First American pope: The new pope has been revealed as Robert Prevost of the US, the first American pontiff in history. He’ll be known as Pope Leo XIV. This comes after white smoke billowed above the Sistine Chapel, the signal that cardinals had selected a new pontiff on the second day of the conclave.

I've also been quite busy and although I'm at 1000 kms away from the border, I'm too much concerned about the whole situation of escalating this whole conflict into a full fledged war.
Pakistan fired 100s of missiles and 100s of drones in the evening, though none of them were able to hit the ground. Now India's restrained has broken and Indian army is hitting Pakistan with all its force. It's all happening here.
