- Special Counsel Robert Hur will testify before a House panel on his report on the documents probe involving President Joe Biden, according to a panel statement on Monday (March 11).
Hur, a former U.S. attorney in Maryland during Republican President Donald Trump's administration, led a 15-month investigation into Biden's handling of classified documents.
In February he issued a report saying he declined to seek charges against Biden and he would be difficult to convict. Hur said the president would present himself to a jury as a "well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory."

- Armed fighters said to be Russian citizens who oppose the Kremlin said they carried out cross-border incursions into western Russia from Ukraine using tanks on Tuesday (March 12), but Moscow said it had repelled the attacks.
Ukraine said the groups were acting independently. But the border raids, carried out days before a presidential election in Russia and just over two years after Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, were widely seen as backed by Kyiv.
The Freedom of Russia Legion said it had taken full control of Tyotkino, a village on the edge of Russia's Kursk region bordering Ukraine.

At a UN security council briefing on sexual violence in New York on Monday, Pramila Patten, the body’s special representative on the topic, said that during her visit to Israel she was given “clear and convincing information that sexual violence, including rape, sexualised torture and cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment has been committed against hostages”.
She denied a claim by Israel that the UN secretary-general, António Guterres, had sought to suppress her report, adding: “I must be clear and categorical: there has been no attempt by the secretary-general to silence my report or suppress its findings.”

Eight years after his execution, the name of Mahmoud Ishtiwi is still whispered in the Gaza Strip by those in Hamas who oppose the iron rule of Yahya Sinwar, its chief in the territory.
Executions within Hamas are hardly rare, but that of Ishtiwi was different. He was no ordinary operative accused of “immoral” acts or passing on information to the Israelis but the commander of the Zeitoun battalion, one of the battle-hardened units in Hamas, and came from a family whose members had all been prominently active in the movement for decades.

- An inquiry into the alleged crimes committed by a British spy in the IRA codenamed Stakeknife has published its findings.
The Kenova report says that several murders committed by the IRA could have been prevented had Stakeknife’s handlers acted on information provided by him and that he cost more lives than he saved.

- "Frustrated" David Cameron urges Israel to open port for Gaza aid
- Date posted
- 21 days ago
- Description
- British foreign minister David Cameron said on Friday (March 8) the U.S.-led plan to build a temporary harbour in Gaza to bring aid into the enclave would take time, reiterating his call for Israel to open the port of Ashdod in the meantime.
Cameron told UK broadcasters that the proposed new harbour would take time to build so it was "crucial" that Israel opened their port at Ashdod to allow many more trucks of aid each day to enter the coastal enclave of Gaza.
U.S. President Joe Biden told Congress in his State of the Union speech on Thursday (March 7) he was directing the U.S. military to lead an emergency mission to set up a "temporary pier" on the Gaza coast to receive ships carrying food, water, medicine and temporary shelters.
Cameron also said a ceasefire was still possible, but echoing comments from U.S. officials, said the onus was on Hamas to agree a deal to exchange hostages held in Gaza for Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails.<...

- Description
- Thousands of protesters, including many Houthi supporters, gathered on Friday (March 8) in a show of solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
The Houthis, who control Yemen's capital and most populous areas, have targeted international shipping in the Red Sea in what they say is solidarity with Palestinians against Israel, drawing U.S. and British retaliatory strikes since last month.
Three crew members of the True Confidence dry bulk carrier were killed in a missile attack off Yemen on Wednesday (March 6), the owners and manager of the ship confirmed in a statement on Thursday (March 7).
The group's strikes are disrupting a route that accounts for about 12% of global maritime traffic, and forcing firms to take a longer, more expensive route around Africa.

- Yemen's Houthi rebels sink UK ship in Red Sea
- Date posted
- 21 days ago
- Description
- The Belize-registered Rubymar is the first vessel lost since the Houthis began targeting commercial ships in November. Those drone and missile assaults have forced shipping firms to divert ships to the longer route around southern Africa, disrupting global trade by delaying deliveries and sending costs higher.
The Rubymar went down in the southern Red Sea late on Friday (March 1) or early on Saturday (March 2), according to statements from the Yemen government and CENTCOM.
The U.S. military previously said the Feb. 18 missile attack had significantly damaged the bulk vessel and caused an 18-mile (29-km) oil slick. The ship was carrying about 21,000 metric tons of fertiliser, CENTCOM said on Saturday.

- Republicans, who blame Biden and his administration's border policies for the deaths of Americans killed by illegal migrants, have seized on Riley's death as a symbol of Democrats' failure.
"It's about Laken Riley," shouted Greene during the speech, interrupting Biden as he talked about the border. "Say her name!"
Biden picked up a button Greene thrust into his hand as he walked to the podium, and repeated Riley's name. He said she was an innocent woman killed by "an illegal", before adding that thousands are killed by "legal" U.S. residents and sending condolences to Riley's family.

- President Joe Biden delivered a pugnacious state of the union address to revive his election fight against Donald Trump by embracing his age. Biden, 81, cast himself in contrast to Trump as the defender of the enduring values of America and optimistic for a positive future “where we defend democracy not diminish it” and “restore the right to choose and protect other freedoms not take them away”, such as abortion rights.
