Bengaluru: Residents in Bengaluru were in for shock when on Wednesday afternoon they heard a mysterious thunderous sound that shook the windows of the homes while some claimed they felt their homes were shaking.

Twitter was full of tweets with residents explaining their experiences with the sound even as they remained clueless about the source of the sound.

The sound was originally heard at Whitefield in Bengaluru but the sound was heard as far as Cooke Town, Vivek Nagar, Ramamurthy Nagar, Hosur Road, HAL, Old Madras Road, Ulsoor, Kundanahalli, Kammanahalli, CV Raman Nagar and HSR Layout in the city.

City police confirmed that it was investigating the source of the sound and Bengaluru Police Commissioner said they have asked the Air Force Control Room to check if this was a flight.

The KSNDMC, however, also confirmed that the loud sound was not related to an earthquake. The sound was reportedly heard for five minutes between 1:20 pm to 1:30 pm.

This comes amid reports of a mysterious 'loud bang' heard earlier today in Belconnen and Gungahlin, in Canberra North.

Riyadh (AP): Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 100th Saudi Pro League goal as Al-Nassr beat Al-Shabab 4-2 to move five points clear at the top of the table.

The 41-year-old forward converted a Sadio Mané cross at the near post with 15 minutes remaining to record the 971st goal of his career on Thursday. It was also his 26th league goal of the season.

“Ronaldo is always dangerous going forward and we saw that again today,” Al-Nassr coach Jorge Jesus said.

João Félix, signed from Chelsea in July, scored three goals for the league leaders.

The win took Al-Nassr to 82 points from 32 games, five ahead of Al-Hilal, which has three matches, one more than Nassr, left to play. Al-Hilal meets Al-Kholood on Friday and faces Nassr on Tuesday in what could be a title decider against its Riyadh rival.

“Now we have a derby match against our rival, which is a difficult encounter,” Jesus said.

“We are fully aware of its importance, and we are dealing with it with complete focus as we know that small details could decide the result.”

Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d'Or winner, has yet to secure a major trophy in Saudi Arabia since signing with Al-Nassr in December 2022.
