10.05.2025 โ‡ข Day of Nuclear Shadows and Diplomatic Dawn
โŒจThe India-Pakistan military conflict escalated dramatically in the early morning with both countries conducting strikes against military targets. Pakistan convened an emergency meeting regarding nuclear weapons management, raising global alarm. By midday, a surprising diplomatic breakthrough occurred when Trump announced both nations had agreed to an immediate ceasefire, with military leaders scheduled to meet on May 12.

Meanwhile, Japan initiated a public-private alliance to support Japanese companies' expansion into Africa, seemingly positioned as a counter to China's influence in the resource-rich region. The program will be officially announced at an economic conference in Ivory Coast on May 12.

Domestic concerns continued with reports that 39% of Japanese residents experience loneliness despite last year's isolation prevention law. The Emperor Emeritus was discharged from hospital with a diagnosis of asymptomatic myocardial ischemia, returning to his residence after four days.
