This special report focuses on Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, who became the unexpected star of the Gaza Peace Summit in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. The report covers her viral interactions with world leaders, including Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's advice for her to quit smoking and her amused reaction to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's praise for US President Donald Trump. A key moment discussed is when Trump complimented Meloni, saying, 'I'm not allowed to say it because usually it's the end of your political career if you say it: she's a beautiful young woman'. The summit, co-chaired by President Trump and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi, was held to discuss the future of the Middle East and support a ceasefire. The bulletin also notes that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrote the preface for the Indian edition of Meloni's autobiography, "I Am Georgia, My Roots, My Principles".

He has since written to the Home Ministry requesting action against those making the threats, and the Karnataka Home Minister has assured that necessary action will be taken.
Hijab Row Escalates: Kerala Govt Slams Catholic School, Backs Student's Right to Wear Headscarf
The focus is on the hijab controversy at St. Rita's Public School in Ernakulam, where the Kerala government, led by Education Minister V. Sivankutty, has stepped in. Minister V. Sivankutty stated that 'The action taken by the school authorities were unconstitutional'. Following an inquiry by the Deputy Director of Education which found 'serious lapses' by the school, the government has directed the institution to allow the student to wear a headscarf. The directive specifies that the school management can design an appropriate headscarf that matches the school uniform to resolve the matter. This move by the state government overrides an earlier reported settlement mediated by Congress MP Hibi Eden, where the student's family had apparently agreed to comply with the school's existing dress code.
