"These Are Not 2 People On Tinder Date": Expert Defends Dreamliner Pilots

Serious pilots in India who are closely watching the unfolding events linked to the investigation into the crash of Air India's Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner are upset about the whole situation due to a perceived slant towards blaming the pilots, a top aviation expert and a pilot himself told NDTV on Thursday. Captain Sam Thomas, who heads the Airline Pilots' Association of India (ALPA India), said two things are bothering serious experts who have been tracking the investigation - speculation, and alleged absence of any qualified expert in the report by the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB). "As far as speculation is concerned, we are okay with the media speculating. We believe speculation is a good part of investigative journalism. However, we object to pilots or so-called pilots or so-called experts who came on board and speculate," Mr Thomas told NDTV. "On day one, they said it's a bird hit. On day two, they said it's an overloaded airplane. O...

Users Question Authenticity Of Viral Post As Bride's Train Photo Goes Viral

A photo of a bride sitting on the floor of a train went viral after many social media users shared it on their profiles, criticising many factors behind this pathetic travel situation.

X influencer Potato used the image and wrote, "Dear parents, please don't marry your daughter to a man who cannot afford a decent lifestyle for himself and also your daughter. Sooner or later, an economic crisis will become the reason for their daily fights."

Another influencer, Lakshay Chaudhary, also shared the same image in his story and wrote, "Sex and marriage should be allowed according to individual ITR in India." He further said, "No income, no marriage."

Both the influencers received a variety of reactions from several users on social media. But things became more controversial when a social media user named Jitesh with the X handle @Chaotic_mind99 claimed that the woman in the red saree is her wife, and he blamed the Indian Railways and Railway Minister for this and wrote, "Thank you, Ashwini Vaishnaw ji; because of you, my wife is getting this world-class train facility today. I will always be indebted to you."

In response to Jitesh's post, the official Railways handle requested the PNR number multiple times to investigate the situation and take appropriate action. However, despite three reminders, Jitesh (@Chaotic_mind99) failed to provide the details. This silence led many social media users to question the authenticity of the post, with several claiming it to be misleading and lacking any credible evidence.

"He will not share anything because the aim is to spread propaganda," commented a user on Jitesh's post.

"What an irresponsible person you are; you can't reserve a seat in advance for yourself and your wife and are blaming the ministry for your own irresponsibility. Loser," wrote another user on Jitesh's post.

US Reopens Lake Michigan Airspace After Closure Over "National Defense"

US officials restricted the airspace over Lake Michigan on Sunday citing a potential new threat to national security but soon reopened the skies, as the United States and Canada respond to multiple air intrusions. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced "temporary flight restrictions" over one of the Great Lakes along the US-Canada border, designating it as "national defense airspace," one day after a similar closure over Montana led to the scrambling of US fighter jets. The Montana closure was ordered over a "radar anomaly," but no object was discovered. Similarly, the Lake Michigan restrictions were lifted shortly after they were announced, apparently with no threat detected. "The FAA briefly closed some airspace over Lake Michigan to support Department of Defense activities. The airspace has been reopened," the agency said in a statement to AFP. Sunday's action over Lake Michigan marked the latest move to address a series ...

Biden Orders US Military To Shoot Down Iranian Missiles Targeting Israel

President Joe Biden has ordered the US military to "aid Israel's defense" and shoot down any and all Iranian missiles targeting Israel, the White House said. President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee in next month's US presidential election, are both monitoring Iran's attack on Israel from the White House situation room, it said. "President Biden directed the US military to aid Israel's defense against Iranian attacks and shoot down missiles that are targeting Israel," the White House said in a statement. A call that Joe Biden had scheduled with rabbis today ahead of the Jewish high holiday season - which begins later this week with Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year - had been postponed to another day, a White House official said. The United States and other western allies also stepped in to help defend Israel against a combined Iranian missile and drone attack in April, which Tehran launched in retaliation for an ...
