While Israel has expressed its intent to disrupt Iran’s nuclear program, the complete destruction of Iran’s most heavily fortified underground nuclear facilities, particularly the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant, is widely believed to be beyond Israel’s current independent capabilities.
Here’s why:
* Fordow’s Depth and Hardening: The Fordow facility is buried deep within a mountain, reportedly 80-90 meters (260-300 feet) underground, and is heavily reinforced. This makes it extremely difficult to penetrate with conventional weaponry.
* “Bunker Buster” Limitations: While Israel possesses some “bunker buster” bombs (like the GBU-28 and BLU-109), these have a shallower penetration range and are not considered powerful enough to reach Fordow’s deepest sections.
* US-Exclusive Capability: The only weapon widely believed to be capable of destroying Fordow is the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP), a 30,000-pound (13,600kg) precision-guided bomb. The United States is the only country that possesses the GBU-57, and it can only be delivered by a US B-2 stealth bomber.
* Need for Multiple Strikes: Even with the MOP, experts suggest that multiple sequential strikes would likely be needed to achieve full destruction of such a deeply buried and hardened facility.
What Israel can and has targeted:
Israel has reportedly focused its strikes on other Iranian nuclear and military sites, including:
* Natanz enrichment plant: This is Iran’s main enrichment site, and while parts of it are underground, it’s considered less deeply buried than Fordow. Israeli strikes have reportedly damaged its subterranean centrifuge halls.
* Centrifuge workshops near Tehran.
* Laboratories in Isfahan.
* Arak heavy water reactor: Recent reports indicate damage to key buildings at this facility.
In summary:
While Israel is actively seeking to degrade Iran’s nuclear capabilities, completely destroying heavily fortified underground “fortresses” like Fordow likely requires the deployment of the US’s most advanced “bunker buster” bombs and the aircraft to deliver them. Without direct US involvement or the transfer of these specific capabilities, a full destruction of Fordow by Israel alone is considered highly improbable.

The claim that cricketer MS Dhoni has joined the BJP is false.

This rumor often circulates on social media, typically accompanied by AI-generated images showing him with political figures like PM Modi and wearing BJP scarves.

Here’s what the truth is:

• AI-generated images: The images circulating are confirmed to be AI-generated or digitally altered. Fact-checking organizations have used AI detection tools to verify this.
• No credible reports: There have been no credible news reports from major media outlets confirming that MS Dhoni has joined the BJP. Such a significant event would be widely reported.
• Origin of the rumor: Some of these viral images originated from satire or parody accounts that explicitly stated their content was for entertainment purposes only.
• Past Speculation: While there have been past speculations about Dhoni’s potential entry into politics after retirement, particularly when he met with BJP leaders as part of outreach programs (like Amit Shah’s “Sampark for Samarthan” initiative in 2018), he has not officially joined any political party.
• Brand Ambassador for EC: It’s worth noting that MS Dhoni has served as a brand ambassador for the Election Commission in Jharkhand to promote voter awareness and participation, but this is a non-political role aimed at encouraging civic engagement.

In summary, MS Dhoni has not joined the BJP. The claims are based on misleading or fabricated content.

Yes, it’s true that China has introduced 10G internet service.

In April 2025, China launched its first commercial 10-Gigabit (10G) broadband network in Sunan County, Hebei Province, and also in Xiong’an New Area. This was a collaborative effort between Huawei و China Unicom.

Here are some key facts about this development:

• Speed: The network aims to deliver download speeds of up to 9,834 Mbps (nearly 10 Gbps) and upload speeds of around 1,008 Mbps, with a very low latency of just 3 milliseconds.
• Technology: It’s powered by 50G Passive Optical Network (PON) technology, which significantly enhances data transmission over existing fiber-optic infrastructure. This means it’s a fixed-line broadband service, not a mobile network like 5G.
• Impact: This level of speed is expected to support advanced applications like 8K video streaming, virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), cloud computing, telemedicine, remote education, and smart city initiatives. For example, a 20GB 4K movie could be downloaded in under 20 seconds.
• Global Position: This launch positions China at the forefront of global broadband technology, surpassing many other countries in commercially available top speeds.

While it’s currently available in specific areas, it marks a significant step forward in internet infrastructure and demonstrates China’s push in next-generation connectivity.

Field Marshal Asim Munir, Pakistan’s Army Chief, held a two-hour, one-on-one meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House on June 19, 2025. This meeting was unprecedented and significant given the rare direct engagement between a US President and a Pakistani Army Chief without other senior civilian officials present.

Key discussion points included:

• Regional Peace and Stability: Both leaders lauded efforts for regional peace and stability. Trump specifically thanked Munir for his role in facilitating a ceasefire between India and Pakistan after a four-day conflict in May, which Trump had previously claimed credit for brokering.
• Counter-terrorism Cooperation: They reaffirmed commitment to continued collaboration in counter-terrorism efforts, with Trump appreciating Pakistan’s robust cooperation in this field.
• Iran-Israel Tensions: A significant portion of the discussion focused on the escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. Both Munir and Trump emphasized the need for a peaceful resolution to the conflict. Trump acknowledged Pakistan’s unique understanding of Iran, stating, “Pakistan understands Iran better than many others, and they are clearly not pleased with the current tensions.” Munir reportedly urged Trump not to involve the US in the conflict and to seek a ceasefire.
• Bilateral Economic Cooperation: Discussions spanned avenues for expanding bilateral cooperation in various domains, including:
  • Economic development
  • Mines and minerals
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI)
  • Energy
  • Cryptocurrency
  • Emerging technologies Trump expressed keen interest in forging a mutually beneficial trade partnership with Pakistan.
• India-Pakistan Relations: Munir conveyed Pakistan’s appreciation for Trump’s role in the recent India-Pakistan ceasefire and discussed the importance of dialogue to resolve issues between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. Trump also highlighted the need for a trade agreement with Pakistan.

Agreements and Outcomes:

While no formal, publicly released agreements were detailed by the White House, the Pakistani military’s media wing, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), indicated several positive outcomes:

• Renewed Commitment to Counter-terrorism: Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to continued collaboration in this area.
• Exploration of Trade and Economic Partnerships: There was a clear indication of mutual interest in expanding trade and cooperation in emerging technologies and resource sectors.
• Emphasis on Peaceful Resolution of Conflicts: Both leaders stressed the importance of dialogue and peaceful resolution for regional conflicts, particularly concerning Iran and Israel.
• Invitation to Trump: Field Marshal Munir extended an invitation to Donald Trump, on behalf of the Government of Pakistan, for an official visit to Pakistan at a mutually convenient date.
• Strengthening Bilateral Ties: The meeting was described as a significant milestone, marking a new chapter in strengthening the longstanding Pakistan-US partnership, built on shared objectives of peace, stability, and prosperity.

The meeting suggests a potential strategic reset in US-Pakistan relations, driven by Washington’s search for allies in the context of regional tensions and Pakistan’s economic challenges.
