In a remarkable display of international solidarity, India has dispatched a substantial aid package to Papua New Guinea following catastrophic landslides that have claimed approximately 2,000 lives. Triggered by relentless heavy rainfall, the landslides devastated entire communities, leaving thousands homeless. India’s swift response, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, includes medical teams, rescue personnel, and essential supplies, transported by the Indian Navy’s INS Airavat. This aid mission highlights the critical role of global cooperation in addressing humanitarian crises and supporting recovery efforts in times of dire need.
A devastating fire broke out early Tuesday morning in a residential building in Kuwait City, killing 49 foreign workers and injuring dozens more. The blaze, which started around 2:30 a.m. in the Hawally district, rapidly engulfed the multi-story building, trapping many inside. Most of the victims were migrant workers from South Asia and Africa, living in overcrowded and poorly maintained conditions.
Prime Minister Sheikh Ahmad Nawaf Al-Sabah visited the site and promised a thorough investigation. The fire has ignited widespread calls for better safety standards and labor reforms in Kuwait, highlighting the dire living conditions faced by many migrant workers in the region. The government has detained the building’s owner and management for questioning regarding potential negligence.
