NEW YORK (PIX11) — New York politicians on both sides of the aisle expressed shock after Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on a college campus in Utah on Wednesday. Kirk, CEO and co-founder of conservative youth organization Turning Point USA, was assassinated while hosting an event on Utah Valley University’s campus on Wednesday afternoon. […]

The Gen-Z group, which led the anti-government protests in Nepal resulting in the collapse of the KP Sharma Oli government, has demanded Parliament dissolution and Constitution overhaul. The demands have come just as the death toll from the two-day violent protests climbed to 34.

Karki’s integrity offers hope for reform in a country wracked by violence that left dozens dead and ousted prime minister Sharma Oli.

China said it hopes Nepal can restore order soon after deadly protests led by disaffected Gen Z erupted and brought down the government. The parliament and other official buildings were torched, along with the homes of political leaders.

Nepal was plunged into political uncertainty after its prime minister resigned on Tuesday following widespread anti-corruption protests, triggered by a social media ban, that killed at least 19 people.

Nepal is reeling under severe protests by Gen Z. The unrest initially began with the government's order to ban social media platforms but gradually turned into an anti-corruption movement. Protestors took to streets and resorted to vandalism and arson.

The fall of KP Sharma Oli's regime in Nepal -- echoing similar events in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh -- signals a shifting political tide across South Asia. To unpack the causes and what might come next, The Daily Star spoke with South Asian history researcher and columnist Altaf Parvez.

Earlier this week, thousands of mainly young people in Nepal took to the streets in mass protests triggered by the government's decision to ban 26 social media platforms.
