Sawhney, he is the country's leader. "The citizens of this nation approve of him. The BJP is using such techniques because it is concerned about the rising public support for Rahul Ji, the speaker claimed.

Viral video: Student’s slipper attack stuns Physics Wallah live class

OCT 06, 2023 : A strange incident involving a student hitting an instructor with a slipper occurred during a live lesson on the Physics Wallah app. The episode, which has now gained widespread attention, has spurred discussions on several social media sites. In the footage, a teacher is shown leading a live lesson when a student abruptly approaches him while holding a slipper and strikes him. The pupil keeps attacking the teacher, and the teacher reflexively ducks to avoid the impact. The student eventually finds his slipper and departs the area. The assault's motivation is still unknown, and since it happened, the footage has been making the rounds on social media. Alakh Pandey, an educator from Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, founded Physics Wallah in 2016. The Physics Wallah app was created by Pandey and co-founder Prateek Maheshwari with the express purpose of assisting students preparing for competitive exams like the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) and the Joint Entrance Exam (JEE). The app is well-known for its educational features and support, but this upsetting incident serves as a reminder of the difficulties facing teachers in the modern era.
