An Air India plane heading to San Francisco had to make an emergency landing in Siberia on Tuesday. A man whose mother was on the flight told Insider that they were left with no information and little food. Air India passengers stranded in a remote Siberian town for two days were abandoned by the crew, had to sleep on the floor, and were only given bread and rice, a relative told Insider.

In a letter sent to passengers, Air India apologized for the event and said it will fully refund the fare for the journey as well as provide customers with a travel voucher.

Building a successful climate school that both educates people and scales up technological solutions in its accelerator arm requires thinking beyond the bubble of Silicon Valley. Majumdar's understanding of the importance of a global perspective for the climate school is also personally informed. He was also a professor, did research, and worked at Google for a stint before eventually getting the opportunity to lead the launch of the Stanford climate school. The lessons he learned at ARPA-E are helping form the foundation for the accelerator arm at the Stanford climate school.

Medicii și oficialii locali încă raportează lipsa devastatoarelor de oxigen și a medicamentelor pentru bolnavii de COVID, fapt care ridică întrebări, inclusiv printre donatorii externi, despre destinația reală a ajutoarelor primite. „Este datoria guvernului să ne facă rost de oxigen”, a spus doctorul Gupta de la spitalul Batra din capitala New Dehli. A fost nevoie de șapte zile pentru ca guvernul să creeze un mecanism de distribuire a ajutoarelor către statele indiene, a anunțat ministrul sănătății marți. Guvernul a început să lucreze la proceduri în data de 26 aprilie și a emis Procedura Standard de Operare în data de 2 mai. În această perioadă cât guvernul a lucrat la proceduri, au murit peste 23 000 de indieni.
