Venezuelan Officials Condemn US Remarks Venezuela responds with sharp anger to Donald Trump’s claim that the nation’s airspace should be treated as closed. The foreign ministry calls his statement “another extravagant, illegal and unjustified aggression against the Venezuelan people”. Officials say the United States holds no legal authority to shut another country’s airspace. They accuse Trump of issuing a “colonialist threat” that violates international norms. Military Escalation Intensifies Regional Pressure The United States increases its military presence near Venezuela. US forces launch at least 21 strikes on boats they claim carried drugs. More than 80 people die in these attacks.…

Solar bursts threaten vital flight systems Airbus grounded thousands of aircraft after learning that strong solar radiation can disrupt crucial flight control computers. The move caused global delays because roughly 6,000 A320 planes share the same flaw. Most aircraft will return to service after a quick software update. Regulators warn passengers about delays The UK aviation regulator warned travellers about possible delays and cancellations, though airports report only limited impact so far. Airbus uncovered the problem during an investigation into an October incident where a jet flying between the US and Mexico suddenly lost altitude. The JetBlue aircraft diverted to…

Under the bright lights of an operating theatre in Delhi, a woman lies motionless as surgeons prepare to remove her gallbladder. She sleeps under general anaesthesia, her body paralysed and her mind unconscious. Yet a gentle stream of flute music plays through headphones resting over her ears. Even as anaesthetic drugs silence much of her brain, the auditory pathways remain partially active. When she wakes, she regains consciousness more quickly and clearly because she needed lower doses of propofol and opioid painkillers than patients who heard no music. A new study from Maulana Azad Medical College and Lok Nayak Hospital…

A new feature uncovers unexpected account origins X’s new location tool exposes major political accounts and sparks widespread debate. The platform now shows where users access the service and reveals surprising origins. Many high-engagement profiles posted about US politics while operating from abroad.

A year after his early warning Ruben Amorim issued another firm warning about rising expectations. Manchester United won 4–0 in this fixture last season, yet Amorim predicted turbulence ahead. One year later, his team revealed the same issues. A fierce clash between Idrissa Gueye and Michael Keane shaped the early drama. United played 77 minutes against ten men but failed to exploit their advantage. United lose control despite superiority Amorim watched his team struggle in key moments. Patrick Dorgu and Leny Yoro surrendered possession under no pressure as Everton grew stronger. Amad Diallo made poor choices while replacing the injured…

China’s national space science center announced that several of its space science satellites have achieved major breakthroughs in frontier areas of space research. The satellites include “悟空号” (Wukong), “慧眼号” (Insight), “夸父一号” (Kuafu-1), and others. The satellites have contributed to new understanding in cosmic ray propagation, solar eruptions, and other key space phenomena. Researchers said the data collected will help advance knowledge of the universe and improve space weather prediction. “悟空号” has been tracking cosmic rays and measuring their interactions with the Earth’s magnetic field. These observations provide important information about high-energy particles that originate from deep space. “慧眼号” has focused…

A complex system drives soaring prices The UK now ranks as the most expensive place to build nuclear plants, according to a government review. The report blames an overly complex bureaucracy for pushing costs above global levels. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer ordered the review to trigger a radical reset of nuclear policy. The taskforce says simpler rules could save Britain tens of billions and reverse years of decline. The government aims to launch a new generation of nuclear plants to secure energy supplies and support net-zero goals. Fragmented oversight slows progress The review highlights a fragmented safety system that…

A Weekend Filled With Frustration Lewis Hamilton shows clear disappointment after another difficult race weekend in Las Vegas. The seven-time world champion starts last after a slow qualifying session. It is the first time in his 19-year career that he qualifies last purely on pace. He climbs into the points early, but he cannot pass Nico Hülkenberg’s Sauber. He struggles on medium tyres and finishes tenth. Hamilton calls the result “terrible” and says he sees “nothing positive” in the day. He tells a UK radio station that he only wants the season to end. He adds that he does not…

Website Edits Prompt Immediate OutcryThe CDC changed core sections of its website on Wednesday. The revisions question long-standing scientific findings about vaccine safety. The updated text suggests studies have not ruled out a link between vaccines and autism. Experts say these claims distort scientific evidence and mislead families. Careful Wording Plants Seeds of DoubtThe revised bullet points argue that “vaccines do not cause autism” is not evidence-based. The phrasing implies major research gaps in infant vaccination studies. Specialists describe this as a tactic that fuels uncertainty. Alison Singer from the Autism Science Foundation stresses that science relies on consistent and…
