Crowds of far-right Israelis chanted insults and assaulted Palestinians during an annual parade for Jerusalem Day on Monday. Chants of "death to Arabs" and nationalistic slogans were repeated during the event, which commemorates Israeli forces taking Palestinian-majority East Jerusalem during the 1967 Arab-Israeli war. Violence broke out as ultranationalist Jews streamed into Palestinian areas of Jerusalem's walled Old City.

A baby howler monkey clung to the back of an older male monkey, its tiny fingers grasping fur. But they’re not related and not even the same species. Scientists spotted surprising evidence of what they describe as monkey kidnappings while reviewing video from a small island of Panama. The capuchin monkeys were seen carrying at least 11 howler babies between 2022 and 2023.

NEW YORK — A cryptocurrency investor has been arrested and charged with kidnapping a man and keeping him locked up for weeks in an upscale Manhattan apartment, where authorities say he was beaten, shocked and led to believe that his family was in danger if he didn’t give up his Bitcoin password. John Woeltz, 37, was arrested Friday night after the victim escaped from the eight-bedroom town house and flagged down a traffic officer on the street for help, according to prosecutors.

The pilot for the voluntary chemical castration of sex offenders will be extended to 20 prisons in England, the justice secretary has said. Shabana Mahmood said she would expand a small pilot in south-west England to two regions, after an independent sentencing review recommended it continue. Mahmood is also exploring a national rollout of voluntary chemical castration for sex offenders, and whether it could be made mandatory. No timeline for this decision has been set. Forensic psychiatry Prof Don Grubin said he did not think the government would "get the mandatory element of it off the ground" as to "simply make somebody take [the treatment] would be very unethical and...most doctors I know would be resistant to it".

A private jet crashed into military housing in San Diego during foggy weather early Thursday, igniting cars parked along a suburban neighbourhood block and killing multiple people on board the plane, authorities said. The plane could hold eight to 10 people but it’s not yet known how many were on the aircraft, Assistant San Diego Fire Chief Dan Eddy said at a news conference. Authorities will be investigating whether the plane hit a power line, he said. The aircraft crashed just before 4 a.m. into the U.S. military’s largest housing neighborhood. It appeared to strike at least one home that had a charred and collapsed roof and smash through half a dozen vehicles. About 10 homes suffered damage.

A federal judge on Wednesday scolded federal prosecutors and announced he will dismiss trespassing charges against Newark Mayor Ras Baraka related to a standoff at a migrant detention center. Interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba announced earlier this week she would drop charges against Baraka (but at the same time announced new charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver stemming from a scuffle during Baraka’s arrest). Federal magistrate judge Andre Espinosa reprimanded the federal prosecutors for more than five minutes, calling the retraction of the charges “embarrassing.” “The hasty arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, followed swiftly by the dismissal of these trespassing charges a mere 13 days later, suggests a worrying misstep by your office,” Espinosa said. “An arrest, particularly of a public figure, is not a preliminary investigative tool. It is a severe action, carrying significant reputational and personal consequences, and it should only be undertaken after a thorough, dispassionate evaluation of credible evidence.” The judge directed his comments to Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephen Demanovich — the judge said Demanovich had acted appropriately throughout the case, but as the representative of the U.S. Attorney’s Office, he was responsible for hearing the message.

Art-music master Brian Eno is the composer of what might be one of the most-heard pieces of music in history, even if much of the world doesn’t necessarily process it as a piece of music. Eno made the famous Windows ’95 chime — the seven-second sound that would play whenever you’d start up a PC. Earlier this year, Eno’s chime went into the Library Of Congress’ National Recording Registry. Now, Eno is using his famous Microsoft association to call on the company to end its partnership with Israel, and he’s also promising to donate the fees from his Windows ’95 chime fee to victims of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This morning, Brian Eno posted “Not In My Name,” an open letter to Microsoft, on Instagram.
