Morning news wrap: US-India trade deal 'not too distant'; country clears literacy exam with 80.9%; and more
Tuesday, 3 June 2025 The US commerce secretary anticipates a US-India trade deal soon, boosted by the strong relationship between President Trump and PM Modi. A 6.2-magnitude earthquake struck near the Greece-Turkey border, while in Pakistan, a political figure defended an individual linked to a terror attack. India's literacy rate is at 80.9%, and Russia is committed to delivering S-400 units by 2026.

Former President Trump has issued a stark warning to Russia: agree to a Ukraine ceasefire within 10 days or face sweeping new sanctions. He hinted at harsh secondary sanctions and tariffs targeting Russia’s already struggling economy. Despite the threat, Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov mocked the move, claiming Moscow isn’t worried. Analysts say sanctions could slash Russia’s GDP by another 3–5% annually and hit energy exports hard. As the U.S. raises pressure, the question remains—will Putin yield, or is Trump making empty threats?

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has launched a scathing attack on the U.S President Donald Trump and Western powers, accusing them of using the nuclear issue as a false pretext to wage a deeper war against Iran’s religion, culture, and scientific progress. In his most explosive statement yet, Khamenei declared, “This isn’t about nuclear enrichment or human rights — it’s about crushing our faith and silencing our knowledge.”

Turkey is battling catastrophic wildfires amid deadly heat waves and alleged human negligence. With 17 lives lost — including volunteer firefighters — and over 100 suspects facing prosecution, questions mount over the government's preparedness and accountability. Thousands have been forced to evacuate as blazes rage across Turkey, Bulgaria, and Albania. Is this a natural disaster, or a man-made crisis spiraling out of control?

Israel faces mounting global condemnation over its military campaign in Gaza, accused of using starvation tactics and blocking aid. Despite backlash, Prime Minister Netanyahu has doubled down, vowing to continue operations until Hamas is fully eliminated. With over 20,000 Hamas fighters reportedly still active and Israeli casualties rising, the war grinds on. Europe and human rights groups have urged Israel and the U.S. to halt the blockade, but Netanyahu, speaking from Ramon Air Base, insists on seeing through what he calls Israel's “war goals.” Gaza’s humanitarian crisis deepens.

Hundreds of Israeli cruise passengers aboard the Mano Maritime–operated Crown Iris found themselves unable to disembark at the Greek island of Syros after a pro-Hamas, pro–Palestinian protest blocked the port. Local demonstrators—estimated at around 150–200—raised Palestinian flags, chanted slogans, and formed a human barrier, prompting Greek authorities and the cruise line to halt disembarkation out of concern for passenger safety.

They travel faster than sound. Some even at Mach 20. They can strike any point on the planet within minutes — and no known defence system can stop them.
In this explosive breakdown, we take you inside the world’s fastest and most powerful missiles — Russia’s Avangard and Sarmat, China’s DF-41, the US Trident II D5 and Minuteman III — and reveal India’s imminent entry into the hypersonic elite.
From nuclear payloads to manoeuvrability and range, these weapons define modern deterrence and domination. And with India’s DRDO now testing indigenous hypersonic tech, the global arms race just got a new player.

Russia’s highly-touted S-400 air defense system is under intense scrutiny after a massive Ukrainian drone strike reportedly destroyed critical assets, including Russian bombers. On June 1, 2025, over 117 low-flying drones bypassed radar detection and targeted key military sites. Despite its reputation, the S-400 struggled to intercept these cheap, agile UAVs. Ukraine’s coordinated swarm attacks, use of jammers, decoys, and anti-radar missiles highlight growing vulnerabilities in legacy defense systems like the S-400—designed for jets and missiles, not modern drone warfare.
