Now is the news. I'm Tan Lu. Chinese President Xi Jinping has arrived in New Delhi for the 18th Brick Summit in India. The trip is at the invitation of the Indian Prime Minister. The Chinese foreign ministry has described the BRICS as the most important platform for solidarity and cooperation among emerging markets and developing countries. Meanwhile, leaders from BRICS business and diplomatic circles have embraced China's vision for the group. One of China's significant contribution has been encouraging BRICS to move beyond traditional economic discussions and develop a broader agenda. I find China's five proposed directions. BRICS for peace, innovation, redevelopment, justice and people to people, elections, particularly valuable. China is a leading force in the backbone of BRICS cooperation. President Xi Jinping has put forward a series of initiatives and visions. And to my mind, the most important of them all is the vision of a community with a shared

future for humanity. China's sudden airlines says it is resuming regular passenger flights between Guangzhou and New Delhi, starting September 21st.

The US ambassador to Canada stripped to a town on the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks has drawn criticism from Canadians amid trade tensions between the North American neighbors.

Iranian President Masood Pasezkayana says the Iranian people were not surrender to US economic pressure.

Pasezkayan accuses Washington of trying to force Iran to capitulate by worsening livelihood problems and restricting access to facilities. He condemns the US naval blockade and economic war against Iran, saying Tehran were not bowed to American bullying. The Houthi group has seized Yemen's entire Western coast as it pushes the offensive beyond the strategic Babel Mandaps straight and forces the government forces to retreat. The Houthis took control of the strategically important Mayan island on Friday. It lies at the heart of the Babel Mandaps straight and divides the narrow waterway into two shipping channels. He has al-Fan date reports from Sena. It is developers from here in Sena, the statement, when Sena, as military spokesman YAHYEH has already given their account of what's been happening along Yemen's Western coast since September 3. And basically the Sena side is describing this as much larger military operation rather than just fighting around a few towns.

They said their forces have pushed Saudi-backed forces out of six districts across the Chais and Hudaida, Caffreen and area for around 5,400 square kilometers. Saudi Arabia has reported injuries and damage after a drone attack on its east-west pipeline from Iraq. The Saudi Foreign Ministry said the kingdom has refrained from responding at the request of the Iraqi Prime Minister. The Ministry said move was intended to give the Iraqi government an opportunity to take measures to prevent attacks launched from Iraqi territory against the Saudi Arabia. Iraq said it has ordered any investigation. Lebanese parliament's beacon, Nabi Berry, says the US-Burkid framework agreement between Lebanon and Israel has collapsed warning that Israel could occupy additional Lebanese territory. Berry said he was not optimistic about the breakthrough in the coming days. The remarks came amid continued tensions along the border.
