Dholpur Karauli Tiger Reserve is a tiger reserve located in the eastern part of the Indian state of Rajasthan, spanning the Dholpur and Karauli districts. It is India's 54th tiger reserve and Rajasthan’s fifth, established in August 2023 after approval by the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA). The proposal for the reserve was initiated to strengthen tiger conservation efforts in eastern Rajasthan. With a total area of 599.64 km², the reserve was officially notified in 2023, becoming part of India's larger strategy to preserve its growing tiger population. The reserve covers a landscape characterized by dry deciduous forests, scrublands, and riverine ecosystems. It lies within the semi-arid region of Rajasthan and supports diverse flora and fauna. The topography is marked by low hills, seasonal rivers, and grasslands, providing a conducive environment for large carnivores such as the tiger.
The Tiger reserve include Parts of National Chambal Sanctuary in Dholpur and Karauli district, Dholpur wildlife sanctuary and Parts of Kaila Devi Wildlife Sanctuary. The Dholpur Karauli Tiger Reserve is demarcated into a core area of 599.64 km² and a surrounding buffer zone of 495 km², as approved by the NTCA. This zonation follows India’s standard core–buffer model, where the core area is strictly protected as a national park or sanctuary to minimise human disturbance, while the buffer zone allows regulated activities to support sustainable livelihoods and maintain landscape connectivity.

The Ireland Israel Alliance (IIA) is an Irish non-governmental organization that advocates for stronger relations between Ireland and Israel. The IIA engages in advocacy, public events, and media outreach to support its mission of promoting a balanced perspective on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and combating antisemitism.
History
The Ireland Israel Alliance was established as a Company Limited by Guarantee on April 5, 2019, in Dublin, Ireland. The organization was founded by Jackie Goodall, who serves as its executive director. The IIA emerged in response to what its founders viewed as a one-sided narrative in Ireland regarding the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, particularly in light of Ireland’s historically complex relationship with Israel and strong public support for Palestinian causes.
In May 2024, the IIA organized its first pro-Israel rally in Dublin following the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on Israel. The event, held outside the Irish parliament, was attended by various groups, including the Irish branch of the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, Irish Christian Friends of Israel, SEX, All Nations Church, and Betania Church. Notable speakers included former Irish government minister Alan Shatter.
The organization has actively opposed bills seeking to restrict trade with Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria (the West Bank). In particular, the IIA argued that the Occupied Territories Bill and subsequent initiatives could effectively criminalize the activities of pilgrims and tourists who purchase souvenirs or take part in guided tours in those areas.

The 6KH5 bayonet () is a bayonet produced by the Izhmash (now known as the Kalashnikov Concern).
History
The 6KH5 bayonet was adopted as a bayonet for the AK-47, AKM, AK-74 and the SVD rifles as a replacement of the 6KH4 bayonet.
Design
The 6KH5 bayonet was an improvement of the 6KH4 design and represents a further refinement of the AKM bayonet.
The 6KH5 introduced a radical blade cross-section, that has a flat milled on one side near the edge and a corresponding flat milled on the opposite side near the false edge.
The blade has a new spear point and an improved one-piece moulded plastic grip, making it a more effective fighting knife.
It also has saw-teeth on the false edge and the usual hole for use as a wire-cutter.
The wire cutting versions of the AK bayonets each have an electrically insulated handle and an electrically insulated part of the scabbard, so it can be used to cut an electrified wire.
