Easing the country's most serious security crisis in decades, Wagner mercenary chief force Yevgeny Prigozhin will go to Belarus and will not face charges after calling off his troops' advance on Moscow, the Russian government has said. The feud between Prigozhin and Russia's military brass came to a violent head when Wagner's forces captured a key army headquarters in southern Russia on Saturday. They then turned toward the north to threaten the capital. Moreover, within hours of Prigozhin's about-face, the Kremlin announced he would leave for Belarus and Russia would not prosecute him or Wagner's members. It had been a dramatic day, with President Vladimir Putin warning against civil war, Moscow telling locals to stay off the streets and Kyiv revelling in the chaos engulfing its enemy. The tide shifted suddenly when Prigozhin made the stunning announcement that his troops were "turning our columns around and going back to field camps" to avoid b...

The Bermuda Triangle is a big area in the Atlantic Ocean close to Florida that makes sailors, researchers, and some weird people very interested. Different people describe where the border is in different ways. But most people say that it's like a triangle with three points: Miami, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda. People have noticed strange things happening in the area called the Bermuda Triangle since a long time ago, even when Christopher Columbus traveled through it. In more recent times, many planes and ships have disappeared mysteriously in this area. In 1945, five American aircraft went on a mission to drop bombs on a city in Japan. An aircraft group called "Flight 19" from the Navy went missing in the triangle while they were practicing. The planes and their 14 crew members might have run out of fuel and crashed in the sea, but no one knows for sure because they have not been found. In 1963, a big boat called the SS Marine Sulphur Queen sank close to Key West, Flor...

Cultivated meat, also known as lab-grown meat, has been cleared for sale in the United States. Upside Foods and Good Meat, two companies that make what they call “cultivated chicken,” said Wednesday that they have gotten approval from the US Department of Agriculture to start producing their cell-based proteins. Good Meat, which is owned by plant-based egg substitute maker Eat Just, said that production is starting immediately. Cultivated or lab-grown meat is grown in a giant vat, much like what you’d find at a beer brewery. Wednesday’s move follows a series of previous approvals which have paved the way for sales of cultivated meat in the US. Last week, Good Meat and Upside said they had received approval for labels for its product from the USDA. In March, Good said it had received a so-called “no questions” letter from the Food and Drug Administration. That letter states that the administration is satisfied that the product is safe to sell in the United States. The FDA issued a...

More than 40 people are missing after a migrant boat capsized off the Italian island of Lampedusa. The shipwreck took place on Thursday and at least one newborn baby is among those missing, said UNHCR representative to Italy Chiara Cardoletti. The vessel left from Sfax in Tunisia and was carrying 46 migrants from Cameroon, Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast, Flavio Di Giacomo, a spokesman for the UN migration agency IOM, said Friday. The boat capsized in strong winds and high waves, he said. “Some survivors were taken to Lampedusa and others were brought back to Tunisia.” “Among those missing were seven women and a minor. The survivors are all adult men,” he added. “We have noticed more arrivals of migrants from sub-Saharan Africa than Tunisians” via the Tunisian route since November, he said. He explained this was due to people from sub-Saharan Africa fleeing discrimination in Tunisia. “It is unacceptable to continue counting the dead at the gates of Europe,” Cardoletti wrote on Tw...
