Zelenskyy Slams U.S. Inaction After One of Russia’s Largest Strikes on Kyiv Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed frustration with former U.S. President Donald Trump and the broader international response, calling for “concrete actions, not silence,” after a massive Russian assault hit seven of Kyiv’s ten districts overnight. Russia launched an intense aerial barrage in the early hours of Tuesday, firing 315 drones and seven missiles across Ukraine, including in Odesa and other key regions. The capital, however, bore the brunt of the attack, which lasted more than five hours and appeared to be a retaliatory response to Ukraine’s recent Operation…

As U.S. and Chinese trade negotiators meet in London this week, Washington’s top concern is whether Beijing will ease its grip on rare earth minerals—materials critical to countless modern technologies. China holds a near-monopoly in the global rare earth supply chain, mining around 70% and refining nearly 90% of these essential elements. Rare earths are used in everything from electric vehicles and military systems to wind turbines and even car seats. In contrast, the U.S. has minimal domestic production, largely because rare earth mining is costly and environmentally destructive. This imbalance became more urgent in April when China tightened export…

Together, Marchand and Bennett have now combined for eight goals in…

New evidence has revealed that Nazi guards at a prison camp on one of the Channel Islands used prisoners for target practice as a form of weekend entertainment during the Second World War. According to recent research, SS guards at the Sylt camp on Alderney would select around a dozen prisoners on Sundays and transport them to a nearby light-gauge railway. There, the prisoners were tied to tipper trucks and used as live targets. Over the course of several hours, the guards would shoot at specific parts of the prisoners’ bodies, deliberately wounding them multiple times before ultimately killing them.…

President Donald Trump’s immigration policy has ignited widespread backlash in Los Angeles, the second-largest city in the United States. So far, at least 56 people have been arrested in large-scale protests following federal immigration raids conducted in the city on Friday. The demonstrations disrupted one of the region’s major freeways, and federal agents are facing criticism after detaining and allegedly injuring a well-known labor leader during the operation.

State leaders…

Snuggling up with your partner at bedtime might do more than just feel cozy—it could actually benefit your health. A recent study published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships found that nighttime cuddling helps strengthen emotional bonds between partners while also reducing stress levels. Researchers at Auburn University studied 143 heterosexual couples who shared a bed, looking at how physical closeness at bedtime related to factors like stress, emotional insecurity, and sleep disruptions. They also took into account variables such as age, income, relationship duration, daytime tiredness, sleep disorders, and whether pets or children shared the bed. The…
