The local government in India’s Puducherry region has launched a vaccination campaign aimed at vaccinating 100 percent of the population. Health workers arrived at the Konnenrikuppam village as part of the campaign to vaccinate locals. However, a man escaped from the workers and climbed a tree to avoid being vaccinated. The health workers failed to vaccinate him after trying to persuade the man to get the jab.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arakchi declared that Tehran will not enter negotiations while Israeli attacks continue, accusing the U.S. of complicity. Speaking ahead of a Geneva meeting with European officials, Arakchi said, “The U.S. is an accomplice to these crimes and we have nothing to talk about with them.” He emphasized that only nuclear and regional issues would be discussed and ruled out talks on Iran’s missile program. Arakchi also stated that Iran’s retaliatory strikes targeted military and economic sites only, not civilian areas.
