A meeting was held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkmenistan between Deputy Minister Ahmet Gurbanov and the Acting Chargé d’Affaires of Afghanistan in Turkmenistan, Fazal Muhammad Sabir.

During the discussion, the deputy minister expressed deep sympathy and solidarity with the Afghan diplomat regarding the devastating earthquake in northern Afghanistan, which caused casualties and injuries.

Ahmet Gurbanov emphasized that Turkmenistan received the news with sorrow and affirmed the country’s readiness to deliver humanitarian assistance to the affected population of brotherly Afghanistan in the near future.

The Ministry highlighted that Turkmenistan’s longstanding tradition of supporting others in difficult times remains a cornerstone of fostering friendly relations and neighborly cooperation between nations.

This ongoing humanitarian mission is exemplified by the systematic work of the Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov Charity Foundation, which consistently provides aid to children and populations in need, including those in Afghanistan affected by natural disasters, reinforcing Turkmenistan’s unwavering commitment to helping neighboring peoples.

On-the-Go Power: Japanese Engineers Develop Wireless In-Road Charging for Electric Vehicles

In a major leap for electric mobility, Honda R&D, alongside Taisei Corporation and Taisei Rotec, has unveiled an innovative dynamic wireless charging system that charges electric vehicles as they drive. By embedding compact energy-transmitting modules directly into the road surface, the system transfers power via a magnetic field to receivers mounted underneath moving vehicles. Designed to withstand heavy commercial transport up to 20 tons, real-world road testing is scheduled to begin in Japan in April 2027.

The technology eliminates the need for full road reconstruction, as modules can be integrated directly into milled asphalt layers. Aimed at boosting charging power up to 150 kW in future iterations, this infrastructure solution promise to significantly reduce grid pressure on traditional charging stations, particularly for logistics and commercial fleets.
