Participants in a solidarity demonstration supporting protests in Iran gather in the Main Market Square on January 15, 2026, in Krakow, Poland. Since December 28, 2025, large-scale protests occur across the Islamic Republic of Iran against the regime and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has been in power since 1989. The unrest begins with a strike by shopkeepers in Tehran's bazaars. Initially driven by severe economic hardship, years of high inflation, and unemployment, the protests gradually draw in additional social groups and evolve into nationwide demonstrations against the regime. The ayatollahs respond with a violent crackdown. It is estimated that at least 2,500 protesters are killed, with some sources reporting figures as high as several thousand. Thousands more are imprisoned, and the government cuts off internet access nationwide, severely hampering organization and access to information. The United States issues statements warning of a possible military intervention. These protests are widely regarded as among the largest since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Traditionally falling on the ninth day of the waxing moon in the Nepali month of Asoj according to the lunar calendar, Maha Nawami is marked in the month of October this year. Devotees perform special rituals in honor of Goddess Durga, offering jamara--germinated barley seeds sown on the festival's first day--at various temples and shrines. Additional offerings are also made as part of the celebrations. On Maha Ashtami night, a traditional sacrifice of 54 goats and 54 cows takes place at the main square. It is also on this night that the Kalratri Puja is performed using tantric rituals, symbolizing a prayer for power to govern the state.

Members of a local band are playing traditional musical instruments, entertaining the crowd during the mass celebration of the festival of Holi, the festival of colors, in Kathmandu Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 24, 2024. Thousands of locals and tourists have gathered at the ancient palace courtyard on Sunday to mark the festival with fervor and gaiety. The festival, also known as the Spring festival, signifies the arrival of spring and the harvest season. Celebrated for two days in the Hills and Terai, people are coming out of their homes, smearing colors on each other's faces, and exchanging greetings. According to Hindu mythology, demon king Hiranyakashyapu, who was unhappy with his son Prahlad for his wholehearted devotion to the God Vishnu, ordered his sister Holika to kill Prahlad. Following her brother's instructions, Holika, who had a boon from the gods that fire would not harm her, sat on fire with Prahlad on her lap but was burnt to death while Prahlad remained unhurt due to the blessing of God Vishnu. From then onwards, the festival, also known as Holi, is celebrated by smearing color with enjoyment. There is also a saying that Lord Vishnu had told Holika that the boon she had received would be meaningless if it was misused.

In Sao Paulo, Brazil, on January 25, 2024, Helio Scheidegger, a city councilman for Rio Novo do Sul in Espirito Santo, who was elected in 2020 during Jair Bolsonaro's government, is questioning the electronic voting process that led to the former president's defeat two years ago. ''We have the benefit of the doubt because there was no transparency; why didn't they open the source code of the voting machines?'' the 59-year-old asks. Despite his concerns, the source code opening ceremony took place in 2021, and the device remained available for oversight bodies throughout that year, a practice that was repeated for the 2024 elections. After traveling for 12 hours to Sao Paulo, the councilman is criticizing what he refers to as the aberration of illegal arrests following the events on January 8. He is questioning the labeling of the incident as a coup without weapons and terrorism, and asserts, ''History will still show that the invasion of the Three Powers Square was orchestrated by the left.''

A view of the city amid air pollution in Jakarta, Indonesia, June 27, 2023. In recent weeks, Jakarta has crept into the top of a list of cities with the worst air quality. According to metrics gauged by Swiss climate technology company IQAir, Jakarta recorded an Air Quality Index (AQI) score of 157, placing it squarely in the ''unhealthy'' category. Earlier this month, Jakarta's air was reported to consist of 67 micrograms per cubic meter (ug/m3) of PM 2.5 pollutants: a class of fine breathable matter that is often made out to be the cause of various respiratory diseases, which was 13.4 times higher than the level the World Health Organization (WHO) considers safe. The report ranked Jakarta among the top three of 61 cities observed worldwide for premature deaths related to such pollution, with more than 1,500 deaths blamed on coal power in 2019. That number can double to more than 3,000 if new plants are operational by 2030.
