A federal judge ruled that recent mass layoffs at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services were likely unlawful and ordered the Trump administration to halt plans to downsize and reorganize the nation’s health workforce.

On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Melissa DuBose granted the preliminary injunction sought by a coalition of attorneys general from 19 states and the District of Columbia in a lawsuit filed in early May.

DuBose said the states had shown “irreparable harm,” from the cuts and were likely to prevail in their claims that “HHS’s action was both arbitrary and capricious as well as contrary to law.”

Family members of a Black teenager shot and killed by police in an Alabama suburb say they want answers and are seeking to see the body camera footage of the shooting.

Jabari Peoples, 18, was shot June 23 by a police officer in the parking lot of a soccer field in Homewood, an affluent suburb near the central city of Birmingham.

The family is disputing the police version of events. Leroy Maxwell, Jr., an attorney representing the family, said Peoples was shot in the back and, according to a witness, did not have a weapon when approached by the officer.

A cyber hacker broke into a database containing the personal information of millions of customers, Qantas said, in Australia's biggest breach in years and a setback for an airline rebuilding trust after a reputational crisis.

The hacker targeted a call centre and gained access to a third-party customer service platform containing six million names, email addresses, phone numbers, birth dates and frequent flyer numbers, Qantas said in a statement on Wednesday.

The airline did not specify the location of the call centre or customers whose information was compromised. It said it learnt of the breach after detecting unusual activity on the platform and acted immediately to contain it.

Even some of his supporters say Andrew M. Cuomo ran an aloof campaign for mayor that underestimated his chief rival, Zohran Mamdani.

Former president makes thinly veiled swipe at US president’s cuts to HIV and aids initiative

George W Bush has issued a rare critique of Donald Trump over his shuttering of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

The former president joined Barack Obama and U2 singer Bono in an emotional video call farewell with staff at the agency on Monday when it officially ceased operations.

After six decades, the humanitarian organisation created by former president John F Kennedy to promote US national security by boosting prosperity and goodwill abroad, is being absorbed into the State Department under the supervision of Marco Rubio.

Well-known AI chatbots can be configured to routinely answer health queries with false information that appears authoritative, complete with fake citations from real medical journals, Australian researchers have found.

Without better internal safeguards, widely used AI tools can be easily deployed to churn out dangerous health misinformation at high volumes, they warned in the Annals of Internal Medicine.

“If a technology is vulnerable to misuse, malicious actors will inevitably attempt to exploit it - whether for financial gain or to cause harm,” said senior study author Ashley Hopkins of Flinders University College of Medicine and Public Health in Adelaide.

Generated Summary below:

Main Topic: The video discusses the outrage and media firestorm surrounding Bobby Vylan's chants of "Death to the IDF" and "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" at Glastonbury, contrasting it with the comparatively muted response to the alleged atrocities committed by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) against Palestinians.

Key Points:

• Double Standard: The speaker argues that there's a stark contrast between the condemnation of Vylan's chants and the lack of outrage over alleged IDF actions, including the killing of unarmed civilians seeking humanitarian aid.
• IDF Actions: The video cites a report from the Israeli newspaper Haaretz detailing alleged orders for IDF soldiers to deliberately shoot at unarmed Palestinians near food distribution sites. It also lists a series of alleged war crimes committed by the IDF.
• "From the River to the Sea": The speaker defends the chant "From the river to the sea," arguing that for many, it represents a call for equal rights for all Palestinians living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, not the eradication of Israel.
• Criminal Investigations: The speaker criticizes the criminal investigations launched against Bobby Vylan and the Irish band Kneecap for their pro-Palestinian stances, while those who arm the IDF are not investigated.
• Misrepresentation: The speaker accuses media outlets of misrepresenting Vylan's chants, falsely claiming he called for the death of Israelis, rather than the IDF.
• Anti-Semitism: The speaker argues that conflating Jewish people with the actions of the IDF is a form of anti-Semitism.
• Irony: The speaker points out the irony that those condemning Vylan for calling for the death of the IDF are the same ones supporting policies that lead to the deaths of IDF soldiers.

Highlights:

• The speaker emphasizes the alleged hypocrisy of Western media and politicians in condemning chants against the IDF while downplaying or ignoring alleged IDF atrocities.
• The video presents a strong defense of the chant "From the river to the sea," arguing that it is not inherently anti-Semitic.
• The speaker predicts that those complicit in the alleged genocide will eventually be held accountable.

"In a paragraph, let’s review: A machine politician, former governor and scion of a political dynasty lost to a 33-year-old Muslim, immigrant, and socialist who is unapologetically critical of Israel. The political ruling class and the news media assumed Andrew Cuomo, but more than that, they dismissed the people’s choice, assembling their pipe dream on the it’s-the-party-elder’s-turn proposition.

I didn’t expect Mamdani to win. I thought the Party machinery was unbeatable. I was wrong. I’ve learned some mind-bending lessons.

China has become trendy for Russians who once worshiped everything Western. Young people are learning Mandarin, and Chinese culture and goods have become ubiquitous in Moscow.

Chinese cars have become a common sight on Moscow streets. Members of the Russian elite are hiring Chinese nannies to encourage their children to learn Mandarin early. The capital’s museums and performance centers are clamoring to put on Chinese exhibitions and shows.

In Moscow, the few public schools that offer Chinese are oversubscribed, and Mandarin is a staple not only at linguistic universities, but also at technical schools. Employment vacancies requiring Chinese have soared in recent years, according to a popular job website.

A rare astronomical sight is unfolding in the southern sky. Two exploding stars are shining so brightly that both can be viewed with the naked eye.

It’s hard to predict how long these “fascinating objects” will remain that radiant, but stargazers may have another four to five nights to witness the dual phenomena, says astronomer Juan Luna of the Universidad Nacional de Hurlingham in Buenos Aires.

These stellar bursts are considered novas. Unlike star-killing supernovas, the dimmer blasts only affect a star’s outer region. A nova occurs when a dense white dwarf star pulls material from its companion star, which are stuck together in a binary system. The stolen gas accumulates, heating up and building pressure until it explodes and suddenly lights up the sky.

One of the current novas was first spotted on June 12. Named V462 Lupi, it’s located within the Lupus constellation best seen from the Southern Hemisphere, though some people have reported seeing it from the United States. The eruption reached peak brightness on June 20, and now it’s slowly dimming, Luna says.

In contrast, the second nova, called V572 Velorum, seems to be changing intensity very quickly, he says. It was detected on June 25, reached peak brightness two days later and is in the southern constellation Vela.

A recent survey by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and Morning Consult found that a majority of US adults incorrectly believe that a plant-based diet is more expensive than one that includes meat and dairy. 

The survey, which polled 2,206 US adults between June 10 and June 12, 2025, revealed that more than 60% of respondents share this view. Baby Boomers were the most likely to think that plant-based eating is significantly more expensive, with 67% of them believing plant-based foods cost somewhat or much more than a typical Standard American Diet.
