 Russia launches massive drone and missile barrage on Ukraine, killing at least 18 civilians and striking Kyiv and multiple cities  Russia carried out a large-scale overnight assault on Ukraine, launching hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles that killed at least 18 civilians and wounded more than 100 others across multiple cities, officials said Tuesday. The strikes hit Kyiv, Dnipro and other regions, with emergency crews working through destroyed residential buildings where some victims were trapped under rubble. In Dnipro, rescuers recovered the bodies of a 3-year-old child and a mother and her 8-year-old son, while officials reported 12 deaths in the city and six in Kyiv. The bombardment stretched from night into daylight, with explosions reported across wide areas of the country. Kyiv residents had been on alert for days after warnings of a major aerial attack, including advisories for foreign diplomats to leave the capital. Despite those warnings, most remained in pl...

 Prosecutors respond after Diddy requests bail before sentencing

Federal prosecutors have strongly opposed Diddy's request for bail ahead of his sentencing, challenging his efforts to minimize his convictions related to transporting male escorts across state lines for paid sexual encounters involving his former girlfriends.

In court filings submitted Thursday, prosecutors argued that Diddy should remain in custody while awaiting sentencing after being convicted on two counts of violating the Mann Act. Although he was acquitted of the more serious racketeering and sex trafficking charges, prosecutors maintain his conduct warrants continued detention.

Diddy had filed a motion earlier, asking the judge to overturn his Mann Act convictions on the grounds that the law applies to transporting individuals for sex acts, which he denies having done himself. He claims he never engaged in sex with the escorts and only filmed his ex-girlfriends, Cassie and “Jane,” who arranged the encounters. Alternatively, he requested a new trial solely on the Mann Act counts.

Prosecutors fired back, stating that Diddy’s crimes include “aggravating — not mitigating — factors” that justify holding him. They highlight that he transported individuals for prostitution on numerous occasions over many years and allege he supplied Cassie and Jane with drugs to ensure their participation in prolonged sexual events, while subjecting them to violent behavior.

Opposing his $50 million bond request, the government emphasized Diddy’s history of violence and the risk he poses to the community. They also warned he is a flight risk, given the substantial prison time he faces.

Judge Arun Subramanian will have to carefully weigh these arguments as the case moves toward sentencing.
