Outside the courthouse, a small crowd gathered in solidarity with the accused. Among them: opposition lawyer Dalila Msaddek, whose brother Jawhar Ben Mbarek is one of the defendants. Her words on the trial were blunt, calling it nothing more than "the blatant implementation of political instructions."
The list of the accused reads like a roll call of Tunisia's political opposition, party leaders Issam Chebbi and Ghazi Chaouachi, businessman Kamel Ltaief, and dozens of human rights defenders and lawyers.

The 63-year-old was accused of orchestrating the 1996 drive-by shooting after Tupac and his entourage assaulted Davis’ nephew.
Prosecutors said Davis helped organise the group that went looking for Tupac and provided the firearm used in the attack. The alleged shooter was never identified.
Davis faces a maximum sentence of life in prison without parole. He has said he plans to appeal.
Tupac was 25 when he was killed, becoming one of the most influential and enduring figures in hip-hop history.

Nepal, a largely rural nation of 30 million people, has contributed little to the emissions driving global warming churned out by wealthy and industrialised nations, but is suffering its consequences.
Global bodies and countries have come together to provide financial and humanitarian support to the Himalayan nation, along with rescue teams helping find missing persons and carrying out body recoveries.
Teams are also racing against time to reach around 100 hydropower workers believed to be trapped inside several tunnels. They have been digging, drilling and clearing debris, but three bodies have so far been recovered from two tunnels, with routes still blocked by thick mud.

- A new US aircraft carrier will deploy to the Middle East to relieve another carrier that recently sailed to the region as the war with Iran drags on, the US Naval Institute (USNI) reported.
The USS Theodore Roosevelt strike group is expected to sail from San Diego, on the US west coast, in the coming weeks, for a more than seven-month deployment, USNI said.
It will relieve the USS George Washington, which deployed from Japan and arrived in the Middle East last week, replacing the USS Abraham Lincoln, amid reports of grim conditions and even suicide attempts on that carrier that has been at sea since November 2025.

At least 469 people have died in Nepal, while more than 1,400 remain missing, including hundreds of foreigners. Chinese state media reported three additional deaths, bringing the combined toll to at least 472.

Rescue teams are digging through mud and debris with heavy machinery as hopes of finding survivors fade and authorities work to prevent further devastation.
