A visual analysis shows the U.S. likely bombed a migrant detention center in Yemen on April 28. At least three U.S.-made GBU-39 bombs at the site of the attack, which killed 68 African migrants, according to the Houthis, a militant group that controls northern Yemen.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Yet this analytical blunder shaped so much Remainer thinking in UK Brexit debates and is one of several reasons for the failure of a pro-European campaign in Britain that didn't engage with what the EU is becoming

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NYU Faculty Take Classes Off Campus to Protest Lack of Protections for International Students NEW YORK, April 17, 2025 - More than fifty NYU faculty members have taken their classes off campus starting today, and continuing for the next week, to protest the University's lack of commitment to protect international students in the face of the Trump administration's attacks. Some faculty have moved their classes to in-person locations that have been declared sanctuary spaces, where international students are assured that building administrators will do everything in their power to refuse to cooperate with ICE agents. Other faculty have moved their classes online so that students can attend from a safe location of their choosing.

This is how you do it.

The closest I got to Damascus What December 8 felt like for a Syrian in Istanbul

A personal essay of a Syrian in Istanbul observing the fall of the regime:

Thinking today of Elizabeth Tsurkov, whom I never met personally but who wrote for us on several occasions. She was for years a must-read analyst on Syria's civil war and the armed groups fighting it until Kataib Hezbollah took her hostage in Baghdad ~2 yrs ago. I hope her captivity also ends soon.

#Syria: The insurgency announced that its forces have taken the city of Homs in its entirety.

President Assad now only controls just a few cities in all of Syria.

It comes not long after KSA, Qatar + other Arab FMs met w/Iran, Turkey, and Russian officials in Doha.

It has snowed in Chicago and YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS! Time to remind everyone that we light our train tracks on fire to prevent the switches from freezing.

Bueno al parecer las balas con las que le dispararon al ceo de United Healthcare, una de las grandes empresas de cobertura médica de EEUU, tenían inscriptas dos palabras:

Trump’s Would-Be Lebanon Whisperer With Donald Trump now on his way back to the White House, the Middle East is on tenterhooks about future U.S. policy. If Trump maintains the radical

Aoun, Geagea, Frangiyeh—Trump’s in-law Massad Boulos has dabbled in every conceivable Lebanese-Christian political constellation, but was most recently in the pro-Assad camp.

Now he seems to be positioning himself as an influence on Trump’s Middle East policy.

Somehow stumbled across the concept of "polyphony" in the context of Russian Orthodox theological disputes and I have to say there are a lot of religious disputes that sound just made up to me but apparently were/are taken very seriously.

🚨 My latest story: Drug smugglers target Saudi Arabia as social change increases youth’s exposure to prohibited substances. The kingdom is pushing back with “war on drugs” and new private rehab centres.

I guess we’re living through the retreat of journalism and the rise of “war monitors”? I get that it’s a way to describe the work of SOHR, but it still feels like a strange category to me…
