Drone dive-bombs beach in southern Russia killing tourists

At least seven people have been killed, including three children, as a “downed” Ukrainian drone crashed and exploded onto sunbathers on a Russian beach.

Forty people were also injured, with 21 of them taken to hospital, as the unmanned device exploded in Arkhipo-Osipovka. The drone was seen dive-bombing onto tourists at the popular beach as temperatures reached 29C.

Beachgoers have claimed no warning sirens were heard before the incident as some sheltered under sun loungers.

Renewed heatwave conditions are due to continue for at least another week, pushing temperatures above 40C in many central and southern European countries.

Germany’s Low Water Information System (NIWIS) said that 44% of the Rhine measuring stations and 78% of those on the Danube had recorded extremely low water levels at the end of July.

The Rhine – which starts in the Swiss Alps and empties in the North Sea – is one of Europe’s busiest waterways. Decreasing water levels have sparked concerns about the economic fallout of having to limit navigation and shipping.

On Friday, the navigable water depth at the chokepoint of Kaub near Koblenz hit the 2018 record low of 25cm, before recovering slightly on Monday.

EXCERPT:

The entire situation with Iran is growing more complicated by the day; it seems. On Sunday, President Trump announced that direct hostilities against Iran would cease pending direct talks between Washington and Tehran. Now, on Monday, it seems the Iranians are only willing to speak through mediators, as they have been doing.

President Trump promptly labeled the Iranians “unbelievably duplicitous.” Well, yes; some of us have been saying that all along. When dealing with Iran, that’s something you can safely presume.

What to know about the Iran war today:

  • President Trump called Iran’s leadership “unbelievably duplicitous” Monday after Iran said hours earlier it had no plans to hold direct talks with Washington, despite the U.S. leader’s claim that negotiations would start today.
  • Mr. Trump said Sunday that a “deal is imminent, having to do with the Hormuz Strait and also, ultimately, the denuclearization of Iran,” after calling off strikes on Iran that he said would have been the “biggest attacks since World War II.”
  • Iran’s only negotiations are with Oman, an official said Monday. The two states have had “constructive discussions” over the past week on a new, temporary route through the Strait of Hormuz.

The United States and Iran paused strikes for a third night on Sunday as Washington and Tehran look to give peace talks another chance.

Speaking to US media, US ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz said President Donald Trump was “giving diplomacy some space” and “time.”

“He is giving diplomacy a chance,” Waltz told CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

“We’ll see over the next coming days. But make no mistake, additional military assets are moving into the region,” he said, adding: “The regime should believe the president when he says they’re locked and loaded, and where all options are on the table.”

On Sunday, a spokesperson for the Iranian army announced that Tehran had also halted “retaliatory operations” in the region.

It follows 13 consecutive nights of US strikes on Iran, which the US military said aimed to “degrade Iran’s ability to threaten commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.”

The Strait has been at the centre of tensions between Washington and Tehran and formed a key part of the “memorandum of understanding” that the two sides agreed to in June.

Romania has summoned Russia’s ambassador as it has reported that it shot down three drones in as many days.

A Romanian plane shot down a drone after an incursion into the country’s airspace on Sunday morning, the Ministry of Defence reported. The incident followed similar interceptions on Friday and Saturday.

Concern that Moscow’s war on Ukraine risks entangling neighbouring NATO states is on the rise. Romania is one of several alliance members to confront repeated stray drones recently, as Russia and Ukraine launch hundreds of the unmanned aircraft daily.

Following Sunday’s incident, Bucharest summoned Russia’s ambassador to complain about the “repeated violations”, Foreign Minister Oana Toiu wrote on social media.

Romania intercepted a Russian drone for the first time on Friday. That followed a similar incident on Saturday. An F-16 fighter jet then shot down an unmanned aircraft over the Black Sea on Sunday.

President Nicusor Dan reported that an investigation had found that Friday’s drone was a “Shahed model, used by the Russian Federation in its war of aggression against Ukraine”.

“First-of-their-kind” transgender-identified paper dolls featuring removable genitalia are expected to be introduced in the fall in some classrooms for children as young as four years old, according to the University of Minnesota researchers who developed the project.

The dolls, which have gender-neutral names including “Sam,” “Rory,” “Avery,” and “Parker,” include removable internal and external genitalia and more than 100 interchangeable clothing, hairstyle, and accessory pieces designed to facilitate conversations about gender and anatomy, according to the MyGender Dolls website.

The project originated at the University of Minnesota Medical School’s Institute for Sexual and Gender Health after more than six years of research. It has since been spun into a commercial venture, MyGender Dolls. The university’s research reportedly included sessions in which transgender-identifying and other children, along with their parents, were paid between $20 and $60 to play with the dolls and discuss gender and anatomy. In addition, photographs presented during a 2024 conference reportedly showed prototype dolls depicting various stages of gender transition, including removable anatomy and interchangeable clothing.

EXCERPT:

A school chaplain in the United Kingdom who was fired and blacklisted after preaching a sermon on LGBTQ issues has reached a confidential settlement with his former employer, ending a seven-year legal battle.

The Rev. Bernard Randall, an ordained Church of England minister, worked for five years as chaplain at Trent College, an independent school for K-12 students in Derbyshire, England. In 2018, Randall grew concerned when the school partnered with Educate and Celebrate, an outside group whose stated goal was to “smash heteronormativity” and embed queer theory in school culture. The group has since dissolved.

“I objected to [it] at the time it started, and tried to discuss it with the senior leadership, [but] they weren’t interested,” Randall told Fox News Digital.

The following year, a student asked Randall why pupils were required to accept LGBTQ ideology at a Christian school. Randall said that question, along with similar concerns raised by other students and staff, prompted him to deliver a sermon on freedom of belief and conscience.

US Central Command announced on Wednesday that US forces completed a twelfth consecutive night of attacks to degrade Iranian military capabilities.

In footage released by CENTCOM, Iranian military vehicles and boats are seen being blown up in airstrikes.

WATCH:

CENTCOM said in a statement,

At 10:30 p.m. ET on July 22, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces completed another round of strikes against Iran for the 12th consecutive night.

U.S. forces struck Iranian military targets including maritime capabilities, missile and drone storage facilities, coastal surveillance sites, and air defense assets. The strikes further degrade Iran’s ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial vessels.

This month, American forces have targeted dozens of Iranian military sites on land while resuming a blockade against Iran at sea. As of today, CENTCOM has redirected nine commercial vessels and disabled one to prevent ships from entering or departing Iranian ports.

ISLAMABAD (Alliance Defending Freedom) — In Pakistan, the Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) will hear a review petition in the case of Maria Shahbaz on July 24. The FCC is the highest court in Pakistan that hears constitutional cases. The hearing follows a previous ruling from the court, which returned the custody of 13-year-old Maria Shahbaz back to her 30-year-old kidnapper, Shehryar Ahmad.

The outcome of the case could go on to establish a precedent with stronger protections against child marriage in Pakistan.

“This case is a crucial moment in the movement to protect young girls from the crisis of forced marriage in Pakistan. We hope that Pakistan’s highest court will soon agree to review Maria’s case and re-examine the evidence that was previously relied upon by the lower courts. Maria must be freed and safely returned to her family, where she will be safe from harm and able to practice her Christian faith.” — Tehmina Arora, director of Advocacy for Asia at ADF

The Democratic Socialists of America-backed candidate made the remarks during the Wa’Ela Tigrai event in Denver last weekend.

During the event, she discussed her congressional campaign after defeating longtime incumbent Rep. Diana DeGette (D-CO) in last month’s Democrat primary.

Kiros said changing the international order would require electing officials who understand what she described as American exploitation on a “fundamental level.”

A South Carolina transgender activist who threatened to assassinate Congresswoman Nancy Mace has avoided prison time. Samuel “Roxie Wolfe” Theodore Cain, 20, was sentenced on Tuesday to five years in prison, suspended to 30 months of house arrest, followed by five years of probation, according to WRDW.

Cain, who pleaded guilty to making threats against Mace, issued the following May 2025 since-deleted social media post: “I’M GOING TO ASSASSINATE REPRESENTATIVE NANCY MACE WITH A GUN AND I’M BEING 100% DEAD A**,” an arrest warrant states

The sentence also issued a permanent restraining order to protect Mace. While in prison, Cain had also reportedly expressed a desire to kill the congresswoman if given the opportunity while speaking to a “jailhouse informant,” according to Mace’s victim impact statement. The comments were allegedly made while discussing the September 2025 assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.

(LifeSiteNews) — In apparent response to statements from New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani regarding the potential of arresting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as he enters the city to attend a United Nations General Assembly, President Donald Trump declared no such detaining will occur.

“Benjamin Netanyahu will not be arrested, in any way, shape, or form, while in the United States of America,” the 47th U.S. president wrote in a Monday post on Truth Social.

Trump’s public comment came out after Mamdani stated in a New York Times interview that his office was in “active conversation with our legal department” to consider potentially arresting Netanyahu if he comes to the city for the UN General Assembly in September.

Yet, after Trump’s post, Mamdani released a short candid video statement on Tuesday that, on X alone, has garnered more than 64 million views in less than 24 hours.

“Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal, the architect of a horrific genocide against the Palestinian people,” the 34-year-old politician stated. “He is responsible for the killing of more than 73,000 people, for the maiming of tens of thousands of children, as those who survive undergo amputation without anesthesia,” he said regarding massive scale atrocities executed by the Israeli army in Gaza.

Having escalated into open hostilities on February 28, 2026, the current United States and Iran war has been going on for nearly five months. In this period, the Strait of Hormuz, the only open-ocean exit for major producers like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, and the UAE has been in chokehold. The strait is the world’s most critical maritime energy chokepoint, facilitating the passage of roughly 600 billion worth of energy trade annually. According to estimates, about 1,500 vessels are stuck in the Persian Gulf, and several hundred more are stuck in the adjacent Gulf of Oman.Now according to new research, something growing on the hulls of these ships could spread worldwide when the trade resumes. The study published in Biological Invasions, was led by an international team of 24 marine scientists, led by the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES), and including the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI).The team cautioned that thousands of commercial vessels stranded for months in the Persian/Arabian Gulf following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz could unintentionally trigger a massive marine invasive species event. The study titled, “Closure of the Strait of Hormuz May Trigger a Bioinvasion Super-Spreader Event,” highlighted how prolonged periods at anchor allow ship hulls to accumulate dense communities of marine organisms including algae, barnacles, mussels and other invertebrates which can be transported across the globe when trade resumes.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development will “aggressively” crack down on colleges and universities that continue to offer race-based “affinity” housing, a department official told The College Fix.

Assistant Secretary for Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity Craig Trainor recently wrote a “dear colleague” letter warning campuses against “institutionalized separatism on the basis of race.”

“When that racial separatism violates the Fair Housing Act, we will aggressively enforce the law and hold every responsible institution fully accountable, regardless of the label, euphemism, or justification attached to the unlawful housing arrangement,” Trainor told The College Fix in an email last week.

Often referred to as “affinity” housing, some universities offer special residence areas for students of specific racial or ethnic identities. Universities often tout these specialized housing options as a way to promote diversity, community, and belonging.

To the chagrin of the profitable and predatory child sex-rejection industry, the Trump administration, like the British government, has taken action nationwide against the “chemical and surgical mutilation of children.” However, some blue states appear keen to continue waging war on America’s youth.

President Donald Trump continues to command historically strong support within the Republican Party as he settles into his second term, according to new polling highlighted by CNN data analyst Harry Enten.

During Wednesday’s segment, Enten pointed to Trump’s standing among Republican voters compared to other presidents this century, arguing that no modern president has maintained stronger approval from members of his own party at this stage of a second term.

“Trump is still very popular with Republicans,” Enten said while presenting the data. “Just take a look here. Twenty-first century own-party approval rating about at this point in the second term. We’ve got Trump, we’ve got Obama, we’ve got Bush.”

Although all three presidents enjoyed strong backing from their respective parties, Enten noted that Trump’s numbers stand apart.

“They’re all fairly popular, but the one who is the most popular, and we have seen this time and time out, no matter when you look, is Donald John Trump,” Enten said. “He’s the only one who’s over 80%.”
