During a recent press conference, Sunita Williams, the Indian-origin NASA astronaut who spent 286 days aboard the International Space Station, was asked how India looked from space. Without missing a beat, she responded, “India is amazing, just amazing,” while describing the stunning view of the Himalayas. Williams shared that each time they flew over the mountain range, the crew captured incredible images, with the land transitioning into vibrant colors. She also spoke about the mesmerizing network of lights visible across India at night, highlighting the bustling cities and the coastlines. When asked if she planned to visit India, Williams expressed her eagerness to collaborate with the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), saying, "I’d love to be a part of that and help them along."
A joint search and destroy operation was launched early Tuesday morning in Kathua's Panjtirthi area by the Indian Army’s Rising Star Corps, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and the CRPF, following intelligence reports of possible terrorist activity. This operation comes just days after a deadly encounter in which two terrorists and four policemen were killed. Authorities believe three Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorists are trapped near the Panjtirthi temple in the Billawar area. As the operation continues, security forces have intensified their efforts using aerial surveillance and sniffer dogs, with DIG Shiv Kumar Sharma reassuring the public that the mission will persist until all terrorists are neutralized.
