A 57-year-old German tourist died after a snake bite during a show in Hurghada, Egypt. The incident occurred when a snake charmer let a snake crawl into the man’s trousers, resulting in immediate poisoning and shock. An investigation by Bavarian police is underway.
Ukrainian soldiers rescued a 72-year-old woman using a robotic vehicle named Cerberus. Spotted by an aerial drone walking through a war-torn area near Lyman, the soldiers draped a blanket over the bot with the message “Grandma, hop on!” to facilitate her evacuation.
US President Donald Trump has accused NATO allies of cowardice for failing to assist in reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a critical route for global oil supplies. Tensions escalated following Spain’s denial of access to US military bases, prompting speculation over US reassessment of NATO relations.
Germany’s Bundestag is poised to vote on a significant fiscal package that proposes amendments to longstanding debt policies, aiming to facilitate increased defence spending and establish a €500 billion infrastructure and climate fund.
The vote is seen as a response to Russia’s advances in Ukraine as the United States makes clear Europe can no longer rely on US protection from Russia.
Supporters of lifting the debt restrictions to boost defence spending say it’s essential for European security but there is also opposition. The decision could influence broader European defence initiatives, like the EU’s proposed €800 billion ReArm Europe fund.
