S-400 Missiles Delivery Starts; A Major Boost For India

As per some official sources, Russia has started the delivery of the S-400 missile system to India for deployment, which will prove to be a significant boost for India's air defence sector. India had signed the deal with Russia in 2018 and bought the system for US$ 5 billion. However, the deal became contentious after threats of US sanctions over countries engaging in defence deals with Russia. The Russian news agency Sputnik reported: "Russia has started delivering the S-400 Triumf surface-to-air missile systems to India, the deliveries are going as planned," Though there was no official statement from the Indian side, sources have said that the deliveries have already begun through sea and air routes. With a range of around 400 km and capable of protecting its air defence bubble from missiles, cruise missiles, rockets and even aircraft, S-400 is the most advanced air-defence system in the world. China already has the system which has deployed it along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in eastern Ladakh.  https://youtu.be/RNzBFbhViPo

Delhi: Air Pollution At Wind's Mercy; AQI In Very Poor Category 

On Sunday, the national capital got some relief after the AQI (air quality index) improved from severe to very poor category and stood at 330. Due to the reduction in transport-level wind speed, the share of stubble burning reduced from 31% to 12%. SAFAR (System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research) said: "AQI is likely to improve for the next two days as winds at transport level are slowing down, resulting in the lesser intrusion of farm fire-related pollutants into Delhi," "If lockdown is implemented for the next two days, air quality may improve a little. However, it is likely to very poor for the next two days if the stubble burning share doesn't increase. AQI is likely to deteriorate from Tuesday night due to calm winds. On Wednesday, it is likely to be in the upper end of the very poor category," it added.  https://youtu.be/VBDLR8t2GqE
