Delhi protests, Trump's Russia diesel deal and Panama quake
11m 8s
Indian authorities have detained youth protest leader Abhijit Dipke and dozens of others ahead of a rally demanding the resignation of election official Kayandra Kumar, amid widespread security measures in New Delhi. Protesters allege that millions have been removed from voter rolls, a claim denied by officials, and the youth continue to return to the streets despite arrests, signaling ongoing tension. In parallel, the U.S. and Russia have reached a diesel supply deal, with Russia to deliver over 300,000 metric tons of fuel, though analysts say it won't reduce fuel prices significantly. Ukrainian President Zelensky condemned the deal as supporting Russia’s war effort, while a Russian attack killed at least 12 in Zaporizhia. In Panama, a major 7.7 magnitude earthquake damaged buildings and sparked fires, but no fatalities and key infrastructure remains operational. In the U.S., President Trump has publicly supported the execution of former Army psychiatrist Nadal Hassan, proposing a live-streaming of the event—triggering strong criticism from human rights groups who argue it constitutes torture and violates international law. Trump also disputed the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to Navi Pallay, claiming he deserved it for resolving international conflicts and calling the decision a “disgrace.” Meanwhile, PrizePix promotes its app with a $150 instant reward offer for users who win their first $5 lineup.

India's capital is under heavy security after authorities detained Abhijit Dipke, the founder of the cockroach youth movement,
and scores of other protesters ahead of a rally demanding the resignation of India's top,
election official,
Kayandra Kumar.
Metro stations have been closed,
mobile internet suspended,
and thousands of security personnel deployed across New Delhi.
Reuters correspondent Aftab Ahmed is in New Delhi.
So New Delhi is right now completely fortified with something that I haven't seen in my last 20 years of living in Delhi.
The mood is bleak.
There is an airy sort of situation in Delhi where you can see columns of security forces,
walking with batons with riot gears and it is quite intimidating right now in Delhi.
At the center of the disputes are allegations that millions of names were removed from India's voter rolls.
Claims election officials deny.
What the youth protesters have shown is that they have this tenacity to come back and keep protesting.
Even as they are getting detained right now, they are pouring in in different parts of Delhi and they are being put into buses and they are being removed from the streets of Delhi.
And they are being put into buses and they are being removed from those places, but they are coming back in hundreds.
So it seems like this tension between authorities and the civilian protesters will go on for some time.
The arrest of Abhijit Dipke, the founder of Cockroach and the Party, could turn things more tense.
U.S., Ukrainian and European negotiators spent six hours in talks in Miami on Friday, aiming to reach an agreement on a unified policy.
The talks come after President Trump announced a deal to bring Russian diesel back into global markets after temporarily lifting sanctions on Russian fuel.
Russia will immediately supply more than 300,000 metric tons of diesel to U.S. and global markets.
As Trump says, more will follow.
Analysts said the agreement was unlikely to lead to sustained lower fuel prices, as the average U.S. diesel price sits at $6.28 a gallon.
Ukrainian President Zelensky criticized the move, saying it would benefit Moscow's war effort.
Meanwhile, at least 12 people were killed by a Russian attack on the southern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhia.
A video from an eyewitness captures the moment a powerful earthquake strikes Panama, with an electrical line exploding and people running for safety.
A magnitude 7.7 earthquake damaged buildings and set thousands of people on fire.
Despite more than 40 aftershocks, there are no immediate reports of deaths or serious injuries.
And key infrastructure, including the Panama Canal and the country's main airport, remains operational.
Officials are now assessing the damage.
As residents describe strong, prolonged shaking that sent people running into the streets.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., Hurricane Isaias has rapidly lost wind speed, weakening into chaos.
It is expected to be a Category 1 storm after making landfall in Florida.
But the threat remains, with warnings of danger from storm surges and flash flooding.
More than half a million homes and businesses across Florida and Alabama are without power.
President Donald Trump says he absolutely approved the execution of Nadal Hassan,
the former Army psychiatrist convicted of killing 13 people at Fort Hood in Texas.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he had signed off on the execution,
but had not yet signed off on the execution.
He said he had not yet decided where the footage of it should be shown via live stream.
I really don't care how he goes, as long as he goes.
And I think that the death penalty is a very worthy way of going for him.
The proposal to live stream the execution has drawn criticism from human rights groups.
Public executions constitute a form of cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
That should be amount to a spokesperson for the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights.
The live streaming of an execution is tantamount to a public. public execution and would breach the absolute prohibition of torture.
Our Pentagon reporter, Phil Stewart, says the military's decision to broadcast the execution on December 3rd
would be unprecedented in many ways.
What was really shocking and what really surprised a lot of people
was that the Pentagon would decide to do this execution publicly for a whole host of reasons.
A lot of former national security officials are making the point that, you know,
doing this could help inspire a whole new group of extremists
who will see this and think that it is something that needs to be fought against.
You know, America's enemies will use this for their propaganda.
And some people just say that it's, you know, morally beneath the United States
to publicize this kind of violence, that executions are something that the U.S. should do, maybe,
but that they shouldn't be done publicly.
They should be done with the sobriety that the act of killing someone deserves.
And, you know, of course, there's those like the National Bishops Conference
who are opposed to the death penalty and think the whole thing
should be called off altogether.
So there's a whole range of opinions.
Pete Hegseth, the defense secretary, believes that this public display of the shooting
will be a deterrent to other would-be attackers.
