China’s Xi Jinping to Visit North Korea Next Week

Chinese President Xi Jinping will pay a two-day state visit to North Korea next week, marking his first trip to the country since 2019.

US Senate Approves $70bn for Trump Immigration Crackdown

The United States Senate has approved a $70 billion funding plan backing President Donald Trump’s hard-line immigration crackdown, advancing a major boost for federal enforcement agencies. The roughly $70bn bill will finance US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Border Patrol for three years, covering the remainder of Trump’s presidency until January 2029, if it is approved by the House of Representatives and signed into law. Senators voted along largely party lines after weeks of internal Republican wrangling and clashes with Democrats over the scope of enforcement powers and conditions on how the money will be spent. The proposal could ultimately authorise tens of billions of dollars more over several years when related enforcement operations are included. The measure comes out of a broader effort to restore full funding to the Department of Homeland Security, which has faced partial […]

Global Mangrove Forests Stage Remarkable Recovery

Mangrove forests around the world are showing signs of a significant recovery after decades of decline, according to new research that highlights the growing success of conservation efforts and the natural resilience of these vital coastal ecosystems. Scientists have found that, since 2010, global mangrove gains have exceeded losses for the first time in decades. The turnaround marks a major shift for forests that were once disappearing rapidly due to expanding aquaculture, agriculture, urban development, and other human activities. Mangroves play a crucial role in protecting coastlines and combating climate change. Their dense root systems help shield coastal communities from storm surges, flooding, and tsunamis, while also serving as important habitats for fish and marine species. In addition, mangrove forests are among the planet's most effective natural carbon stores, capable of absorbing and retaining significantly more carbon dioxide than many […]

A newly released report by the National Audit Office (NAO) has revealed that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor received rental income from three cottages located on the Royal Lodge estate, which he was permitted to sub-let under the terms of his lease with the Crown Estate.

Missing Everest Guide Found Alive After Six Days

A former British soldier has shared the remarkable story of the final moments he spent with a Nepali mountain guide before the climber disappeared on Mount Everest and was later found alive after nearly a week in one of the world's most dangerous environments. Dawa Sherpa, an experienced guide known as Hillary Dawa Sherpa, was discovered alive on Thursday after spending six days missing in Everest's notorious "death zone," an area above 8,000 meters where oxygen levels are critically low and survival becomes increasingly difficult. Chris Thrall, who was climbing with Dawa Sherpa, described the guide’s survival as extraordinary and almost impossible to comprehend. Speaking to the BBC's Newshour program, Thrall said the emotional turnaround was overwhelming after he had already prepared himself for the worst. "One moment I was speaking with his daughter and offering condolences, and the next […]

Zelensky Urges Direct Peace Talks With Putin

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has renewed his call for direct talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin, proposing a face-to-face meeting as part of efforts to bring an end to the ongoing war between the two countries. In a public letter addressed to Putin, Zelensky argued that waiting for the conflict to regain the full attention of the United States would be a mistake. He stressed that lasting peace could only be achieved through direct negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow. The Ukrainian leader also urged Russia to agree to a complete ceasefire throughout any future peace discussions, although Putin had earlier rejected the idea of a full halt in fighting during negotiations. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump voiced support for a potential meeting between the two leaders, saying such talks would be beneficial and could help move peace efforts forward. The […]

AI-Designed Vaccine Shows Promise Against Pandemics

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed an innovative artificial intelligence-designed vaccine that could provide protection against a broad range of viruses and help prevent future pandemics. According to the research team, this is the first time that a vaccine's central component, known as an antigen, has been created entirely using AI technology and then tested in human volunteers. The experimental vaccine was designed to target the entire coronavirus family, including existing Covid-19 variants as well as animal-borne coronaviruses that could potentially trigger future global outbreaks. Although the project remains in its early stages, scientists are already applying the same technology to develop vaccines against influenza and Ebola. Traditional vaccines train the immune system to recognize and combat specific viruses. However, many viruses frequently mutate, allowing them to evade existing immune defenses and reducing vaccine effectiveness over time. This […]

Weapons Looted During Libyan Conflict Found with Extremists in Nigeria – UN

The United Nations has raised serious concern that some weapons looted during the 2011 conflict in Libya have ended up in the hands of extremist groups operating in Nigeria. Speaking at UN Headquarters in New York, Izumi Nakamitsu, the UN Under-Secretary-General and High Representative for Disarmament Affairs, expressed concern over the long-term impact of illicit arms trafficking, noting that the uncontrolled flow of weapons from Libya has created a cycle of instability in the Sahel and West Africa. According to UN officials, arms from Libya’s vast stockpiles were smuggled across porous borders into several Sahel countries, including Niger, Chad, Mali and Nigeria, where they now fuel terrorist violence and organised crime. Security analysts say the uncontrolled flow of these weapons has “created a cycle of instability in the region,” empowering insurgent groups like Boko Haram and ISWAP, as well as […]
