- Description
- New York's highest court on Thursday overturned the 2020 conviction of disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein on sex crimes charges. The Court of Appeals ruled that the trial judge erred in admitting testimony from women who were not named in the accusations against Weinstein and ordered a new trial.
However, the ruling doesn't affect a separate 16-year rape conviction handed down in California in 2022, meaning the once untouchable Hollywood heavyweight will remain behind bars.
Bombshell allegations against the Oscar-winning producer emerged in 2017, sparking the #MeToo movement, which paved the way for women to fight back against sexual violence in the workplace.

- US officials have confirmed that Ukraine has begun using long-range missiles secretly shipped in recent weeks. They say the missiles were used for the first time in a strike on a Russian airfield in Crimea last week. The "Army Tactical Missile Systems" - or ATACMS - were part of a 300 million-dollar assistance package approved by the United States in March. The US supplied mid-range versions of the system last September. This latest batch can strike targets up to 300 kilometers away.

- What's behind the growing US protests against the war in Gaza? | DW News
- Date posted
- 10 hours ago
- Description
- Pro-Palestinian protests continue in the US. Several universities have turned to law enforcement authorities to break up gatherings. Several colleges have closed campuses, and hundreds of students have been arrested. Los Angeles police said on Thursday that 93 people had been arrested for trespassing at the University of Southern California (USC) amid protests over the mounting death toll in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. The pro-Palestinian protest at USC was among the latest to take place at campuses across the United States that have seen confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement. The Israel-Hamas war was sparked by the Hamas-led terror attacks in southern Israel on October 7 that left around 1,200 people dead and saw 250 taken hostage. Since then, Israel has launched an expansive ground offensive throughout the Palestinian territory, which Hamas-led health authorities said has killed over 34,300 people, mainly women and children, and led to a humanitarian crisis.

- Description
- People in Russia's Kurgan region have been dealing with weeks of unprecedented flooding that's forced thousands from their homes. Now they could be facing a new danger. Russian environmentalists are raising the alarm over a potential radioactive leak. The source: the Dobrovolnoye uranium mine located near Kurgan on the Russian-Kazakh border. The mine contains over 7,000 tons of Uranium and is in the path of rising floodwaters. Flooding means it's possible that radioactive material could poison rivers and freshwater sources in the region. The Russian nuclear energy agency Rosatom says that small amounts of uranium in drinking water are unproblematic, and they're accusing the population of “radiophobia”. Is the issue being downplayed?

Satellite images show collections of tents near the city that were not there earlier this month.

Blinken is expected to discuss a number of issues, including China’s support for Russia. The US says China is helping Russia's war effort in Ukraine, adding that it damages US security. This comes as the US Congress passed a bill to ban the social media platform TikTok, unless its Chinese owner sells off its US assets. Lawmakers have been concerned about possible Chinese government control of TikTok. ByteDance has denied that it shares sensitive user data with the Chinese government. TikTok has about 170 million users in the US. Blinken's visit comes at a particularly tense time between China and the US: What are the main issues that will be discussed during Blinken's visit?

- Description
- In the United States, protests against Israel's war in Gaza have spread to university campuses across the country, reigniting a long-standing debate over how to balance public safety and free speech.
The protests are just the latest example of how the war in Gaza is inflaming public opinion in countries around the world.
In the US, those divisions are being watched especially closely in this election year. Some pundits are even saying that President Joe Biden's position, which is unpopular among many Democratic voters, could cost him the election.

- 'What is happening in Ukraine has ramifications far beyond the borders of our country' Yuriy Sak
- Date posted
- 2 days ago
- Description
- In recent weeks, Russia has intensified its airstrikes in northeastern Ukraine, particularly in the Kharkiv region.
Yuriy Sak, an advisor to the Ukrainian Minister of Strategic Industry, told DW that the reason for this is that Russia has started to use more guided bombs and that Ukraine does not have enough air defense interceptors, so Ukrainian air defense systems are unable to provide cover to these areas near the front lines.
Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak unveiled details of a new 580-million euro military aid package for Ukraine, to include boats, ammunition and air defence missiles.
