Bangladesh protests continue over civil service hiring rules; 39 dead, gatherings banned in Dhaka
Bangladeshi students set fire to the country's state broadcaster on Thursday, a day after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina appeared on the network seeking to calm escalating clashes that have killed at least 39 people. Hundreds of protesters demanding reform of civil service hiring rules fought back and overwhelmed riot police who had fired at them with rubber bullets. The incensed crowd chased the retreating officers to BTV's headquarters in the capital Dhaka, then set ablaze the network's reception building and dozens of vehicles parked outside. Hasina's government has ordered schools and universities to close indefinitely as police step up efforts to bring the country's deteriorating law and order situation under control.

Gaza War: Iranian Samad-3 drone hits Israel's Tel Aviv, kills 1; Yemen's Houthis claim responsibility
A long-range Iranian-made drone hit the centre of Tel Aviv in the early hours of Friday in an attack claimed by the Yemen-based Houthi militia that killed one man and wounded four others, the Israeli military and emergency services said. The explosion, which footage shared on social media suggested came from the sea and did not trigger air raid alarms, occurred hours after the Israeli military confirmed it had killed a senior commander of the Iran-backed Hezbollah militia in southern Lebanon. Chief spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said the military assessed that the drone, which hit a building near the beachfront close to U.S. Embassy premises in Tel Aviv, was an upgraded Iranian-made Samad-3 model. "Our estimation is that it arrived from Yemen to Tel Aviv," he told a press briefing.

One can aspire to become Devta, but there’re always uncertainties: RSS chief
“(Only) after achieving human qualities, man aspires to become a superman with supernatural powers and then attain the status of ‘devta’ and ‘bhagwan’. He then aspires for vishwaroop (the supreme power). What is beyond that is certain,” he said, adding that development of the inner and outer self is a never-ending process. Speaking about the essence of Sanatan Dharma, he said, “Sanatan Sanskriti and Dharma did not come from royal palaces but from ashrams and forests. With changing times, our clothes may change, but our nature will never.”

Muse and musings of an artist
The most abstract element an artist has probably is a line, which is very minimal. Artists always have some intentions behind their creations interconnected with what they explore and their relationship to the idea of art itself. No, it’s not a threat to artists, but it is a challenge that affects all of us. As an artist, one may need to find unique ways to navigate these challenges. However, I’m not an artist who explores alternatives.
