Somalia declares order restored after two days of fighting in Mogadishu | Conflict News

Violence that paralysed two Mogadishu districts subsides, but opposition rejects president’s rule and vows to fight on. Mogadishu, Somalia – Fighting between government forces and opposition fighters that paralysed parts of Somalia’s capital, Mogadishu, for more than two days has eased, with the federal government declaring that it has restored order. The violence erupted on Wednesday, and the government declared the districts of Abdiaziz and Hawlwadag calm on Friday. Recommended Stories list of 3 itemsend of list “Opposition group militias have been disarmed and removed, and civilians have returned ‌to their daily lives,” the Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism said in a statement. The violence stems from a dispute over whether President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, the incumbent, will stay in power. He says parliament lawfully extended his term, while the opposition has called it a power grab. It was the deadliest unrest in the capital in years, with each side blaming the other for the initial outbreak of fighting. For almost two days, bursts of gunfire and loud explosions rang out across Mogadishu. Residential …

Strava declares war on scrapers ahead of IPO

Strava declares war on scrapers ahead of IPO

AI companies have grown into data-hungry entities as their models require ever-larger datasets to train on. To meet that need, many AI startups defy long-standing internet conventions — like respecting robots.txt files, which signal to automated crawlers which parts of a website are off-limits — and scrape data aggressively. This has forced websites to restrict access to their data and, in some cases, strike licensing deals with AI companies. Fitness and social running company Strava is making a move in this direction by restricting its website and introducing fees for developer access. To stop scraping, the company is increasing security around its website and will now only allow authenticated users to view certain data. Earlier, users were able to see details like public profiles and fitness club listings without logging in. The company is putting all that data behind authentication to protect it from unauthorized AI scraping. On the API front, developers could previously start building apps on Strava through a free, tiered access program — applying for basic access first, then requesting more as …

He’s “Full Of Sh!t”: JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon Slams Coinbase’s Armstrong, Declares War On Clarity Act

He’s “Full Of Sh!t”: JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon Slams Coinbase’s Armstrong, Declares War On Clarity Act

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has drawn a battle line in Washington: the Clarity Act, as written, is dead on arrival – and Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is the enemy driving it. In a Fox Business interview late last week, Dimon unloaded on the pending crypto market structure legislation, calling it a threat to the financial system and a gift to an industry that wants the privileges of banking without the responsibilities. “It allows cryptocurrency firms to effectively pay interest on deposits – stablecoins or something like that – without the protection that they should have,” Dimon said. “It has almost no legal protections.” Jamie Dimon went on Fox and called Brian Armstrong “full of sh!t” over stablecoins. 😳 Jamie is the GOAT. Love him or loathe him, you absolutely know where he stands. What stood out to me in the clip was to hear the CEO of America’s biggest bank promise to fight, and admit he… pic.twitter.com/Jjbfj7zim9 — Simon Taylor (@sytaylor) May 31, 2026 As Micah Zimmerman reports for BitcoinMagazine.com, Dimon’s core argument: if a crypto …

Malta’s prime minister declares historic victory in snap election – POLITICO

Malta’s prime minister declares historic victory in snap election – POLITICO

Abela called a snap election in April, four years into his five-year term, amid fears the war in Iran and the ensuing economic shock could erode support for his government. Alex Borg, leader of the opposition Nationalists Party, appeared to concede defeat on Sunday, saying the outcome was “not the result we wanted, but it’s a very clear message.” Abela’s victory was widely expected, with polling ahead of Saturday’s vote showing his Labour Party on top. Still, the Labour Party’s majority appeared to be considerably smaller than its last victory in 2022, with around 18,000 votes separating the government from the opposition. The election was fiercely fought and drew some surprise interventions from Brussels, with Malta’s EU Commissioner Glenn Micallef, who was Abela’s chief of staff, controversially endorsing the prime minister in a campaign speech, and European Parliament President Roberta Metsola appearing at campaign stops alongside Borg.

Trump declares prediction markets patriotic while state regulators wonder if they’re gambling

Trump declares prediction markets patriotic while state regulators wonder if they’re gambling

Trump just posted what may be the most aggressively pro-prediction-market presidential rant in modern American history — a sentence that somehow exists now. In a sprawling Truth Social post, President Donald Trump threw his full support behind prediction markets, declared America the “Crypto Capital of the World,” praised his handpicked CFTC chair, attacked blue-state regulators, and effectively told the gambling-law crowd to get lost. “It is critically important that the CFTC’s exclusive authority over Prediction Markets is maintained, and that they will thrive,” Trump wrote Monday, framing the industry not as online betting with extra spreadsheets, but as a patriotic financial innovation project. pic.twitter.com/W4ZqJxO1KR — Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) May 26, 2026 And just in case anyone missed the message, Trump added that prediction markets are a “new form of Financial Market” that other countries are “after,” because apparently the global race for dominance now includes both artificial intelligence and betting on whether Taylor Swift will attend the Super Bowl. The post marks Trump’s clearest endorsement yet of the prediction market industry’s favorite legal argument …

The Met Office has announced temperatures hit 33.5C at Heathrow today, May 25 – beating the all-time May record.

Newsom Declares Emergency In Orange County; EPA Head Says Chemical Tank Will “Likely Fail”

Newsom Declares Emergency In Orange County; EPA Head Says Chemical Tank Will “Likely Fail”

The head of the Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) said Sunday that a chemical storage tank in Southern California that has forced officials to declare an emergency and prompted evacuation orders for tens of thousands residents is likely to fail. Lee Zeldin, the administrator of the EPA, told CNN’s “State of the Union” program on Sunday that the “most likely scenario” is a “low-volume release” of the tank, where officials will be able to “monitor, neutralize, and contain the threat.” “The Orange County Fire Authority is working to keep the temperature of the tank down. That is very important,” he said on CNN, referring to the fire department in the Southern California county. He said keeping the temperature under 85 degrees F is key. But, as Jack Phillips reports for The Epoch Times, Zeldin warned: “We’re being told that the tank will fail, but there are different scenarios as to what that means, the most catastrophic scenario being an explosion that results in other tanks to explode. That’s the reason why you see such a big …
