6. Putin`s nuclear threat brings world closer to `Armageddon`, says Biden
• Russian President Vladimir Putin`s threat to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine has brought the world closer to `Armageddon` than at any time since the Cold-War Cuban Missile Crisis, US President Joe Biden said.
• Putin celebrated his 70th birthday to fawning praise from some officials. But with his seven-month invasion unravelling, public events appeared sparse, acontrast to just a week ago, when he staged a huge concert on Red Square to proclaim the annexation of nearly a fifth of Ukrainian land.
• Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Kyiv`s forces were swiftly recapturing more territory, including more than 500sq-km in the south where they burst through a second major front this week. Russia`s failings on the battlefield have brought unusual public recrimination from Kremlin allies, with one Russian-installed leader in occupied Ukrainian territory going so far as to suggest Putin`s defence minister should have shot himself
7. European rights advocates share peace Nobel
• A trio of human rights watchdogs from Belarus, Russia and Ukraine won the Nobel Peace Prize on October 7, 2022, a highly symbolic choice of laureates drawn from three nations at the centre of the war in Ukraine.
• The honour went to detained activist Ales Bialiatski of Belarus, Russian rights group Memorial and Ukraine`s Center for Civil Liberties, which is recording the toll of the conflict on the nation.
• `They have made an outstanding effort to document war crimes, human right abuses and the abuse of power,` the head of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Berit Reiss-Andersen, told reporters
8. Scientists plan to grow plants on Moon
• Australian scientists are trying to grow plants on the Moon by 2025 in a mission unveiled on October 7, 2022 that they said could help pave the way for a future colony.
• Plant biologist Brett Williams, from the Queensland University of Technology, said seeds would be carried by the Beresheet 2 spacecraft a private Israeli Moon mission.
• They would be watered inside the sealed chamber after landing and monitored for signs of germination and growth
9. Rizwan-inspired Pakistan beat BD in T20 tri-series opener
• Mohammad Rizwan underlined why he will be a key weapon for Pakistan at the Twenty20 World Cup, top-scoring in a 21-run win over Bangladesh in Christchurch on October 7, 2022.
• Right-handed Rizwan maintained his rich vein of form with an unbeaten 78 as Pakistan posted 167-5, before restricting their opponents to 146-8.
• It was the opening match of a week-long tournament, which also includes hosts New Zealand. All three teams are using it to prepare for the T20 World Cup in Australia
10. Nida, Nashra help Pakistan stun India in Women`s Asia Cup
• Veteran Nida Dar`s impressive all-round show backed by a three-wicket burst from Nashra Sandhu helped Pakistan shock arch-rivals India by 13 runs in the Women`s Asia Cup T20 at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on October 7, 2022.
• India batted poorly to be dismissed for 124 in 19.4 overs after Pakistan totaled a modest 137 for six off the stipulated overs on winning the toss.
• At 65 for five, India were in all sorts of trouble with majority of the batters including star player Smriti Mandhana (17 off 19) throwing their wickets away
