Turkiye and Britain sign preliminary deal for Eurofighter Typhoon jets
Last Updated: Ankara (Turkiye), Jul 23 (AP) Turkiye and Britain on Wednesday signed a preliminary agreement for the sale of Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets to Turkiye, a significant step in Ankara's efforts to modernise its air fleet. Turkish Defence Minister Yasar Guler and his British counterpart, John Healey, inked a memorandum of understanding during a defence industry fair in Istanbul, Turkiye's Ministry of National Defence said. NATO member Turkiye has long aimed to buy 40 Eurofighter jets, which are built by a consortium of British, German and Italian companies. Germany reportedly initially opposed the sale but later reversed its position. Britain led negotiations on behalf of the consortium. A Turkish defence ministry statement said the memorandum takes the two countries 'one step closer to a full agreement on the Typhoon." 'Both Ministers welcome signature as a positive step towards bringing Turkiye into the Typhoon club and share a mutual ambition to conclude the necessary arrangements as soon as possible," it added. Turkish officials have said that they are still negotiating over pricing and technical terms, saying that they have received an initial offer and expect to submit a counter-proposal. Turkiye is also developing a domestic fifth-generation fighter jet, the KAAN, which is slated to be operational in 2028.

Tanushree Dutta Alleges Threat To Her Life Like Sushant Singh Rajput: 'Maids Planted To Spy'
Last Updated: Tanushree Dutta claims her life is in danger like Sushant Singh Rajput's, alleges Bollywood mafia harassment. Tanushree Dutta has once again sparked concern online after an emotional video of her surfaced on social media. In the clip, the actress is seen breaking down in tears as she alleges that she is being 'harassed". The video, which quickly went viral, left many fans shocked and concerned for her well-being. And now, speaking to News18 exclusively, she made a series of serious allegations, claiming she is being harassed and is in danger. Drawing parallels with the late Sushant Singh Rajput, who was found dead in his Mumbai home in 2020, the actress alleged that there is a powerful force within Bollywood working against her. 'Like Sushant Singh Rajput, there is an attempt to kill me too," she said, referring to the actor's untimely death in 2020, which led to intense public outcry and theories linking it to the so-called 'Bollywood mafia'. In a new video message, Tanushree directly appealed to the authorities: 'I request the government to provide me with security." She said she believes there is a powerful nexus within the industry working against her. 'The Bollywood mafia gang is huge, and like Sushant, my life is also in danger." Tanushree, who was one of the first prominent names to speak up during India's MeToo movement in 2018, connected her current ordeal to that moment. 'Since I raised my voice against Nana Patekar for the incident that happened with me during the MeToo movement, suspicious activities have started around me." According to her, the harassment hasn't stopped. 'I am being followed constantly. I am being harassed." She also alleged that her home was not safe either. 'There was spying done in my house, and a house help was planted for that purpose. I will file a complaint at the police station tomorrow regarding these incidents." Tanushree also made it clear that this should be treated as a fresh case, not linked to her previous complaints. 'I hope and request the police to not judge this case by my previous ones, and look at it with a new perspective so I can get justice. I do not want to reopen my previous case." Late Tuesday night, Tanushree shared the video on her official Instagram account, claiming that the harassment was coming from her own family. In the visibly emotional footage, she appeared distressed and spoke about possibly taking legal steps against her relatives.
