A major robbery at Paris’ world-renowned Louvre Museum occurred on Sunday morning, leaving authorities stunned at the speed and precision of the thieves. The heist took place around 9:30 a.m. local time while the museum was open to visitors. Investigators found a truck with a ladder near the museum’s second-floor balcony, suggesting the thieves broke in through a window. The robbery happened in the Apollo Room, home to valuable ornaments of the French royal family, including items used by King Louis XIV. Priceless jewelry was stolen, including Empress Eugénie’s crown, adorned with 1,354 diamonds and 56 emeralds, which was damaged during the theft. French authorities believe three to four individuals were involved, who fled on a motorcycle within seven minutes. The Louvre was closed for a day for investigation. President Emmanuel Macron condemned the attack, promising justice and recovery of the stolen treasures.

Cambodia has accused Thailand of playing “eerie, ghostly sounds” along border areas, calling it a form of psychological warfare. The Cambodian Human Rights Commission reported that loudspeaker broadcasts of ghostly wails and airplane engine noises are disturbing villagers’ sleep, causing anxiety, and creating physical discomfort. Former Prime Minister Hun Sen said the commission has lodged a complaint with UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk. Thailand has yet to comment. The tensions follow a ceasefire agreement mediated by Malaysia last July. Thailand, in turn, accused Cambodia of laying new landmines along the border, though Cambodia denied the claims, saying Thai soldiers were injured by old landmines from its civil war. The allegations have reignited cross-border disputes and brought the matter to international attention.

Pakistan has successfully launched its first hyperspectral satellite, H-1, from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China, calling it a “significant milestone” in the country’s space program. Hyperspectral satellites can detect subtle chemical and material changes on Earth’s surface, making them invaluable for monitoring crop quality, managing water resources, and assessing natural disaster damage. SUPARCO Chairman Muhammad Yousuf Khan stated that the satellite’s data will revolutionize agricultural productivity, enhance climate resilience, and optimize the management of vital natural resources. The launch reflects Pakistan’s growing space capabilities and its long-standing peaceful cooperation with China. This year alone, Pakistan has successfully deployed three satellites, with EO-1 and KS-1 already fully operational, signaling a strong push forward in its national space ambitions.

U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to India, threatening to impose massive tariffs on Indian goods if the country does not stop importing oil from Russia. According to Trump, Prime Minister Narendra Modi personally assured him that India would halt Russian oil purchases, but he warned that if India continued, it would face huge tariffs. Washington has been increasing pressure on countries maintaining trade with Russia, arguing that such commerce indirectly funds Moscow’s ongoing war in Ukraine. Tariffs on Indian goods have already been raised to 50 percent earlier this year, covering a broad range of products from textiles to pharmaceuticals. Trump has repeatedly stated that these tariffs will remain or increase if India does not comply. So far, the Modi government has not made any public statement on Trump’s remarks or clarified its stance on Russian oil imports.

Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami has strongly protested remarks made by National Citizens’ Party (NCP) Convener Nahid Islam, calling his recent Facebook post “vague and misleading.” In his post, Nahid Islam criticized Jamaat’s movement for proportional representation (PR), describing it as a “planned political deception” intended to derail genuine constitutional reform efforts following the July uprising. Responding to the criticism, Jamaat’s Assistant Secretary General and head of its media department, Ehsanul Mahbub (Jubair), said Nahid’s comments were “false, baseless, and regrettable.” He asserted that Jamaat had demonstrated its firm stance in both the Consensus Commission discussions and street movements to secure legal recognition for the July National Charter. Mahbub urged Nahid Islam to refrain from making such “misleading and immature” statements that could confuse the public. The exchange highlights growing tensions among political groups over the proposed PR system and broader reform agendas.

The government has announced that tourist visits to Saint Martin’s Island will resume on November 1 after a nine-month suspension aimed at protecting the island’s fragile ecosystem. However, Environment and Forest Adviser Syeda Rizwana Hasan clarified that a final decision on allowing tourists to stay overnight has not yet been made. Speaking to reporters at the Secretariat on Sunday (October 19), she said the issue will be settled after discussions with the Ministry of Tourism. The extended travel ban had severely impacted the island’s tourism-dependent economy, leaving ships idle and workers unemployed. Officials said the restrictions were part of a broader plan to safeguard the island’s biodiversity and transform Saint Martin’s into a sustainable, community-centered tourist destination that balances environmental protection with local livelihoods.

Speaking as the chief guest at a discussion titled “Future Strategy for the Upcoming National Election” organized by the Zia Parishad Natore District branch, Dulu said that during BNP’s tenure, the party established a corruption-free education system to create a proud, educated generation.

Dulu further alleged that the ruling party appointed loyalists to key educational posts, promoting corruption and favoritism. He pledged that if BNP returns to power, it will restore honesty in education and ensure fair opportunities for teachers and students alike.
