Jewish Australians said they felt unsafe, angry and frustrated at the perceived government's failure to confront rising antisemitism after a deadly shooting at a Hanukkah festival in Sydney’s Bondi Beach last week.
Australian police on Wednesday charged Naveed Akram with 59 offences, including terrorism, after he allegedly opened fire at a Jewish event on Sydney’s Bondi Beach.
Myanmar's junta on Wednesday said it was pursuing charges against more than 200 people for alleged disruption of upcoming elections under new laws banning criticism of upcoming elections, which rights groups and the UN have dismissed as a sham to entrench military rule.
The visitors trail 1-0 after being thrashed by nine wickets last week in Wellington and have not won in their previous seven Tests. The first Test at Christchurch was drawn. "Guys had some time to reflect," Chase said on Wednesday of the heavy defeat at the Basin Reserve. "We had a bit of a chat and we had a team bonding session, a Christmas dinner. Just enjoying each other's company." The players ran a Secret Santa, with Chase receiving an Adidas tracksuit and a blender. "My guy was Jayden... Читать дальше...
Forward Anunoby rattled in five three-pointers and point guard Jalen Brunson finished with 25 points as New York clinched their first silverware since the 1973 NBA Finals at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. San Antonio went into the final brimming with confidence after upsetting top seeds and reigning NBA champions Oklahoma City in Saturday's semi-finals thanks to a superb display from French prodigy Victor Wembanyama. But a dogged all-round performance from New York kept Wembanyama in check and... Читать дальше...
Here's what we know about one of Australia's deadliest mass shootings. Gunfire at Bondi Sajid Akram, 50, and his son Naveed, 24, used long-barrelled guns to fire on Jewish crowds packing Bondi Beach for Hanukkah on Sunday evening. Authorities said they deliberately targeted a busy Hanukkah event, which drew around 1,000 people to the famous surf spot. Toll Among the 15 killed were a 10-year-old girl, two Holocaust survivors and a married couple shot dead as they tried to thwart the attack. Forty-two... Читать дальше...
Onlookers sobbed as the hearse carrying the 41-year-old -- known as the "Bondi rabbi" -- pulled up and his coffin, emblazoned with a black velvet cloth bearing the Star of David, was unloaded. As a steady stream of mourners filed in, two overcome young women threw themselves over the casket, howling in grief. More cries reverberated down the mostly silent street before everyone was ushered inside. Chief Rabbi Yehoram Ulman choked back tears as he paid tribute to his son-in-law Schlanger. "You're my son...

Bolsonaro, 70, began serving a 27-year prison sentence in November after his conviction for a botched coup bid after his 2022 election loss. After months of jockeying by his supporters in Congress for some sort of amnesty for the far-right leader, the conservative-controlled lower house last week approved a bill that would significantly reduce sentences for several crimes, including coup d'etat. This opens up the prospect that Bolsonaro could serve only two years in jail. Under current rules... Читать дальше...
Jevon McSkimming, who until late last year was New Zealand's second-highest ranking police officer, was arrested and charged in June with eight counts of possessing objectionable material. The 52-year-old admitted to three charges in November, including possession of child sexual exploitation and bestiality images which were stored on his work devices. Judge Tim Black handed down a nine-month home detention sentence in the Wellington District Court on Wednesday, ruling McSkimming would not have to register as a child sexual offender.

Eurovision organisers announced Monday that 35 countries would take part in the world's biggest live televised music event in May -- the fewest since entry was expanded in 2004. The number would have been even lower, but for Bulgaria, Romania and Moldova rejoining the glitzy annual extravaganza. Once the lights go up in Vienna, Eurovision 2026 may look very much like a regular edition. However, the boycott will cast a shadow over proceedings -- and may remain the biggest talking point. For William Lee Adams... Читать дальше...
The fist-sized sample drilled from a mountaintop is part of an ambitious international effort to understand why glaciers in Tajikistan have resisted the rapid melting seen almost everywhere else. "If we could learn the mechanism behind the increased volume of ice there, then we may be able to apply that to all the other glaciers around the world," potentially even helping revive them, said Iizuka, a professor at Hokkaido University. "That may be too ambitious a statement. But I hope our study will ultimately help people," he said. Читать дальше...
Here's what we know about the row: - Why Florida? - Trump filed the lawsuit in a federal court in Miami, Florida, the state where he is a legal resident and where he has filed previous lawsuits against US media outlets. His lawyers argue that many of the scenes in the Panorama documentary -- which aired in Britain in October 2024 -- were shot in Florida, including around Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort. He was too late to file a libel claim in the UK, which generally has a one-year time limit to bring such cases. Читать дальше...
Smith, who captained the team to emphatic eight-wicket wins in Perth and Brisbane, missed training on Monday citing illness but batted on Tuesday and was initially named in the starting XI. He was on the field at Adelaide Oval but walked off 20 minutes before the toss shaking his head after a chat with coach Andrew McDonald. "Over the past few days he has been feeling unwell, with symptoms including nausea and dizziness," Cricket Australia said.

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that the US will impose a blockade on all “sanctioned oil tankers” entering or leaving Venezuela, dramatically escalating his administration’s campaign against President Nicolás Maduro. The move follows the recent seizure of an oil tanker off Venezuela’s coast and a growing US military buildup in the region.
The United States has for months been building a major military deployment in the Caribbean -- with the stated goal of combatting Latin American drug trafficking, but taking particular aim at Venezuela. Caracas views the operation as a campaign to push out leftist strongman Nicolas Maduro -- whom Washington and many nations view as an illegitimate president -- and to "steal" Venezuelan oil. Tensions have been mounting for weeks as Trump signals intent to launch military action inside Venezuela... Читать дальше...
Chelsea moved into the semi-finals thanks to Alejandro Garnacho's double and a Pedro Neto strike after David Turnbull equalised for League One leaders Cardiff. The Blues didn't have it all their own way in a hard-fought clash, but reaching a third semi-final in 18 months provided further evidence of Maresca's impact since he arrived from Leicester in 2024. It was a well-timed victory after Maresca claimed following Saturday's 2-0 win over Everton that the previous 48 hours had been his worst at... Читать дальше...
In a sombre start to the first major sporting event in Australia since Sunday's attack left 15 dead and dozens wounded, both sides bowed their heads at Adelaide Oval in tribute to the victims. Singer-songwriter John Williamson led a moving rendition of his popular "True Blue", which portrays Australians from all backgrounds sharing the same hopes and aspirations. Flags at the stadium flew at half-mast and security was ramped up, with armed police patrolling inside and outside the arena where more than 50,000 fans were expected. Читать дальше...
The Central American country's congress voted 35 to 21 in favor of removing his immunity -- three ballots below the 38-vote majority needed for the motion to pass the 57-seat chamber. The president of the legislature announced the result. In July, the country's Supreme Court asked congress to take away 64-year-old Chaves's immunity so he could be put on trial for alleged corruption. In that case, prosecutors claimed he had forced a communications agency hired by the presidency to give $32,000 to his friend. Читать дальше...
Sajid Akram and his son Naveed opened fire on people thronging the famous Sydney beach for the Jewish festival of Hanukkah on Sunday evening, killing 15 people and wounding dozens more. Dashcam footage showed retired mechanic Boris Gurman, 69, knocking the elder attacker to the ground as he tries to rip away his long-barrelled gun. The longtime Bondi resident gets hold of Sajid Akram's weapon, aiming it at the gunman, as his wife Sofia, 61, dashes towards him in support. Akram reportedly managed to get another gun...

US President Donald Trump's administration has warned that it could impose fees or restrictions on European service providers, escalating a transatlantic dispute over what Washington describes as discriminatory EU actions targeting US companies.
Sajid Akram and his son Naveed opened fire on a Jewish festival at the famed surf beach on Sunday evening, killing 15 people and wounding dozens more, according to authorities. Among the victims were a 10-year-old girl, two Holocaust survivors, and a married couple shot dead as they tried to thwart the attack.

Los Angeles prosecutors say Nick Reiner, the son of famed actor-director Rob Reiner, will be charged with two counts of first-degree murder following the deaths of his parents. The case has shocked Hollywood and Democratic political circles, where the couple were widely admired.
Maresca's side took the lead thanks to Alejandro Garnacho's strike early in the second half of the quarter-final in the Welsh capital. Chelsea were pushed hard by the gritty League One leaders, who equalised through David Turnbull's thumping header. But the Blues delivered a welcome tonic for Maresca after his recent outburst, as Pedro Neto and Garnacho struck in the closing stages. When Maresca faced the media on Monday, the Italian refused to clarify his explosive claim after Saturday's 2-0... Читать дальше...
