Nepal and China both warned on Thursday of fresh risks of flooding in the Himalayas as two lakes that have developed on either side of their border threaten to burst in a region still grappling with this week’s catastrophic flood. Nepal’s disaster authority issued a notice warning that a lake formed by debris blocking a river at the flood site is rising and at risk of bursting, urging residents of lower banks, passengers and rescuers to stay away from river banks and risky areas. China warned that 3 million cubic meters of water—about 1,200 Olympic swimming pools—are expected to flow into an already dammed lake on its side of the border over the next three days, creating a high risk of a breach, with peak flow expected around September 1.

Nepal Floods: Nepal has issued an urgent warning after a dam upstream on the Tibetan side was reportedly breached, raising fears of another dangerous flood surge in the region. Authorities have urged security personnel, rescue workers and members of the public involved in relief operations to remain alert and immediately move to safer, higher ground. The fresh warning comes just days after a devastating glacial collapse triggered deadly flooding across parts of Nepal, causing widespread destruction and disrupting rescue and relief operations.
As concerns grow over rising water levels and possible additional flooding, authorities are closely monitoring the situation along vulnerable river systems and affected communities. Rescue teams are facing difficult conditions as they continue search and relief efforts in flood-hit areas.

Heavy rain is forecast at the site of the China-Nepal border disaster, raising fears of further flooding that could trigger a second catastrophe. Authorities are monitoring the levels of a lake that had formed after the flash floods that is at risk of bursting its banks. Experts say that while climate change cannot be singled out as the direct cause of the disaster, such events will not be the last. They are calling for stepped up intergovernmental coordination.

China is significantly increasing maritime pressure around Taiwan, with a record number of Chinese vessels detected near the island as Taipei moves to strengthen its defenses.
Taiwan’s Coast Guard says 244 Chinese vessels were detected around the main island in July, averaging nearly eight ships per day. The figure represents a sharp increase from 55 vessels in June and 30 in May.
The surge has raised concerns among Taiwanese officials and analysts over whether China’s growing maritime presence could be more than a show of strength, including possible preparations for undersea warfare, maritime pressure or a future blockade.
Another major concern is China’s military-civil fusion strategy, under which civilian maritime assets can potentially be requisitioned for national defense purposes. Analysts warn that commercial vessels could provide additional transport capacity during a potential military operation.
Meanwhile, Taiwan is strengthening its own defenses. The island’s opposition-controlled parliament rejected a proposed $6.6 billion special drone budget, instead approving approximately $1.26 billion annually for military drones, amounting to around $7.6 billion over six years through regular budgets.
Taiwan has also conducted a major military exercise involving more than 5,000 reservists across two brigades, highlighting Taipei’s growing focus on preparing for potential threats.
The tensions stem from Beijing’s claim that Taiwan is part of China and its refusal to rule out the use of force to take control of the self-governed island. Taiwan rejects Beijing’s sovereignty claims and maintains that the People’s Republic of China has never governed Taiwan.

A massive mudslide and flash flood struck the Gyirong Port area along the China-Nepal border on Wednesday, leaving scores missing and over a thousand missing across both sides of the divide. The US Geological Survey (USGS) confirmed that a catastrophic ice-rock avalanche, which originally registered as a tectonic earthquake, turned into a debris flow and mudslide, sweeping down the river valley and unleashing devastating floodwaters.

Taking place during the ‘Eagles of Civilization 2026’ joint air exercise in Egypt, this rare tactical drills phase gave People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) pilots direct, real-world data and flying experience against a premier Western-origin 4.5-generation platform.

The Trump administration has launched “Operation Economic Outcast,” a sweeping campaign designed to squeeze Iran’s financial lifelines and pressure countries doing business with Tehran. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has warned that countries could face sanctions if they continue economic ties with Iran. More than 60 Iran-linked individuals and entities have already been targeted, while Washington is threatening broader secondary sanctions.
But the strategy faces a major obstacle: China, Iran’s biggest oil customer. Beijing has warned it could retaliate against U.S. measures targeting Chinese companies involved in Iranian trade.

The anti-corruption campaign has been President Xi Jinping’s signature policy since he rose to power in the autumn of 2012. Xi has linked fighting corruption to the Communist Party’s ability to stay in power and, more than a decade on, the campaign continues apace.
The South China Morning Post took a deep dive into the cases of the top officials, known as “tigers”, brought down between 2013 and 2025 to see what those investigations could tell us about the crusade. Most of these officials were at least vice-ministers and all were investigated by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) – China’s top anti-corruption watchdog.

China’s ambitious Chang’e 7 mission to explore the Moon’s south pole and search for water ice has been postponed from its expected launch window. The robotic mission is designed to investigate one of the most scientifically valuable regions on the lunar surface, including areas near Shackleton Crater. With no confirmed new launch date, speculation is growing over when China will resume its latest lunar exploration push. The mission also highlights the intensifying global race to understand and eventually use frozen water believed to exist inside permanently shadowed lunar craters. What could Chang’e 7 discover beneath the Moon’s unexplored south pole?

China has unexpectedly delayed the launch of its Chang’e-7 lunar mission, a key part of Beijing’s plan to put astronauts on the Moon before 2030. The spacecraft was expected to begin its journey to the Moon’s south pole in search of water ice, but officials now say the mission does not meet launch conditions. The postponement comes less than two weeks after a Long March rocket suffered a rare failure, raising fresh questions about China’s lunar timeline and its growing space ambitions.
