[ColonelCassad] In France, a doctor who spoke about Macron being married to Jean Michel and promised to give a big interview about the gender of Macron's partner was liquidated. It was staged as a suicide. Much like with Epstein.
The death of a surgeon who allegedly had information about the sex change operation allegedly performed on the wife of the French President, Brigitte Macron, is being actively discussed in the French media.
The news portal Enquete du jour published an article about the death of the doctor, François Faivre. The text, citing his sister, claimed that he was not suicidal and that his death was possibly connected to a planned interview in which he was going to reveal details of the operation allegedly performed on Mrs. Macron. The site also posted a video in which the surgeon claims to have supporting documents.
Radio station Franceinfo, in turn, denies this information. “The article claims that the surgeon who had evidence about Brigitte Macron’s sex change died as a result of a fall. This is false information,” the journalists said.
However, Franceinfo does not provide any official statements from the authorities or law enforcement agencies that could refute the fact of the surgeon’s death and the circumstances described in the Enquete du jour article.
Earlier it was reported that the court would consider the case of journalist Rey, who called Macron's wife a man.
It is worth noting that the other day Trump publicly asked Candace Owens to stop digging into the topic of Jean Michel.
He did? I missed that. Not that I care — my objection was to her setting her cap for one of her high school students, a friend of her daughter.
Macron himself asked Trump about this. Well, Jean Michel is behind Macron. Owens told Trump that Macron's wife had a sex change.
Dear Candace is a very pretty fantasist, but I can’t imagine her husband married her for her brains.
Trump offered her an exclusive interview if she stopped being interested in the topic of Macron's partner. Sooner or later the truth will come out.
Some heroes wear a Telnyashka [Regnum] In Disneyland Paris, a former Soviet paratrooper disrupted a fake wedding with a 9-year-old Ukrainian girl organized by a 39-year-old Briton. This was reported by the British publication The Mirror.
An attempt to stage a wedding between an adult man and a minor girl was prevented by former airborne serviceman Vitaly from Latvia, the report says.
According to The Guardian, 39-year-old Briton Jackie Judge, previously convicted of sexual crimes against minors, paid about 130 thousand euros for the lavish ceremony, hiring an orchestra and more than a hundred extras.
The role of the bride's father went to a 54-year-old Latvian. Vitaly, who believed that he was marrying off the girl's mother, only learned five hours before the ceremony that the "bride" would be a nine-year-old child.
The man refused to participate and decided to stop the "wedding." He used his military skills to sneak into the park without a ticket, then passed a note to one of the park employees warning him about what was happening, the authors noted. Disneyland employees called the police, and Judge was arrested. He is charged with money laundering and identity theft.
But not with child trafficking for immoral purposes? You’d think a Disney site would be extra protective of children. Thank goodness someone was.
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] In Zambia, during a morning walk in the South Luangwa National Park, an elephant trampled to death two tourists — a 68-year-old British woman and her 67-year-old friend from New Zealand. This is reported by the Daily Mail.
Before the incident, two women who were at the Big Lagoon Bush Camp decided to walk to the Luangwa River crossing before leaving, where they spotted a mother elephant nursing her baby.
The group strayed from their route and within minutes the enraged animal was chasing them. The New Zealander, who had problems with her leg, was the first to be caught. In an attempt to save the British citizen, the safari guides opened fire on the elephant, but this did not help prevent a tragedy.
Both women did not survive the attack.
As reported by Regnum, earlier in South Africa there was a mass escape of wild animals from the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi National Park. Lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalo and a pack of hyenas escaped through a damaged fence.
It is believed that the gap in the fence appeared due to illegal mining by local residents. The escaped animals are creating chaos in the surrounding settlements - the predators are attacking livestock, and one of the rhinos injured a woman.
Local residents constantly appeal to the authorities to restore the fence and neutralize the escaped animals or return them to the park. However, it is noted that the authorities are slow to respond and people have to live in constant fear.
[FoxNews] The National Guard was deployed in Texas on Friday after a devastating river flood killed at least 25 people and swept away dozens of children at a local Christian camp.
Heavy rain on Friday morning caused the Guadalupe River to rise nearly 30 feet in 45 minutes.
State officials confirmed Friday night that at least 25 people are dead, including adults and children. Among the deaths, 24 were reported in Kerr County and one was in Kendall County.
Between 23 and 25 people remain missing from Camp Mystic, an all-girls private Christian camp along the Guadalupe River, according to officials. The camp had more than 750 attendees.
Helicopters and military vehicles were used for evacuations. So far, 237 people have been evacuated, including 167 by helicopter, Major General Thomas Suelzer said when discussing Texas National Guard efforts.
"Day or night, whatever hour of the day, there will be local officials [and] state officials collaborating together," Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said at a news conference Friday night.
The governor said Homeland Secretary Kristi Noem and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum contacted him and offered federal assistance and resources.
"The federal government is leaning in and wants to assist the community here in the heart of Texas," Abbott said.
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick earlier urged parents of campers to avoid driving to the area, due to impassible roads.
"I know if it was one of my children, I would be tempted to want to drive there from Houston as well," Patrick said. "Once we're able to get some of those roads clear, when the rain stops, then we have 10 busses ready to go in and pick up the kids, and we'll find a point … where you can be reunited with your child and hug them. Hug them hard, because you know they're frightened."
The Kerrville Public Utility Board outage map showed nearly 3,000 people were without power, as of 11 p.m. eastern time.
Local funeral homes told Fox News Digital they are completely overwhelmed.
A local Walmart is being used as a temporary reunification center and shelters have been activated, according to the City of Kerrville Police Department.
The Red Cross is assisting, according to the Kerr County Sheriff's Office.
[AFRICANEWS] Tanzania's Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa has announced he will not seek re-election in October's parliamentary polls, ending his chances of being re-appointed to the role.
Majaliwa, 64, had earlier said he would defend his seat for a fourth term but made a surprise announcement on Wednesday, saying his decision was guided by God and made ''in good faith.''
''It is time to allow others to build on what we have started,'' he said, without giving further reasons for his withdrawal.
Appointed prime minister in 2015, Majaliwa was seen as a potential successor to the late President John Magufuli. He remained in office under President Samia Suluhu Hassan, who is seeking re-election under the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) party.
His exit comes shortly after Vice-President Philip Mpango announced his retirement in May, raising speculation that President Samia is consolidating her control within CCM as she shapes her leadership team for a potential second term.
Political analysts suggest Majaliwa's departure could be part of an effort to balance regional and religious representation in government. Tanzania has a Christian majority, while both Samia and Majaliwa are Moslems.
Majaliwa, a former teacher and junior minister under ex-President Jakaya Kikwete, is credited with ensuring a smooth political transition after Magufuli's death in 2021. He will remain a senior CCM official and support Samia's re-election bid.

These are some of the alleged mistreatments that protesters in Togo have experienced at the hands of security forces according to testimonies collected by Amnesty International.
The organization has called on Togo to end the "excessive and unnecessary" use of force against protesters, Amnesty said on Thursday.
Citizens in the capital Lomé erupted into the streets against constitutional reforms most recently from 26 to 28 June, although protests have happened on several occasions since the beginning of June.
These reforms could allow president Faure Gnassingbé to extend his twenty-year reign over the country indefinitely. Gnassingbé took office in 2005, following in the footsteps of his father, who had held power for 38 years.
Amnesty International said that it documented 13 testimonies describing a pattern of unlawful force and mistreatment by security forces and police during these protests.
[AFRICANEWS] Almost two years after he led a coup to end more than five decades of Bongo dynasty rule, Gabon's military leader Brice Oligui Nguema has announced he will run in April's presidential elections.
After the ouster of President Ali Bongo in August 2023, Nguema had vowed to give power back to civilians following a transitional period.
Given the green light in January by the transitional Parliament, a new electoral code enables members of the military and magistrates to run in elections.
Nguema made the announcement at a speech in Gabon's capital. The 50 year old said his vision for the nation was a ''Gabon rising from the ashes'', as he called on the crowd to get behind his candidacy.
To throw his hat in the ring for the role, the former head of the presidential guard will have to abandon his current role at least temporarily, according to Facebook page Infos CTRI officiel.
"If he's not elected, he will return to the barracks," the page added.
[AFRICANEWS] A mission from the West African Regional bloc, ECOWAS, has left Guinea-Bissau saying the president had threatened to expel it.
The team was sent to the country last month to help it reach a ''political consensus'' on how to conduct elections this year.
It said it had "prepared a draft agreement on a roadmap for elections'' and had started presenting it to the stakeholders for their consent.
But the team decided to leave early on Saturday morning after President Umaro Sissoco Embalo's threat.
It says it will now present its report to the ECOWAS president, including a proposal for an agreement leading to "inclusive and peaceful elections".
Embalo has not responded to the bloc's accusation.
There has been heightened tension in the country over when his five-year mandate ends. "It's five-ish"
The opposition say his term as president expired last week, but the Supreme Court of Justice ruled that it ends on 4 September.
A new round of general elections was due to take place last November, but Embalo postponed them and has since announced they will take place on the 30 November this year.
The opposition has opposed the delay.
Guinea-Bissau has experienced several military coups since independence in 1974, and there have been two attempts to overthrow Embalo, the latest in December 2023.
This led him to dissolve the opposition-dominated parliament.
The opposition last Thursday called for a nationwide strike, on the day they said the president's term was expiring, with the government deploying security forces across the capital.
Embalo travelled to Moscow the day before where he held talks with Russia President Vladimir Putin ...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance.

The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances... , reportedly discussing developing cooperation between the two countries.

.... Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, the Medical Superintendent (MS) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the District Headquarters (DHQ) Hospital in Pakpattan were arrested on Saturday in connection with the deaths of 20 children.
The chief minister made a surprise visit to the hospital and took immediate notice of the tragedy. On her instructions, police took MS Dr Adnan Ghaffar and CEO Health Dr Sohail into custody from the hospital premises.
According to government sources, the two officials were arrested for their alleged negligence and attempts to conceal facts related to the incident. A first information report (FIR) has also been registered against both officials.
The tragic deaths occurred between 16 and 22 June, prompting widespread outrage. Families of the dear departed children accused doctors and paramedical staff of negligence and alleged there was a shortage of oxygen cylinders in the facility.
However,
nothing needs reforming like other people's bad habits... preliminary reports compiled by the Punjab Health Department and Commissioner Sahiwal paint a more complex picture. According to sources, 15 of the dear departed children were born in private hospitals and brought to the government facility at death's door, while five deaths were linked to mishandled deliveries by untrained midwives.
Officials said the children's mothers were not brought along during transfer to the DHQ, further complicating treatment. The reports confirm that three private hospitals have been sealed as part of the ongoing investigation.
Contrary to earlier claims, Sherlocks found no evidence of oxygen shortage. Sources said the DHQ had 45 oxygen cylinders available, and a clinical audit of each child's arrival and treatment timeline was conducted.
The Punjab government spokesperson stated that the MS and others attempted to cover up the true cause of the incident, which warranted strict action.

Inshallah engineering at its best.
[GEO.TV] At least 11 people bit the dust — four women, six men, and a seven-year-old boy — and eight were rescued on Friday after a five-storey residential building collapsed in the Baghdadi area of Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... 's Lyari.
Rescue operations remain ongoing, with authorities estimating that up to 25 people may still be trapped under the rubble. Karachi Mayor Murtaza Wahab confirmed the fatalities to Geo News and said the building — constructed in 1974 — had been previously declared dangerous.
''There are more than 400 buildings that have been declared dangerous. We have two options: either persuade people to leave or evict them forcefully," the city's mayor said.
However,
a clean conscience makes a soft pillow... every government tries to persuade people rather than using force. Today's unfortunate event is proof that when the government tells you something, listen,'' he said.

[FoxNews] How H2L’s Capsule Interface is changing remote work, care and human-machine interaction
H2L, a Tokyo-based technology startup, has launched the Capsule Interface.
This breakthrough device lets you control robots with your entire body, transmitting not just movement but also physical force.
This technology is poised to transform how humans interact with robots and digital avatars, offering a new level of immersion and precision.
ADVANCED MUSCLE DISPLACEMENT SENSORS: THE HEART OF THE CAPSULE INTERFACE
At the core of the Capsule Interface are sophisticated muscle displacement sensors. Unlike conventional teleoperation systems that rely on motion sensors or exoskeletons, H2L's sensors detect even the smallest changes in muscle tension. This allows the device to capture both the intent and the effort behind every movement.
When you lift, push or grasp, the system measures how much force you're applying, transmitting that data to a remote robot in real time. The result is a more authentic, responsive and natural interaction between human and machine.

F-47 AND THE NGAD REVIVAL
Once stalled, the Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program roared back to life this spring under a new name and a new contract. Now designated the F-47, the program – awarded to Boeing – is designed to be the most advanced manned fighter in U.S. history. Its capabilities will include stealth, extended range, speeds exceeding Mach 2 and integration with a new class of AI-enabled drones called Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA).
The F-47 will serve as the "quarterback" for a team of 1,000 CCAs, controlling them in battle and coordinating sensor and targeting data in real time.
