🇮🇳 150 feared dead as glacier burst Feb 7, 2021 More than 100 people were reported missing after a glacier broke off and caused a flood that damaged a power plant in northern India. The military was deployed to look for survivors. A glacier broke off in the Chamoli district, causing a massive flood in the Dhauliganga River and damaging a nearby power plant. videos www.rt.com/news/514845-india-glacier-massive-floodUS Navy sends warship to India Apr 9, 2021 US Navy sends warship to India’s exclusive economic zone without permission, to challenge New Delhi's excessive maritime claims. The US Navy has said it deliberately refrained from asking India’s consent for a freedom of navigation patrol because New Delhi’s demands to do so contravene international law. A guided missile destroyer, the USS John Paul Jones asserted navigational rights and freedoms approximately 130 nautical miles west of the Lakshadweep Islands, inside India's exclusive economic zone [EEZ]. #India believes it has the right to demand permission in line with the UN Convention of the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) it joined in 1995. The US, however, never signed that convention, and currently challenges excessive maritime claims by more than a dozen countries www.rt.com/news/520619-us-navy-india-patrol
