Rock legend Jon Bon Jovi is being praised for stopping a suicide attempt in Nashville in the US on Tuesday evening, the BBC writes.

“Bon Jovi helped persuade the woman to climb back from the edge over the Cumberland River, back to safety,” they write according to the BBC.

North Korea has resumed robot tests after a two-month hiatus. According to South Korea’s military, several ballistic missiles were fired into the sea in North Korean waters early Thursday.

The tests come after the country’s dictator Kim Jong-Un has recently declared that North Korea is building up its ability to strike enemies with nuclear weapons.

In July, when the latest tests were carried out, the country claimed to have test-fired a robot capable of carrying an extra-large payload. North Korea designates the United States and its allies as serious threats. Some observers believe the country is preparing a nuclear or long-range missile test before the US presidential election in November, to show its muscle to the new US leadership.

Nathan Clark in Springfield, Ohio, is asking Donald Trump and JD Vance to stop talking about his dead son.

Then Nathan Clark and his wife had enough.

Clark said in a three-minute speech that he wished his son had been killed by a 60-year-old white man instead. Then the family had escaped the tricks of “hateful people”.

The most famous and iconic portrait of Winston Churchill stolen from an Ottawa hotel has been found in Italy – and the thief has been arrested, police say.

The ‘Roaring Lion’ portrait – depicting Churchill with a grim look – was donated to the Fairmont Chateau Laurier hotel by photographer Yousuf Karsh.

It was in August 2022 that hotel staff noticed that the portrait had been replaced with a forgery.

But now local police say that with the help of tips from the public and forensic investigations, they were able to trace the stolen portrait to Genoa. In addition, the culprit has been found – a 43-year-old man who lives 37 kilometers west of Ottawa.

– This portrait is not only an irreplaceable work of art, but also a significant part of our hotel’s history, says hotel manager Genevieve Dumas.

Haiti’s government condemns Donald Trump’s “disparaging comments” during Tuesday’s presidential debate.

Trump repeated claims that immigrants from Haiti are eating people’s pets in the state of Ohio.

“Unfortunately, this is not the first time that foreign nationals have fallen victim to disinformation campaigns, been dehumanized and stigmatized to serve political ends,” the Haitian government said in a statement.

When moderator David Muir refuted his claims, Trump insisted he had “seen people on TV” saying their dog had been eaten.

“We strongly deny these statements, which undermine the dignity of our citizens and, by extension, may endanger their lives,” says the Haitian government.

It was in a local Facebook group for residents of the city of Springfield, Ohio, that false claims began to spread about Haitian immigrants eating pets.
