#WATCH | Delhi: Union Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas, Hardeep Singh Puri, says, "... 20% of global energy used to come from the Strait of Hormuz. 85% of our imports of crude, a large percentage used to come from there. But more importantly, our LPG, the cylinder gas, which you use in kitchens, about 60% used to come from the Strait of Hormuz. Now we had to make arrangements. I'm amazed at what we were able to do. Our domestic production of LPG prior to the crisis was 35,000 or 36,000 metric tons per day. We ramped up our domestic production from 36,000 to 54,000 metric tons. This by itself is a mind-boggling thing... Tell me any one country where prices have remained the same, and there has been no shortage anywhere in spite of the best efforts of some people to try to black market and raise false rumours. If I looked at some statistics, petrol consumption has gone up by 6%. In a crisis, there'd been no dry outs. Every petrol pump in the country has had petrol and diesel. LPG supply is more than enough. We have done some good things. We have ramped up LPG production. We brought consumption down a little..."

How many of you, were aware about it?.. 😉 @samartoor3086 @ajaykraina

"While commercial satellite imagery released by Western companies extensively documented damage at Pakistani military installations, the same companies, Maxar, now renamed Vantor, and Planet Labs, released no imagery of the Indian military sites allegedly struck by Pakistan during or after the conflict. Meanwhile, Pakistani losses were subjected to open-source scrutiny, while Indian losses were not. Both readings of the conflict contain elements of truth. Yet, neither is complete. The gap between the two narratives is not merely rhetorical, say analysts. It has consequences for how honestly each side is absorbing what the conflict actually revealed, and how seriously the task of addressing genuine vulnerabilities is being taken." @abidhussayn reports: aljazeera.com/news/2026/5/10…
