Bengaluru(PTI): Three alleged illegal immigrant Bangladesh nationals have been arrested at the Kempegowda International Airport here and remanded to judicial custody, police said on Friday.

Shayan Das (aged 25), Nikhilesh Das (34) and Amin Mohammed Chowdhury (27) were detained by the immigration officials a week ago upon suspicion.

On verification, it was revealed that they were natives of the neighbouring country and had sneaked into India through the porous border in 2013.

The trio lived in West Bengal for some years during which they obtained necessary identity cards, including Aadhaar number and Indian passport.

After they came to Bengaluru, they worked in various companies.

When KIA officials grew suspicious and questioned them, they confessed that they were Bangladeshis who had come to India illegally, police added.

DEIR AL-BALAH: Israeli air raids hit northern and southern Gaza on Wednesday, killing at least of 70 individuals, including almost two dozen children, according to hospitals and health officials. The raids carried out after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statement a day earlier that there will be no pause to the army campaign, asserting that Israel's offensive would endure until the militant group is utterly dismantled.

At least 50 individuals, 22 of them children, died in raids around the Jabaliya area in northern Gaza, hospitals and Gaza's Health Ministry reported. In Jabaliya, rescue workers used hand tools and the light of cellphones to dig through rubble and retrieve the bodies of children trapped beneath collapsed concrete.

Israel’s military declined to comment on the latest strikes but had issued warnings to Jabaliya residents late Tuesday, urging them to evacuate due to the alleged presence of militant infrastructure, including rocket launchers.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused any pause in military operations in Gaza, stating that the offensive will persist until Hamas is fully dismantled. Netanyahu, in remarks released by his office Tuesday, stated that Israeli forces were preparing for a major escalation in Gaza, vowing they would advance "with great strength to complete the mission... It means destroying Hamas."
