PM Modi returned to New Delhi this morning after canceling his Saudi Arabia trip late at night after the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir.

According to the news, as a stern signal to Pakistan, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's plane did not use Pakistan's airspace while returning from Saudi Arabia to New Delhi and instead landed in India from Gujarat over the Arabian Sea, while PM Modi's plane passed through Pakistan's airspace while going to Saudi Arabia.

It is noteworthy that 27 people were killed and more than 20 people were injured in a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir yesterday. This attack took place when a large number of tourists were present in the Basran Valley.

This is the biggest attack in Jammu and Kashmir since the Pulwama attack on February 14, 2019, for which the Resistance Front, a local branch of the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, has claimed responsibility.

Alberta premier says province is looking to entice private-sector pipeline builder

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says her government is working to entice a private-sector player to build a crude pipeline to coastal waters. She urged attendees at the Global Energy Show to keep up the pressure on Ottawa to help speed along such a nation-building project. Smith has been enthusiastic about reviving a plan to ship oilsands crude to Prince Rupert on the northern B.C. coast for export to Asia. But she says that's never going to happen as long as there's a tanker ban in place on the West Coast. Smith is also keen on accessing global markets via a pipeline to the Port of Churchill i
