The external affairs ministry has requested diplomatic missions in India to resume visa processing services “in view of lifting of the Covid lockdown”. Govt is considering a calibrated resumption of international flight from next month. MEA wrote to diplomatic missions on June 9, “This ministry is receiving a number of requests from Indian nationals/trade bodies/other organisations regarding difficulties being faced by bona fide Indian nationals in obtaining visas of foreign countries due to continued suspension of such services by some diplomatic missions in India… Several of them intend to travel to foreign countries for various reasons including emergency/compelling reasons, to rejoin family members residing abroad, resumption of education.”

Iran Claims Indigenous Air Defence Successfully Targeted F-35 Stealth Fighter | Watch

Iran has claimed, through a military source cited by Tasnim News Agency, that its indigenous air defence systems successfully targeted an American F-35 stealth fighter. The source said the US and Israel were "stunned and bewildered" by an unknown, domestically-built Iranian system and that Iran has been deliberately concealing military technologies throughout the conflict. The Pentagon and CENTCOM have not confirmed or denied any F-35 engagement. A fighter jet did make an emergency landing at a US base in the region. If the claim is true, it is the most significant air combat development of the 21st century. If false, Iran is still winning the information war and knows it.
