'Simply not true': Dassault CEO rubbishes Pakistan's claim of downing Rafales
Eric Trappier, Chairman and CEO of Dassault Aviation, has categorically dismissed Pakistan's claims of shooting down three Indian Rafale jets during Operation Sindoor. In an interview with Challenges, a French magazine, Trappier affirmed that Dassault has received no official communication from the Indian Air Force (IAF) indicating any Rafale losses, firmly branding the Pakistani narrative as false. 'The reports of Indian Rafales being lost are not accurate,' Trappier stated. 'The Indians haven't communicated, so we don't know exactly what happened. What we already know is that what the Pakistanis are saying is inaccurate,' Trappier told the magazine. He further added, 'What Pakistan is claiming about downing three Rafales is simply not true.' He stressed that the outcome of modern air operations must be judged by mission objectives, not disinformation. 'When you operate combat aircraft, the goal isn't simply to avoid losses, it's to accomplish the mission,' he said, underlining that success in modern warfare is measured by strategic outcomes, not casualty counts. Drawing a historical parallel, he remarked, 'No one said the Allies lost World War II because they suffered troop losses.' 'We'll see whether there were any losses and whether the mission objectives were met. When the full truth emerges, some may be in for a surprise,' he added.

‘Dual nationality row': Newton Das to be struck off Bengal voter list soon
The process of removing 'Kakdwip voter' Newton Das from the electoral roll has commenced, confirmed sources in the office of the West Bengal Chief Electoral Officer on Sunday. The decision follows a probe into allegations linking Das, a registered voter in the Kakdwip Assembly constituency, to protests in Bangladesh as a voter there, raising questions about his nationality. A relative of Das also claimed that he has voter cards of both India and Bangladesh. Das, 32, has been at the centre of a political storm after images surfaced showing him participating in the student-led agitation in Dhaka in July 2024, which ultimately led to the downfall of the Sheikh Hasina government. These images depict Das wielding a stick and waving a flag during the protests, prompting the Opposition BJP in West Bengal to question how an individual actively involved in a political movement in Bangladesh could simultaneously hold voting rights in India. Electoral records indicate that Das has been a voter in Kakdwip, which falls under the Mathurapur Lok Sabha constituency, since 2014. He has reportedly claimed to have exercised his franchise in the 2016 Assembly elections. The CEO had previously directed the district electoral officer of the South 24 Parganas to investigate and report on Das's alleged dual nationality. This development comes as West Bengal prepares for high-stakes Assembly elections next year. Sweety Kumari reports from West Bengal for The Indian Express.

Trump's military parade in DC overshadowed by his giant toilet statue, netizens quip ‘The only throne fit for this King'
Donald Trump's Washington, DC military parade began under stormy skies as torrential rain poured down and swarms of protesters lined the streets. Yet, it was not the downpour or the tanks that stole the spotlight. Instead, it was a towering, eight-foot-tall statue of Trump perched on a golden toilet that became the day's most talked-about spectacle. Also Read: Melania Trump's nap moment during Donald Trump's $45 million birthday parade goes viral: Watch Eunist, a 50-year-old Maryland resident, brought a striking statue to the No Kings Day protest, drawing immediate attention from onlookers and media alike. The statue depicted Trump wearing a blue coat and red tie, perched on a toilet. It 'is the only throne fit for this King,' she remarked via the statue, summing up the mood of a demonstration aimed squarely at mocking the spectacle of the former president's birthday parade, as reported by the Irish Star. The statue reminded me of the infamous Trump statue perched on a golden toilet in 2019, wearing a red MAGA cap. Scheduled in nearly 2,000 locations across the country, the No Kings Day protests served as a widespread rebuke of the extravagant military display and its symbolic undertones. Protesters voiced concerns about the potential street damage caused by heavy military vehicles rolling through civilian areas, Eunist adding, 'We don't need dictators in America."

While it might appear that the US president was emulating the British monarch, the real inspiration came from French President Emmanuel Macron. Political commentator Rich Rubino said, 'I guess he really got this idea, supposedly, from Emmanuelle Macron, who was in France on Bastille Day,' as reported by The Irish Star.
