US President Donald Trump has filed a $5 billion defamation lawsuit over an edited version of his January 2021 speech. He filed the case in Florida, accusing the UK public broadcaster of defamation and trade practices violations, according to court documents. The organisation apologised last month for the edit but rejected demands for compensation and denied any legal basis for defamation. Trump’s legal team claimed editors deliberately changed his words. The lawsuit described the edit as malicious and deceptive, intended to harm his reputation. The broadcaster has not yet issued a public response.

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim admits the team is performing below expectations. He says criticism from former players comes naturally at a club like United. Amorim accepts responsibility for results. He believes the squad should have earned more points. United face Monday’s Premier League match against Bournemouth under pressure. A win would keep them inside the top six for a second consecutive week. That achievement has been rare this season. Short Lived Success Highlights Deeper Issues United last managed consecutive weeks in the top six late in the 2023-24 season. That run ended with a heavy defeat at Crystal…

A new review suggests that psychedelic treatments such as psilocybin may help reduce symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), while cannabis-based treatments show little lasting benefit. The review, led by Dr Michael Van Ameringen of McMaster University and published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research, examined existing evidence on alternative treatments for OCD. It found stronger signals of effectiveness for psychedelics, particularly psilocybin, than for cannabinoids like THC and CBD. Researchers believe the difference lies in how the substances affect the brain. Psilocybin appears to reduce activity in the brain’s default mode network, which is linked to rumination and intrusive thinking…

Scientists have identified genetic changes in polar bears that could help them adapt to rising temperatures, offering rare evidence that global heating is influencing DNA in a wild mammal. Researchers from the University of East Anglia found that polar bears in south-east Greenland differ genetically from those in colder northern regions. The study suggests that bears living in warmer conditions show increased activity in so-called “jumping genes” — mobile sections of DNA that can alter how other genes function. These genetic shifts are linked to traits such as heat stress, metabolism and ageing, and appear more pronounced in bears exposed…

A billionaire investor pursuing TikTok’s US operations says uncertainty continues as a new deadline approaches. The United States has postponed the app’s forced sale multiple times. Officials warn the platform could face a ban without a completed deal. President Donald Trump appears ready to extend the deadline again on Tuesday.

McCourt said they already secured the funding needed for a purchase. He added that repeated delays prevent effective planning. The prolonged…

The EU’s planned ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2035 is set to be softened, according to a senior European parliament politician, in a move likely to anger environmental campaigners. Manfred Weber, president of the European People’s party group, said the European Commission is expected to drop the idea of a total ban on combustion engines. Instead, carmakers would be required to meet a 90% reduction in fleet-wide CO₂ emissions from 2035, rather than the previously agreed 100%, allowing some hybrid vehicles to remain on sale. The proposed change follows lobbying from Germany, Italy and…

High Court case targets sweeping under-16 ban Reddit launches a High Court challenge against Australia’s law that blocks users under 16 from joining major social platforms.

Two teenagers are also pursuing a separate case awaiting a High Court hearing. Company says policy misjudges youth online behavior “Despite good intentions, this law misses the mark,” Reddit states on its…

Researchers have documented a surprising partnership off British Columbia: northern resident killer whales cooperating with Pacific white-sided dolphins to hunt salmon. Using drones, underwater video and acoustic tags, scientists observed dolphins speeding ahead as “scouts,” locating salmon that the orcas then pursued and captured. Unlike typical behavior, the whales showed no aggression as dolphins moved in to eat leftover scraps — a sign the interaction is not accidental. Acoustic recordings revealed alternating echolocation clicks from both species during deep dives, suggesting they may even be listening to each other to track fish more effectively. Scientists ruled out simpler explanations such…
