Musiala Suffers Horror Injury in Bayern's Loss to PSG

BAYERN Munich coach Vincent Kompany expressed his frustration after playmaker Jamal Musiala suffered a horror injury at the Club World Cup against Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday. The 22-year-old Germany international fell and appeared to suffer a severe ankle injury after an innocuous collision in play with PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma during the French side's 2-0 quarter-final victory in Atlanta. Musiala was taken off on a stretcher and replaced by Serge Gnabry for the second half. 'I've rarely been so angry at half-time, not against my players,' Kompany told reporters. 'There are many things in life that are much more important than this, but in the end, for these guys, it's their life. 'Someone like Jamal lives for this and he (recently) came back from a setback. And then it happens in the way it happens and you feel powerless.' Kompany said he wanted his Bayern side to try and find motivation in the injury against the European champions. 'You try and get strength out of it because you want to do it for Jamal,' explained the Belgian coach. 'When I'm sat here next to you now, the thing that gets my blood still boiling at the moment, it's not the result. 'I understand this is football, but it's the fact that it happened to someone that, for one, enjoys the game so much, but also is very important for us. 'It didn't look good... it looks like an ankle injury of some type, but I'm not going to make a diagnosis here.' PSG players also showed support for the youngster -- one of football's most promising young talents. 'A shout-out to Jamal Musiala, who suffered a serious injury, it's something you do not want to see on the field,' PSG defender Marquinhos told DAZN. 'It's important we talk about Jamal Musiala,' said Achraf Hakimi. 'I want to give my support to him. We hope to see him back on the pitch soon.'

Stringent framework finalised to ensure drones don't have Chinese parts

NEW DELHI: The Indian defence establishment has finalised a comprehensive stringent framework to ensure that drones being acquired from domestic private sector companies do not have Chinese components and electronics in them. The mechanism, with the requisite technical verification and evaluation methodologies, will be implemented in a couple of months to further strengthen the level of checks already put in place, which include more comprehensive certifications to be provided by drone-manufacturers. "The framework has been completed and is under approval. Once approved, thorough testing will be conducted to ensure our equipment is free from any security vulnerabilities," additional director general of the Army Design Bureau Major General C S Mann said. This has become imperative as the armed forces began acquiring a large number of drones amid the military confrontation with China over the last few years. Operation Sindoor against Pakistan, which saw intense cross-border hostilities from May 7 to 10, has further underlined the need for such a mechanism.

Govt eyes $200m from tuna exports

Listen to article Pakistan is poised to gain $200 million from the export of tuna fish in the coming years due to an overhaul of the industry. Federal Minister for Maritime Affairs, Muhammad Junaid Anwar Chaudhry, has announced that Pakistan's tuna sector is set for a $200 million boost following global quota allocations and regulatory reforms. For the first time, Pakistan has secured a tuna fishing quota of 25,000 metric tonnes from the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC), comprising 15,000 tonnes of Yellowfin Tuna and 10,000 tonnes of Skipjack Tuna, according to an official press release. These quotas are aligned with climate-conscious fisheries management principles aimed at protecting marine biodiversity and reducing pressure on ocean ecosystems. "This is a landmark achievement that promises significant foreign exchange earnings," the minister said. "With international prices for these tuna species ranging between $5 and $7 per kilogram, and potentially higher with value-added processing, the economic potential is enormous." Calling the development "a turning point for Pakistan's tuna sector," Chaudhry noted that although the country currently catches more than 45,000 metric tonnes of tuna each year, much of this high-value resource has been escaping the formal economy due to unregulated operations. To capture the full economic value of the resource, the minister highlighted that "a series of reforms have been launched," including the introduction of the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Policy, aimed at unifying fragmented regulatory frameworks while promoting environmentally sound and revenue-generating fishing techniques. "This policy framework supports Pakistan's obligations under international climate and marine conservation agreements," the federal minister stated. He also announced a major milestone for Pakistan, noting that for the first time in the 28-year history of the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC), a senior official from Pakistan's Ministry of Maritime Affairs has been elected as Chair of its Standing Committee on Administration and Finance, a significant step in strengthening Pakistan's role in global tuna governance. The Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC) is an intergovernmental body comprising 30-member countries, established under the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO). Its mandate is to manage tuna and related species in the Indian Ocean by promoting sustainable use through scientific research, quota distribution, and regulatory frameworks. As part of broader adaptation efforts, the minister said destructive fishing methods such as gillnetting and trawling are being phased out, replaced with more selective and environmentally friendly longlining techniques. "This transition reduces bycatch and supports ocean health in the face of climate-driven stressors such as warming waters and changing migration patterns," he added. The FAO has backed this initiative by providing 10 longline fishing kits free of charge for demonstration purposes to local fishing communities. This transition is expected to increase product value from an average of $2 to $8 per kilogram, the minister noted. He stated that further reforms encompassed the revision of certification and testing fees for seafood exports, resulting in a revenue increase from Rs48 million to Rs250 million. Additionally, infrastructure initiatives have been launched, including the revitalisation of Korangi Fisheries Harbour with the construction of a new auction hall and floating jetty, aimed at enhancing tuna landings and boosting exports, particularly to the European Union. The minister stated that Pakistan's tuna sector now stands at the threshold of a major economic shift. With quotas secured, regulatory reforms underway, and international cooperation growing, the country is poised to become a key player in the global tuna trade, ushering in a new era of sustainable growth and foreign exchange generation for the fisheries sector.
