US President Donald Trump has ordered the United States to leave dozens of international organisations. Many of these bodies focus on climate change and environmental protection. Nearly half of the 66 affected organisations are linked to the United Nations. The list includes the Framework Convention on Climate Change, which forms the foundation of global climate cooperation. The decision also affects organisations working on development, gender equality, and conflict prevention. The administration has repeatedly criticised these areas as ideological or globalist. The White House said the organisations no longer serve American interests and promote hostile or ineffective agendas. White House Says…

Calls from abroad, including from Dubai, failed to connect — a move…
People who stop using weight-loss injections regain all the weight they lost in under two years, according to a major new analysis. The study, led by researchers at the University of Oxford and published in the BMJ, reviewed 37 studies involving more than 9,300 participants using GLP-1 agonist medications.

Researchers found that after stopping treatment, participants regained weight at an average rate of 0.4kg per month, returning to their original weight within about 1.7 years. On average, people lost 8.3kg while on medication but regained 4.8kg within…
Federal guidance mixes classic advice with new priorities US officials released updated dietary guidelines on Wednesday, combining long-standing nutrition recommendations with new emphasis.

The White House has said the use of the US military remains an option as President Donald Trump renews his push to bring Greenland under American control, arguing that the vast Arctic island is critical to US national security. Trump first floated the idea of purchasing Greenland during his initial term in office, but the proposal has returned to the spotlight following a recent US military operation overseas and growing concern in Washington over Russian and Chinese activity in the Arctic. Trump Frames Greenland as a Security Priority White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said President Trump sees control of…
Nottingham Forest inflicted further misery on West Ham United with a late 2-1 comeback win at the London Stadium. West Ham took the lead through a Tomas Soucek effort but failed to build control, while a disallowed goal early in the second half proved a turning point.

With the home side chasing a winner, a clumsy challenge by Alphonse Areola on Morgan Gibbs-White led to a VAR review and a decisive penalty in the 89th minute. Gibbs-White converted calmly to seal…
