Lo riporta l'Ingv. Nessun danno segnalato Terremoto in Calabria. Oggi, sabato 10 ottobre, una scossa di magnitudo 3.3 è stata registrata verso le 8.30 nella costa calabra sud-occidentale tra Catanzaro, Vibo Valentia e Reggio di Calabria. A riportarlo è l'Ingv, che su Facebook raccoglie anche le segnalazioni di diversi utenti. La scossa sarebbe stata avvertita in particolare nella provincia di Reggio Calabria, in particolare a Gioia Tauro, ma anche a Messina, in Sicilia. Tanta paura ma al momento non si hanno notizie di danni a cose o persone.

La squadra di Allegri ospita i gialloblù nella sesta giornata di campionato Il Napoli torna in campo in Serie A. Oggi, sabato 10 ottobre, la squadra di Massimiliano Allegri ospita il Frosinone allo stadio Diego Armando Maradona. Gli azzurri, noni in classifica a quota 7 punti, vanno a caccia di punti pesanti per riscattare un avvio di stagione non esaltante. Dall'altra parte, i gialloblù dovranno dare continuità a un inizio di stagione sorprendente, che li vede sesti a quota 10 punti. Ecco orario, probabili formazioni e dove vederla in tv e streaming. Ecco le probabili formazioni di Napoli-Frosinone, in campo alle 20:45: NAPOLI (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Marin R., Spinazzola…

Un’auto capofamiglia. Perché 21 anni fa ha inaugurato la gamma Q per poi raddoppiare e arrivare agli 11 modelli attuali, che hanno messo a soqquadro il mercato dei Suv premium e il mix di vendite di Audi Italia, passato in 10 anni dal 38% al 58%. E perché introduce per la prima volta una configurazione a sei posti. Capofamiglia per la novità dei suoi indicatori di direzione, che proiettano la luce anche sul terreno, e per l’esordio delle portiere che si aprono e si chiudono elettricamente. Se ogni automobile ha un destino, soprattutto commerciale, quello di Audi Q7, terza generazione a 21 anni della nascita, è proprio quello di essere familiare, anche nel senso stretto di Suv al servizio…

Sventola bandiera americana sul nuovo data center in costruzione alle porte di Roma Ovest, a un pugno di chilometri tra il Grande Raccordo Anulare (il perimetro di confine della capitale) e il Mar Tirreno. Il gigantesco campus, con sei edifici spalmati su 220mila metri quadrati, è firmato Digital Realty Trust, società quotata a Wall Street. Fatturato di 6,8 miliardi di dollari negli ultimi 12 mesi, il dato di giugno fornito da Bloomberg. Chi sono gli azionisti del colosso? I più grandi fondi d’investimento al mondo, con base Oltreoceano: Vanguard, Blackrock, State Street, Blackstone. “Una sorta di colonizzazione moderna: invece di comprare il tè come al tempo della Compagnia delle Indie…

Il tennista cinese è stato battuto dal tedesco al secondo turno del Masters 1000 Yibing Wu 'distrugge' Alexander Zverev. Il tennista cinese è stato battuto dal tedesco, numero due del mondo ma che presto supererà Jannik Sinner in testa al ranking Atp, nel secondo turno del Masters 1000 di Shanghai, ma a fine partita ne ha approfittato per togliersi qualche sassolino dalla scarpa: "Senza dubbio ho apprezzato di più la partita con Alcaraz perché è stata una sfida più stimolante", ha detto Wu dopo essersi arreso in due set con il punteggio di 4-6, 6-7 (4). "Oggi ci sono stati piccoli incidenti durante la partita: buttarsi a terra, lamentarsi delle luci, toccare la fascia della rete... Penso…

L'imprenditore ospite dell'ultima puntata di Pulp Podcast: "Mio padre ci ha dato tutto, non l'amore". E aggiunge: "La droga colmava il buio" "La maggior parte dei miliardari sono dei cog...ni. Ho due yacht battenti bandiera italiana ma uno lo voglio vendere. Tra l'altro se qualcuno che ci ascolta vuole fare un’offerta...". Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio parla a tutto campo a Fedez nell'ultima puntata di Pulp Podcast, della quale è stato pubblicato sui social un estratto.

Il giornalista e scrittore: "Ora attendo che la coalizione chiarisca percorso e tempi. Io ci sono". E sottolinea: "Serve larga legittimazione per governare futuro città" "Sono pronto per le primarie, uno strumento coraggioso che fa bene alla politica. Attendo che la coalizione chiarisca percorso e tempi, mi sembra che lo scenario si stia definendo. Io ci sono". A parlare è Mario Calabresi, che si dice disponibile a candidarsi con il centrosinistra a sindaco di Milano. In un'intervista al Corriere della Sera, il giornalista e scrittore spiega le ragioni della sua scelta: "E' necessario tornare a coinvolgere i milanesi per superare stanchezza e disillusione - dice -.

Nuovo confronto tra Gian Marco Ciaccia e la ragazza dopo la rottura in diretta degli scorsi giorni Colpo di scena al Grande Fratello Vip. Nella puntata di ieri è tornato nella Casa il fidanzato di Piera Meloni, Gian Marco Ciaccia, per un nuovo confronto dopo la rottura, in diretta televisiva, andato in onda pochi giorni fa anche a causa dell'avvicinamento e del manifesto interesse della ragazza per Alessandro Roncaccia. La nuova discussione tra i due ex fidanzati si è conclusa con la richiesta del giovane di restare, almeno per qualche ora, nella Casa per chiarire ogni aspetto della questione, e con l'assenso, seppur con qualche remora, di Meloni. "Se io non te l’avessi chiesto, tu mi…

Sono 150 gli interventi dei vigili del fuoco in due giorni, cedimenti lungo la statale Sorrentina. Allerta arancione nel Salento: sindaco Lecce chiude scuole. Piogge nel Barese Sono stati evacuati in via precauzionale tre appartamenti a causa di una frana nella zona di Mergellina, a Napoli. Prosegue l'impegno dei vigili del fuoco per fronteggiare le conseguenze dell'ondata di maltempo che sta interessando l'intero territorio provinciale: 150 gli interventi già portati a termine dalle squadre, concentrati prevalentemente su allagamenti, danni d'acqua e dissesti statici.

La donna, 59 anni, è gravemente indiziata del reato di omicidio preterintenzionale aggravato. L’uomo morì il 18 settembre all’ospedale San Donato di Arezzo E' stata arrestata la moglie di Giancarlo Bernardini, il 70enne morto dissanguato il 18 settembre scorso all’ospedale San Donato di Arezzo dopo essere stato ferito a una gamba nella sua abitazione di Pian del Ponte, nel comune di Bibbiena (Arezzo). La donna, Maria Ricci, 59 anni, è gravemente indiziata del reato di omicidio preterintenzionale aggravato. I carabinieri della compagnia di Bibbiena e del nucleo investigativo del reparto operativo del comando provinciale di Arezzo hanno eseguito un’ordinanza di custodia cautelare in carcere…

Se un artista viene definito “grande” – e la statura ovviamente non c’entra – ciò accade per una serie di motivi. Perché su di lui o su di lei si è scritto molto, perché le sue opere hanno un valore (sia economico, sia storico-artistico) molto elevato e infine perché le sue opere sono sparse in un numero consistente di musei. E se qualcuno è capace di poterne riunire la maggior parte in un luogo preciso per un certo periodo, allora questa impresa – che si chiama “mostra” – profuma già di capolavoro. La premessa era doverosa perché l’attesissima mostra Pontormo – che si è appena aperta alle Scuderie del Quirinale e prosegue fino al 7 febbraio facendo sulla rivoluzione artistica e la…

Blackface? Più probabile che si tratti di altro. Altissima considerazione di sé, questo sì. Si è definito “l’Obama italiano” e, grazie all’intelligenza artificiale, si è raffigurato con la pelle nera. Sullo sfondo, le guglie del Duomo di Milano. Lui è Salvatore Varano, commercialista calabrese, ras delle tessere di Futuro nazionale. Che, però, da quanto dichiarato da lui stesso, ha fondato un progetto civico, chiamato Orgoglio Milano, e si è candidato a sindaco del capoluogo lombardo. Evidentemente, abbandonando il partito di Roberto Vannacci. O forse no. “Ho voluto scherzare sulla mia immagine” ha scritto, rappresentandosi “come un candidato sindaco di colore (sic). Una provocazione…

L’Italia è ancora un Paese di risparmiatori e le famiglie conservano un patrimonio superiore alla media europea in rapporto al reddito disponibile. Ma dove finisce tutta questa ricchezza? Perché i salari non crescono, gli affitti aumentano e i servizi pubblici peggiorano? Per Alessandro Volpi, docente di Storia contemporanea all’Università di Pisa e autore di ‘La finanza è colpevole’ (Einaudi), una parte della risposta sta nella finanziarizzazione dell’economia: il processo per cui il risparmio, anche quello di lavoratori e pensionati, viene convogliato verso fondi e mercati finanziari alla ricerca di rendimenti. Un sistema che, dice Volpi, finisce per alimentare gli stessi problemi dai…

Il governo italiano vuole adottare, con il ddl 1004 già approvato al Senato, la definizione di antisemitismo data dall’Ihra (International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance) e in vigore in diversi paesi, tra cui Usa e in Germania. Ma è lo stesso Kenneth Stern, ebreo sionista convinto e principale estensore nel 2004 della definizione in questione, che ne sconsiglia l’adozione in una legge ritenendola “pericolosa”. In una lunga e interessante intervista trasmessa su X del canale Officine Shaysu e riportata su Kritica.it, Stern, 73 anni, avvocato e attuale direttore del Bard Center for the Study of Hate, è molto chiaro: “Alimenterà un nuovo maccartismo”. Il maccartismo è la caccia alle streghe…

Possono una biblioteca, un museo o un concerto musicale trasformarsi in luoghi di benessere e salute per la mente? La domanda non è secondaria, in un momento in cui la salute psicologica dei giovani è diventata una delle emergenze sociali più rilevanti. L’Organizzazione mondiale della sanità indica che nel mondo circa un adolescente su sette, tra i 10 e i 19 anni, vive con un disturbo mentale: una platea di circa 185 milioni di giovani. Di fatto, diverse ricerche indicano che è possibile intervenire in queste problematiche anche attraverso l’esperienza culturale, facendo dialogare arte, neuroscienze e scienze del benessere. Ne è un esempio il progetto InsideArts, nato dall’idea di Felicia…

Agli Arcimboldi di Milano, poi in tuor fino al 25 novembre, “TuttoBrunori” è un live che mescola musica e riflessioni. Sul privato e sull’attualità. “Vorrei raccontare il dubbio, non quello che ti blocca ma quello che anzi ti fa cercare una qualche forma di verità”

His aubergine velvet suit, black shirt and lilac tie with white polka dots stand out against the more sober tones of the officials around him and the white walls of his latest project. To say that Norman Foster looks formidable at 91 would be a considerable understatement. Foster, the world’s most important living architect, strides briskly through the galleries of Bilbao’s Museum of Fine Arts, where the Manchester-born architect has just completed a major renovation. He attends the unveiling of a magnificent Kiefer sculpture in the entrance garden and then, four floors up, shows off two works by Anthony Caro on the new terrace. All three pieces have been loaned to the museum by Norman and…

Il costituzionalista sulla legge elettorale: “La Corte interverrà per tempo anche in caso di urne anticipate. Il vulnus peggiore è il premio di maggioranza spropositato”

Testo completo non disponibile per questo articolo; titolo originale: «Il mistero delle armi a Kiev, pronto il pacchetto di aiuti ma il governo ora è diviso».

Interpellata su quale fosse il programma elettorale del Campo Largo, la segretaria del Pd Elly Schlein finalmente ha messo le carte in tavola: «Il nostro programma sarà attuare la Costituzione». Fantastico. È un po’ come chiedere a un allenatore quale tattica userà per la prossima partita e lui rispondesse: «Ci atterremo alle regole del calcio». Povero Pd, ma anche povera Costituzione costretta a fare da tappabuchi al vuoto pneumatico della sinistra che ogni due per tre annuncia di volersi appellare alla Corte costituzionale, l’ultima contro la nuova legge elettorale approvata dal parlamento e firmata dal Presidente Mattarella (pochi giorni fa era successo per il decreto sul tetto nelle…

Il giorno dopo il pranzo a tre (menù: lenticchie) tra Giuseppe Conte, Angelo Bonelli e Nicola Fratoianni, è il momento dei chiarimenti. Che, però, se sgombrano il campo a trame, confermano il fatto che resta una distanza su come scegliere il candidato premier e, di conseguenza, anche su chi debba farlo. Approfittando della seduta della legge elettorale alla Camera, Elly Schlein si è appartata a lungo nel corridoio dei fumatori con Nicola Fratoianni. Poi, dopo il voto, con Angelo Bonelli su un divanetto del Transatlantico. Ma niente pranzo. Anche perché la segretaria del Pd aveva ancora i postumi di un’influenza. «Oggi sto meglio», ha risposto ai cronisti, «ma sono sempre sotto tachipirina».…

Non toccatele Putin, per carità. Ginevra Bompiani, ospite di L’aria che tira su La7, dichiara guerra a David Parenzo sulla minaccia russa all’Europa. «Bompiani, capisce che chi abita più vicino alla Russia, questo allarme lo sente», esordisce il conduttore. Prima smorfia dell'intellettuale rossa: «L’Inghilterra abiterebbe più vicina alla Russia?». David spiega che si riferisce a Estonia e Lituania: «Secondo lei è tutto inventato?». «Non dico sia tutto inventato - premette la Bompiani -, è sicuro che la Russia crescerà e bombarderà di più. È naturale perché la Nato e l’Europa stanno facendo di tutto perché questo accada. Quello che stiamo facendo noi non è un’escalation?». «La Nato non fa…

ROMA – La riflessione, a Palazzo Chigi, è stata breve. Il confronto con la Farnesina ancora più rapido. Impossibile per l’Italia non partecipare alla dichiarazione congiunta con cui i membri del G7 (ad eccezione degli Stati Uniti) si sono schierati a favore della Corte penale internazionale e contro le sanzioni annunciate da Donald Trump. Impossibile restare al fianco di Washington – in questa battaglia spalleggiata da Israele – senza pagare un prezzo politico devastante. Un costo che la premier non intende affrontare, a pochi mesi dalle elezioni. Non c’è stato dubbio, dunque. Per non rischiare di finire nel mirino delle opposizioni, fonti della Farnesina anticipano la pubblicazione dello…

Alludeva sui social network a stragi a scuola, denunciato minorenne a Catania

Milano, 10 ott. (askanews) - In anteprima il video di "Se non ci fossi tu" di Erjona. Il nuovo singolo è un viaggio visivo ed emotivo che esplora la forza dei legami autentici. Attraverso le immagini intense di questo videoclip, Erjona dà voce e forma a quell'amore capace di salvarci nei momenti più bui. Una melodia e un testo che toccano il cuore, accompagnati da un racconto per immagini intimo e travolgente. La scelta di "spogliare" il brano da sovrastrutture, restituendo l'emozione autentica della sua genesi tra pianoforte e voce, si è rivelata una grande vittoria, al fine di trasmettere e fare arrivare il messaggio del brano nella sua forma più pura. Il videoclip del brano, scritto e…

Don Chisciotte vedeva giganti dove c’erano mulini a vento. Il Movimento 5 Stelle accusa il governo dello stesso abbaglio, nemici inventati per giustificare la spesa militare, ma ha il difetto opposto, dalle conseguenze più spiacevoli: davanti ai giganti vede mulini. I suoi deputati hanno ripetuto l’accusa ieri a Montecitorio, mentre Pechino annunciava un’intesa più stretta con Mosca e gli hacker filorussi attaccavano il sito della Farnesina. La commissione Difesa si votava il Documento programmatico di finanza pubblica, la cornice della prossima legge di Bilancio. Il testo prevede di aumentare la spesa militare di non più dello 0,3% del Pil all’anno e una deroga europea esclude la cifra dai…

Novak Djokovic conosce bene il prezzo di un infortunio e avverte Jannik Sinner: il ritorno in campo non dipende soltanto dal recupero fisico, ma anche dalla capacità di ritrovare fiducia nel proprio corpo. Il campione serbo, da Shanghai, ha condiviso la scelta dell’azzurro di chiudere in anticipo la stagione 2026 per curare il ginocchio, invitandolo a non avere fretta. “Ti chiedi sempre: sono davvero guarito?”. È questo il dubbio che può accompagnare un tennista dopo uno stop prolungato. Perché, anche quando il fisico sembra pronto, resta la paura che un movimento improvviso possa riaccendere il dolore o provocare una ricaduta. “Dal punto di vista fisico sai quando sei pronto, ma poi c’è…

Per una volta, la Spagna di Pedro Sanchez - e non il contrario - prende esempio dalla sinistra italiana. Alla festa organizzata dall'ambasciata di Madrid in Italia la serata si è conclusa in perfetto stile Festa dell'Unità. Come? Con "Bella Ciao" cantata a squarciagola. Come segnala Dagospia, gli invitati al party si sono scatenati ballando il canto dei partigiani. Il brano è molto noto nella penisola iberica, anche grazie alla serie Netflix "La Casa di Carta". Intanto la destra spagnola mantiene la maggioranza assoluta in vista delle elezioni anticipate del 29 novembre. Secondo la rilevazione flash di 40dB per El Pais e la Cadena Ser, realizzata su 800 interviste online tra mercoledì e…

Suggestioni e fattore. Anzi sarebbe meglio dire la suggestione del fattore. Francesca Albanese, relatrice speciale delle Nazioni Unite sui territori palestinesi occupati dal 2022, potrebbe essere un ulteriore coefficiente del campo largo? È la domanda che ieri ha mosso la penna de Il Foglio. Una suggestione che aleggia tra Movimento 5 Stelle e Alleanza verdi e sinistra. In realtà sono mesi che si parla di un possibile posto in lista per l’avvocato irpino, ma ogni volta emerge un particolare in più. La Albanese l’abbiamo vista a “Terra”, la festa nazionale di Avs, e qualche giorno dopo è stata di scena a “Nova. Parola all’Italia”, l’evento milanese del M5S. Ve ne abbiamo parlato diffusamente…

Il pericolo Vannacci? Al momento, almeno per il centrodestra di governo e Giorgia Meloni, non si è ancora rivelato un allarme da cui guadarsi. Luigi Crespi, in un articolo pubblicato sul Tempo, spiega che l'effetto del generale sui sondaggi politici è cambiato rispetto alle profezie della scorsa estate. "L’estate è finita e Vannacci ha mostrato una leadership senza profondità, incapace di andare oltre la provocazione e di offrire molto altro. I sondaggisti se ne sono accorti e, come si vede nella nostra tavola di riepilogo, stanno correggendo il tiro: qualcuno in fretta, qualcuno con più prudenza, nessuno con entusiasmo". E l'opposizione non ha saputo approfittare di questo fuoco di paglia…

Per decenni, è stata una paladina del diritto internazionale e dei diritti umani, nonché una voce ferma e indipendente a sostegno della giustizia nel corso di alcuni dei più storici procedimenti legali internazionali del nostro tempo.

Donald Trump annuncia un accordo con Vladimir Putin per aumentare le forniture di gasolio russo ai mercati internazionali e promette un rapido calo dei prezzi. L’intesa, resa nota dal presidente americano attraverso il social Truth, prevede consegne progressive di carburante e si accompagna alla sospensione temporanea delle sanzioni statunitensi sul diesel russo. "Ho appena concluso un colloquio di grande successo con il presidente russo Vladimir Putin", ha scritto Trump, precisando che Mosca fornirà immediatamente oltre 300mila tonnellate di gasolio, altre 500mila a novembre e un milione di tonnellate successivamente. In base alla capacità delle raffinerie russe, potrebbero aggiungersi…

(Agenzia Vista) Roma, 09 ottobre 2026 "Quello che una volta aveva sede naturale nelle pagine manoscritte del ricettario della nonna – lo dico col massimo rispetto per i nonni, categoria alla quale appartengo ormai da un po' di tempo – adesso ha necessità di distinte decisioni del Parlamento europeo, del Consiglio europeo, e dei Parlamenti e dei Governi di ciascun singolo Stato dell'UE. Vi risparmio il dettaglio e il contenuto, cioè la quantità di frutta naturale che è prevista frutto per frutto per ogni chilogrammo di marmellata. Ovviamente non ignoro gli interessi economici e l'esigenza di tutela della salute che sono a base di direttive come queste; solo mi domando se per ottenere un…

Uragano Isaias sulla Florida: stop al 72% del petrolio del Golfo Rischi per carburanti e raffinerie L’uragano Isaias ha toccato terra vicino a Destin, in Florida, come uragano di categoria 2, provocando allagamenti e interruzioni della rete elettrica. Dopo l’impatto si è indebolito fino alla categoria 1, ma resta l’allerta per mareggiate, inondazioni improvvise e ulteriori danni alle infrastrutture. Quasi 380mila utenti in Florida e oltre 210mila in Alabama erano senza elettricità nelle prime ore successive al passaggio della tempesta. Chiedilo al Sole L’impatto economico più immediato riguarda il settore energetico. In via precauzionale le compagnie hanno fermato circa 1,5 milioni di…

Stretto di Magellano, il traffico marittimo cresce del 70% L’incremento è dovuto alla decisione di molti armatori di evitare il Canale di Panama, dove la locale Autorità ha imposto restrizioni operative a causa della siccità legata a El Niño. Il traffico marittimo nello Stretto di Magellano ha registrato un incremento superiore al 70% tra agosto e settembre del 2026 rispetto allo stesso periodo dell’anno precedente, secondo le statistiche della Capitaneria di porto di Punta Arenas, dipendente dalla Marina del Cile.

Bombe guidate russe contro condominio a Zaporizhzhia: 7 morti Il presidente Usa Donald Trump ha stretto un accordo sul gasolio con il leader del Cremlino Vladimir Putin dopo che il presidente ucraino Volodymyr Zelensky ha ignorato le sue numerose richieste di fermare di attacchi contro le raffinerie di petrolio russe.

1968. Lima Site 44, 60 chilometri a nord di Vientiane, Laos: un elicottero si alza in volo. Sulla coda campeggia il marchio di Air America, ma c’è la CIA dietro l’operazione. Obiettivo: trasportare le truppe etniche Hmong, reclutate dagli americani contro le forze comuniste nel quadro della guerra del Vietnam. Sessant’anni dopo, Lima Site 44 ha un altro nome: si chiama Ban Keun. Stavolta sulla pista non ci sono più le bandiere a stelle e strisce, bensì quelle rosse a cinque stelle della Repubblica popolare cinese. Quello che resta invariato è la centralità della penisola indocinese nella competizione geopolitica tra grandi potenze. Il Ministero della Difesa di Pechino ha annunciato…

"Ho risolto otto guerre e ci vorrebbe un Nobel per ognuna. Non dimenticheremo il rifiuto della Norvegia di conferire il Nobel agli Stati Uniti". Lo ha detto Donald Trump. "Gli Stati Uniti, rappresentati da me, avrebbero dovuto ricevere il Nobel ma non lo hanno fatto. Questa è una macchia indelebile per la Norvegia. Non dimenticheremo, Norvegia", ha messo in evidenza.     "Il Nobel per la Pace - ha detto Trump - è stato screditato per sempre da un pugno di ideologi radicali. Hanno consegnato il premio Nobel a una persona mai sentita. Non avevo mai sentito il suo nome. Nessun presidente ha fatto quello che ho…

Last year, Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre explained to…

- Published Donald Trump's decision to import Russian fuel to the US represents a remarkable about-face from the president. Just three weeks ago, Trump signed legislation to authorise fresh American sanctions and tariffs on nations that import Russian oil and gas. Now, Trump says, Russian President Vladimir Putin has agreed to supply hundreds of thousands of tons of diesel fuel to the US and world markets in the coming months. The deal comes as Trump is still grappling with the political fallout of the Iran war and its impact on global energy prices, weeks before American voters head to the polls in the midterm elections. As the cost of fuel has skyrocketed in America, his standing with the…

Debra Robinson, the brothers' mother, told the courtroom that her sons' murders had taken "the future we had imagined with them". During the trial in the northern Baja California state, the court heard that the tourists were killed in an apparent botched robbery of their truck in a…

- Published They came in their thousands from near and far - men, women and children lined up on a Kentucky riverfront for the public hanging of a black man convicted of raping and killing an elderly white widow. It was 14 August 1936 in Owensboro, Kentucky, a sweltering Friday in the middle of a legendary heat wave. Some slept overnight near the gallows to preserve their spots. Others held "necktie" parties the previous evening, arriving hungover as teenagers sold popcorn and soda to the spectators. By the execution time of 5am, the crowd had swelled to an estimated 20,000. That's when Rainey Bethea, an orphan in his 20s, stepped up to the gallows - sentenced to death after allegedly…

Dressed in shorts, sandals and a dark baseball cap, the former Ukrainian Special Forces soldier strolled back and forth, chatting with the receptionist and dipping repeatedly into a bowl of free snacks. But German police were already closing in on him.

Next…

- Published Ukraine's President Volodymr Zelensky has condemned Donald Trump's announcement of a deal to import Russian diesel into the US. Zelensky called it a gift to Russian President Vladimir Putin that amounts to "an investment in a war that must be ended, not prolonged". Trump said Putin had agreed to release 300,000 tonnes of diesel immediately "to the American and global marketplace" followed by 500,000 tonnes in November and another million after that. It is understood the US Treasury is suspending sanctions on Russian diesel exports until 7 April as part of the deal, but other assets like those in American banks are still frozen. In his Truth Social post, Trump added that a…

The 40-year-old - who was only diagnosed with the deadly infectious disease after arriving seriously ill at a Nairobi hospital - became Kenya's first confirmed case. He died two days later on 5 October. That his infection went undetected at multiple health facilities in the Democratic Republic of Congo and two airport health screenings in Uganda and Kenya has raised serious questions about these nations' biosecurity during a significant outbreak.

Trump administration opposes all options for new UN chief — and wants new candidates “Good luck getting any Republican to support funding the U.N. regular budget” if current frontrunner Rebeca Grynspan of Costa Rica is selected, said one congressional aide. The Trump administration opposes all of the current crop of contenders to lead the United Nations — saying that none of them are sufficiently on board with President Donald Trump’s worldview and desire for drastic changes to the body, according to two people familiar with internal conversations. “The entire slate is lacking the reformers the U.S. would want. And some seem like even more business-as-usual types,” said one of the people…

Canadian cyber executive charged in federal hacking case It is not yet clear if Edward Dubrovsky’s arrest is related to a massive recent breach affecting the FBI. A cybersecurity executive from Canada who held senior roles at firms that helped data breach victims negotiate ransom payments with cyber criminals has been charged in a federal hacking and data extortion case. Edward Dubrovsky, who recently published a book on how to handle cyber extortion, is now charged with conspiracy to commit that very crime by threatening to disclose stolen or hacked data and interfering with interstate commerce through extortion, court records show.

Trump administration rebuffs Mamdani’s demand for ICE enforcement freeze after shooting The rejection raises uncomfortable questions for the New York City mayor, who has tried to maintain a cordial relationship with Trump. NEW YORK — A broad daylight shooting by federal immigration officers in New York City is putting the Mamdani-Trump bromance to the test. Hours after masked Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents peppered a car containing a five-year-old boy with bullets, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he’d spoken with President Donald Trump to demand an end to ICE operations in the city and the release of a 28-year-old man who was shot in the neck. Neither has happened. That left the mayor…

Trump says U.S. to get diesel from Russia, relaxing pressure on Moscow to ease prices before midterms WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said he has struck a deal to obtain diesel from Russia, a stunning reversal of years of U.S. pressure on Moscow over its war with Ukraine and an attempt to address high fuel prices ahead of the U.S. midterm elections. Trump said on social media on Friday that he struck the deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin in a phone call in which he was expected to discuss a suspected case of plague in Russia. Instead, Trump announced that Russia will immediately supply more than 300,000 tons of diesel, followed by an additional 500,000 tons in November and…

Hegseth faces bipartisan backlash over public execution for Fort Hood shooter Both Republican and Democratic critics said the plan was beneath the United States. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s surprise plan to livestream the military’s first execution in six decades drew fierce blowback from both sides of the aisle. Senior lawmakers from both parties said the plan to broadcast the scheduled Dec. 3 firing squad execution of former Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan amounted to a dishonorable public spectacle that could inspire terrorism. Hasan was court-martialed for the killing of 13 people in a 2009 shooting at Fort Hood, Texas, and sentenced to death. And while many Republicans back the death…

Even Trump voters think Republicans should split from the president to win A new POLITICO Poll found a notable 26% of people who backed Trump in 2024 were ready for GOP candidates to take that leap. One in four Trump voters say GOP candidates should break with the president to win in November, according to the latest POLITICO Poll, conducted by independent firm PF Global. The findings underscore the degree to which even loyal Republicans understand President Donald Trump is a drag on the ticket. Persistent inflation, $4 gas prices, 7% mortgage rates, a quagmire in the Middle East and a trade war with Canada have given Republican candidates no shortage of opportunities to take the president…

‘I’m allowed to have my own viewpoint’: Byron Donalds walks the Trump tightrope The Florida gubernatorial candidate told POLITICO’s “The Conversation” that the decision to remove the president from his website was made to focus on “the people of Florida.” Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) defended his relationship with President Donald Trump in an interview for POLITICO’s “The Conversation” podcast, backing some of Trump’s high-profile decisions while staking out some distance as he seeks to win his state’s governorship in November. In an interview with POLITICO’s Dasha Burns, Donalds said there is no tension between him and Trump, as he tries to win in a state that has rushed toward Republicans…

House Republicans are bracing for catastrophe in once safe red seats GOP internal polling revealed key House seats that Trump won comfortably in 2024 are now competitive. In late September, top Republicans across House GOP leadership, leading political operations and individual campaigns received a trove of internal polling. It sparked a new level of panic. The polling didn’t just reveal a harsh environment for the party in power on par with typical midterms, but rather some close-to-catastrophic scenarios in a slew of formerly safe red seats across the country, according to three people with direct knowledge of the matter who were granted anonymity to discuss private information. Key seats…

Nobel Peace Prize Goes to Former ICC Judge The United States imposed new sanctions on the international body in response.

The Global Diesel Crisis, Explained How did the world reach a tipping point, and who holds the leverage? The price of diesel fuel—which moves tractors, trains, and ships around the world—has recently surged, almost doubling in the last two years. The causes of that increase are wide-ranging, from the wars in Iran and Ukraine to policy decisions in Europe and Asia. The resulting crisis is already hitting anyone who uses a diesel-powered vehicle and could soon affect consumers everywhere. What exactly is diesel? How did Europe become so dependent on it? And who has leverage in the current crisis? The price of diesel fuel—which moves tractors, trains, and ships around the world—has recently…

“China has a more promising chance of shepherding mankind into political unity than any other country,” wrote Britain’s most famous historian in 1974. Arnold Toynbee, historian and prognosticator, was once famous enough to appear on the cover of Time magazine in 1947, but he is almost unheard of in the West today. Yet his legacy lives on in Asia, where Zhang Guangzhi of Fudan University’s history department can recall Toynbee rising from obscurity to acclaim as the greatest modern historian. Today, Zhang is one of dozens of scholars working to translate the entirety of Toynbee’s 3-million-word magnum opus, A Study of History, into Chinese. Toynbee, born in 1889, came of age as World War I…

Russian Sabotage in Europe Is No Longer ‘Symbolic’ The Kremlin’s strategy has entered a dangerous new phase, Estonia’s counterintelligence chief says. As a campaign of Russian sabotage sweeps across Europe, Estonia is seeing a shift in what targets Moscow chooses to go after, the Baltic nation’s counterintelligence chief told Foreign Policy in an interview on Wednesday. “Initially, these attacks were more against symbolic objects,” said Margo Palloson, who has served as the director-general of the Estonian Internal Security Service since 2023. Those attacks included vandalizing Estonian opinion-makers’ cars, burning Ukrainian flags, and carrying out an arson attack on a Ukrainian…

The United States Is Not Ready for the Arctic Age Rana Foroohar’s “Sea Change” shows why Washington can’t compete at the top of the world. “WE DON’T NEED CANADA, THEY NEED US!” Donald Trump wrote on TruthSocial in late August, after he announced a fresh round of tariffs on exports from the United States’ northern neighbor. Seen from the lower latitudes, this was just another of the president’s tirades, straining both the caps-lock key and credulity, but in fact, the United States depends a great deal on Canada, to the tune of 4 million barrels of crude oil a day, plus electricity, aluminum, auto parts, and much else besides. Viewed from the vicinity of the North Pole, the gap between…

How Italy Spawned the Western Far Right A longtime Rome correspondent reflects on the political trends in his adopted home. To tourists or casual observers, Italy might appear to be one giant museum—brimming with beautiful art but somewhat stuck in the past—that plays only a marginal role in global affairs. A new book by Jason Horowitz, an American journalist who spent much of the last quarter century in Italy, paints a different picture: of a nation that has served as a laboratory for political trends that spread across Europe and the United States. After learning the ropes of journalism in Rome working for a variety of news outlets, Horowitz married the daughter of an Italian diplomat…

Americans can't seem to get on the same page when it comes to what defines socialism even though new polling shows the movement's favorability is at an all-time high. Whether far-left factions are able to rally around the label could come down to understand its principles. Fox News Digital took to the streets of a Maryland liberal hotspot, Takoma Park, for its annual street festival to talk with attendees about their definitions of socialism and how far they would be willing to go to embrace its ideals. "The fact is that there's no…one answer," Nina Gilden Seavey said when asked to define socialism. "Just the idea of like, you've been paying all these things to set up these programs and…

Texas Democratic U.S. Senate nominee James Talarico reappeared on the campaign trail Friday after a nearly two-week absence, ending days of speculation and criticism from political opponents regarding his whereabouts.

The post included a video of the candidate walking through crowds and greeting supporters at the Austin City Limits Music Festival. Talarico, who is challenging Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in a closely watched U.S. Senate contest, had not been seen publicly in person at a campaign event since late September.…

More than 100 rounds fired in a Minnesota neighborhood have left police struggling to explain a troubling pattern: Somali American youths from financially comfortable households are turning online disputes into gang violence. The violence raises bigger questions about what is driving these gangs and whether struggles to fit into American life, cultural or clan ties, government policies or failures by schools and other institutions have played a role and what makes these youths different from traditional American street gangs. "They're coming from families. They got money, and they have resources," Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges told Fox News Digital of the young Somali American gang…

New York Democratic Attorney General Letitia James went silent for several seconds when asked to name a former state attorney general she admired during Thursday's New York attorney general race debate. "Tick tock," Errol Louis of Spectrum News 1, one of the moderators said to James, prompting laughter from the Attorney General. The attorney general's race in New York comes against the backdrop of James' ongoing dispute with President Donald Trump, who called James "a Complete and Total Disaster" and accused her of leading a "WITCH Hunt" against him in his endorsement of James' Republican challenger, Saritha Komatireddy, in August. The pause from James drew immediate criticism from…

FBI Director Kash Patel announced Friday that agents arrested another suspected co-conspirator linked to the ShinyHunters hacking group earlier this week during the bureau's investigation of a cybersecurity incident involving its jobs website. The arrest is the latest in a series of FBI actions against the hacking network in recent days, according to Patel, who said investigators are pursuing additional leads and evidence.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Friday that the Trump administration is imposing sweeping financial sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC), a body the president has sought to dismantle throughout his second term. To date, the administration has sanctioned 17 individuals with ties to the ICC, including judges and prosecutors. The latest move marks the first time the U.S. has gone after the institution itself. "Our message is clear: The United States and the American people are not subject to the jurisdiction of this fake ICC," Rubio said in a pre-recorded video message released Friday morning. "Both parties agree on this, but only President Trump has the resolve to take…

A South Carolina Democrat running for U.S. Senate who previously opposed legislation restricting transgender athletes' participation in girls' sports is now emphasizing her opposition to biological males participating in female athletics as President Donald Trump targets her record ahead of the midterm elections. Trump took aim at Annie Andrews, a pediatrician challenging Republican Sen. Darline Graham, in a series of Truth Social posts this week, dubbing her "Annie Trannie" and accusing her of supporting transgender policies that are out of step with South Carolina voters. The president also shared an attack ad accusing Andrews of supporting biological males competing against female…

If this was a fight they would have stopped it," the president declared in a Truth Social post issued shortly after midnight on Friday. "Mohammad is a Jihadist lunatic who hates our Country, the Black People of Detroit, and wants to see the U.S. fail. Short on Stature, Patriotism, and Truth, Mohammed’s statements have been loaded up with lies and deceit. I…

President Donald Trump has set up a committee to investigate Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over allegations she made false statements on mortgage documents, the same accusations Trump has cited for over a year in a bid to remove her from office. Trump attempted to remove Cook in August 2025, triggering a lengthy legal battle that culminated in the Supreme Court blocking her firing in June 2026. In a 5-4 ruling, the court ruled she had not been given adequate time to respond to the allegations against her. This newly-formed committee appears to be the process the White House has settled on to give Cook a chance to advocate for herself, as she will be allowed to submit a written…

A California ballot measure on voter identification provides voters with guidance replete with far-left jargon, including a dig at "MAGA billionaires," that has turned heads online. Proposition 39 is a citizen-led effort, organized by a group called Californians for Voter ID, that submitted 1.3 million signatures in favor of the ballot initiative in March — far outpacing the required nearly 875,000 signatures in order for it to be adopted as a ballot measure. Californians are slated to vote on the voter ID initiative in November. If approved, it would require a government-issued identification card or number to vote in person or by mail. It would also require election officials to verify…

Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson made a bold prediction about the midterms, declaring that Donald Trump will win. There’s just one problem: the president isn’t on any ballot Tyson made the baffling comment while speaking to reporters in the White House briefing room Friday before accompanying Trump to a political rally in Syracuse, New York. When a reporter asked Tyson, who was smiling, what he and the president had talked about, he responded “golly,” and dodged the seemingly simple question. He then turned to White House aides, saying, “I can’t believe you guys put me up here.” A White House staffer piped up, “No tough questions.” ADVERTISEMENT Asked whether Republicans would…

President Donald Trump’s new press secretary has a history of spreading misinformation, from election denialism to an extreme claim linking the abortion pill mifepristone to Nazi concentration camps.

Donald Trump has brutally snubbed the one-time favorite to succeed Karoline Leavitt as White House press secretary. Critics of CNN’s token MAGA host took a victory lap Friday after the president passed over Scott Jennings, 48, to hire conservative commentator Katie Zacharia, 41, as the White House’s newest mouthpiece.

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin erupted at a reporter who asked him about claims that ICE agents had been instructed to increase daily immigration arrests. During a Friday press conference in Washington, D.C., Mullin sought to defend ICE’s actions after an agent shot and wounded 28-year-old Oscar Belgal in New York City on Thursday while a 5-year-old boy was in his car.

President Donald Trump has turned to Russian President Vladimir Putin to save him as he faces widespread frustration over soaring energy costs ahead of the midterms. In a surprise announcement Friday, the 80-year-old president made no mention of Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine while revealing his deal with the Kremlin for diesel— his solution, apparently, to skyrocketing diesel prices caused by his war in Iran.

The U.S. last held a public execution in the 1930s. The Pentagon wants to change that The Pentagon says it will livestream the planned military execution of Nidal Hasan, the former Army psychiatrist who killed 13 people and wounded 32 at Fort Hood, Texas, in 2009. Hasan, 56, has been on military death row since his conviction and sentencing in 2013. His case returned to the public spotlight this week when the Pentagon announced that President Trump had approved his death by firing squad — a first for the military since World War II. The Pentagon says Hasan's execution will take place on the afternoon of Dec. 3 at Fort Hood, the site of his shooting rampage. On Thursday, Defense Secretary…

U.S. working to reverse an Egyptian man's third-country deportation to Africa The Trump administration on Friday said it has started to facilitate the return to the U.S. of an Egyptian man who was deported to Equatorial Guinea, in a rare case of the government working to reverse a third-country deportation. A federal judge in Arizona earlier this week ordered the Department of Homeland Security to return Ahmed Soliman to the U.S. from the country in central Africa where he has no ties, and respond how it plans to do so. The administration said it is working "collaboratively" with Soliman's lawyers to find and contact him, and is "beginning the process to facilitate" his return, according to…

Did Russia play by the rules in reporting lab worker's death? A 28-year-old woman died in Russia last week and, since then, speculations about the case have ricocheted around the globe. The woman was a lab technician at a Russian research institute that studies the plague. As unverified rumors have circulated that she may have contracted the disease from a lab leak, President Trump, the World Health Organization and other leaders are asking for more information. Russia has insisted this is not a health emergency and stated that its health authorities have not found dangerous pathogens in any of the deceased woman's contacts. But there are still far more questions than answers. That…

How the oil industry is preparing for Hurricane Isaias Hurricane Isaias, the first Atlantic hurricane of the season, is expected to make landfall on Friday evening near the Alabama Gulf Coast and Florida panhandle. Days ago, the oil industry around the U.S. Gulf Coast started preparing. A segment of the nation's oil infrastructure — like oil rigs and platforms — operates in the region, although the majority of it is further west, towards western Louisiana and Texas. Although oil experts are not anticipating major disruptions, oil companies have been taking precautions. Shell and BP have evacuated personnel from offshore facilities close to the storm's path, mainly deepwater platforms.…

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — President Donald Trump took a break from his midterm blitz of campaign rallies in Republican-leaning states to visit Upstate New York to stump for the GOP nominee for governor, Bruce Blakeman, and deliver a speech in which he said Americans were experiencing a “golden age” under his tenure.

Following days of increasingly fevered speculation about his extended absence from the public eye while reportedly sick, James Talarico, the Democratic Senate nominee in Texas, was spotted Friday at the Austin City Limits music festival. Democracy Dies in Darkness

D.C. judge bars DOJ from gathering states’ voter lists to find noncitizens Voting rights groups had challenged the effort, noting federal data includes errors that have led to citizens being wrongly removed from electoral rolls. A federal judge on Friday blocked the Justice Department’s policy of gathering voter registration lists from states, running names through a federal database and telling states to remove suspected noncitizens.

The Cook Political Report, the nonpartisan election prognosticator, moved 18 more House seats toward favoring Democrats on Friday. Two Iowa seats — held by Republican Reps. Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Zach Nunn — and two Pennsylvania seats, held by Republican Reps. Ryan Mackenzie and Scott Perry, moved from being rated as toss-ups to “lean Democratic.” Additionally, Democratic Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez’s race in Washington state went from toss-up to lean Democratic.

A Republican group linked to President Donald Trump began airing an attack ad on Friday targeting Jonathan Nez, the former president of the Navajo Nation and Democrat running against Rep. Eli Crane (R-Arizona).

Surveys released this week offered new insights on how Americans might make decisions in the midterm elections. Methodology, including sample sizes and margins of errors, are available in the links to these polls:

As pro-Trump rulings boost Justice Alito’s stature, retirement speculation swirls Samuel A.

Democrat Troy Jackson has a slight edge over Republican Sen. Susan Collins with less than a month before Election Day in the Senate battleground Maine, a Washington Post-Schar School poll finds. Jackson attracts 50 percent of likely voters compared with Collins’s 46 percent in the poll of 800 likely voters conducted Sept. 30 to Oct. 5, before the two faced off this week in the first of four debates. Jackson’s lead is within the range of sampling error.

NASA has just released about 800 gigabytes of scientific data generated by the Artemis II mission. The archive documenting the astronauts’ return to the far side of the moon includes 11,000 full-resolution images and videos, 8.5 hours of spoken observations, notes taken by the astronauts, transcripts, and photographs from the cameras aboard the Orion capsule. The space agency describes this effort as the first set of planetary science data obtained outside Earth and—for the most part—directly by humans in more than half a century. The closest comparable precedent dates back to the Apollo era and its missions to the lunar surface. In addition to the public database, NASA released three…

Okinawa’s September 2026 election made headlines as incumbent Denny Tamaki was ousted by the Liberal Democratic Party’s (LDP) preferred candidate, Koja Genta. Koja became the first LDP-backed candidate to win the position since Hirokazu Nakaima in 2006. Tamaki and his predecessor, the late Onaga Takeshi, vocally opposed the expansion of the U.S. Marine Corps’ Camp Schwab in Henoko and were generally critical of Okinawa’s excessive base burden, relative to other Japanese prefectures. Newly-elected Governor Koja was perceived by the LDP-led Japanese government to be more favorable to the U.S. bases in Okinawa, specifically the completion of the relocation of Marine Corps Air Station Futenma…

On October 6, CNN reported that the United States and China are engaged in informal, preliminary discussion on reciprocal visits to nuclear facilities. According to the report, the idea was first raised by the Chinese side in meetings with U.S. officials this year, during which the two sides discussed U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories and their Chinese counterparts. The same source also indicated that the U.S. side is willing to discuss visits to nuclear test sites. At the China-U.S. leaders’ summit held in September, the two sides agreed to build “a constructive relationship of strategic stability on the basis of respect, fairness, and reciprocity.” According to CNN, however…

MAGA’s Self-Destructive Culture War Polls suggest that MAGA fanaticism might not be playing so well outside US President Donald Trump’s loyal base. But if the Democrats want to retake one or both chambers of Congress, they should concentrate on the economy and not answer Republican extremism with a culture war of their own. NEW YORK—There are many reasons why then-US Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris lost the US presidential election to Donald Trump two years ago. Her campaign started too late. She inherited a great deal of anger against US President Joe Biden. And Trump is a gifted demagogue, who knows how to exploit fear-driven rage and hostility.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government is framing the move as cleaning India’s electoral register – which included around 970 million people before the changes – of dead or duplicate voters. But many people say the purge has disenfranchised them. Critics argue that voters who are less likely to support Modi’s BJP party, such as India’s 200 million Muslims, are disproportionately being cut. The exercise could erode public faith in India’s electoral system, which stood at 74% according to 2025 Pew polling, and cast doubt on the legitimacy of the country’s 2029 election.

Ventitré anni dopo l'invasione del 2003, la fine della presenza militare americana in Iraq viene letta a Baghdad come un guadagno di Stato. Per il Libano, la retorica prevalente, dentro e fuori il paese, continua invece a descrivere ogni partenza di truppe straniere come l'apertura di un "vuoto" che gli armati si incaricheranno di riempire.  Questo scarto, che va ben oltre il lessico e investe il modo stesso di concepire la sovranità, si impone proprio ora che la guerra americana all'Iran resta incagliata tra Hormuz e Bab al-Mandab.

Come le scosse di assestamento di un terremoto, che possono arrivare anche molto tempo dopo il sisma iniziale, il 7 ottobre 2023 continua a scuotere il Medio Oriente. A tre anni di distanza da quel giorno fatidico, il paesaggio regionale è segnato dalle guerre, dalle fratture e dai conflitti senza soluzione: da Rafah, nella Striscia di Gaza, a Hormuz, nel golfo Persico; da Naqura, nel sud del Libano, a Moka, in Yemen. Tutto questo, evidentemente, non è cominciato il 7 ottobre. La dinamica si era già messa in moto da tempo e ognuno dei conflitti citati ha vissuto numerosi episodi molto prima del 2023. Tuttavia, l’attacco di Hamas contro le comunità del sud di Israele – con il suo carattere…

In headline after headline this year, American book publishers have appeared to be fighting back against generative AI, from suing Google for copyright infringement to canceling books by authors suspected of using LLMs. But behind the scenes, at least three of the Big Five US book publishers—HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, and Hachette—have been quietly incorporating AI tools into their publishing processes without public disclosures or author consent. According to interviews with more than two dozen workers, all of whom spoke under the condition of anonymity to avoid jeopardizing their employment, publishers are now using LLMs like Claude and ChatGPT to email literary agents, write…

SpaceX compie un passo per entrare a pieno titolo nel mercato delle telecomunicazioni mobili negli Stati Uniti. La compagnia, come spiega una nota ufficiale, ha concluso l'acquisizione di un pacchetto di licenze per frequenze a banda bassa con l'obiettivo di trasformare Starlink Mobile in un operatore. L'operazione, che attende ora il via libera formale della Federal Communications Commission, permetterà di affiancare alla costellazione satellitare una vera e propria infrastruttura di rete terrestre, aprendo la competizione con marchi storici come T-Mobile, At&t e Verizon. Come spiega una nota dell'azienda, un punto di svolta potrebbe essere nelle frequenze a disposizione, fino a 14 Mhz…

This is today's edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what's going on in the world of technology. We’re putting too much faith in AI’s ability to say no Today’s AI models are trained to refuse a vast number of prompts. If you ask your chatbot how to poison a colleague or how to tie a noose, chances are it’ll turn you down. But refusal fails, sometimes horrifically. Some people are attempting to use AI to hone biological pathogens and build autonomous drone swarms. Sooner or later, failed refusals may result in global calamity. What’s more, relying on refusal means drawing a line between what a model should obey and what it must disobey. Governments…

Ever since people first seriously contemplated giving machines an intelligence modeled on our own, there has never been any question that they would, like us, be able to say no. The sci-fi canon is full of stories of robotic disobedience. Most of these capers are, of course, cautionary. But recently, the idea that AI shouldn’t do everything you ask has become something like a commandment. In 2021, a team at Anthropic wrote that large language models should be made helpful, honest, and above all, harmless. This meant that “when asked to aid in a dangerous act (e.g. building a bomb), the AI should politely refuse.” Who can argue with that? Curiously enough, disobedience doesn’t come naturally…

The moment Trevor Wischnewsky heard that drones were delivering pizza and sushi around his Texas neighborhood, his mind was made up. “It was super fascinating,” he says. “I just immediately wanted to be a part of it.” Wischnewsky is now an RPIC, or “remote pilot in command,” at a company called FlyTrex. An RPIC is like an air traffic controller. But instead of airplanes, this new class of aviators tend to fleets of hexacopter drones that ferry cargo to homes and businesses within a three-mile radius. Not only does he ensure the safe passage of FlyTrex’s parcels, but Wischnewsky coordinates traffic with a growing swarm of delivery drones dotting the skies over Dallas from competitors like…

This week my colleague Antonio Regalado had an interesting update on GLP-1 weight-loss drugs. According to research presented at an aging meeting in Boston, these drugs seem to affect at least some measures of biological age. Overweight and diabetic people who take GLP-1s have a biological age around two to three years younger than similar individuals who take a placebo, according to findings from Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk, two pharmaceutical companies that make the drugs. I’ve heard people in the aging field describe GLP-1s as longevity drugs for a while now (even if they only benefit people who are overweight or diabetic in the first place). This latest announcement comes after we’ve…

U.S. President Donald Trump’s push for a fourth summit with Kim Jong Un has so far been rejected by the North Korean leader, who may be playing hard to get. However, based on our decades analyzing North Korea, participation in countless face-to-face meetings with North Koreans – official and unofficial – and numerous visits to North Korea, we think that some in Pyongyang may believe their country could benefit greatly from a fourth summit, though not in terms of what Washington may think. In view of North Korea and Kim’s experience, especially his three summits during Trump’s first term in office, and Pyongyang’s analysis of the president’s current foreign policy, the North Korean Foreign…

The French Far Right Embraces Austerity In a recent speech detailing her economic program, the French far-right leader Marine Le Pen offered what can only be described as a populist vision of fiscal consolidation. Whether she can make such a paradoxical formulation work will now determine her own future, and possibly that of Europe’s nationalist right. PARIS—Marine Le Pen, the leader of the far-right National Rally (RN) in France, has unveiled an economic program centered on rapid fiscal consolidation—more commonly known as austerity. In doing so, she has broken sharply with her own party’s past and aligned herself more closely with a longstanding trend on the European right.

Rating Africa on Its Own Terms For decades, African countries' borrowing costs have been largely determined by major credit-rating agencies whose methods overlook key features of these economies' institutions and markets.

NAIROBI—Imagine taking an exam and answering every question correctly, only to fail because your paper was graded against the answer key for a different exam. That, in a nutshell, is what happens when African institutions are assessed by major credit-rating agencies like Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P.

The most important shift in artificial intelligence (AI) is not that models are becoming more intelligent, but that they are becoming more capable of acting. Much of the first wave of AI safety governance focused on misinformation, bias, deepfakes, privacy violations and harmful content. Those risks remain. But increasingly capable AI agents can plan, write and execute code, use tools, obtain credentials, and interact with external systems. Recent incidents in which OpenAI’s autonomous systems slipped past their constraints show that as agents gain tools and autonomy, the boundary between a model and the outside world becomes harder to enforce. That makes AI safety a collective-action…

On October 8, Turkmenistan hosted a flurry of region meetings in Avaza, including the 8th Consultative Meeting of the Heads of State of Central Asia and Azerbaijan, and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) Council of Heads of State, as well as related foreign minister-level meetings. According to Turkmen state media, Turkmen President Serdar Berdimuhamedov laid out “five key objectives,” which included “building the potential of the six-party format,” ensuring lasting peace and stability in the region, joint efforts “to transform Central Asia and Azerbaijan into key transport, logistics, energy, and industrial hubs on the continent in the East-West and North-South directions,”…

The French Far Right Embraces Austerity In a recent speech detailing her economic program, the French far-right leader Marine Le Pen offered what can only be described as a populist vision of fiscal consolidation. Whether she can make such a paradoxical formulation work will now determine her own future, and possibly that of Europe’s nationalist right. PARIS—Marine Le Pen, the leader of the far-right National Rally (RN) in France, has unveiled an economic program centered on rapid fiscal consolidation—more commonly known as austerity. In doing so, she has broken sharply with her own party’s past and aligned herself more closely with a longstanding trend on the European right.

Rating Africa on Its Own Terms For decades, African countries' borrowing costs have been largely determined by major credit-rating agencies whose methods overlook key features of these economies' institutions and markets. The new Africa Credit Rating Agency could mark a turning point, challenging how the continent’s credit risk is graded and priced. NAIROBI—Imagine taking an exam and answering every question correctly, only to fail because your paper was graded against the answer key for a different exam. That, in a nutshell, is what happens when African institutions are assessed by major credit-rating agencies like Fitch, Moody’s, and S&P.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s push for a fourth summit with Kim Jong Un has so far been rejected by the North Korean leader, who may be playing hard to get. However, based on our decades analyzing North Korea, participation in countless face-to-face meetings with North Koreans – official and unofficial – and numerous visits to North Korea, we think that some in Pyongyang may believe their country could benefit greatly from a fourth summit, though not in terms of what Washington may think. In view of North Korea and Kim’s experience, especially his three summits during Trump’s first term in office, and Pyongyang’s analysis of the president’s current foreign policy, the North Korean Foreign…

Development Finance Needs More Than One Currency and For many developing countries, renminbi-denominated loans offer a credible, increasingly accessible, and cost-effective alternative to borrowing in dollars. Now that the stability and predictability of US economic policies and institutions are in question, the Chinese currency is becoming more attractive. BEIJING/BOSTON—The global development-finance gap remains large, and developing countries need more options. According to UN Trade and Development, developing countries face an annual shortfall of $4 trillion in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Yet for much of the postwar era, development finance has been predominantly…

Mélenchon Is Right About France’s Debt When, in the name of moderation, centrists brand every sensible alternative to severe austerity as “nonsense,” they leave voters only one electable rebellion on offer, and the far right is happy to supply it. That is what is happening in France today. ATHENS—The sorry state of France’s public schools, which sparked angry demonstrations across the country, was a symptom of chronic austerity. But that did not stop the sirens of deeper austerity from rehearsing their song. Emmanuel Moulin, the governor of France’s central bank, is calling for large budget cuts to avert the “risk of being gradually strangled by rising interest rates.” If that happens…

Fukuyama, Thiel, and the Revenge of the Last Man NEW YORK—In the Realm of the Last Man, the title of Stanford University political scientist Francis Fukuyama’s new memoir, is an unmistakable reference to his 1992 bestseller The End of History and the Last Man. The reason he chose it, Fukuyama explained, was that people had ignored his famous book’s warning that “democracy could break down in the future because of some of the intrinsic stresses within a liberal order”—stresses born of the discontent of those whose desire for recognition exceeds what liberal democracy can satisfy.

Ethiopia claims “all-out invasion” by Eritrea Ethiopia has told the UN that troops from neighboring Eritrea penetrated at least 60 meters across the border as long-standing tensions between the two East African countries threaten to boil over again. At issue is access to the Red Sea, which Ethiopia lost when Eritrea became independent after 30 years of war in 1993. The two sides signed a historic peace accord in 2018, and a heavily militarized Eritrea supported the Ethiopian government in its war against Tigray rebels from 2020 to 2022. But relations frayed soon Eritrea viewed as a threat. In recent weeks, border tensions have flared again, while the Ethiopian government has also accused…

La versione integrale della carta si trova alla fine dell'articolo. La carta inedita a colori della settimana è dedicata al "Mediterraneo americano". La mappa illustra i traffici e le pressioni geopolitiche nel grande specchio d'acqua incastonato tra le Americhe: dal contrabbando di carburante al narcotraffico, dalla logistica mercantile ai dispositivi per lo spionaggio, dagli investimenti cinesi alle preoccupazioni statunitensi. Degli interessi americani nel Golfo del Messico e nel Mar dei Caraibi ha scritto Francesco Zampieri nel numero di Limes 8/2026 "Cuba patria e morte": ❝ I timori di interferenze esterne nella regione non sono una novità.

Il 15 settembre, dopo oltre ottant'anni dall’ultima azione bellica dell’Aeronautica italiana, due caccia tricolori decollano nella notte dalla base di Šiauliai e distruggono un drone russo nei cieli lituani. Se la reazione tattica è avvenuta in minuti, la comprensione dell’evento ha richiesto più tempo 1. L’episodio, pur minore, rende al meglio uno dei principali problemi della guerra futura: non la velocità, ma la crescente distanza fra gli orologi che convivono nella stessa catena decisionale. Il radar classifica l’oggetto.

- Published US President Donald Trump has once again made complaints that he did not receive the Nobel Peace Prize, calling this year's decision "disgraceful and embarrassing". The prize was awarded to former International Criminal Court judge Navi Pillay on Friday. Hours after the announcement, Donald Trump told a rally he had "never heard" of the "mystery person". "This is an indelible stain on the country of Norway" he said, adding "we will not forget". Trump has been outspoken about his desire to win the prize, and made similar criticisms in 2025 when it was awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado. Last year, Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre explained to…

Trump boosts a New York ally in a tough race GOP gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman hasn’t hesitated to tie himself to the president. SYRACUSE, New York — President Donald Trump came to New York on Friday to help a Republican win an uphill race for governor. But his visit was also a reminder of the complicated role he plays in his party’s fight to keep control of Congress. Trump rallied alongside GOP gubernatorial nominee Bruce Blakeman, calling on New Yorkers to fire Gov. Kathy Hochul and, referring to the state attorney general, “her totally corrupt sidekick, Letitia ‘Peekaboo’ James.” “Your city and state are dirty, filthy places, and everybody wants to leave,” he told some 5,000…

Trump rallied supporters in Syracuse with a sweeping celebration of his administration's economic and immigration agenda, pledging to help New Yorkers secure lower taxes, cheaper energy and safer streets by electing Republicans up and down the ballot. "We're in the Golden Age of America," Trump told the crowd, urging supporters to deliver the same enthusiasm that powered his presidential campaigns. "Please…

President Donald Trump has set up a committee to investigate Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over allegations she made false statements on mortgage documents, the same accusations Trump has cited for over a year in a bid to remove her from office. Trump attempted to remove Cook in August 2025, triggering a lengthy legal battle that culminated in the Supreme Court blocking her firing in June 2026. In a 5-4 ruling, the court ruled she had not been given adequate time to respond to the allegations against her. This newly-formed committee appears to be the process the White House has settled on to give Cook a chance to advocate for herself, as she will be allowed to submit a written…

President Donald Trump has escalated the fight against Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, creating a commission to assess the mortgage fraud allegations that his allies have levied against her. The committee will report to Trump “whether there is ‘cause’ for Governor Cook’s removal,” according to a memorandum dated Oct. 7. It will consider the evidence during a closed-door hearing at the White House scheduled for Nov. 5.
