Bengaluru: A shocking incident unfolded at a private school in Srirampura, where a class 10 student, Aadarsh (name changed), was brutally thrashed by four of his classmates, leaving him with two broken teeth and temporary partial loss of vision. The incident occurred on Thursday after Aadarsh spoke to a girl in his class regarding some notes. It is reported that one of the attackers had feelings for the girl.

According to Aadarsh's mother, who filed a complaint with the police, the altercation took place at around 3.45 pm on July 27, while Aadarsh was returning home after his class. Earlier in the day, he had requested the girl for her notes, and during a brief conversation, he borrowed the notes and returned to his seat.

Unfortunately, Himanshu (name changed), a classmate who observed the exchange, took offense and confronted Aadarsh during the physical training period. Later, after school hours, Himanshu and three other boys intercepted Aadarsh when he was just four buildings away from the school. They proceeded to attack him, kicking and punching him in the face repeatedly, resulting in the breakage of two of his upper teeth and other injuries.

Aadarsh's distraught mother stated that her son's vision has been temporarily affected due to the injuries, and doctors have advised him to rest for nearly a month while receiving treatment. The school management has assured the family that they will take necessary action, including summoning the parents of the four boys involved.

The incident has led to a case being booked against the four boys under the Juvenile Justice Act. Since the attackers are students, they will be questioned by child welfare officials as part of the investigation.

Budapest/Washington: US Vice President J D Vance has said that Lebanon was never included in the ceasefire understanding with Iran, describing the confusion as a “legitimate misunderstanding”.

Speaking to reporters before departing from Hungary, Vance said, “I think the Iranians thought that the ceasefire included Lebanon and it just didn’t. We never made that promise.”

He stressed that the United States had not included Lebanon in the scope of the ceasefire at any stage.

His remarks come amid continued Israeli strikes in Lebanon, where more than 200 people were reported killed, even as ceasefire talks between Iran and the US move forward.

Vance said Israel had “offered … to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon because they want to make sure that our negotiation is successful”.

He warned that if Iran allows the situation in Lebanon to affect the negotiations, it could derail the talks.

“If Iran wants to let this negotiation fall apart in a conflict where they were getting hammered over Lebanon, which has nothing to do with them and which the United States never once said was part of the ceasefire, that’s ultimately their choice,” he said.
