On September 1, 2025, in Orlando, Florida, USA, the PULSE Nightclub Memorial is the scene of protests and arrests due to the repainting of the crosswalk's rainbow colors to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) required colors after almost a decade of being rainbow-colored.

A crane walks along a paddy field in Rautahat district in Madhesh Province, bordering India, on July 26, 2025. An emergency cabinet meeting on July 23, 2025, declares Nepal's Madhesh Province a disaster crisis zone as severe drought hits the nation's breadbasket. The unusual absence of rain in the Southern plains of Nepal in mid-monsoon pushes the region into a state of crisis. The drought leaves seedbeds dry, and paddy saplings wither, sparking fears of an impending food shortage in Nepal's major rice-producing region. The scarcity of water during mid-monsoon in the Tarai, Nepal's food basket, threatens not only farmers' livelihoods but also the national economy.
