Caitlyn Jenner trapped in Tel Aviv amid Iran's retaliatory strikes on Isreal, drinks wine in bomb shelter
Caitlyn Jenner, visiting for the Tel Aviv Pride Parade, found herself amid escalating tensions in Israel after the event was cancelled due to security concerns following Iran's missile attacks. She was later photographed sipping wine in a bomb shelter alongside an Israeli influencer. Also read: UK's Starmer, President Donald Trump call for diplomacy talks amid Iran-Israel conflict escalation Caitlyn Jenner took to X, previously known as Twitter, to reassure followers about her safety amid the tense situation in Israel. She shared a photo on social media, seemingly from her hotel, showing missiles in the sky and plumes of smoke rising from below, giving a glimpse into the intense situation unfolding around her. Sharing the image, she wrote, ''Quiet' night in Tel Aviv. Pray for us all. We will prevail. I am happy to stand with Israel today, now more than ever'. Caitlyn later updated her followers that she was taking shelter amid the escalating situation. She wrote, 'We are back in the shelters in Tel Aviv. This looks like it is the third wave of attack from Iran'. She was also photographed drinking a glass of wine in a bomb shelter with an Israeli influencer. The image surfaced on X from Regev Gur's handle and shows Caitlyn raising her glass of wine to pose for the selfie. Caitlyn also spoke to a local TV channel, according to The Mirror. The former Olympian mentioned that she is keeping in contact with her loved ones back in California, including her daughter Kylie Jenner. Caitlyn said, "I spoke with my daughter Kylie, and she urged me to stay safe. I reassured her'. She emphasised, "Don't worry, I'll keep myself safe, and they'll take care of me." Tel Aviv has been on alert after Iran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles against Israel late on Friday amid escalating conflict between the two countries. The attack came as a retaliation against Israel's strikes earlier in the day, blasting Iran's huge underground nuclear site at Natanz and wiping out its top military commanders. Tensions between Israel, the US and Iran have escalated in recent weeks, amid negotiations over the Iran nuclear deal, which is aimed at preventing the country from developing nuclear weapons.

Good Times and Bad
Scrolling on my phone in between meetings, I saw horrifying images of an Airbus flight, barely taking off and bursting into flames over the horizon. I have stopped getting easily panicked, as most pictures on the net are AI-generated. I often wonder what types of sadists generate horrifying pictures just to garner eyeballs! Unluckily this Air India tragedy was true. Of course, the death of Karisma Kapoor's ex husband also took prominence on the news-ticker display! But in a star-crazed country like ours, this is 'understandable'. Heart-wrenching pictures of families and friends searching for their loved ones in morgues and hospitals have flooded our senses. Tragedies by their nature are sad, but avoidable and senseless ones are pathetic. I must admit till I got this news yesterday, I was a happy bunny. I was stepping out after a long while and was happy to attend some niche and different events at places I am comfortable in. It started off with our very exclusive (by membership only) Bangalore Wine Club soiree at my favourite restaurant, Le Cirque at the Leela Palace. It was great meeting up with old friends and enjoying the superlative food and wine in its precincts. Sometimes some people whisper that I may be a wee bit 'toffee-nosed' but, I am unapologetic about liking the finer things in life and I know I have worked my derriere off for these privileges! I was thrilled to be invited to a rendezvous, at the beautiful Taj West End to launch celebrity nutritionist, Rujuta Diwekar's latest book, The Commonsense Diet. The hall was packed with our local celebrities and socialites alike, keen to hear her in conversation with Chiki Sarkar. The guests were eagerly waiting to engage with her in conversation and pop the magic question; 'How to be buff without being too tough?' The discussion was insightful, funny and informative. What followed was a scrumptious dinner hosted by the hotel which would definitely not aspire to make any of us who partook in the feast into a 'size-zero', like Kareena Kapoor was when she followed Rujuta's diet!
