The East Wing of the White House has been demolished to clear space for a proposed $300m gilded ballroom, only days after the administration confirmed the project would proceed. The move has provoked widespread criticism from historians, preservationists and former officials, who accuse the government of disregarding legal and cultural safeguards. Satellite images taken on Friday revealed the eastern section of the historic building reduced to rubble.

Despite the…
The Delhi regional government has begun trialling a cloud‑seeding experiment in an attempt to induce artificial rain and reduce the city’s severe air pollution. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which took charge of the regional administration earlier this year, has long promoted cloud seeding as a potential measure to tackle the capital’s toxic air. The technique involves dispersing particles such as silver iodide into clouds using aircraft or drones. These particles act as nuclei around which water droplets can form, increasing the likelihood of rainfall. Unpredictable weather conditions had delayed the scheme for several months. However, following a sharp deterioration…

New York City’s political landscape was thrown into fresh turmoil on Thursday as Mayor Eric Adams announced he would endorse Andrew Cuomo in the city’s mayoral race, despite months of acrimony between the two men. Adams, who abandoned his own re-election bid last month following dismal polling numbers, revealed his decision in an interview with The New York Times. The move marks a dramatic reversal for the mayor, who only weeks earlier had branded Cuomo a “snake and a liar” and accused him of sidelining Black candidates throughout his political career. The contest to succeed Adams has so far been…
King Charles and Pope LeoKing Charles and Pope Leo prayed side by side in the Sistine Chapel on Thursday, marking the first joint act of worship between an English monarch and a Catholic pontiff since Henry VIII severed ties with Rome nearly five centuries ago.
