Russian plans show Moscow wants to keep fighting in Ukraine at least through 2026 and grab more land in the east and south. It describes how Russia is counting on heavy troop mobilization, big losses each year, and a drop in Western military aid to Ukraine. The plan also includes using fake peace talks to stall while Russian forces slowly advance and dig in on occupied territory. Experts warn this shows Russia is preparing for a long, grinding war rather than a quick deal or real peace.

Airport delays are getting worse because TSA workers are not being fully paid during the government shutdown. The shutdown started in mid-February when funding ran out for the Department of Homeland Security. Many TSA employees missed their first full paycheck and some are struggling to keep working. Airport officials warn that wait times could get longer as staffing problems grow. If the shutdown continues, some airports might have to close temporarily.

For 20 days, since the US and Israel began their bombing of Iran, the Gulf states have faced a relentless barrage of thousands of Iranian drones and missiles fired at their airports, hotels, ports, military bases, financial districts, data centres and apartment blocks. Though it has represented an unfathomable attack on their sovereignty, security and economy in Dubai, shattering an economically crucial illusion of safety and glamour Gulf countries have so far only responded defensively, spending billions on interceptors that have managed to shoot down about 90% of Iran’s ballistics.

Scientists are studying Asgard archaea, a group of microbes thought to be our closest microbial relatives, to understand how complex life on Earth first evolved. New DNA analysis shows that some Asgard microbes live in shallow coastal sediments and can tolerate or use oxygen, unlike earlier findings that placed them only in oxygen-poor deep-sea vents. These microbes have proteins and metabolic pathways similar to those of eukaryotes (organisms with nuclei and mitochondria), suggesting they may have already been using oxygen before merging with bacteria to form the first complex cells. The research supports the idea that eukaryotic life originated in oxygen-rich coastal environments, though scientists still need lab experiments to confirm how ancient Asgards actually used oxygen.
