This airworthiness directive affects an estimated 471 U.S.-registered 737 Max 8s, Max 9s, and Max 8-200 airplanes, warning that undetected damage could compromise structural integrity. Cracks were specifically found in a structural reinforcement near the forward service door on the right side of the aircraft, and airlines must repair any cracking before returning affected planes to service.

A 25-year-old Afghan man received a life sentence from a German court for ramming his car into a union rally in Munich last year, an attack that killed two people and injured over 40.

Tucker Carlson used a Wednesday livestream to present a 10-point vision for America, outlining the worldview of a "breakaway MAGA faction" increasingly at odds with President Trump.

A federal judge has temporarily halted a deadline for former President Donald Trump to submit financial documents to the BBC, a request made as part of Trump's defamation lawsuit against the network. The lawsuit centers on the BBC's editing of Trump's January 6, 2021, speech in a documentary, which Trump claims maliciously implied he incited violence. Trump's legal team is seeking to amend the lawsuit to remove the necessity for the BBC to access his confidential financial records, aiming to narrow the case's scope to personal reputational harm.
