 Germany and Austria to tap oil reserves after 400 million barrels requested  Germany and Austria announced they are releasing portions of their oil reserves in response to an International Energy Agency request for member nations to collectively release 400 million barrels to help ease rising energy prices linked to the Iran conflict. Japan also said it will begin releasing part of its reserves starting Monday. The move marks one of the largest coordinated releases of emergency oil stocks in history. The previous record came in 2022, when IEA members released 182.7 million barrels following the energy disruptions caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

INMATE ACCIDENTALLY FREED FROM NEW ORLEANS JAIL, WHERE 10 OTHERS BROKE OUT. (PHOTO).


 Inmate accidentally freed from New Orleans jail, where 10 others broke out

An inmate was accidentally released last week from the same New Orleans jail where 10 prisoners escaped in May, officials confirmed.

The Orleans Parish correctional facility mistakenly freed 30-year-old Khalil Bryan, who was being held on charges including aggravated assault with a firearm, domestic abuse, child endangerment, and home invasion. Bryan’s record also includes burglary, assault, and drug-related offenses. The release was due to a clerical mistake involving another inmate with a similar last name.

Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson took full responsibility for the error, saying the system failed due to human error in the verification process. Bryan was released just after 1 a.m. on Friday, but the public was not informed until later that day. It remains unclear when officials realized the mistake or when the sheriff was notified.

An investigation is underway into the incident. Hutson acknowledged the release should not have happened and described it as a failure of internal procedures. Bryan was freed from the same facility where 10 inmates broke out in May by removing a toilet from the wall. Authorities have recaptured all but one of those escapees.

The May breakout was deemed an “inside job,” with over a dozen people charged with aiding the escape. A jail maintenance worker was arrested and accused of assisting the escapees, though his lawyer claimed he is being unfairly blamed.
