- Iran war is a "strategic disaster" for Trump and USA: Editor-in-Chief of The Economist, Zanny Minton Beddoes, to Karan Thapar for The Wire.
.........................................
The Editor-in-Chief of The Economist, Zanny Minton Beddoes, says the Iran war is a “strategic disaster” for President Donald Trump and the USA. She said: “I think this is along the line of Suez for the Brits. A very big geo-strategic misstep where the US has, I think, unambiguously lost from this. And it’s in a weaker position in the Gulf and it’s in a weaker position internationally.”
Ms. Minton Beddoes said Trump should be thought of not as a conventional American President with a cabinet and advisors who speak their mind, debate and then come to agreed conclusions but as a King surrounded by courtiers who vie to tell him what he wants to hear.
Ms. Minton Beddoes believes that there is a good chance the wa...

- After the first phase of elections in West Bengal conducted under the shadow of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls following which the electorate in the state has shrunk by about 90 lakh, the state has seen a record high voter turnout of about 93%.
Home Minister Amit Shah has declared that the BJP will win 110 seats out of the 152 that went to the polls on Thursday.
What explains the BJP's confidence? Will its campaign riding on communalism and driving out alleged illegal infiltrators work? Will it gain from 15 years of anti-incumbency against Mamata Banerjee? and Will it finally manage to breakthrough in Bengal, a state has remained out of reach despite three successive governments at the centre?

- Government data now confirms that in March 2026, four out of India’s eight core sectors have shrunk. Within just the first four months of 2026, Foreign Portfolio Investors have pulled out more money from India than they did in any entire previous year. The rupee is falling faster than any other major currency in the world, while both exports and manufacturing continue to decline. What started as a manufacturing crisis triggered by the post-war LPG shock has now turned into a full-blown labour crisis. For the past three weeks, factory workers in several North Indian cities have taken to the streets—unable to find decent work or earn enough to survive. These are the stories that rarely make it to prime time, hidden behind cold data and fancy jargon. Meanwhile, India has slipped from being the 4th largest economy to the 6th—so yes, go ahead and celebrate that with some jhal muri if you like. But the real question is: why is the Indian economy becoming so volatile? And more important...

- A Lebanese journalist who was wounded in an Israeli airstrike that killed her colleague this week described hours of agony as they waited for help to arrive, in an interview with The Associated Press on Friday.
Zeinab Faraj, a young freelance photographer and video journalist, frequently moved on assignment with Amal Khalil, a longtime correspondent in southern Lebanon with the Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar.
The two were driving behind a relative of Faraj in the village of al-Tiri, about 8 kilometers (5 miles) from the border with Israel on Wednesday. That was five days after a fragile truce was implemented between Israel and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, planning to cover the post-ceasefire situation in the area.
As they passed through the village, Khalil holding her phone out the window to film, an Israeli strike hit the car in front of them, Faraj said, speaking from the Beirut hospital where she is recovering.

- By all accounts, the assembly elections in Bengal are different. The SIR has pushed almost all issues to the background, bringing existing vulnerabilities to the fore. Questions of identity have gained paramount importance. Are the BJP’s efforts at projecting itself as a Bengal party enough? Or will it for short against the TMC’s impression on people?
To help us understand all of this ahead of the second phase of elections on April 29, The Wire’s Soumashree Sarkar speaks to Suvojit Bagchi, a veteran journalist who has had noteworthy stints at The Hindu, the BBC and the Anandabazar Patrika.

- Every once in a while, things happen that halt the regular, everyday flow of news. The special intensive revision in Bengal is one such event. It has challenged what we have so far considered a given – the right to vote.
One person who has followed the Bengal SIR doggedly since November last year and has refused to go by the Election Commission’s press releases and also the talking points offered by political parties is Aparna Bhattacharya.
While we understand the denial of rights at an individual and societal level, how expansive it is is something only data can reveal. That the absence of your name in the voters list may have something to do with your identity, situation, and location is something that has been unveiled with the help of Aparna’s stories on the Bengal SIR.
Aparna walks The Wire’s own data analyst, Pavan Korada, and news editor Soumashree Sarkar through the process.
