FBI/Handout via REUTERSAl Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, who was killed in a CIA drone strike in Afghanistan over the weekend according to US officials, appears in an undated FBI Most Wanted poster. Officials said the missiles killed al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri while he stood on a balcony at his home in downtown Kabul, Afghanistan, over the weekend in the biggest blow to the militants since Osama bin Laden was killed in 2011. A senior administration official told reporters two Hellfire missiles were fired from an unmanned aerial vehicle at Zawahiri. Hellfire missiles, mostly made by Lockheed Martin are precision guided munitions for air-to-ground strikes that normally cause significant damage, taking down whole buildings and killing or severely injuring anyone nearby. A Pentagon spokeswoman referred a query on the R9X missiles to US Special Operations Command, which would be the prime purchaser of the missile.

REUTERS/Daniel BecerrilThe Mexican resident identified with contracting A(H5N2) bird flu in Mexico died due to chronic diseases and not the virus, Mexico's health ministry said in a statement on Friday. Earlier this week, the World Health Organisation said it had confirmed the first laboratory-confirmed human case of infection with A(H5N2) avian influenza in Mexico. "The diseases were long-term and caused conditions that led to the failure of several organs," the ministry said, citing specialists. The 59-year-old man identified with bird flu suffered from a chronic kidney disease, diabetes and arterial hypertension over the past 14 years, according to the statement. The ministry added that there is no evidence of person-to-person transmission of the A(H5N2) virus stemming from the case.

Muneem explained, “When such amnesty is given, it’s often perceived as a way to convert black money into white. Muneem said that black money typically does not benefit the national economy and is often spent abroad. In the fiscal year 2020-2021, the government had previously allowed the legalisation of undisclosed income with a 10 per cent tax. However, the new proposal reinstates this opportunity without the prior conditions, aiming to correct errors in income tax returns and increase economic activity in the private sector. “In this regard, I propose to introduce a section on tax incentives in the Income Tax Act, allowing taxpayers to rectify errors in their income tax returns and channel more money into the mainstream economy,” he added.

Modi's comments came after he met Murmu and accepted her invitation to head the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) coalition government and run the world's most populous nation for the next five years. "It is my good fortune that all of you from NDA have chosen me to lead," Modi said earlier on Friday after NDA lawmakers voted for him to head their coalition. "No alliance has ever been as successful as the NDA," he said, after lawmakers and senior leaders thumped tables and applauded, with some standing and chanting "Modi, Modi!" The new government would, among others, focus on raising savings of the middle class and improve the quality of their lives as the "middle class is the driving force of the country", Modi added. The coalition negotiations are a throwback to an era before 2014, when Modi swept to power with an outright majority for his BJP.
