🇮🇹 Protesters forced their way into Rome's historic Colosseum, briefly occupying the ancient landmark to demonstrate against the Italian government and the war in Gaza. The demonstrators remained inside for several minutes before moving out of the area. For now, the odds of anything gladiatorial breaking out in Rome are thankfully low. Writer: Mhedi t.co/ekUwLfTzYS

🇺🇸🇮🇱🇮🇷 Chabad of Bel Air Rabbi Mentz says Trump is NOT being a very good mensch: “He has to do something, and he has to go and bring it back to the Iranian regime as best as he can. No more negotiations. If he doesn’t have Congress, he doesn’t have the purse, and he has to do things before January!” I imagine there are significant consequences if he fails to act, right? Isn’t that what he’s getting at? Writer: Jamie t.co/joNqU0OOGp

🇦🇪 An offshore oil leak has forced authorities in the UAE to close beaches across three northern emirates, as emergency teams work to contain the spill and assess its environmental impact. Ras Al Khaimah, a northern UAE emirate known for its beaches and luxury resorts, has announced the closure of all its beaches until further notice. Similar restrictions have been introduced in the neighboring emirates of Umm Al Quwain and Sharjah, with coastal areas closed as a precaution. Residents have reported strong, unusual odors in several coastal areas, although UAE authorities say they pose no health risks. The leak has been traced to a tanker offshore, but officials have not identified the vessel or explained what caused the incident. The spill comes as the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war with Iran has heightened concerns about maritime security and environmental risks across the Gulf. For now, authorities are urging fishermen and other sea users to avoid affected waters while containment and environmental assessments continue.

🇧🇷 Controversies are intensifying in the final hours of Brazil's presidential election, with Lula facing questions over welfare payments, financial transparency and allegations involving social media platforms. Lula agreed to disclose their financial and telephone records, including information involving family members and associated businesses. However, none of them have been made public. Meanwhile, his government increased payments under Bolsa Família, Brazil's welfare program for low-income families, by 15%, raising the minimum monthly benefit from R$600 to R$691 just days before the election. The timing has drawn scrutiny, particularly after documents showed the proposal was formally submitted to the presidency only one day before the increase was announced in September. Brazil's electoral court has also ordered Meta to explain how political content is distributed following accusations that the platform may have not acted impartially towards the candidates. Meta denies favoring either candidate, while Bolsonaro's campaign has raised complaints about content supporting Lula. Source: CNN Brasil / Writer: Mhedi

🇺🇸 Trump is reportedly considering sweeping preemptive pardons for thousands of administration staffers ahead of the midterms. The proposal comes due to rising concerns that Democrats would launch investigations against him if they regain control of Congress. White House attorneys are now said to be exploring protections for officials involved in Trump's immigration, trade and military policies, shielding them from potential legal battles. Trump says he hasn't seriously considered the proposal but insists he has the constitutional authority to issue such pardons. In a statement of the matter, he said, “I certainly don't want to see innocent people go through hell and lose all their money." Source: Daily Mail / Writer: Mhedi

🇧🇷 Brazilians are heading to the polls today for an extremely close presidential race between Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro. The latest polls show the two candidates virtually tied, although Bolsonaro finished ahead in the first round earlier this month. Lula, 80, is seeking a fourth non-consecutive term, while Flávio, the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, is campaigning to return the country's right wing to power. Both candidates made their final campaign appearances yesterday, with Lula rallying supporters in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Bolsonaro, meanwhile, addressed a MASSIVE crowd of supporters in Belo Horizonte, in the crucial state of Minas Gerais, before heading to Rio. Source: Sky News / Writer: Mhedi t.co/144HW6SBe1

Tesla is building Megapacks as fast as humanly possible. That's exactly what the AI boom needs. Demand is through the roof, with almost all of 2027's production already sold out. The reason? AI data centres are hungry for electricity, and these giant batteries help keep the power steady when demand spikes. Tesla is ramping production to get more energy storage where it's needed, as quickly as possible. The AI industry wants more power. Tesla is working flat out to deliver it. @Tesla @TeslaEnergy / Writer: Annette, Designer: Janné

🇺🇸 NEW drug combo cuts the risk of dying by 58% in AGGRESSIVE lung cancers cases. Amgen’s drug Imdelltra was added to AstraZeneca’s drug Imfinzi. The patients had small cell lung cancer that had already spread beyond the lung. Half the patients on the combo lived at least 21 months. With Imfinzi alone, it was under 13. Nearly 80% were alive after one year. Without Imdelltra, it was 53%. It worked even when the cancer had spread to the brain or liver. That’s usually the worst news in this disease. About 31,000 Americans get this cancer every year. But these are early results. Everyone in the trial had already been through chemo with no sign of the cancer growing. Amgen says this could almost turn the cancer into something people live with for years. Investors noticed too, with Imdelltra sales up 115% in a year. Source: CNBC / Writer: Bri
