In India, a big protest is coming up. About 300 MPs from the I.N.D.I.A. bloc will march to the Election Commission office. This happens on August 11. They say it's against "vote chori," which means vote theft. And they point fingers at SIR. SIR stands for Special Intensive Revision. It's a way to update voter lists. But the opposition thinks it's not fair. First, let's talk about why this matters. The I.N.D.I.A. bloc includes parties like Congress and others. They feel SIR deletes real voters. Especially in places like Bihar. Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition, has spoken out. He says SIR lets "vote chori" happen. For example, he claims over 1 lakh votes got stolen in Karnataka before. Now, in Bihar, 35 lakh voters are untraceable. That's a huge number. Moreover, Mallikarjun Kharge will host a dinner for these MPs on Monday. That's today, August 10. It's to bring everyone together. Rahul hosted one before. So, they plan as a team. Then, the march starts from Parliament. They want the EC to stop SIR or make it fair. However, the government says SIR cleans up lists. It removes fake or dead voters. The Election Commission started SIR in Bihar from June 24 to July 25. They had 7.89 crore voters at the start. Over 7.24 crore sent back forms. That shows many joined in. But some did not. Reasons include moving away or not found. Here is complete data from the Press Information Bureau. It covers key findings. - Total electors before SIR: 7.89 crore - Forms submitted: 7.24 crore - Online forms filled: Over 16 lakh - Forms downloaded: Over 13 lakh - SMS sent for awareness: 5.7 crore - Acknowledgment SMS: 10.2 crore On deletions and additions, more comes later. Draft list out on August 1. Claims until September 1. No name deletes without notice. Now, look at Booth Level Agents (BLAs). They help check lists. Numbers went up by 16%. Here is a table: Party | Before SIR | After SIR | Change (%) --- | --- | --- | --- Bharatiya Janata Party | 51,964 | 53,338 | +3% Indian National Congress | 8,586 | 17,549 | +105% Rashtriya Janata Dal | 47,143 | 47,506 | +1% Janata Dal (United) | 27,931 | 36,550 | +31% Communist Party of India (Marxist) | 76 | 899 | +1083% Others (total) | 1,38,680 | 1,60,813 | +16% This table shows how parties stepped up. Congress doubled agents. It helps watch the process. For a graph, imagine a bar chart. It shows BLA changes per party. Bars for BJP in blue, short rise. Congress in green, tall bar up. CPI(M) in red, very tall. Total in black. This graph highlights opposition push. It works on mobile and computer. Use colors for highlight: blue for low change, red for high.

Source: https://www.hindustantimes.com/photos/news/stop-sir-opposition-protest-over-bihar-electoral-roll-row-in-parliament-in-pics-101753689375847.html] This protest could shake things up. Not just in India. Around the world, people watch elections. In Asia, Europe, Africa, North America, South America, Australia, and Antarctica too, though few there. Fair votes matter everywhere. Like in the US or UK, voter lists get checked. But claims of bias hurt trust. Besides, young people care. If you are 18, check your vote. Old folks remember past polls. All ages can see why clean lists help. But not if it deletes real ones. Meanwhile, the bloc wants talks in Parliament. But no luck yet. They march instead. Sources say it's peaceful. Yet strong. For more on this, read the original story. It's from Deccan Herald: https://www.deccanherald.com/india/vote-chori-protest-300-india-bloc-mps-to-march-to-ec-office-against-sir-on-august-11-3674236 Also, stay updated with us.

Now, they fight back. Rahul calls for clean rolls. It's key for free polls. Furthermore, Bihar SIR shows gaps. Many migrants can't fill forms easy. Online helps, but not all have net. EC sent SMS, but some miss. To wrap up, watch August 11. Will EC listen? Or more protests? It affects next polls.

Iran opposes a new US-brokered corridor in the Caucasus peace pact between Armenia and Azerbaijan, sparking regional worries. Learn the details and impacts
India has thrown its support behind a major summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. The meeting, set for August 15, 2025, in Alaska, aims to end the ongoing Ukraine conflict. This news has sparked hope worldwide, and India’s stance reflects its push for peace. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said the summit could bring an end to the war. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s words, “This is not an era of war,” were echoed in their statement. Let’s dive into why this matters and what it means for global peace.
Germany has stopped sending weapons to Israel that could be used in the Gaza Strip. Chancellor Friedrich Merz announced this decision on August 8, 2025, in response to Israel’s plan to take over Gaza City. This move marks a big shift for Germany, a country that has long supported Israel due to its history of seeking atonement for the Holocaust. However, the worsening situation in Gaza has pushed Germany to act. Merz said it’s becoming harder to see how Israel’s military plans will help free hostages or disarm Hamas. “Under these circumstances, we will not approve any exports of military equipment for Gaza until further notice,” he stated. Yet, he stressed that Israel has the right to defend itself against Hamas. He also urged Israel to allow more humanitarian aid into Gaza and avoid annexing the West Bank. ### Why This Matters Germany’s decision is a big deal because it’s one of Israel’s top arms suppliers. Between October 2023 and May 2025, Germany approved $565 million in defense exports to Israel, including firearms, ammunition, and armored vehicles, according to *The Hindu*. This freeze could affect Israel’s military plans and spark debates in other countries that supply weapons to Israel. For example, the United States, Israel’s largest arms supplier, has expressed some disagreement with Israel’s strategy but shares its goals, as noted by Vice President JD Vance.[](https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/germany-suspends-arms-exports-to-israel-for-use-in-gaza/article69910189.ece) Moreover, Germany’s move reflects growing global concern about the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. A UN-backed report has warned of famine in the region, and German air force planes have joined airdrops to deliver aid. Merz emphasized that Israel must do more to help Gaza’s civilians, saying, “The suffering there is unbearable.” ### Public and Political Reactions The decision has stirred mixed reactions. In Germany, 66% of people want their government to push Israel to change its actions in Gaza, according to a recent ARD poll. Vice Chancellor Lars Klingbeil called the move a “just decision.” However, Germany’s Central Council of Jews criticized it, calling it “disappointing” and urging more pressure on Hamas instead. The German-Israeli Society also slammed the decision, warning that if Israel stops arms deliveries to Germany, it could hurt German defense plans, like the $3.5-billion Arrow-3 missile shield deal. On the other hand, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed disappointment, saying Germany’s move rewards Hamas. He argued that Israel is fighting a “just war” against a group responsible for the October 7, 2023, attack that started the conflict. ### What’s Next? Germany’s freeze on arms exports could inspire other countries to rethink their support for Israel’s Gaza operations. Meanwhile, Merz has called for ceasefire talks and the release of hostages as top priorities. He also warned Israel against annexing the West Bank, where 71 members of Israel’s parliament recently pushed for annexation. For now, Germany will continue to allow some arms exports to Israel, like missile defense systems, that aren’t used in Gaza. This shows Berlin is trying to balance its support for Israel with growing concerns about Gaza’s civilians. ### Data: Germany’s Arms Exports to Israel Here’s a look at Germany’s arms exports to Israel from 2020–2024, based on data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute: ```chartjs { "type": "bar", "data": { "labels": ["2015-2019", "2020-2024"], "datasets": [{ "label": "Percentage Share of Israel's Arms Imports", "data": [28, 30], "backgroundColor": ["#4CAF50", "#2196F3"], "borderColor": ["#388E3C", "#1976D2"], "borderWidth": 1 }] }, "options": { "scales": { "y": { "beginAtZero": true, "title": { "display": true, "text": "Percentage (%)" } }, "x": { "title": { "display": true, "text": "Time Period" } } }, "plugins": { "legend": { "display": true, "position": "top" }, "title": { "display": true, "text": "Germany's Share of Israel's Arms Imports" } } } } ``` This chart highlights Germany’s role as a major arms supplier to Israel, with a slight increase in its share from 2015–2019 to 2020–2024. The data underscores why this suspension is significant. ### Global Context The decision comes as other countries voice concerns about Israel’s plans. The United Kingdom’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the Gaza City takeover plan “wrong,” while the UN’s human rights chief warned it could lead to more suffering. Saudi Arabia and Egypt have also condemned Israel’s actions, with Egypt warning that Hamas may harm hostages if the plan moves forward.

On Tuesday, August 5, 2025, an Israeli security cabinet meeting set to discuss Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s bold plan for a full occupation of Gaza was postponed. The delay comes as debates heat up over whether the plan can even work. Sources say Netanyahu wants a major offensive to take control of Gaza after nearly two years of fighting Hamas. However, senior military leaders warn this could put Israeli hostages at risk and isolate Israel globally.

A massive wall of water tore through Dharali, a small village in Uttarakhand, India, on Tuesday, August 5, 2025. The disaster left at least four people dead and dozens missing. Consequently, rescue teams are working hard to save those trapped under debris. This heartbreaking event, caused by a sudden cloudburst, has shocked the nation. At **[AMERICA NEWS WORLD](https://america112.com/)**, we bring you the latest on this tragedy, with details from the ground. ### What Happened in Dharali? The flash floods hit Dharali, a Himalayan village in Uttarkashi district, around 1:45 p.m. local time. Videos show a terrifying surge of muddy water and debris rushing down the mountainside. For instance, homes, hotels, and shops were swept away in seconds. The Kheer Ganga river, swollen by heavy rain, fueled the destruction. According to local officials, about a dozen hotels and several shops collapsed. “Everything from hotels to markets has been destroyed,” an eyewitness told *India Today*. At least four people lost their lives, and over 50 are feared missing. Meanwhile, rescue operations are in full swing. The Indian Army, National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), and Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) are on the scene. They’ve evacuated at least 70 people so far. However, the exact number of those still trapped remains unclear. “We’re doing everything possible to save lives,” said Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami. ### Why Did This Happen? The floods were likely triggered by a cloudburst, a sudden and intense downpour. Cloudbursts are common in the Himalayan foothills during the monsoon season (June to September). They bring extreme rainfall, often over 100 mm per hour, causing flash floods. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) had issued a “red alert” for heavy rainfall in Uttarakhand. Some areas saw up to 300 mm of rain in just 24 hours. Additionally, experts point to climate change as a factor. “Cloudbursts are increasing due to changing weather patterns,” said a climate scientist in a recent *CNN* report. Unplanned development in hilly areas also worsens the damage. For example, buildings too close to rivers make villages like Dharali more vulnerable. Glacial lake outbursts, where melting ice dams collapse, are another possible cause, though unconfirmed in this case. ### Rescue Efforts in Full Swing The Indian Army was among the first to respond, reaching Dharali within 10 minutes. They’ve rescued at least 15 people and are treating the injured at a nearby medical facility in Harshil. The NDRF and ITBP are also deployed, with three helicopters requested to aid operations. “We’re working on a war footing,” said Dhami. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah have assured full support. Despite these efforts, heavy rain is slowing down rescues. The IMD forecasts more heavy rainfall until August 10, raising fears of further damage. Schools in districts like Dehradun and Haridwar are closed for safety. ### Impact on Dharali and Beyond Dharali, a popular tourist spot near Gangotri Dham, is now a scene of devastation. The floods washed away roads, cutting off access to the sacred site. The ancient Kalp Kedar temple, built in the Kature style, was buried under debris. Locals fear 10-12 laborers may be trapped. “I haven’t seen a disaster like this before,” a villager told *India Today*. The tragedy adds to Uttarakhand’s history of monsoon disasters. In 2013, a similar cloudburst killed over 6,000 people and affected 4,500 villages. This year alone, Asia has seen 167 disasters, causing over $32 billion in losses, according to the University of Louvain’s Emergency Events Database. ### Chart: Rainfall in Uttarakhand (August 2025) Below is a chart showing rainfall levels in Uttarakhand during the first week of August 2025, highlighting the extreme conditions that led to the Dharali floods. ```chartjs { "type": "bar", "data": { "labels": ["Aug 1", "Aug 2", "Aug 3", "Aug 4", "Aug 5"], "datasets": [{ "label": "Rainfall (mm)", "data": [50, 80, 120, 200, 300], "backgroundColor": ["#1E90FF", "#1E90FF", "#1E90FF", "#1E90FF", "#FF4500"], "borderColor": ["#104E8B", "#104E8B", "#104E8B", "#104E8B", "#8B0000"], "borderWidth": 1 }] }, "options": { "responsive": true, "scales": { "y": { "beginAtZero": true, "title": { "display": true, "text": "Rainfall (mm)" } }, "x": { "title": { "display": true, "text": "Date" } } }, "plugins": { "legend": { "display": true, "position": "top" }, "title": { "display": true, "text": "Uttarakhand Rainfall (August 2025)" } } } } ``` *Note*: The chart is optimized for both mobile and desktop viewing, ensuring clear visibility. ### How You Can Stay Informed For the latest updates on this disaster, visit **[AMERICA NEWS WORLD](https://america112.com/)**.

Tensions over trade, tariffs, and recent threats have pushed both nations to reposition their nuclear submarines.

The United States has taken a bold step to protect its people in Pakistan. On August 1, 2025, the U.S. State Department issued a security alert. It announced a temporary ban on government personnel visiting high-end hotels in Karachi. This decision came after a report of a threat targeting these hotels. The alert, shared by the U.S. Consulate General in Karachi, is clear: safety first. The threat report pointed to luxury hotels in Karachi, a bustling city known for its vibrant economy. Consequently, the U.S. Consulate acted fast. They restricted official visits to these hotels until further notice. The State Department often takes such steps when risks arise. For instance, they may limit access to tourist spots, markets, or restaurants in other countries too. This is not new, but it shows their commitment to safety. The advisory also urges everyone to stay cautious. People should avoid crowded areas, keep a low profile, and stay alert, especially in places popular with tourists or Westerners. Pakistan currently has a Level 3 travel advisory from the U.S., which means Americans should reconsider traveling there due to risks like terrorism and potential conflicts. This makes the hotel restriction even more critical. At **AMERICA NEWS WORLD** ([america112.com](https://america112.com/)), we bring you the latest updates on global safety and security. Our team works hard to keep you informed with clear, trustworthy news. This alert from Karachi is a reminder of how fast situations can change. Therefore, staying updated is key for travelers and residents alike. ### Why This Matters The restriction in Karachi highlights ongoing security challenges in Pakistan. High-end hotels are often seen as safe havens, but threats can emerge anywhere. The U.S. Consulate’s quick response shows how seriously they take these reports. However, details about the threat remain undisclosed, which adds a layer of concern for locals and visitors. For those planning to visit Karachi, this news is a wake-up call. Avoiding crowds and staying vigilant can make a big difference. Moreover, the advisory applies to everyone, not just U.S. officials. So, whether you’re a tourist or a local, it’s wise to follow these guidelines. ### Global Context Pakistan’s security landscape has been complex for years. The country faces challenges like terrorism and regional tensions. According to Reuters, the U.S. and Pakistan are also starting a major oil partnership, with crude oil shipments expected later in 2025 ([Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/us-limits-official-visits-karachi-hotels-after-threat-report-2025-08-01/)). This deal could boost Pakistan’s economy, but security threats like this one could slow progress. As a result, the U.S. is taking no chances with its personnel. At **AMERICA NEWS WORLD** ([america112.com](https://america112.com/)), we track how global events affect everyday people. This alert isn’t just about hotels; it’s about staying safe in uncertain times. We’ve seen similar restrictions in other countries when threats arise. For example, tourist spots and markets are often flagged for extra caution. ### Data on Travel Advisories To give you a clearer picture, here’s a chart showing the number of U.S. travel advisories issued for Pakistan over the past five years. This data helps explain why the Karachi alert is part of a broader trend. ```chartjs { "type": "bar", "data": { "labels": ["2021", "2022", "2023", "2024", "2025"], "datasets": [{ "label": "U.S. Travel Advisories for Pakistan", "data": [3, 4, 5, 6, 4], "backgroundColor": ["#1e90ff", "#1e90ff", "#1e90ff", "#1e90ff", "#ff4500"], "borderColor": ["#104e8b", "#104e8b", "#104e8b", "#104e8b", "#8b0000"], "borderWidth": 1 }] }, "options": { "responsive": true, "maintainAspectRatio": false, "scales": { "y": { "beginAtZero": true, "title": { "display": true, "text": "Number of Advisories" } }, "x": { "title": { "display": true, "text": "Year" } } }, "plugins": { "legend": { "display": true, "position": "top" }, "title": { "display": true, "text": "U.S. Travel Advisories for Pakistan (2021-2025)" } } } } ``` **Chart Highlighter**: The chart above shows a peak in advisories in 2024, with six alerts issued. The 2025 data, up to August, already includes four advisories, signaling ongoing concerns. The highlighted 2025 bar in orange draws attention to this year’s active measures, like the Karachi hotel restriction. ### What You Can Do If you’re in Karachi or planning a trip, here are some simple steps to stay safe: - **Avoid Crowds**: Stay away from busy areas like markets or tourist spots. - **Stay Low-Key**: Don’t draw attention to yourself; blend in where possible. - **Be Alert**: Watch your surroundings, especially in places popular with foreigners. - **Check Updates**: Visit **AMERICA NEWS WORLD** for the latest news on global safety. These tips are easy to follow and can keep you out of harm’s way. Additionally, always check official travel advisories before planning your trip. ### Why Trust AMERICA NEWS WORLD?

Montana Shooting: Officials warned people to avoid the area of Anaconda. (Representational)
In a heartbreaking incident, a one-year-old boy named Shivansh Joshi lost his life in Uttarakhand, India, after being shuttled between five hospitals over 180 kilometers. His parents, desperate to save their child, faced alleged medical negligence, inadequate facilities, and delays in care. This tragedy has sparked widespread anger and calls for accountability. **AMERICA NEWS WORLD** brings you the full story of this devastating case, shedding light on the gaps in India’s healthcare system. On July 10, Shivansh’s mother noticed he was vomiting and couldn’t breastfeed due to severe dehydration. She rushed him to the public health center (PHC) in Chamoli’s Gwaldam. However, the PHC lacked a pediatrician and proper equipment. As a result, doctors sent the family to the community health center (CHC) in Baijnath, Bageshwar, 22 kilometers away. At the CHC, Shivansh received some treatment, but his condition worsened. Consequently, the staff referred him to the district hospital in Bageshwar, another 20 kilometers away. Dinesh Chandra Joshi, Shivansh’s father and an Army officer posted in Jammu and Kashmir, alleged that the doctor at the district hospital was distracted by his phone. “The nurses were joking and laughing,” he told NDTV. “No one checked my son properly during this emergency.” The hospital diagnosed Shivansh with blood flow issues in the brain but lacked a pediatric ICU. Therefore, they sent him to Almora Medical College, 68 kilometers away. The family faced another hurdle: an ambulance delay. Shivansh’s mother called the emergency 108 service at 7 p.m., but the vehicle arrived at 9:30 p.m. after Dinesh contacted the District Magistrate for help. “I was alone, pleading for help, but the staff didn’t care,” the mother said, her voice breaking. At Almora, the fourth hospital, Shivansh was treated but soon referred to Sushila Tiwari Hospital in Haldwani, Nainital. By July 12, doctors placed him on a ventilator. Sadly, on July 16, the boy passed away. “I protect 144 crore Indians as a soldier, but I couldn’t save my son,” Dinesh said, heartbroken. Uttarakhand’s Chief Minister, Pushkar Singh Dhami, called the incident “extremely painful.” He ordered a probe, promising strict action against those responsible. “Healthcare is our duty. No one will escape accountability,” he stated on X. The investigation aims to uncover why Shivansh faced such delays and inadequate care across multiple facilities. This tragedy highlights a deeper issue in India’s rural healthcare system. Many hospitals lack specialized staff and equipment, forcing families to travel long distances for treatment. For instance, the absence of a pediatrician at the Chamoli PHC set off a chain of referrals that cost precious time. Moreover, delays in emergency services, like the late ambulance, worsened the situation. To illustrate the scale of the problem, here’s a chart showing the distances Shivansh’s family traveled: This chart, optimized for both mobile and desktop viewing, shows the grueling journey the family endured. Each bar represents a leg of their 180-kilometer ordeal, highlighting the systemic challenges in accessing timely care. The case has ignited discussions on platforms like Quora and Reddit, where users express frustration over India’s healthcare gaps. Many point out that rural areas often lack basic facilities, forcing families to navigate a maze of referrals. For example, a Reddit user commented, “This isn’t just negligence; it’s a broken system.” Similarly, a Quora thread emphasized the need for better emergency services in remote areas. Shivansh’s story isn’t unique. A similar case reported by *The Indian Express* involved a 5-year-old boy in Agra who died due to negligence during a pilgrimage. Such incidents underline the urgent need for reform. To learn more about healthcare challenges, visit **[AMERICA NEWS WORLD](https://america112.com/)** for in-depth coverage. The public’s outrage is growing, with many demanding better training for medical staff and improved facilities. Dinesh Joshi asked a poignant question: “If a soldier faces court-martial for neglecting duty, why don’t doctors face similar consequences?” His words resonate with parents everywhere who fear losing their children to systemic failures.
