Pakistan and Qatar condemned the reported attack on Medina

02 October, 2026

The military coalition supporting Yemen's internationally recognized government has accused Houthi rebels of carrying out a drone attack on a power distribution station in Medina.

According to the BBC's Arabic service, a statement issued by Major General Turki Al-Maliki, spokesperson for the Saudi-led coalition, said that the attack on the power distribution station in Medina took place at 5:11 AM on September 29, 2026.

The coalition stated that it reached this conclusion after investigating the incident and analyzing the wreckage of the drone used in the attack.

The statement noted that while the attack disabled a power transformer, it did not affect power transmission.

The Saudi coalition claimed that the targeted unit was part of the system supplying electricity to the Prophet's Mosque in Medina.

Pakistan's Foreign Office stated that Pakistan strongly condemns the attack carried out by Houthi militias on the power distribution station in Medina on September 29, 2026.

In a statement, the Foreign Office said, "The attack on this civil electricity infrastructure, which supplies power to the Prophet's Mosque, is a grave provocation and a cause for deep concern and anguish for millions of Muslims worldwide."

The statement emphasized that "the sanctity of the Two Holy Mosques and the safety of worshippers and pilgrims must be respected at all times."

Qatar has also condemned the attack.

Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs described it as a serious assault on the sanctity of Islam's holy sites and a clear attempt to inflame Muslim sentiments.

It stated that the attack demonstrated a total disregard for civilian lives and constituted a blatant violation of Saudi Arabia's sovereignty.

It further noted that the act also represented a serious violation of the rules of international law. The ministry stated that such irresponsible actions must be stopped immediately.

Amid a diesel shortage, Trump signaled a halt to exports

US President Donald Trump has stated that he might ask European nations to release a portion of their diesel reserves.

Amid a diesel shortage, Trump is considering banning diesel exports from the US.

Trump's remarks follow a call by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent for Europe to keep such reserves ready and release them if necessary.

Bessent stated that the burden of rising prices should not be placed on American farmers, truck drivers, and businesses.

The US has warned of a potential ban on diesel exports amidst rising prices driven by the conflict involving Iran.

This issue remains significant for American voters ahead of the US midterm elections.

On Thursday, the UK held discussions with European partners regarding the release of diesel reserves in the event of a potential ban.

The US is a key global supplier of diesel, exporting between 1.2 million and 1.5 million barrels daily.

Experts have warned that banning diesel exports could exert further upward pressure on prices in other countries.

They defeated the South Korean team 5-3.

In the final, the Indian trio beat the team comprising Kang Chae-young, Lee Eun-ji, and Oh Ye-jin.

An Indian women's team had never before reached the final of this event at the Asian Games.

Recurve archery is a competitive sport. The recurve bow is a modern version of the traditional bow, which has been in use for thousands of years. The tips at both the top and bottom of the bow curve away from the archer; this is why it is named 'recurve'.

The Delhi Police has denied permission for a protest against Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, which was proposed to be held at Jantar Mantar on October 2.

The protest is being organized by social activists and student leaders.

In view of the planned protest, the police have stepped up security in and around New Delhi. Personnel from Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) have been deployed to handle potential crowds gathering at Jantar Mantar.

The Delhi Police has enhanced security measures in and around New Delhi by invoking Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS).

The Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) for New Delhi wrote on the social media platform X, "Section 163 of the BNSS, 2023, is in force in the New Delhi district to ensure public safety, law and order, and the smooth flow of traffic. Under this provision, unauthorized gatherings, public speeches, slogan-shouting, processions, demonstrations, sit-ins, and other activities specified in the order are prohibited."

Following reports in *The Indian Express* regarding differences of opinion between the Chief Election Commissioner and the two Election Commissioners over the SIR (Special Summary Revision) process, several opposition parties—including the Congress—have alleged that the Election Commission is helping the BJP win elections by manipulating the voter list.
