Submerged Stone Age Settlement Discovered Off Danish Coast
Archaeologists have discovered a submerged Stone Age settlement from over 8,500 years ago in Denmark’s Bay of Aarhus, according to a report in AP. Divers descended about 8 meters below the surface to collect evidence from the coastal settlement, which was swallowed by rising sea levels following the last ice age. The gradual submergence created an anaerobic environment that preserved the site ‘like a time capsule,’ protecting organic materials and structures from decay.
Floods Kill 32 In Indian-Controlled Kashmir, Displace 150,000 In Pakistan
Intense monsoon rains across parts of India and Pakistan have caused severe flooding, leaving at least 32 people dead in Indian-controlled Kashmir’s Jammu region, AP said in a report. Many people are also reported missing following a landslide that struck a Hindu pilgrimage route in the area. In neighboring Pakistan, torrential rains in the eastern Punjab province have displaced over 150,000 people, prompting authorities to request army assistance for rescue and relief operations.
Sovereign Citizen Ideology In Focus After Australian Police Killing
A police manhunt in Australia for Dezi Freeman, a man wanted for the alleged killing of police officers, has brought the ‘sovereign citizen’ movement into sharp focus, BBC says in a report. This anti-government extremist ideology involves adherents believing they are not subject to national laws, taxes, or court orders. The incident underscores the significant risks law enforcement face when encountering individuals who reject state authority and has triggered increased scrutiny of such groups. The case is expected to pose considerable challenges to the Australian judicial system and has raised broader concerns about public safety and the potential for radical conspiracy theories to escalate into real-world violence, impacting social and political stability.
