A video circulating on social media has drawn attention to the situation of women in Afghanistan following reports of a hit-and-run incident and allegations of violence against female protesters.

According to Afghan media outlet Aamaj News, a vehicle allegedly struck four women who were walking along a street. Reports claimed that the SUV was being driven by a Taliban member.

The footage reportedly shows the vehicle hitting the women before fleeing the scene.

Witnesses said two of the women managed to move out of the way in time, while the remaining two were struck by the vehicle. One of the victims was reported to be in critical condition.

Pedestrians nearby quickly rushed to assist the injured women.

The video was later shared on X by Iranian activist Masih Alinejad, who said she received the footage from an Afghan woman.

Sharing the video, Alinejad wrote:

“I received this video from a woman of Afghanistan with a [simple] message: ‘Please use your platform and tell the world that they are killing us here, we are tired of Taliban. Please don’t let the world forget Afghan women. We are fed up with Taliban. Enough is enough’.”

She added that the person responsible for the incident had reportedly been identified and that efforts to apprehend them were ongoing. However, no further details were provided regarding the alleged Taliban connection.

In a separate post, Alinejad also shared claims regarding the treatment of women protesting for their rights in Afghanistan.

According to her statement:

“Today, women in Afghanistan are being shot in the streets simply for wanting an education, wanting a job. Wanting to work and wanting to walk outside without a man’s permission.

Taliban security forces killed one person and several wounded. Dozens arrested including women and girls.

It started last Friday, when Taliban imams announced from mosque loudspeakers that women were forbidden from leaving their homes without full hijab, including face cover.

Morality police flooded Herat’s streets, markets, and shopping centers, batons in hand, arresting women for their clothing.

Just one day after some men in the West rolled out the red carpet for the Taliban, normalizing them, legitimizing them, shaking their hands, you can see how savagely women being shot and beaten up in the streets.”

A family of six has tragically lost their lives in a road accident in Malaysia just hours after collecting their brand-new vehicle from a dealership.

The victims had reportedly picked up their new Proton X50 SUV at around 11 a.m. on June 7 and even posed for photographs with the vehicle before setting off on a journey to visit the grave of a deceased family member.

According to reports, the SUV was owned by 21-year-old Ahmad Fahim Ahmad Shukri.

The family was travelling toward a cemetery when tragedy struck in Juru, Penang.

Eyewitness accounts and dashcam footage reportedly showed the SUV veering into the opposite lane on a straight section of road in Kampung Baru Pinang Tunggal before colliding head-on with a 10-tonne lorry carrying soil.

Emergency responders rushed to the scene, but six occupants of the vehicle were pronounced dead.

The victims were identified as Ahmad Fahim Ahmad Shukri, his elder brother Lance Corporal Ahmad Syafiq Ahmad Shukri, 27, Nora Mhd Husin, 55, Jamaliah Sannusi, 27, Iskandar Arfan Ibrahim, 7, and two-month-old Ahmad Mikail Ahmad Syafiq.

A three-year-old girl, Aulia Sofea Ahmad Syafiq, survived the crash and was taken to hospital for treatment. She was reported to be in serious condition.

Speaking about the heartbreaking loss, Ibrahim Ghazali, the father of seven-year-old Iskandar Arfan, said the family had been excited about receiving the new vehicle earlier that day.

“They were very happy this morning to collect the car, but everything happened so suddenly.

“We never saw it coming.”

A woman identified as Ntanganedzeni Siphugu has appeared before a court in Limpopo, South Africa, after being charged in connection with the deaths of her two children.

Siphugu appeared in court on Tuesday facing two counts of murder following the deaths of her children, aged six and nine.

According to the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), the incident occurred on June 1, 2026, at Madabani Village in Limpopo.

NPA spokesperson Mashudu Malabi said investigations indicate that the mother allegedly gave the children a poisonous substance at their family home.

According to Malabi, the children became seriously ill the following day after allegedly consuming the substance.

One of the children was rushed to a nearby hospital for medical treatment but was pronounced dead on arrival. The second child also later died.

The deaths prompted a police investigation, which subsequently led to Siphugu’s arrest and prosecution.

The matter was brought before the Tshilwavhusiku Magistrate’s Court, where the case was postponed until June 12, 2026, to allow for a formal bail application.

Siphugu remains in custody pending the outcome of the bail proceedings.

A former teacher, Gary Day-Davies, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison after being convicted of r£ping and s£xually assaulting a female pupil.

The offences took place between 2006 and 2009 while Day-Davies was teaching at a school in Salford.

According to reports, the abuse began after the student was invited to the teacher’s home, where he allegedly provided her with drugs and alcohol before s£xually assaulting her.

The court heard that the abus£ continued over a period of time, with further assaults taking place at the school, including in a library and a classroom store cupboard.

In 2022, the victim reported the incidents to police, prompting an investigation into the allegations.

During the investigation, Day-Davies denied the accusations and reportedly claimed that the former pupil “must have just held a bit of a grudge” against him.

However, a court later found him guilty of three counts of rap£, three counts of s£xual assault, and one count of s£xual assault by touching a child.

On Monday, June 8, Day-Davies, who is from Swinton, Greater Manchester, was sentenced at Liverpool Crown Court to 15 years in prison.

During the hearing, the victim delivered an emotional statement describing the impact the case had on her life and the relief she felt following the verdict.

She said:

“Since receiving the news of the guilty verdicts, I feel like an enormous weight was lifted off my shoulders.

“The emotional trauma bond that I have endured for the last 20 years has finally severed.

“I can eventually breathe and think for myself without constant fear of the consequences.

“I finally have justice – this is justice not for me as a child but now as an adult too.

“As much as the outcome gives me some form of closure, I have not fully processed the full extent of this situation yet.

“I know I have a long road ahead of me in terms of recovery and I am very much looking forward to see what the future looks like for me.”

At least 22 people have been confirmed dead following a devastating fire at Flourish Stays, a bed-and-breakfast facility located in Hauz Rani, Malviya Nagar, South Delhi, India.

Authorities said several others sustained injuries in the incident, which has triggered an extensive investigation into the circumstances surrounding the blaze.

According to police, a Nigerian national was among those who lost their lives in the tragedy.

An officer said the victim, described as a middle-aged man, had been staying at the facility for several days before the fire broke out.

“The Nigerian national, a middle-aged man, had been staying at the hotel for the past few days. After the incident, he was taken to a nearby hospital and later referred to Safdarjung Hospital, where he died during treatment on Saturday. He suffered burn injuries,” an officer said, adding that the Nigerian Embassy had been informed.

As investigations continue, Delhi Police have intensified efforts to locate the hotel’s accountant, Jay Mishra, and manager, Rakesh, who was reportedly inside the building when the fire started.

Police sources revealed that three hotel employees were present at the time of the incident — chef Keshav Negi, manager Rakesh, and a helper who was asleep on one of the upper floors.

According to investigators, the fire is believed to have started in the kitchen on the ground floor.

“Manager Rakesh was sitting at the reception when the fire broke out in the kitchen on the ground floor. Chef Keshav was in the kitchen when he noticed sparks in an air fryer, which led to a heat blast in the machine. However, instead of alerting others, he fled the hotel without informing anyone,” an officer associated with the investigation said.

Authorities further alleged that Negi could have alerted emergency responders or assisted in evacuation efforts.

“His arrest was made based on his alleged culpability and evidence collected during the investigation,” the officer said.

On Sunday, investigators took Negi back to the hotel to reconstruct the sequence of events leading up to the fire. Police questioned him regarding the origin of the blaze and the actions he took immediately afterward.

The case has also attracted the attention of political leaders. Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami said he spoke with Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta regarding Negi’s arrest after the suspect’s family claimed he had been wrongly implicated.

“Today, I spoke with the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Delhi, Mrs. Rekha Gupta, regarding the arrest of Mr. Keshav Negi of Uttarakhand in connection with the Malviya Nagar fire incident in Delhi,” Dhami wrote on X.

According to Dhami, Gupta assured him that the investigation would be conducted fairly and based strictly on evidence.

Dhami also disclosed that he spoke with Negi’s daughter and promised support to the family while the investigation continues.

Police said Negi has been working at the hotel for the past two years and resides in Dilshad Garden, East Delhi, with his wife and two children.

Three people have been confirmed dead following a train accident involving the Warri-Itakpe Train Service (WITS) in Agbor, Delta State.

According to the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC), the incident occurred on Monday, June 8, 2026, when four coaches of the train left the rail track.

Emergency response teams were immediately deployed to the scene to assist passengers and manage the situation.

The Managing Director of the NRC, Dr. Kayode Opeifa, said relevant authorities were working together to provide support to those affected by the accident.

In a statement, the corporation said:

“The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has confirmed a serious train accident involving the Warri–Itakpe Train Service (WITS) corridor at Agbor, Delta State.

“Rescue and emergency response operations were immediately activated. All passengers on board have now been accounted for.

“Sadly, three fatalities have been confirmed at this time.”

The NRC stated that all passengers aboard the train have been accounted for as rescue and recovery efforts continue.

Mrs. Alamu Folawe, the vice principal who was abducted alongside other victims in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State, has appealed to Nigerians to stop spreading what she described as false reports about the demands of their captors.

In a video released while still in captivity, Folawe expressed concern over media reports claiming that the kidnappers were demanding a huge ransom, weapons, or the implementation of Sharia law.

According to her, the reports are inaccurate and only serve to complicate efforts aimed at securing their freedom.

Speaking in the video, she said:

“It seems that some people are making our problem to be complicated, we were shown some print media where it was stated that this people that abducted us requested for release of some people, they requested for billion naira, they requested for sharia to be entrenched to the country this are not true, they are just trying to create problems for us we have been here since, we have not been forced to worship in islamic way we have been left alone they have not. troubled us concerning that…..

They are not asking for sharia law, they are not asking for money the single thing they are asking for is the release of some of their people I Don’t know why they are peddling this rumours to make it complicated for us…..

Please we are just begging you dont play politics with our lives Nigerians please help us to circulate thi, Let it go viral……

they are not asking for sharia law its nto true, they are not asking for weapons they are not asking for money all they want is the release of some people.”

Folawe urged Nigerians to help share her message widely, insisting that misinformation about the kidnappers’ demands could make the situation more difficult for those being held.

The Oyo State Government has demolished a three-bedroom bungalow allegedly used by kidnappers to hold the sister of former Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, and her twin sons.

The property, located in the Lako Community along the Aiyegun-Anaye Road area of Ibadan, was reportedly being used as a hideout by the criminal gang responsible for the abduction.

The demolition exercise was carried out on Monday by officials of the Oyo State Ministry of Public Works and Transportation, with support from operatives of the Nigeria Police Force.

Authorities visited the site as part of ongoing efforts to combat kidnapping and other criminal activities across the state.

A young man has tragically lost his life after drowning in a swimming pool while reportedly trying to impress his girlfriend in Keumbu, Kisii County, Kenya.

The incident was said to have occurred at a village park where the victim had visited with his girlfriend.

According to reports, the young man did not know how to swim and had no prior swimming experience. However, in an attempt to impress his partner, he reportedly entered the deeper end of the swimming pool while pretending to be confident in the water.

Unfortunately, he was unable to stay afloat and eventually drowned before help could arrive.

It was also reported that no lifeguards were present at the time of the incident, which delayed any immediate rescue efforts.

By the time assistance could have been provided, it was already too late to save him.
