Attack on business apparently storing ‘explosive objects’ sparks huge fire, damaging residential buildings

At least 37 people have been killed after a Russian drone struck a warehouse near Kyiv’s western suburbs which appears to have been storing “explosive objects”.

The attack damaged at least 50 residential buildings, including a care home for elderly and disabled people, and sparked a huge fire and explosions in the Bucha district of the Ukrainian capital. The regional governor, Tymur Tkachenko, said a further 42 people, including four children, had been injured after the Russian drone strike.

Grammy award-winning American artist selected as 13th person to submit written work to Oslo-based project

Anderson joins Margaret Atwood, Han Kang, Ocean Vuong and other prominent authors who have written secret manuscripts, which have been locked away until 2114.

Ignore Iran, the Epstein files, and your wallet – not to mention Trump’s plummeting approval ratings

Don’t mention the war! Or the economy, for that matter. Or the Epstein files. Or Natalie Harp. Or “affordability”, which, as Donald Trump recently said at a rally, is a word that was “never used” by the media before he took office. Best not to talk about anything that affects ordinary people or embarrasses the president, really. Instead, let’s all rejoice in Trump’s latest triumph: renaming Lake Ontario, which is shared by Canada and the US, as Lake America.

On Thursday, Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to America-fy the lake’s name on US maps and documents, which is an excellent use of time and resources. I suppose we can at least be thankful that the president, who is trying to slap his own name on everything from airports to the Kennedy Center, didn’t decree that the body of water be called Lake Trump.

Arwa Mahdawi is a Guardian columnist

​De 24-jarige Emma raapte afgelopen zondag eindelijk de moed bij elkaar om haar scharrel te vragen, ‘wat ze nu eigenlijk zijn’. In plaats van wat opheldering over hun relatie, belandde ze in een drie uur durende existentiële filosofische discussie over de vraag: wat zijn we?

Haar scharrel Pip (23) schoof wat ongemakkelijk op en neer terwijl ze een paar keer de vraag ‘wat zijn we?’ mompelde. “Goede vraag”, zei ze tot slot terwijl ze Emma serieus aankeek. “Dan moeten we eerst vaststellen wat je bedoelt met ‘zijn’. Wat is de mens? Sartre zou zeggen dat we geen vaststaande essentie hebben en dat we onszelf pas na ons bestaan, handelend kunnen definiëren."

Toen Emma voorzichtig nog eens probeerde ‘ja maar wat zijn wíj́ dan?’, pakte Pip een boek van Foucault erbij. “Eens kijken wat hij hierover zegt.”
