 AU urges de-escalation as fighting displaces over 180,000 in South Sudan’s Jonglei state The Chairperson of the African Union Commission called for immediate de-escalation and strict adherence to South Sudan’s 2018 peace agreement, as renewed fighting in Jonglei State displaced more than 180,000 people and raised fears of further civilian harm. In a statement, African Union Commission Chairperson Mahmoud Ali Youssouf said he was deeply concerned by the deteriorating security situation in parts of the country, particularly Jonglei, where escalating violence and inflammatory rhetoric have put civilians—including women and children—at heightened risk. South Sudanese authorities estimate the number of displaced in Jonglei at more than 180,000, the United Nations humanitarian agency OCHA said last week. He urged all parties to exercise maximum restraint, de-escalate tensions immediately, and comply fully with the permanent ceasefire and power-sharing arrangements under the agreement, T...

 The Kessler twins, German entertainment duo, die together through assisted suicide

Alice and Ellen Kessler, the German twin sisters whose singing and dancing made them European entertainment icons in the 1950s and ’60s, died together by assisted suicide on Monday at the age of 89, the German Society for Humane Dying confirmed.

The organization said the sisters had been considering the decision for some time and had been members for over a year. A doctor and a lawyer conducted preliminary discussions with them to ensure the choice was deliberate and informed. “People who choose this option in Germany must be absolutely clear-headed, free and responsible,” the organization said, adding that such decisions are “thoughtful and consistent, not impulsive.” Germany legalized medically assisted suicide in 2020 after its highest court ruled a prior ban violated constitutional rights.

Born on August 20, 1936, in Nazi Germany, the sisters trained as ballet dancers. Their family fled East Germany in the early 1950s, and the twins launched their careers in West Germany. Known professionally as the Kessler Twins, they became stars in postwar Germany and Italy, also attracting fans in the United States. In February 1963, they made their U.S. television debut on CBS’ “The Red Skelton Hour” and appeared on the cover of Life magazine, billed as “Sensations from Germany: Kessler Twins.” They also performed on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” where they were celebrated for their charm and talent.

In the 1960s, the sisters moved to Italy, posed for the Italian edition of Playboy, and appeared in European films, including a brief role in the Hollywood epic “Sodom and Gomorrah.” They returned to Germany in the 1980s, settling near Munich, and never married. Over their careers, the Kessler Twins received numerous honors, including Germany’s Order of Merit in 1987 and recognition from the Italian government for their contributions to entertainment.
