Fire Reported Aboard U.S. Navy Destroyer USS Higgins Near Chinese Territory In Indo-Pacific

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has stirred a fresh debate by saying he would urge King Charles III to return the Kohinoor diamond to India if given a private opportunity. The remark came ahead of their meeting during a wreath-laying ceremony marking the anniversary of the September 11 attacks in New York.The Kohinoor diamond, currently part of the British Crown Jewels and displayed at the Tower of London, has long been a subject of dispute, with India, Pakistan, and Iran laying claim to it. Mamdani’s statement has once again brought the issue of colonial legacy and restitution into the global spotlight.Despite the strong remark, Mamdani maintained a neutral tone at the 9/11 memorial event, emphasizing that the focus remained on honoring the victims of the 2001 terror attacks. King Charles III and Queen Camilla paid tribute by laying flowers and observing a moment of silence at Ground Zero.
