Not exactly politics but Karachi, the capital of Pakistan, is getting destroyed by flooding from torrential rains right now.

Ya, my co-workers there are having electricity/internet issues (on top of fairly significant COVID) and our deadlines are slipping all over the place.

Thank goodness. This is the guy who has banned manga and after the 2011 tsunami said, "Hopefully this will wash away the people's greed."

Pretty sure you're thinking about Ishihara, at least he said the same back then, rubbed a lot of people from over there the wrong way. Not sure if Abe may have jumped on the bandwagon at the time.

Damn, your right. My bad. He is a member of the far right-wing nationalist group Nippon Kaigi just like Ishihara was though. They have some really racist and messed up views. I read recently his approval ratting was very low after a series of scandals. That's why I decided to post that.

Renewed fighting between Armenia and Azerbaijan on Sunday threatened to ignite a three-decade-old conflict over the breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh, as both sides blamed each other for the crisis.

It was the worst outbreak of fighting in the region since 2016, when four days of clashes left 200 dead. Both sides declared martial law as tensions rapidly escalated.

At least one Azerbaijani helicopter was shot down Sunday, and Armenia announced the full mobilization of its military as the situation threatened to spiral out of control.

Armenia claimed to have destroyed two helicopters, three drones and three tanks, saying this was in response to Azerbaijani aggression.

Azerbaijani officials said they were mounting a counteroffensive and claimed that only one helicopter had been shot down, with no loss of life. Azerbaijan said it had destroyed 12 Armenian air defense systems.
