Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has warned the West of the danger of trying to "fight to victory with a nuclear power" like Russia and told the United Nations that it was senseless to ignore alternatives to Ukraine's peace proposals.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has reportedly been moved to a safe and secure location after Israel confirmed on Saturday that it has eliminated Hezbollah chief Hasan Nasrallah in airstrikes conducted by its fighter jets in the Daha area of Beirut late Friday.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) on Saturday announced that Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah has been eliminated following a deadly strike on the headquarters of the Lebanese militant group in the southern suburbs of Beirut late Friday.

India has warned Pakistan that cross-border terrorism against India will "inevitably invite consequences" and ruled out any agreement while the military-run government indulges in terrorism.

"The IAF (Israeli Air Force) struck and eliminated the terrorist Muhammad Ali Ismail, the commander of Hezbollah's missile unit in southern Lebanon, and his deputy, the terrorist Hussein Ahmad Ismail," the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in the early hours of Saturday.

A minor dispute between two families over sowing of crops has turned into massive sectarian tribal clashes, leaving at least 46 dead and more than 80 injured within a span of eight days in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province's Kurram tribal district bordering Afghanistan. 

While most of the leaders speaking at the General Assembly’s high-level meeting have called for reforming the Security Council, three countries, specifically, said that India should get a permanent seat.
