Brazil’s top court announced Tuesday that it is lifting the ban on X. The announcement comes after Elon Musk’s social media platform was blocked in its biggest Latin American market, with 22 million users, for more than a month due to a row over misinformation.

“I approve the immediate resumption of the social platform’s operations,” Judge Alexandre de Moraes said in his decision.

X has paid millions of dollars in fines for violating court orders related to the fight against disinformation.

During the corona pandemic, Donald Trump allegedly sent a covid test to Vladimir Putin in Russia. That is what the legendary Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward writes in the as yet unpublished book “War”.

According to the Washington Post, which received access to Woodward’s script, Putin gratefully accepted the covid test as he was terrified of contracting covid-19. He is also said to have urged Trump not to tell anyone that he sent medical equipment to Russia.

Bob Woodward is best known for having, together with his colleague Carl Bernstein, done the journalistic work that led to the Watergate scandal and, by extension, the resignation of President Richard Nixon.

The book “War” will be published on 15 October.

The UK is facing a “staggering increase” in the number of attempted murders carried out by other states, the MI5 intelligence service has announced.

Russia and Iran often turn to criminals, “from international drug traffickers to low-level crooks” to do the “dirty work”, says Ken McCallum, Director General of MI5.

The number of state threat investigations carried out by MI5 has increased by 48 per cent in the past year. Iran, Russia and China have been the main perpetrators, says McCallum.

Since January 2022, MI5 and the police have dealt with 20 potentially deadly Iran-backed plots in the UK, up from the 15 the government announced in January.
