- Why is Gaza starving?
- Runtime

- Date posted

- Description
- Warnings of famine in the Gaza Strip have increased after nearly 22 months of war, with the death toll mounting and no signs of an imminent breakthrough in truce talks. Israel has announced a limited “tactical pause” to allow aid groups to address the deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza. International pressure has been building for a ceasefire to allow for a more substantive relief operation.
Israel's military campaign in Gaza has so far killed more than 60,000 Palestinians, mostly civilians, according to figures by the health ministry in the Hamas-run territory. The UN considers the figures reliable.

Scroll Adda Episode #5
As a prolific mythologist with more than 60 books, Devdutt Pattanaik has single-handedly created a new genre of writing in India. His thoughtful commentaries on India’s epics have allowed everyday people to think and reflect on their mythology.
In this 1.5-hour conversation with Shoaib Daniyal, Pattanaik explains why Indians might have a genius for mythology and why we all live in mythos. Many rationalists merge the idea of myth and fiction but Pattanaik argues that both are very different. Myth can be thought of as an operating system for humans, he explains.
Pattanaik says that he faced censure from Brahmins for writing about Hindu scriptures as a non-Brahmin. He also opens up about his own experiences of growing up gay and how that informed his view on mythology.

- Description
- In this episode of our discussion series, author and peace worker Harsh Mander speaks with political scientist Professor Zoya Hasan and social activist Anjali Bhardwaj about the recently announced special Intensive revisions of electoral rolls in Bihar. The conversation examines the timing, intent, and impact of this sudden revision.
What does it mean for citizenship, for marginalised communities, and for the ongoing debate around documentation in India? Is this merely a data exercise, or does it signal something more, possibly a National Register of Citizens (NRC) being introduced through the backdoor? The conversation explores how such measures can risk undermining constitutional values and stoking anxieties among vulnerable populations.

- US President Donald Trump has issued Moscow with a dramatic new deadline to end the war in Ukraine or face tough new sanctions, as he met UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Scotland.
Trump, sitting alongside Starmer at the US leader's luxury golf resort in Turnberry, south of Glasgow, said he was "very disappointed" with Putin over continued strikes against Ukrainian civilian targets.
He announced that he was reducing an earlier 50-day deadline set on July 14 for Putin to bring the Ukraine conflict to an end to "about 10 or 12 days", starting immediately.

- Description
- Truckloads of food reached hungry Gazans on Monday after Israel promised to open secure aid routes, but humanitarian agencies warned vast amounts more were needed to stave off starvation.
With Gaza's population of more than two million facing famine and malnutrition, Israel bowed to international pressure at the weekend and announced a daily "tactical pause" in fighting in some areas.
Jordan and the United Arab Emirates have begun air-dropping aid packages by parachute over Gaza, while Egypt has sent trucks through its Rafah border crossing to an Israeli post just inside the Palestinian Territory.

Scroll Adda Episode #4
Punjabi, Bengali, Tamil, Kayastha, Baniya – the Indian subcontinent has more varieties of food than possibly any other place on Earth.
So much so that food writer and historian Pushpesh Pant argues it’s difficult to identify anything as “Indian food” at all.
On the fourth episode of Scroll Adda with Shoaib Daniyal, Pant speaks with erudition and humour about popular Indian food myths (did you know there’s no biryani in Lucknow?), how food intersects with identities such as caste and gender, and shares some of his favourite dishes.

The discussion focuses on the presence and influence of Hindutva ideology among Indian diaspora communities in the west. The panel examines how Hindutva ideas are being promoted and normalised abroad, particularly through religious, cultural, and political organisations, and how this affects both diaspora communities and politics in India.
The conversation also addresses whether sections of the diaspora are funding or supporting political and ideological campaigns in India, and how these networks operate.

- Images released by the Kurdish media outlet Rudaw show an Israeli air strike hitting the Syrian army headquarters in Damascus during its live coverage, with the reporter screaming and running for cover as a massive cloud of smoke billows into the sky.
Israel says it struck Syria in a warning to the Islamist-led government to leave the Druze minority alone in its Sweida heartland, where the Syrian Observatory of Human Rights says sectarian clashes have killed more than 300 people in days of violence.

- US President Donald Trump has told Russia to end its war in Ukraine within 50 days or face massive new economic sanctions, as he laid out plans for infusions of weaponry for Kyiv via NATO.
Trump said that they would be "secondary tariffs" that target Russia's remaining trade partners -- seeking to impede Moscow's ability to survive already sweeping Western sanctions.
China, Russia’s top trading partner, condemned “coercion” by the US.

On June 24, the Election Commission announced a "special intensive revision" of the electoral rolls in Bihar, ahead of the Assembly elections expected to be held in the state later this year.
As part of the exercise, persons whose names were not on the 2003 voter list will need to submit proof of eligibility to vote. Opposition parties and civil society groups have questioned the exercise, casting doubts over its timing and feasibility. They have also raised doubts about its methodology.
Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has moved the Supreme Court to try and stop the revision.
In this interview with Moitra, she speaks about the process, calling it a way to disenfranchise voters "by design". Speaking about the conduct of the Election Commission, she says, "This is the new EC...it's no longer an EC but a branch of the BJP."
