 Military judge suppresses Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s FBI confession in 9/11 case A military judge has excluded a confession that alleged Sept. 11 attacks mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gave to FBI agents nearly 20 years ago, ruling that the statements were not made voluntarily. The decision is a setback for the U.S. government's long-running effort to prosecute Mohammed, who is accused of helping develop the plot to hijack planes and crash them into the World Trade Center and Pentagon. Mohammed remains detained at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, alongside other defendants awaiting trial. Lt. Col. Michael Schrama, the judge overseeing the case, scheduled a June 2028 trial for Mohammed and three other defendants earlier this week.

Memorial for British LGBTQIA+ service members unveiled with King Charles in attendance

King Charles III unveiled a memorial on Monday honoring LGBTQIA+ members of the British military, marking 25 years since the government ended its decades-long ban on service by the community. The bronze sculpture, titled An Opened Letter, was installed at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, where the king laid flowers during his first official event supporting LGBTQIA+ service members.

The memorial’s name references personal letters written by LGBTQIA+ personnel that were once used as evidence against them, and the sculpture is designed to resemble a crumpled piece of paper covered in words from those letters. Created by the artist collective Abraxas Academy, the memorial was championed by LGBTQIA+ veterans organization Fighting With Pride and recognizes those who faced emotional and physical persecution under the ban, which was in effect from 1967 until 2000. Veterans attending the unveiling shared their experiences of being discharged or harassed, while Fighting With Pride emphasized the memorial’s role in encouraging affected service members to apply for reparations. The ban’s formal apology came in 2023 from then-Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, following a government report documenting the abuse and discrimination endured by LGBTQIA+ service members.
