Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said he hopes not to wait too long for the results of an Irish government investigation into alumina exports to Russia thought to be feeding the Kremlin’s war machine.

“Unfortunately there are companies in Europe that are owned or effectively controlled by Russia and its sanctioned oligarchs. They keep supplying the aggressor with essential materials even now.”

‘There’s not a lot of Black stories made by Black creatives in theater’: inside Kwame Kwei-Armah’s new TLC musical

CrazySexyCool, the celebrated playwright’s new show in DC, is a vibrant love letter to the hits and sisterhood of the R&B trio

CrazySexyCool, an ambitious new musical about the visionary 90s trio TLC at Arena Stage in Washington DC, aspires to make good on its title and then some. Crammed with platinum sing-alongs and tabloid-chronicled plot twists, it follows the legendary girl group – Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas and Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins – through more than a decade of success and struggle, resulting in a teeming production that includes piles of era-defining R&B hits, deep racks of vintage Cross Colours T-shirts and a claw-foot bathtub filled with Nikes set aflame. At its most outrageous, CrazySexyCool seems to be testing the tensile strength of the jukebox musical itself.

Then again, this is TLC. The truth was outrageous. And that makes for a busy, dizzying, detail-minded show. Throughout the various dramas unfolding onstage, the musical’s three leads – Holli’ Gabrielle Conway at T-Boz, Jade Milan as Left Eye, Stoney B Woods as Chilli – exude a poise that feels as cool and congenial as the real TLC did when they ruled the radio three decades ago. At a weeknight performance of CrazySexyCool in late June, audience members seemed as if they’d been reunited with old friends, singing, laughing, shouting affirmations and dancing in their seats.

Barcelona distribui pulseiras 'termômetro' em meio a onde calor que já fez 1.000 mortos

Homem se refresnca com ventilador portátil em Barcelona, Espanha, em meio a onde de calor Nacho Doce / Reuters A prefeitura de Barcelona, na Espanha, começou a distribuir pulseiras para medir a tempeatura corporal a trabalhadores que atuam nas ruas para prevenir insolação e outros problemas provocados pelo calor extremo. A iniciativa acontece em meio às ondas de calor que atingem o país, responsáveis por mais de mil mortes apenas em junho. Ao todo, cerca de 1.400 dispositivos foram entregues a profissionais que trabalham ao ar livre, como varredores de rua, jardineiros, equipes de iluminação pública e funcionários da coleta de lixo. ✅ Siga o canal de notícias internacionais do g1 no WhatsApp As pulseiras monitoram a temperatura corporal do usuário em tempo real. Se identificarem sinais de superaquecimento, emitem um alerta sonoro e vibram, indicando que o trabalhador deve interromper imediatamente a atividade e procurar um local para se refrescar. Segundo Pep Llimona, coordenador de prevenção do serviço municipal de parques e jardins, a medida faz parte da estratégia da cidade para enfrentar os efeitos das mudanças climáticas, que vêm tornando as ondas de calor mais frequentes e intensas. A preocupação não é por acaso. Nos últimos anos, trabalhadores morreram durante jornadas sob temperaturas elevadas em diferentes regiões da Espanha, o que levou governos e empresas a rever protocolos de segurança e horários de trabalho.

A prefeitura abriu uma investigação sobre o caso, mas afirmou nesta quinta-feira (2) que não há indícios de que a morte tenha sido causada por insolação. Llimona disse que o projeto das pulseiras já estava sendo desenvolvido antes da morte da trabalhadora, mas reconheceu que o episódio acelerou a implantação da medida. "É verdade que isso fez o projeto avançar mais rapidamente e nos levou a refletir ainda mais sobre o tema", disse. A Espanha atravessa um dos períodos mais quentes de sua história recente. Segundo a agência meteorológica do país, junho foi o segundo mês mais quente já registrado, e uma nova onda de calor deve atingir o território espanhol a partir deste fim de semana. "Como o calor está cada vez mais intenso, precisamos redobrar os cuidados durante o trabalho", afirmou a supervisora Ester Jimenez. "Sou responsável por distribuir as tarefas da equipe e tenho medo de que alguém sofra uma insolação. Com temperaturas assim, o futuro é preocupante", declarou.

Vatican excommunicates ultraconservative breakaway bishops in first crisis for Pope

The Vatican excommunicated six bishops from the ultraconservative Society of St Pius X , while warning that any lay believers who "formally adhere" to the breakaway Catholic group would suffer the same fate. The Vatican decree comes a day after the traditionalist group consecrated four new bishops, openly defying a plea from Pope Leo XIV to desist and exacerbating a rift dating from 1988 when the group earlier consecrated four bishops. FRANCE 24's Seema Gupta tells us more about this story.

At 4.38pm on 28 June Donald Trump dropped a Truth. Nothing unusual in that. Trump’s Truth Social feed is relentless and ever-giving.

That same afternoon he also Truthed at 3.58pm, 3.59pm, and twice at 7.42pm, all in the same instantly recognisable, weirdly cartoonish tone, as if a giant maize-based salted snack from a jaunty 1970s TV advert has been pumped full of voodoo and vitamins and propped up behind a lectern to explain geopolitics to the world, but only in the kind of words you might use while arguing with your nine-year-old sister.
