Protests were held outside a hotel in Manchester where U.S. immigration official Gregory Bovino is reportedly staying, according to the BBC. Tom Bateman reported that protesters spent the evening banging drums and chanting outside the hotel. No clashes were reported, and it is not clear why Bovino is in Manchester.

Three individuals shared their stories of life-altering experiences in a series of articles. The first person, who chose to remain anonymous, shared how traveling with a man she had known for only two days led to a profound transformation. She recounted how their shared experiences helped her rebuild her identity and confidence.

Aston Villa produced an 'extraordinary' performance as they clinched their first win at Newcastle since the infamous 2005 encounter. The BBC reported that the team's 2-1 victory was their first at St. James' Park in 17 years. Aston Villa supporters were ecstatic, and the team's manager praised his players for their determination and resilience.

Former Nigerian oil minister Diezani Alison-Madueke is standing trial in a London court on bribery charges. Prosecutors allege that she took bribes, including luxury goods and private jet travel, according to the Guardian. Alison-Madueke denies the charges, and the trial is ongoing.

Ryanair Holdings Plc reported increased passenger growth and fares, benefiting from improved Boeing Co. aircraft deliveries and stronger travel demand. The Irish budget carrier raised its full-year guidance, citing an uptick in bookings and a more optimistic outlook for the travel industry.
