 Pakistan says 29 militants killed in cross-border strikes near Afghanistan border  Pakistani security forces conducted a ground operation along the Pakistan-Afghanistan border on Sunday, followed by targeted “calibrated strikes” on suspected militant hideouts, killing 29 fighters, according to officials. Authorities said the operation was carried out in response to a series of militant attacks across the country. There was no immediate reaction from Afghan authorities. In recent years, Pakistan has faced a rise in militant violence targeting police and security personnel, with officials frequently blaming the Pakistani Taliban, known as Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), and allied groups. The latest action came a day after militants attacked the regional headquarters of paramilitary Rangers in Karachi, killing three soldiers. Security forces later killed three attackers and detained another suspect, who was identified by the military as an injured Afghan national. A breakaway ...

 Governor Soludo Declares State of Emergency on Erosion, Illegal Sand Mining


By Chisom Okpala


Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, has declared a state of emergency on erosion and illegal sand mining across the state, calling on residents to abandon practices that endanger the environment and worsen flooding.


The governor made the declaration during the second-quarter meeting of the Anambra State Traditional Rulers' Council held at the Government House, Awka, recently.


Gov. Soludo described erosion and flooding as major environmental challenges confronting the state, noting that a significant proportion of the damage is caused by human activities.


He urged communities and residents to ensure proper channeling of floodwater, desist from indiscriminate dumping of refuse and avoid building on natural waterways, warning that such practices obstruct drainage channels and contribute to devastating floods.


The governor also warned against illegal sand mining, directing individuals and companies involved in mining activities to obtain the necessary approvals from the State Ministry of Environment or face appropriate sanctions.


Speaking on the recent Supreme Court judgment abolishing autonomous communities in Anambra State, Gov. Soludo described the ruling as a step towards strengthening the traditional institution, promoting greater unity among communities.


Earlier, the Chairman of the Anambra State Traditional Rulers' Council and Traditional Ruler of Obosi Kingdom, Igwe Chidubem Iweka, commended Gov. Soludo for his achievements in infrastructure development and social welfare, noting that his administration's projects have transformed communities and improved the quality of life of residents across the state.


Igwe Iweka  expressed appreciation to the governor for prioritising the welfare of traditional rulers in Anambra State.


Speaking with journalists after the meeting, the Commissioner for Local Government and Community Affairs, Barr. Vin Ezeaka, urged traditional rulers and Presidents-General of various communities to ensure strict compliance with the governor's environmental directives.


He emphasised the importance of proper channeling of water into designated drainage systems and the regular desilting of drains to minimise flooding.


Barr. Ezeaka warned that defaulters would face stiff sanctions, including fines, adding that environmental enforcement officers had been deployed across the state to ensure full compliance with the government's directives.


The meeting was attended by traditional rulers from across the state, the Commissioner for Information, Dr. Law Mefor, the Supervising Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Local Government and Community Affairs, Dr. Nwabufo Nwankwo, and other government officials.
