'Can't afford lost wages': India's voter roll revision is worrying migrant workers
NEW DELHI — A sense of anxiety grips Rangpuri Pahari, a slum in India's capital Delhi.The neighborhood houses thousands of migrant workers who have lived hand-to-mouth for decades, mostly employed in the unorganised sector as domestic staff, cooks, mechanics, car washers and construction labourers.Now they fear they'll have to make sudden — and costly — trips home to keep their names on India's electoral rolls.On 4 November, India began a major exercise to revise electoral rolls across 12 states and federally administered regions.Known as the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), it covers nearly 510 million voters — or more than half of the country's 970 million electorate.India's Election Commission (EC) says the aim of the exercise is to ensure that no...

LONDON — Two Russian warships were intercepted in the English Channel by the Royal Navy, the UK's Ministry of Defense (MoD) has said.In the latest incident involving Russia's ships entering waters around the UK, HMS Severn headed off the RFN Stoikiy, a corvette and Yelnya, a tanker, as they sailed west through the Dover Strait into the English Channel in the past fortnight.Last week, it emerged that the Russian spy ship Yantar was spotted off the coast of Scotland and it used lasers to disrupt RAF pilots tracking its movements.Defence Secretary John Healey branded the Yantar's move "deeply dangerous" and warned Russia and its president Vladimir Putin: "We see you.

Malakal Harbour, Palau's main port
Chinese land, US radar and ties to Taiwan: The geopolitics rattling a tiny Pacific nation
PALAU — The air above Palau's pristine waters smells of salt and breadfruit, and on calm mornings in Koror, Palau's commercial centre, the whirr of dive boat engines echoes across the bay.A few years ago, those boats were filled with tourists – many from China – drawn to Palau's lagoons and limestone caves. Hotels were full, restaurants bustling, and fishermen could barely keep up with demand. But that is no more.The boom – and the abrupt collapse – was no accident. Between 2015 and 2017, Chinese tourists made up around half of its visitors.
