Last update: 9 hours agoAviation Safety & Regulation: India’s Civil Aviation Ministry says the Air India Phuket–Delhi Airbus A320 incident is now tied to a “confirmatory” psychoactive drug test after an initial screening flagged the pilot-in-command; both pilots were removed from the roster while the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau probes the sudden ~300-ft altitude loss. Severe Weather Disruption: Typhoon Dolphin made landfall on China’s east coast near Zhejiang, bringing torrential rain, flooding and landslide warnings; China cancelled about 1,500 flights around Shanghai and Japan’s Okinawa saw power cuts and injuries. Maritime Governance: India launched E-Samudra to digitise maritime administration and seafarer services under one platform, including grievance handling and welfare tools. Trade & Routes: Russia floated a direct rail link to the Indian Ocean via Turkmenistan, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan to reduce reliance on Bosphorus/Hormuz chokepoints. Regional Security: Taiwan held Han Kuang drills in Kaohsiung simulating responses to a mainland amphibious landing, with military and missile-capable coast guard assets.
