Amber Heard makes first public appearance since losing defamation trial against Johnny Depp

Amber Heard, one of the most popular Hollywood actresses, has made her first public appearance since the famous American actor Johnny Depp, her ex-husband, was found not guilty in her defamation case.

Amber Heard attended the Taormina Film Festival in Italy on Friday, the day before the world premiere of her new movie, "In the Fire." She wore a white T-shirt and a wrap-around skirt for the prestigious event.

Reports state that Amber Heard's character in the supernatural thriller film "In the Fire" is a psychiatrist who is "called to solve the case of a disturbed child following increasingly insistent accusations that the child is the devil.”

A video of Heard's appearance at the festival was shared on Twitter with the caption, "This is bravery and strength you're seeing in this video. No matter how hard the world attempted to break her, this lady refused to be broken. I can only hope to be half as courageous as Amber Heard."

More than a year after she lost the defamation trial against Depp, Heard made her first public appearance at the event. The "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor sued Heard for $50 million, saying she defamed him in an opinion piece about sexual assault she wrote for the Washington Post in 2018. He claimed that the post defamed him and affected his image. The six weeks trial was in favor of Depp. The jury asked Heard to pay Depp $10 million in compensatory damages and $350,000 in punitive penalties after Depp won the lawsuit. Heard's countersuit against Depp had given her a $2 million compensatory damages verdict from the jury.

Earlier this year, rumors emerged that Heard had quit Hollywood. However, she told her fans in a TikTok video that she had several films lined up and had not quit acting.

Bangladesh Military Expresses Discontent Over Chinese Weapons; Reports 'Sub-Standard' and Faulty Parts

  Bangladesh, a traditional buyer of Chinese military equipment, has raised grievances with Beijing regarding the delivery of defective components and technical malfunctions in its imported military hardware. This issue is not unique to Bangladesh, as other nations like Myanmar have also encountered problems with Chinese fighter jets, according to an ET report. Experts in the Chinese defense industry argue that Beijing lacks the expertise to manufacture highly sophisticated military hardware and is not yet considered a top-tier producer of modern defense equipment. They claim that much of China's weapon systems are based on outdated technology copied from the West. Developing countries often opt for Chinese weapons due to their lower cost compared to similar systems from Western countries. China sells arms through state-run export organizations like the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC), NORINCO, and CVIC. Sources familiar with the matter told ET that the Bangladesh mil...

India raises concern over North Korea missile tests at UNSC, 2nd time in weeks

 As the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) met for the second time in a month over the missile tests in North Korea, India yet again raised concerns over the impact on peace and security in the region. New Delhi has also reiterated its support for the denuclearisation in the Korean peninsula, underlining that it is “in collective interest” while also stressing that “dialogue and diplomacy” are preferred means to resolve the issue. The latest intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) test by the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) has again sparked tensions between nations with the United States and its allies calling for the country to limit its programs even as Russia and China back Pyongyang amid the likelihood of new sanctions. In the latest UNSC meeting, the United States, Britain, France, and India were among 14 nations to "strongly condemn" the latest North Korea launch on Friday, which was reported to have landed about 125 miles (200 kilometers) from ...
