  Norway’s national lottery, Norsk Tipping, has issued a public apology after a coding error led to thousands of players being mistakenly informed they had won massive sums in the Eurojackpot lottery. The error occurred during the conversion of prize amounts from euros to Norwegian kroner. Instead of dividing the amounts by 100, the system multiplied them—artificially inflating the winnings by a factor of 10,000. Push notifications and messages were sent out to customers with the incorrect figures, causing widespread excitement before the company issued a correction. “Norsk Tipping sincerely apologizes to everyone who was notified of an incorrect prize amount,” the company said in a statement. The mistake was attributed to a “manual coding error,” though the company confirmed that no customers were paid out the incorrect amounts. In a follow-up statement, CEO Tonje Sagstuen expressed personal regret: “I am terribly sorry that we have disappointed so many, and I understand that peop...

  British police are reviewing video footage from this year’s Glastonbury Festival after performances by music groups Bob Vylan and Kneecap drew intense backlash, including accusations of hate speech and incitement to violence. During a Saturday performance on the West Holts Stage, rapper Bobby Vylan of the rap-punk duo Bob Vylan led chants including “Free, free Palestine,” before shouting “Death, death to the IDF,” referencing Israel’s military forces. The artist performed in front of a screen displaying the message: “United Nations have called it a genocide. The BBC calls it a ‘conflict,’” in criticism of the broadcaster's language. The remarks were widely condemned by UK leaders and organizations. Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the chants “appalling hate speech,” while the Israeli Embassy in London said it was “deeply disturbed” by what it labeled as “inflammatory and hateful” rhetoric. “This raises serious concerns about the normalisation of extremist language and the glori...

  What began as a standard brush fire response on Canfield Mountain in northern Idaho turned into a deadly ambush Sunday when a gunman allegedly opened fire on responding firefighters, killing two and seriously injuring a third. Officials believe the suspect intentionally started the fire to lure emergency responders to the scene. “This was a total ambush. These firefighters did not have a chance,” said Kootenai County Sheriff Bob Norris during a press conference Sunday night. The tragic attack set off a massive emergency operation and an hours-long manhunt through rugged terrain, as gunfire continued even after law enforcement arrived. How the Attack Unfolded At approximately 1:21 p.m., a report of a fire came in from the east side of Canfield Mountain near Coeur d’Alene. Just before 2 p.m., deployed firefighters reported gunfire from the surrounding area. “Send law enforcement right now, there’s an active shooter zone. They’re shot,” one firefighter told dispatchers. “BC three is...

  A Ukrainian pilot was killed when his F-16 fighter jet crashed during one of the largest aerial assaults Russia has launched since the start of the war, Ukraine’s military reported on Sunday. The pilot, identified as 1st Class Lt. Col. Maksym Ustymenko, was the third Ukrainian F-16 pilot lost since the country began operating the advanced American-made jets last summer. Ustymenko's jet was the fourth F-16 lost during that time. According to the Ukrainian air force, he made a valiant attempt to steer the aircraft away from populated areas but was unable to eject in time. Ustymenko’s death marks a significant loss for Ukraine. F-16 pilots undergo months of intensive training, and only a limited number have reached operational readiness to fly the advanced fighters. President Volodymyr Zelensky praised Ustymenko for destroying seven enemy targets before his death and hailed the Ukrainian air force for its continued defense of the nation’s skies under relentless pressure. According t...

  An Israeli airstrike on Iran’s Evin Prison in Tehran on Monday left 71 people dead, according to Mizan, the Iranian judiciary’s official news outlet. Among the dead were prison staff, conscripted soldiers, inmates, visiting family members, legal visitors, and residents living near the facility, said judiciary spokesperson Asghar Jahangir on Sunday. The strike also caused significant damage to the surrounding area, state-affiliated Fars News Agency reported. Evin Prison, long notorious for its harsh conditions and human rights abuses, has held numerous political prisoners, journalists, and artists over the years. The strike on its entrance marks a rare and controversial escalation in the conflict between Israel and Iran. Israel’s Defense Minister confirmed Evin Prison was among several targets hit during the operation, along with the main building of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the headquarters of the Basij, a paramilitary wing of the IRGC. No detailed explana...

  Severe storms have triggered hundreds of flight cancellations and delays at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, just as the busy Fourth of July travel season begins. By early Saturday afternoon, over 450 flights into and out of the Atlanta airport — the world’s busiest — had been canceled, with hundreds more delayed, according to data from FlightAware. Delta Air Lines, which operates its primary hub out of Atlanta, has been the hardest hit. Approximately 14% of its flights were canceled as the airline continues efforts to restore service following Friday night’s storm. In a statement, Delta confirmed that disruptions are expected to continue through the weekend as recovery operations continue. “Severe weather overnight is causing delays and cancellations,” the airport stated in a post on X (formerly Twitter). On Friday evening, powerful winds forced the evacuation of most air traffic controllers from the control tower, according to the Federal Aviation Administratio...

  A 20-year-old woman was bitten while swimming in waist-deep water at Jones Beach State Park on Long Island earlier this week, in what officials believe was likely an encounter with a juvenile sand tiger shark. Emergency medical personnel and lifeguards quickly responded after the woman reported being bitten around 4:15 p.m. Wednesday. She was transported to a nearby hospital and treated for non-life-threatening lacerations to her left foot and leg, described by authorities as "minor." This marked the first shark-related incident reported at the beach in 2025, prompting heightened safety measures just ahead of the busy Fourth of July weekend. The swimmer said she did not see the animal that bit her, and beach officials immediately suspended swimming while drones were deployed to search for any potential marine threats. No sharks or dangerous wildlife were detected in the immediate aftermath. Before reopening the beach on Thursday, authorities conducted another round of drone...

  A diverse coalition of demonstrators — including environmentalists, Native American leaders, and concerned residents — gathered Saturday in the heart of the Florida Everglades to protest the rapid construction of a new immigration detention center on ancestral and ecologically sensitive land. Lining a stretch of U.S. Highway 41, known as the Tamiami Trail, protesters held signs and chanted as dump trucks carrying construction materials rumbled past them into a remote airstrip. Supportive drivers honked as the crowd called for the protection of the Everglades, a unique and fragile ecosystem that is home to endangered species and Indigenous communities. Ecologist and city commissioner Christopher McVoy joined the protest out of concern for the environmental damage and the broader implications for immigrant communities. “People I know are in tears,” he said. “And I wasn’t far from it.” The project, already nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” has moved forward swiftly under emergency pow...

  It’s just before midnight in Santa Monica, and a masked man in overalls quietly approaches a driverless taxi in a back alley, duct tape in hand. His goal? To disable the vehicle’s sensors. “We just want the Waymos to stop beeping at night,” he says. “They’re really disturbing us. They’re disturbing our neighbors.” He’s one of a group that calls themselves “stackers,” residents who block access to two Waymo charging lots near downtown Santa Monica. By forcing the autonomous vehicles to line up in the alley, the stackers prevent them from entering the facilities, which opened in January with no public notification. “We’re just running some routine experiments to see what it takes to properly stack a Waymo,” one protester remarks. “We’ll try lasering the next one.” Waymo, owned by Alphabet (Google’s parent company), has about 300 driverless robotaxis operating throughout Los Angeles County. While the service has become popular with passengers, some residents near the charging facili...

  An Amber Alert has been issued for two missing Idaho teenagers who authorities believe are en route to a Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS) community in Utah. Thirteen-year-old Allen Larand Fischer and fifteen-year-old Rachelle Leray Fischer were reported missing Sunday from Monteview, Idaho. Idaho State Police say the siblings may be traveling with adult family members and heading to Trenton, Utah—a location they previously lived in and which is known to have FLDS ties. The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office said the teens are believed to have willingly left due to religious beliefs. Their mother, Elizabeth Roundy, confirmed she has sole legal custody of both children and is a former member of the FLDS church. The FLDS is a breakaway sect from the mainstream Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, notable for its practice of polygamy and strict isolation from the outside world. Critics and former members have long warned about the group’s treat...

  President Donald Trump speaks to reporters on the South Lawn at the White House on June 15. The Supreme Court broadly gave President Donald Trump a win Friday in its first major case over his agenda, as the court limited lower court judges’ ability to block his policies nationwide, though the court side-stepped the question of whether his policy restricting birthright citizenship is constitutional. Key Facts The Supreme Court issued its ruling in Trump v. CASA Inc., a case consolidating several lawsuits against Trump’s executive order, which reverses longstanding Constitutional precedent to bar children born in the U.S. from automatically getting citizenship at birth if their parents aren’t U.S. citizens or permanent residents. The president asked justices to more broadly rule on whether federal judges representing a single state or region can impose injunctions that block a policy nationwide, meaning courts would not be able to unilaterally block his agenda going forward unless ...
