 In a striking admission, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif confirmed that India’s BrahMos missile strikes, carried out under Operation Sindoor, hit several targets across Pakistan before Islamabad’s military could respond.

A few years ago, a headline claiming the United States had imposed tariffs as high as 3,521% on solar panels from Southeast Asia might have seemed like exaggerated satire. Today, it barely stands out amid an unrelenting wave of policy shifts and dramatic moves that have marked Donald Trump’s second term in office.
