In a dramatic political development, former Nepal Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli has been arrested. The arrest is reportedly linked to a severe crackdown on recent protests led by Gen Z activists, highlighting growing domestic instability and generational tension within the country. The move has drawn international attention to Nepal's human rights situation and the government's response to dissent. 

The protests, which have been gathering momentum over several weeks, are focused on demands for political reform and better economic opportunities for the youth. Oli's arrest marks a significant escalation in the state's efforts to contain the movement. 

Regional security remains a top priority for neighboring leaders, with UAE President Sheikh Mohamed and Ukraine's President Zelenskyy discussing the broader implications of such regional instabilities on global security.
