Three Indian Air Force officers have been made redundant for accidentally firing a missile into Pakistan

The Indian Government says there were no casualties after its air force misfired a missile into Pakistan earlier this year.

Three personnel were fired for the incident in which a ‘technical malfunction’ caused the weapon to cross the border.

“A court of inquiry, set up to establish the facts of the case, including fixing responsibility for the incident, found that deviation from the standard operating procedures by three officers led to the accidental firing of the missile.”

Authorities in Pakistan believe the missile was unarmed and crashed nearly 500 kilometres from the nation’s capital, Islamabad.

After the incident, India’s Defence Minister said the missile system was safe and reliable.

“Moreover, our safety procedures and protocols are of the highest order and are reviewed from time to time,” Rajnath Singh said.

The weapon was reportedly a Brahmos missile, which is known for being the fastest supersonic cruise missile in the world.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
