Security came to inspect aircraft in Newark after report of Bluetooth device with a ‘certain four-letter word’
A United Airlines plane bound for Spain from Newark Liberty international airport turned around mid-flight on Saturday due to a possible security threat.
That came one day after another United Airlines flight bound for Minneapolis from Chicago was diverted to Madison, Wisconsin, on Friday because an unruly passenger evidently tried to breach the cockpit.

Family visitation at the Delaney Hall immigration detention center is being restored to at least part of the facility, New Jersey’s governor and US homeland security officials confirmed on Sunday morning, after a week during which heated demonstrations at the site were met with aggressive policing tactics.
Meanwhile, families of detained immigrants grappled with conflicting information about exactly whom among them would get visitation after the announcement from governor Mikie Sherrill and the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS). And local officials by Sunday had also indefinitely imposed an overnight curfew beginning at 9pm for a blocked-off area including Delaney Hall.

Paris est mythique. There was nothing understated, no obvious shades of faux humilité about the headline in L’Équipe after Paris Saint-Germain had been re-enthroned as Champions League winners on Saturday night. Mythical. Storied. Ultimate. Yeah. But are they, though?
In fairness it would be disappointingly un-Parisian not to consider your champion team the champions of all champions in the moment of victory. Give the people what they want. Play the hits. Nobody needs a polite Parisian waiter. Nobody wants to see an unstylish Parisian estate agent who has taken absolutely no care of his hair, or a Parisian bistro that doesn’t think it’s the VIP boarding lounge for the last arc leaving planet Earth.

Rond het middaguur trokken duizenden mensen door de straten van Manhattan, zwaaiend met Israëlische vlaggen en blauw-witte ballonnen. De organisatie en de politie hadden 40.000 deelnemers verwacht, maar dat waren er "aanzienlijk minder", meldde The New York Times.
De parade wordt sinds 1964 gehouden uit solidariteit met Israël. New York herbergt zo'n 1 miljoen Joodse inwoners, de grootste stedelijke Joodse bevolking buiten Israël.
Mamdani, de eerste moslimburgemeester van New York, stelt dat Israël genocide pleegt in Gaza en al decennia stelselmatig de rechten van Palestijnen schendt. "Tijdens de verkiezingscampagne heb ik al gezegd dat ik de parade niet zou bijwonen", zei hij eerder deze week. "En ik heb mijn opvattingen over de Israëlische regering overduidelijk gemaakt."
