US claims Iran’s new Supreme Leader severely injured, vows unprecedented strikes

Washington: The new Supreme Leader of Iran, Mojtaba Khamenei, is reportedly wounded and likely disfigured, US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said Friday. This came a day after Khamenei released his first statement since assuming Iran’s top office following the death of his father in a joint strike by Iran and US. “We know the new so-called, not-so-supreme leader is wounded and likely disfigured. He put out a statement yesterday, but there was no voice and no video. It was only a written statement. Iran has plenty of cameras and plenty of voice recorders — so why only a written…

These fruits are grown in a controlled environment and then checked for perfection before being presented in a luxurious package. Due to this high level of detail and care, some fruits…

Rajeev Shukla explains BCCI’s stance on Sunrisers Leeds signing Pakistan’s Abrar Ahmed in The Hundred

New Delhi: Sunrisers Leeds signed Pakistan leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed for 190,000 pounds on Thursday, March 12, for the upcoming The Hundred. The development drew significant attention, as the Indian owners have refrained from investing in Pakistani talent over the last few years. Kavya Maran, Sunrisers’ Chief Executive Officer (CEO), was present at the table with head coach Daniel Vettori when Sunrisers bid for Abrar. That move eventually triggered strong reactions online, with some fans in India expressing anger and even calling for a boycott of Sunrisers Hyderabad during the IPL season. Soon after criticism gained traction on social media, the…

WATCH: US Treasury Secretary summoned by Trump mid interview, he returns two hours later visibly shaken

Washington: US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was caught in a rather intense moment as he had to pause a live TV interview in middle after getting called by President Donald Trump for an immediate meeting.

Bessent ended up being away for around 2 hours before joining back the interview.

Gurugram’s luxury home market booms, enters a multi-corridor growth phase

Gurugram: It is becoming difficult to ignore what is happening in Gurugram’s upper end of the housing market. Transactions in the Rs 10-crore-plus category have been stacking up at a pace that, until recently, was almost exclusively associated with Mumbai. Industry estimates suggest that in 2025 alone, high-value residential sales in the city crossed Rs 24,000 crore. For a market that was once seen largely as a satellite to Delhi’s residential demand, that number carries a certain quiet disruption. What is equally notable is that the demand is not concentrated in one or two prestige addresses anymore. The familiar spine…

Salman Agha’s stupidity triggers heated moment, Pakistan-Bangladesh’s newfound ‘love’ turns ugly | WATCH

Dhaka: Pakistan batter Salman Agha was left stunned and furious after Mehidy Hasan Miraz tricked and dismissed him in the second ODI between Bangladesh and Pakistan at the Sher-E-Bangla Stadium in Dhaka. The tense moment unfolded on the 39th over of the first innings when Mohammad Rizwan played a straight drive, which was stopped by Miraz using his leg. Interestingly, Agha, who was out of his crease, bent to pick up the ball and pass it to Miraz but the Bangladesh all-rounder had another plan in mind. Miraz quickly collected it and underarm threw at the stumps. With Agha still…

South Africa, stupidest team in T20 World Cup, should have eliminated India, says Michael Vaughan

New Delhi: Former England captain Michael Vaughan has stirred debate with a blunt assessment of South Africa’s campaign at the T20 World Cup 2026, arguing that their own decision-making indirectly cleared the path for India’s title run. His argument centred on South Africa’s victory over West Indies in Ahmedabad, a result that confirmed the Proteas’ qualification for the semi-final, while also shaping the qualification scenario for other teams in the group. At that point in the tournament, India had suffered a heavy 76-run defeat to South Africa, a setback that left the side on the verge of elimination. Their route…
