कोच्चि-अबुधाबी प्लेन का फ्यूल 36 हजार फीट पर कम हुआ:50 मिनट बाद मोड़ना पड़ा, कोच्चि में इमरजेंसी लैंडिंग; वजन भी ज्यादा था
SUMMARY
**कोच्चि से अबुधाबी जा रही एक फ्लाइट को उड़ान भरने के करीब 50 मिनट बाद इमरजेंसी लैंडिंग करनी पड़ी। विमान जब 36 हजार फीट की ऊंचाई पर था, तभी पायलटों ने देखा कि फ्यूल तेजी से कम हो रहा है। इसके अलावा विमान का वजन भी सामान्य से अधिक था, जिससे ईंधन की खपत बढ़ गई। सुरक्षा को ध्यान में रखते हुए पायलट ने तुरंत विमान वापस मोड़ने का फैसला लिया और कोच्चि एयरपोर्ट पर इमरजेंसी लैंडिंग कराई गई। सभी यात्री सुरक्षित हैं। जांच शुरू कर दी गई है।**

Can dogs sniff cancer? AI joins the hunt in India
SUMMARY
Researchers in India are combining dogs' extraordinary sense of smell with artificial intelligence to detect cancer early. Dogs can sniff volatile organic compounds released by cancer cells in breath, urine, or blood samples. Indian scientists are training dogs alongside AI algorithms to analyze scent patterns, improving diagnostic accuracy. This low-cost, non-invasive approach could revolutionize cancer screening in rural areas with limited medical infrastructure. Early trials show promising results in detecting lung, breast, and oral cancers, potentially saving thousands of lives through early intervention.
