- Description
- Chinese smart device maker Honor is putting its humanoid robot "Flash" through sprint training ahead of the second World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing. The company says its goal is to break the human 100-meter world record, with the robot clocking about 10 seconds in testing. The men's world record stands at 9.58 seconds, set by Jamaica's Usain Bolt in 2009.
"Flash" won a humanoid robot half-marathon in Beijing in April, completing the 21.0975-kilometer course autonomously in 50 minutes and 26 seconds, faster than the human record. Engineers have since lengthened its legs by 10 centimeters and introduced lighter materials to improve its stride and speed.

- Description
- Dr Abdourahmane Idrissa, a political scientist at Leiden University, says ransom payments provide militants in Mali with funds to purchase weapons and expand their operations. He warns that kidnapping has evolved beyond a fundraising tactic, potentially enabling extremist groups to strengthen their influence. Idrissa also says military-led governments lack a clear strategy to contain JNIM and other jihadist groups, posing broader security risks across the Sahel.
