RSP spokesperson Manish Jha stated that once Lamichhane exhibited symptoms related to health issues, doctors from the Trauma Center were summoned to the jail for examinations. “He suffers from a dermatological condition. During his time at Bhairahawa Prison, he wasn’t permitted to leave the premises. This could have led to a lack of essential vitamins. The medical team from the Trauma Center has collected his blood samples for analysis, with findings anticipated shortly,” he mentioned.

Heavy rains in northern China have claimed at least 13 lives, with five people still missing, as authorities struggle to manage extreme weather that shows no sign of stopping soon.
State media reported that three bodies were recovered from floodwaters in Ordos, Inner Mongolia, while three others went missing near the banks of the Yellow River, roughly 70 kilometers away.
Monday’s downpour, the first of three consecutive storms forecast in the region, dumped more than 204 mm of rain in less than 24 hours, exceeding August’s monthly average by over double.
Earlier, on Saturday, a flash flood swept through Bayannur’s grasslands after a river burst its banks, killing at least ten people and leaving 13 campers stranded; one was rescued while two remain missing.
Search efforts by rescue crews persist in Ordos, close to Baotou—a key center for rare earth minerals—amid severe rain and floods posing risks to facilities and potentially forcing many from their homes.
Weather experts caution that intense precipitation connected to global warming presents increasing difficulties for officials, straining outdated flood protection systems, resulting in financial damage, and endangering millions of people living in northern China.

August 10, Pakistan — Iran Air has started non-stop flights linking Quetta with the Iranian cities of Zahedan and Mashhad, representing the initial consistent commercial aviation connection between these traditionally important locations. The carrier’s first flight safely arrived at Quetta International Airport on Friday, capturing interest from authorities and passengers. This newly established route aims to provide more ease for travelers and enhance the enduring cultural and economic ties between Pakistan and Iran.
During the airport event, Pakistan’s Envoy to Iran, Mohammad Mudassir Tipu, commended the initiation, referring to it as a “long-held wish” from citizens of both nations. He conveyed his belief that these non-stop flights will enhance commerce, tourism, and cultural interactions between the two countries. As per the envoy, the route holds “significant promise” for strengthening connections and promoting interpersonal relationships that extend past commercial and travel purposes.
The newly launched service will start with weekly operations connecting Quetta and Zahedan, offering a vital transportation choice for people from Balochistan and surrounding areas. Authorities anticipate that this frequency could grow over time as more passengers utilize the route. Additionally, the journey provides a practical link for pilgrims traveling to Mashhad, which is among Iran’s key holy sites. It is projected to generate substantial economic advantages via higher expenditures related to tourism and movement.
At the event, representatives emphasized that the launch occurs during a period when regional aviation connections are growing more significant. Due to the proximity of their locations and common cultural background between Pakistan and Iran, enhancing transportation networks has consistently been considered essential. Officials from both nations expressed their readiness to examine new routes in the near future to enhance mutual collaboration.
Nevertheless, the progress follows closely behind an announcement made by Pakistan’s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, who declared that devotees will not be permitted to journey to Iran or Iraq via land for this year’s Arbaeen pilgrimage because of safety issues. He mentioned that the choice was reached following thorough talks with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Balochistan administration, and intelligence organizations. Although overland movement continues to be limited, the introduction of this aerial route presents a secure and effective option for numerous passengers.
This achievement marks an important step for Iran Air’s direct route from Quetta to Zahedan to Mashhad, which will be crucial in connecting populations along the border. Weekly flights are anticipated to support both spiritual and recreational travel, as well as foster commercial relationships, thereby promoting collaboration between the two adjacent nations.

Justin Timberlake
has recently joined the ranks of top stars affected by Lyme disease, with many believing they have identified the vacation spot where celebrities are contracting the illness.
Lyme disease is an illness transmitted through tick bites, leading to symptoms such as muscle discomfort, mental confusion, inflamed joints, and tiredness.
It may continue for several weeks, although certain individuals might experience issues over many years.
Deer ticks are typically encountered in high grass regions and forested locations.
The singer, 44,
revealed to his followers about his ‘severe’ health struggle through an Instagram update at the start of the month
signaling the conclusion of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour.
He is not the first celebrity to face the illness.
Star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Yolanda Hadid
and her daughter, model
Bella Hadid
were also previously diagnosed.
Singer
Justin Bieber
, actor
Ben Stiller
and comic
Amy Schumer
include other stars who have likewise encountered the issue.
Individuals have observed an upward trend in the number of celebrities affected by the illness, and they’ve discovered a location that many appear to share.
A user from Reddit, as reported
Tyla
, described their belief that all the celebrities have visited the Hamptons.
The Hamptons consist of several coastal communities and serve as a favored getaway for affluent New Yorkers and celebrities.
Situated on the South Fork of eastern Long Island, this region offers numerous beaches where celebrities can escape, along with high-end dining establishments and lounges.
A user on Reddit mentioned: “It’s from the Hamptons. All celebrities who have it have been there.”
I’m fairly certain it’s near the place where he received his DUI.”
“I’m quite confident it’s not far from where he was caught with alcohol.”
“It’s likely close to the location where he had his drunk driving incident.”
“I believe it’s situated near the spot where he got into trouble for drinking and driving.”
“Most probably, it’s around where he faced charges for a DWI.
Another person commented: “They all spent their holidays in the Hamptons, an area known for having many ticks that carry Lyme disease.”
Another confirmed: “This. I have been repeating this to people again and again.”
They often spend much time in the Hamptons, particularly JT, an area recognized for its Lyme disease-carrying ticks.
If you examine areas in the U.S. where Lyme disease is prevalent, the Hamptons appears as if colored in a coloring book.
The idea of the Hamptons might not be entirely far-fetched, since the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published a map illustrating how the illness has progressed across the United States in recent years.
The CDC stated, ‘Since 1995, the number of Lyme disease cases in the United States has increased considerably.’
An image published by health authorities illustrates how the virus was concentrated around the South Fork region, home to the Hamptons, as far back as 1995.
An example from 2010 depicts its spread into New Jersey, Delaware, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maryland, and Massachusetts, along with Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Vermont.
Although the latest map, from 2023, indicates that Lyme disease has become even more prevalent in the New York region.
The Regional Tick-Borne Disease Resource Center, located in Hampton Bays, came into existence in 2014.
It provides advice from experts specializing in Lyme disease and includes various services such as tick extraction and medical care.
They also offer complimentary tick removal kits along with Tick-Borne Disease Reference Handbooks, as stated on the website.
The hotline has gotten over 7,000 calls since it was established.
