There is more at stake than just business negotiations at an annual summit between Russia and India. Putin and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be hoping to do deals on oil and defence, but the image the meeting projects is perhaps just as important, our editors write. "The Kremlin enjoys demonstrating that Western efforts to isolate it over the war in Ukraine have failed. Flying to India and meeting Modi is one way of doing that," writes Russia editor Steve Rosenberg. While for India, the meeting with Putin will "test" its "geopolitical autonomy", notes the BBC's Vikas Pandey in Delhi. Modi "will be walking the proverbial diplomatic tightrope" trying to balance ties with both Russia and the West, he says.

"My heart breaks every time someone calls me a hero," says William Li as he breaks down in tears. The 40-year-old helped save two of his neighbours when their block of flats in Hong Kong went up in flames last week, yet he is haunted by guilt. He says he is speaking out to "help find the truth", highlighting fire alarms that did not go off and reports a fire exit was locked. His is just one of many stories of small acts of heroism that have emerged in the wake of the blaze that left 159 people dead.
