2020 end: Check out five world changing events of this year

संपूर्ण जगाला कोविड-१९ चा वेढा

Nothing more bizarre than a pandemic could have hit the world. 2020 was marked with millions of infections and deaths because of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the novel coronavirus spread all over the world. Many countries enforced strict lockdowns and shut down schools, colleges, offices, and other institutions to keep the pandemic in check. The world literally came to a halt.

North Korean leader Kim-Jong un's presumed death took social media by storm. With rumours circulating around his death, netizens started supporting his sister, Kim Yo-jong, to take reigns and lead the dictatorship.

In a bizarre turn of events, Poland briefly invaded the Czech Republic in what was later called a 'misunderstanding'. Polish troops, in their bid to enforce pandemic measures, prevented Czech visitors from visiting a chapel, which was later found to be in the Czech territory.

The Pentagon in the United States released three declassified videos, which turned out to be evidence of 'unexplained aerial phenomenon'. Most people directly made a correlation with unidentified flying objects (UFOs).

As if the pandemic was not enough, swarms of locusts laid siege to Delhi and the National Capital Region in July 2020. The locusts are known to pay a seasonal visit to certain areas of the country but in a pandemic-hit country, it took everyone by surprise. A similar locusts attack in West Africa also created a buzz this year, with many thinking of a Biblical plague.
