1 2 Lucknow: Twenty-six years after the Kargil War , Colonel Rajesh W Adhau, Sena Medal, retraced his steps to Point 5140, a towering peak at 16,800 feet in the rugged Kargil terrain. On July 7, 2025, he stood atop the same ground — famously known as Tiger Hill — where his comrade, Captain Vikram Batra, (Param Vir Chakra-posthumous), sacrificed his life on July 7, 1999, while capturing the strategic peak from enemy forces. The climb, undertaken with the current commanding officer of 13 Jammu and Kashmir Rifles (JAK), Colonel Rajesh Bandhe, and a dozen soldiers, was an emotional one for Adhau. As the Regimental Medical Officer (RMO) of 13 JAK during the 1999 War, Adhau, with just one year of service, faced relentless challenges. Tasked with keeping wounded soldiers alive under heavy shelling, he administered first aid to 97 14 soldiers died in his care, nine from fatal last conversation with Batra, on the evening of July 6, 1999, was a poignant memory — Batra had requested medicine for a headache, unaware of the fate awaiting him the next morning. Reflecting on the trek, Adhau shared, "It was an emotional moment. We fought against all odds to reclaim this land." Upon reaching Point 5140, he called Vishal Batra, Vikram's brother, to share the significance of the moment.

1,000-year-old medieval sword found in Dutch river after construction workers stumbled upon the artifact
A remarkable medieval sword with rare symbols was recently put on display in a Dutch museum, over a year after it was found by construction workers unexpectedly. The discovery of the sword was announced by the Netherlands' National Museum of Antiquities (RMO) in Leiden on June 24. Advertisement The artifact, named the Linschoten Sword, was found in March 2024 during 'maintenance dredging activities,' the museum said in a press release. Construction workers were struck by a 'long piece of iron' while cleaning a small river known as the Korte Linschoten, the statement noted. The discovery turned out to be a sword measuring over three feet in length, dating back between 1050 and 1150 A.D. Pictures show the sword with a long crossguard and a pommel shaped like a Brazil nut, the museum noted. Advertisement 'The blade is sharp on both edges and inlaid with strips of gold-colored copper, forming circular motifs featuring a cross and an 'endless knot' flanked by three lines on each side,' the RMO said. The sword was likely made with high-quality iron that was mined locally in the Veluwe hills. Experts believe it was deliberately deposited into the river, as there was no trace of a scabbard or sheath. 3 A remarkable medieval sword with rare symbols was recently put on display in a Dutch museum, over a year after it was found by construction workers unexpectedly.
