Sean “Diddy” Combs was reportedly involved in a physical altercation with another inmate at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) Fort Dix in New Jersey, according to multiple media reports. The alleged incident is said to have occurred earlier this week after another inmate reportedly made insulting remarks toward the music producer and entrepreneur. Reports claim the confrontation escalated into a brief fight, with both men allegedly exchanging pushes and punches before correctional officers intervened and separated them. Following the incident, Combs was reportedly placed in solitary confinement. It remains unclear whether he is still being held in segregated housing, and…

The US House of Representatives narrowly passed an annual defense policy bill on Wednesday that would authorize a record $1.15 trillion in funding for the Pentagon, as the divisive Iran war drags on. Though it traditionally sees significant bipartisan support, the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed the lower chamber in a 216-212 vote, a sign of the growing polarization under President Donald Trump. The bill, which must still pass the Senate, provides approximately $250 billion more than the 2026 NDAA, including a 5-7 percent pay raise for service members. “This legislation provides our brave servicemembers with an overdue…

The Argentine Football Association (AFA) has strongly denied reports claiming its president, Claudio Tapia, and treasurer Pablo Toviggino were detained by U.S. authorities after the 2026 FIFA World Cup final. The federation issued a statement rejecting media reports that the two officials were stopped and questioned at an airport while preparing to board the flight taking Argentina’s squad home following Sunday’s defeat to Spain. According to the reports, Tapia and Toviggino were allegedly held for questioning, had their electronic devices seized and were later ordered to appear before a U.S. court in connection with the AFA’s international commercial contracts. The…

The wreckage of the Pan American Airways plane that crash-landed in the Atlantic Ocean has finally been found decades later. The Clipper Endeavor was bound for New York when it suffered multiple engine failure shortly after take-off on April 11, 1952, and plunged into the ocean. Everyone onboard survived the initial impact. However, the plane quickly sank, dragging passengers down with it, resulting in the death of scores of passengers. Just 17 of the 69 passengers and crew on board lived. Now, an expedition to find the sunken plane has uncovered the wreckage 2000ft below sea level off the coast of Puerto Rico. Led by the Air/Sea…

The European Union has fined Google a combined €890 million (£760 million) after finding the technology giant breached the bloc’s Digital Markets Act (DMA) through its search engine and app store practices. The European Commission announced that Google unfairly favoured its own products and services in search results while also restricting app developers from directing users to cheaper alternatives outside its app marketplace. Under the ruling, Google received a €460 million fine for giving preferential treatment to its own services—including shopping, hotel and travel listings—over competing platforms in search results. A further €430 million penalty was imposed over the company’s…

The United States and Saudi Arabia have signed a landmark agreement to expand cooperation on civilian nuclear energy, paving the way for the Gulf kingdom to develop its long-planned nuclear power programme. Described by the U.S. Department of Energy as a “peaceful nuclear cooperation agreement,” the deal establishes a legal framework for long-term collaboration between the two countries and is expected to create significant opportunities for American companies in Saudi Arabia’s emerging nuclear energy sector. Alongside the cooperation agreement, both governments also signed a bilateral safeguards accord, which U.S. officials said is designed to ensure the programme adheres to international…

Prime Minister Andy Burnham has announced his first Cabinet, making sweeping changes across government as he begins his premiership with a pledge to tackle the cost-of-living crisis and reshape Labour’s direction. The new administration includes several senior appointments while a number of key allies of former Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer have left government. Among the most significant changes is the appointment of John Healey as Chancellor of the Exchequer, replacing Rachel Reeves. Ed Miliband has been named Foreign Secretary, while Angela Rayner returns to government as Housing Secretary. On his first day in office, Burnham also announced that VAT…

Andy Burnham’s appointment as Britain’s new prime minister marks one of the most remarkable political comebacks in modern UK history, with the Labour leader reaching the country’s highest office just four weeks after returning to Parliament. Burnham officially became a Member of Parliament again only a month before being invited by King Charles III to form a government, making his rise to No. 10 one of the quickest in recent decades. Despite his brief return to Westminster, Burnham is far from a newcomer to national politics. He previously represented the Greater Manchester constituency of Leigh as an MP from 2001…

Andy Burnham has officially become the United Kingdom’s 59th Prime Minister after being invited by King Charles III to form a new government at Buckingham Palace.

The raw emotion of Keir Starmer departure had already come earlier, when he announced his resignation a few weeks ago. By the time he stepped out of the famous black door of 10 Downing Street for the last time, the mood was different – less somber, more appreciative. Hundreds of Downing Street staff and Cabinet colleagues had lined both sides of the entrance. As Keir Starmer emerged from inside the building, the applause began almost immediately and quickly grew into one of the loudest sendoffs heard here in recent years. There was a warmth to the reception that reflected the…
