Today's headlines and in-depth analysis from around the world.
We ran the same story through AllSides, Ground News, and Albis. AllSides showed left vs right. Ground News showed who's ignoring it. Albis showed that two different wars are being reported under the same headline.

Oil hit $112/barrel but Indian petrol pumps haven't moved. OMCs are bleeding ₹15/litre. Four state elections explain why — and 4 billion people have no idea.
The US curtailed 20M MWh of clean energy in 2024 — wasted solar and wind. MIT's Fourth Power thermal battery stores excess power at 2,400°C and targets $25/kWh grid storage.
Desalination plants in Iran and Bahrain have already been struck. With 99% of Qatar's drinking water and 90% of Kuwait's coming from these facilities, the Iran war's least-covered escalation could threaten 100 million people's access to clean water.

MBFC rates 3,900+ outlets on a left-right scale. Albis measures how the same story changes across world regions. Here's what each tool actually shows you — and what it misses.
Japan released 80 million barrels from strategic reserves — its largest ever. With 95% of oil from the Middle East and Hormuz closed, the world's fourth-largest economy is burning through its buffer.
Nvidia unveiled its Vera Rubin Space-1 module for orbital AI data centers at GTC 2026. SpaceX filed for 1 million satellites, Google launched Project Suncatcher — but Gartner calls it 'peak insanity.'
