  • Treasure Hunter Released: Tommy Thompson, a US treasure hunter, has been released from prison after serving 10 years for refusing to reveal the location of 500 missing gold coins. Thompson was convicted of contempt of court in 2015 for failing to comply with a court order to disclose the location of the coins, which were found in a historic shipwreck.
  • Terror Charges: Two teens, Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi, have been charged with terrorism-related offenses after allegedly throwing explosive devices at right-wing anti-Islam protesters in New York. The incident has raised concerns about the rise of extremism in the US.
  • Oil Pipeline Row: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused European allies of "blackmail" in a row over an oil pipeline. The pipeline, which transports Russian oil to Hungary and Slovakia, was damaged in January and has yet to be repaired. Hungary is blocking EU sanctions on Russia and a vital loan for Ukraine until the pipeline is reopened.
  • Royals and Celebrities Warned: Royals and celebrities have been warned to watch their words after a lip-reading phenomenon has led to videos being posted online and translated in seconds. The warning comes after Prince William was embroiled in controversy over a video of him speaking to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
  • Ugandan Opposition Leader Flees: Bobi Wine, the Ugandan opposition leader, has fled the country after spending two months in hiding. Wine claims to have won the presidential election, which was disputed in January.
