Bangladesh Seeks Extradition of Sheikh Hasina for War Crimes Amid Global Tension and Tragedies

Bangladesh pursues extradition of Sheikh Hasina for alleged war crimes.
Bangladesh is seeking the extradition of ousted leader Sheikh Hasina from India, accusing her of war crimes during her 15-year rule, following her escape amid mass protests.

In related economic news, global oil prices are forecasted to hover between $60 and $70 per barrel, driven by sluggish demand from China and an oversupply.

On the diplomatic front, Saudi and Russian foreign ministers met to strengthen ties and address shared concerns, with both nations emphasizing the importance of continued dialogue.

Meanwhile, the UN Human Rights Chief called for global action against Israel's occupation and the ongoing Gaza conflict, highlighting the urgent need to address the humanitarian crisis.

Tragically, in northern Nigeria, a fuel tanker explosion claimed 52 lives and dozens of cattle, illustrating the deadly consequences of poorly maintained roads and hazardous practices.

Lastly, on a more personal note, the UK Home Office rejected a visa application from an Afghan family seeking to reunite with their 13-year-old son, Ahmad, raising concerns about the separation of families during the Taliban evacuation.
