South Korea claimed that Chinese and Russian fighter jets entered its air defense zone (AI picture, for reference only)
South Korea deployed fighter jets on Saturday after more than 10 Chinese and Russian military aircraft entered its air defense identification zone (ADIZ), Seoul said, prompting the military to take precautionary measures amid rising regional tensions.Agence France-Presse quoted the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Seoul as saying: “The South Korean military detected Chinese and Russian aircraft before they entered the area and deployed air force fighter jets to deal with any emergencies.”So far, neither China nor Russia has commented on the matter.The latest development follows a similar incident in December 2025, when nine Chinese and Russian military aircraft entered South Korea’s Air Defense Identification Zone, sparking strong protests from South Korea and Japan. Following the incident, South Korea’s Defense Ministry lodged a formal protest with Beijing and Moscow, while Japan expressed “grave concerns” about its impact on regional security. China and Russia later said the flights were part of joint strategic air patrols over the East China Sea and the Western Pacific. Saturday’s operation comes against the backdrop of ongoing military cooperation between Beijing and Moscow, which have conducted numerous joint air and sea patrols in the region in recent years.

The Contra Costa County Fire Department noted that they are working with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection to respond to the situation. “CONFIR and CALFIRE in the Unified Command are ongoing at the time of the second vegetation fire alarm in Antioch. Current area is 30 acres,” they shared.
The fires began with a “slow to moderate spread” and required a second-alarm response, according to a website that tracks wildfire outbreaks across the country. Later updates from duty officer The fire “has increased in intensity and fire crews have been deployed on Deer Hill Lane to protect the structure,” the report said.
The official cause of the fire is unknown and no injuries were reported.

Another photo was shared on X, which was also shared on WatchDuty. This image was taken from the Mt. Diablo North camera.
“The Deer Fire south of Antioch has no air strikes, is estimated at 15 acres, has two alarms and Cal Fire,” wrote the person who shared the image.
Many people also reacted to news of the fire. “Isn’t this the same place that burned down a few years ago?” one of them asked. Another added: “Someone was setting off fireworks at Dozier Libby! I was outside yesterday afternoon with my daughter (she was practicing reversing in a straight line in front of the school) and then as we were getting ready to go home, at the roadblock where you have to turn left, we found the remains of a box of fireworks and another one standing next to the box!”.
One person shared a photo of the fire as seen from their home.
One concerned parent added: “The scary thing is that my daughter was not in Prewett and Hillcrest and could see the fires.” The flames were reportedly seen in Brentwood, about eight to 10 miles from Antioch.
Top politicians say German army conscription could start in mid-2027
Germany could reintroduce compulsory military service in mid-2027 if voluntary conscription fails to meet ambitious troop growth targets as the country faces growing threats from Russia and an unpredictable United States, a senior lawmaker has warned.The government launched a new voluntary military service model in November, making registration mandatory for 18-year-old males. However, from January to May, the program recruited only 530 new staff despite reaching approximately 300,000 young people.Thomas Lowekamp, chairman of the German parliament’s defense committee, said that if Germany cannot achieve its goals through a voluntary system, “we will have to return to conscription.” “We have until July 31 next year to make a decision.”
Germany has pledged to increase its military strength to at least 260,000 by 2035 from the current 185,000. A mandatory questionnaire asking men aged 18 and over to provide information about their willingness to serve has been sent out to potential recruits.Compulsory medical examinations for 18-year-old males are also expected to begin by mid-2027.Loewekamp, chairman of the German parliament’s defense committee, said he still had “serious doubts” that voluntary recruitment alone could achieve the goal. “My biggest concern is the growth in the number of career soldiers and contract soldiers because they are the ones who fly fighter jets, fly ships, operate tanks and operate Patriot air defense systems,” he said.
The debate exposed a clear generational divide. A recent survey by the European Council on Foreign Relations found net opposition to compulsory military service among 18- to 29-year-olds at 46 percent, while every older age group expressed overall support.Bella Breitner, a youth activist and spokesperson for the School Strikes Against Conscription campaign, said the government’s military expansion plans were fueling fears among Germany’s young people that the country was moving toward deeper militarization.“We decided this was not something we were interested in,” Breitner said, adding that the group had organized three days of strikes that had attracted about 50,000 people each day.
Safety issues spark debate
Lowekamp said Germany must urgently rearm independently of the United States, partly because of Trump’s plans to reduce troop presence in Europe, but also because Washington cannot reliably supply European troops amid recurring international crises.He said Europe must develop its military capabilities based on actual needs rather than industrial interests.European governments are facing growing pressure to build up their military and increase defense spending amid wars in Russia and Ukraine and uncertainty about the future of U.S. security in Europe.Germany suspended compulsory military service in 2011, but Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and renewed doubts about Washington’s role in European security have put the issue back on the political agenda.

Former Russian defense minister and close ally of Putin dies at 73
Sergei Ivanov, Russia’s former defense minister and a long-time ally of President Vladimir Putin who was once considered a potential successor to the Russian leader, has died at the age of 73.The Kremlin did not provide a cause of death. Exile news outlet Meduza reported that there were rumors that Ivanov suffered from a serious long-term illness. Putin expressed his “deep condolences” to Ivanov’s friends and relatives in a brief statement posted on the Kremlin website.Ivanov and Putin first met in the 1970s, when both served in the KGB’s Leningrad Bureau. Putin joined the St. Petersburg mayor’s office in the 1990s and moved into local politics, while Ivanov stayed in the intelligence service and rose to become a senior official in the foreign intelligence service.The two men reunited in the late 1990s as Putin rose to prominence in the federal government. Putin appointed Ivanov as deputy to Russia’s FSB security service in 1998 and later as secretary of Russia’s Security Council after becoming prime minister in 1999.
Ivanov served as defense minister from 2001 to 2007 and oversaw the Second Chechen War, which crushed separatist attempts in the region.In 2008, when Putin decided to resign due to term limits and become prime minister, Ivanov was widely regarded as his most likely successor.However, Putin chose another long-time aide, Dmitry Medvedev, as his replacement until he regained the presidency in 2012. Some observers believe Putin abandoned Ivanov’s candidacy because he considered him too ambitious and feared he would try to retain the presidency.Ivanov remained with Putin as deputy prime minister from 2007 to 2011 and then as Kremlin chief of staff from 2011 to 2016, playing an important role in overseeing the presidential administration.In 2016, Ivanov was appointed presidential envoy for environmental protection, ecology and transportation, a job that has no political influence and is widely regarded as emeritus. Putin relieved him of his duties in February, when he was 73, less than a week before the standard mandatory retirement age for civil servants.Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Ivanov personally asked the president to sack him.Ivanov, like other senior Russian officials, is subject to U.S. and European Union sanctions over Moscow’s military operations in Ukraine.Although he no longer serves as the presidential special representative, he still retains his position as one of the 13 permanent members of Russia’s Security Council. He also served as honorary chairman of the VTB United League Basketball Organization.Ivanov holds the rank of retired general.
The Juab County Sheriff’s Office has Already ordered Evacuate Silver City, Eureka and Mammoth immediately, Utah Saturday, June 27th. This happened when Maple Peak and Cherry Fire merged. At the time of writing, Watchduty reports fire The area burned was 12,316 acres.

Horrifying video of the fire has emerged despite reports that evacuation orders remain in effect. Tooele County.
“Multiple wildfires broke out in central Utah on Friday night, with the Maple Peak Fire merging with the Cherry Fire to total 12,000-15,000 acres and now known as the Cherry Fire. Here’s video of the evacuation from Love Green,” an independent reporter wrote.
They added: “According to officials, heavy fire activity is visible on U.S. Highway 6 in Juab County, with crews battling multiple fires, including the Iron Fire near Eureka, the Highway 36 Fire near Tintic Junction, the Maple Peak Fire west of the U.S. 6 Rest Area, and the Cherry Fire in the Weiss and Cherry Creek areas. With the Maple Peak Fire As the fire spread, officials ordered evacuations around the Vernon Reservoir and Love Green. Tooele County deputies and search and rescue personnel assisted in the evacuation, and displaced residents were directed to a shelter at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Vernon.”
KUTV’s local reporters also shared maps and visuals of the affected areas, writing: “Due to the rapidly spreading Cherry Fire and Iron Fire threatening the City of Eureka, Mammoth City and Silver City, mandatory evacuations are currently ordered in the area. Officials urge everyone to leave immediately if you are in an evacuation zone. The Maple Peak Fire has also merged with the Cherry Fire, creating a larger, more dangerous wildfire.”
“Fires are burning across the state today, and Utah County has now declared a state of emergency, saying wildfires are ‘ravaging our state.’ It’s shaping up to be one of the most dangerous fire weather conditions in Utah in years. Extreme winds, single-digit humidity and dry fuels are allowing multiple fires to spread quickly in just a few hours,” they added.
The reporter further said, “If you live near these fires, please remain vigilant, there are many ways to receive emergency alerts, and be prepared to leave if officials ask you to leave.”
Cherry Fire: Horror video from Juab County
A video showed a large amount of smoke rising into the sky. The person recording the video can be heard saying they have been evacuated and calling the current fire a “monster”.
Camera pictures showed fires on both sides of the road.
“SR-36 is closed from Mile Marker 1 to Mile Marker 20. Please stay away from the area and do not attempt to go around the closed roads. Firefighters will need to open every inch of the road to move engines, bulldozers, water trucks and emergency equipment,” they wrote.
Polygamist sect leader Samuel Bateman convicted on three counts of child abuse
A polygamist sect leader who was sentenced to 50 years in prison for child sex crimes was found guilty Friday of state child abuse charges in connection with three young girls found in a trailer he was dragging across Arizona.Authorities were alerted to the trailer in August 2022 after someone noticed small fingers reaching through a crack in the door. Police stopped Samuel Bateman’s vehicle near Flagstaff and found three girls, ages 11 to 14, in an enclosed space with a couch, camping chairs and a makeshift toilet.In the federal case, Bateman was convicted of forcing a girl as young as 9 to perform sex acts and conspiring to kidnap a child in state care. His crimes are the subject of a Netflix documentary series.Bateman previously claimed to have more than 20 “spiritual wives,” including 10 minors. In his own defense, he told jurors he would never hurt someone he loved. He admitted he knew the girls had spent hours in a hot trailer with poor ventilation, but downplayed the severity.“I just believe in myself as a driver,” Bateman said. “Every time we jump in that car, I pray to God to bless me.”He claimed he believed the girls had left the trailer when the car was parked, and when police pulled him over he was “very shocked” to find them still inside.Prosecutor Eric Ruchensky told the jury: “It’s common sense not to carry people in a trailer designed for freight on a hot day without ventilation,” prosecutor Eric Ruchensky told the jury.Bateman acted as his own attorney in the state trial, although the judge barred any mention of his federal conviction. He made the point himself multiple times, prompting a judge to throw out the remarks.The jury took about 40 minutes to convict Bateman on all three counts of child abuse. Each was sentenced to a mandatory prison term of four to eight years. A sentencing hearing is scheduled for August 25.
Bateman, a self-proclaimed prophet, traveled across several Western states to establish branches of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a polygamous group historically based in the border towns of Colorado City and Hildale, Arizona and Utah.He was a trusted follower of former sect leader Warren Jeffs, who is currently serving a life sentence in Texas for child sex abuse.Mainline Mormonism abandoned polygamy in 1890, and it remains strictly prohibited today.The polygamous sect’s control over border towns has been greatly weakened. A 2017 court order excluded the church from local governance, and the communities fell out of court supervision last summer, nearly two years ahead of schedule. Today, members of the practicing sect constitute only a minority in the area.
There’s a sound that accompanies growth in many Indian kitchens – the sound of silpata crushing coconut, chillies and spices into a coarse mixture. Modern mixer grinders long ago replaced this ritual, but they also replaced the texture that came with it, turning almost everything into a smooth paste.

Atomberg believes its new Zenova Mixer Grinder can restore some of the texture. The company claims its coarse mode can recreate the consistency of stone-ground chutney while offering the convenience of a modern mixer grinder. It was enough to make me curious and skeptical. I took the time to test the Zenova’s performance, rough mode, build quality, and day-to-day usability to see if these claims hold up in a real kitchen.
what’s in the box
The Atomberg Zenova mixer grinder comes with a compact base and four stainless steel jars – a 1.5L liquidizer jar, a 1L multi-purpose jar, a 0.5L chutney and spice jar and a 0.5L chopper jar. It’s available in black, burgundy, pearl white, and several finishes with brass or copper trim, though the color doesn’t affect anything but its appearance.
One design choice worth noting: There are no vents in the motor housing. BLDC motors don’t require the airflow for cooling that standard AC motors rely on, so Atomberg sealed the body. The bonus is that over time, flour and chutney don’t get into the motor, which is a common failure point with traditional mixers. The trade-off is that the lack of a visible airflow path makes it more difficult to tell from the outside how hard the motor is working at any given moment; you’re relying on LED indicators rather than intuition.
Atomberg Zenova Mixer Grinder Review: Performance, Motor and Features
The Atomberg Zenova mixer grinder has 550W BLDC power, which is equivalent to a 1000W AC motor. Wattage and effective grinding power are not the same thing, so it’s not an unreasonable statement, but it’s also not something to accept just because a brand says so. The advantage of a BLDC motor is variable, efficient speed control rather than raw power; it can run 2,000 RPM tasks at much lower power than an AC motor would need to get down to that range. Whether this translates into “1000W equivalent” performance for real tough ingredients (dried turmeric, whole spices, hard legumes) is the real part to be tested, not the marketing line.
In practice, both turmeric sticks and dry masala are ground without audible motor straining sounds or a burnt smell, which is a reasonable standard for cleanup. This proves that the motor is more than capable of handling tough ingredients. By itself, this doesn’t prove it’s a match for a 1000W motor in every use case – short test cycles won’t validate heavier, longer-duration loads.
Coarse mode: what it actually does and doesn’t do
Coarse mode runs at about 5,000 RPM, well below the motor’s 18,000 RPM limit, and its purpose is to stop grinding before everything becomes even and smooth. Testing the same ingredients on the regular speed setting, the difference was measurable: The chutney made in coarse mode retained small pieces of coconut and chilli, rather than becoming a single blended paste. This part of the claim was tested.
What it does is not exactly replicate a stone grind. The silbatta works by squeezing and shearing in an irregular human rhythm. Coarse mode still has the blade spinning at a fixed lower speed, producing a rougher texture, but not quite the same. Calling it “sil-batta-like” is more accurate than most such marketing comparisons, but it’s an approximation, not a replacement. It’s worth knowing before paying extra specifically for this feature.
For everyday tasks like idli batter, wet grinding and dal for vada batter, the Zenova performed within the expected range of a mid-to-high-end blender. The batter is smooth and there is no significant heating, which is important for later fermentation. The pulse button jumps the motor up to 18,000 RPM for a short period of time, useful for thicker loads where standard speed settings are a little difficult. None of this is exceptional. It is qualified, which is a more relevant standard for kitchen appliances used daily.
More important features than expected
The more convincing aspects of this product are its security and usability. The jar lock system, fault alarm, and restart protection are not eye-catching features, but they solve common annoyances associated with traditional mixer grinders. These additional features make the device feel more modern without fundamentally changing the way it is used.
That said, electronic systems also introduce additional points of failure compared to purely mechanical designs. Long-term reliability will ultimately determine whether these features continue to be advantageous after years of use.
chopper tank
The 0.5-liter chopper tank automatically limits the motor to around 2,000 RPM when locked, eliminating the need for any manual speed selection. The result is chopped onions and tomatoes that retain their shape rather than turning into a wet, semi-blend mixture that would normally be accomplished using a grinding jar for the same task. This is a real functional difference, not a cosmetic one; the automatic speed limiter feature really makes a difference here. However, it’s a small jar, suitable for single-meal sizes rather than batch preparations, and it doesn’t replace a knife for anything other than basic dicing.
Build, Noise and Limitations
Noise levels are lower than older AC motor blenders, although “quiet” is a relative term; a hum is still audible at the highest speed setting. At full rpm, the base feels stable on the counter, without the vibration-induced movement that some lighter blenders exhibit.
These limitations are straightforward rather than dramatic. If your kitchen outlet isn’t close to your preferred counter space, the cord may be shorter than ideal. The smaller size of the 1 liter multi-purpose jar makes it suitable for batch cooking in large households, which means larger quantities need to be refilled more frequently. The overall feature set (apart from the rough mode) doesn’t significantly exceed what’s offered by competing mixers in the same price range.
final verdict
The Atomberg Zenova is one of the few mixer-grinders trying to rethink a product category that has remained largely unchanged for years. Not every innovation here will be equally useful for every home, and depending on cooking habits, some features may be more relevant than others.
Its strongest argument isn’t raw performance, but overall user experience. Kibble mode provides a real point of differentiation, while safety and convenience features add a layer of refinement not often seen in this category.
However, buyers should view this as a premium mixer grinder with a different philosophy rather than a direct replacement for traditional high-power models. Zenova succeeds in bringing fresh ideas to the market, but whether those ideas are reasonably priced ultimately comes down to how much users value convenience, control, and modern design.

Republican Senator Roger Marshall has spoken out against the long waits for green cards faced by many Indians in the United States, saying the current system is unfair. Marshall, speaking at a Capitol Hill event attended by Indian Americans, said he does not support per-country caps on green cards, which has led to some Indian applicants waiting decades to obtain permanent residency. His comments came as some Republicans called for tighter immigration policies, including calling for a permanent moratorium on H-1B visas for Indians.

Roger Marshall says green card cap unfair to Indians
The Kansas senator made the remarks at an event organized by the India Foundation Indian Diaspora Studies. Marshall said the current green card system punishes people because of where they were born, not what they did.
“We tell the hardest-working immigrants in the world that this line has been 70 years old. Not because of anything you did, but because so many of you came from the same place,” Marshall said.
He described per-country green card restrictions as “one of the greatest injustices” in the United States and said he would continue to raise the issue through legal and practical efforts.
According to current U.S. law, the proportion of family-sponsored and employment-based green cards issued by any country each year cannot exceed 7%. Since applications from India have exceeded this limit for years, there has been a huge backlog.
For many Indian professionals, the wait is excruciatingly long. In certain employment categories, Indians who receive green cards in 2026 typically began applying for green cards more than a decade ago, around 2013 or 2014.
Roger Marshall praises Indian Americans and their contributions
Marshall also highlighted the economic contributions of Indian Americans. The community makes up about 1.5% of the total population, he said. us population, but contribute a much larger share of federal income taxes.
“Every time someone in Washington questions whether legal immigration works, you are the answer,” Marshall said. “You’re not arguing, you’re the answer.”
The senator also spoke positively of US-India relations, saying both countries benefit when the partnership becomes stronger.
“When this relationship works, both countries benefit. American farmers benefit, Indian consumers benefit, and the strategic balance in the 21st century tilts toward democracy and away from authoritarianism,” he said.
oft-cited 70 years green card Wait times are based on projections of the number of people entering the queue today, if current rules remain in place and the number of applications continues to increase. Immigration experts note, however, that wait times may change.
Some applicants drop out of the process, return to India, or enter a different immigration category, which could impact the backlog over time.
