DR Congo set up last-32 meeting with England after comeback win over Uzbekistan

Yoane Wissa scored twice as DR Congo beat Uzbekistan 3-1 and qualified for the last 32 of the World Cup for the first time in their history. They will meet England after registering their ever World Cup win.

Eldor Shomurodov’s lob over Lionel Mpasi gave the Uzbeks a perfect start in Atlanta. But the Newcastle striker Wissa levelled from the penalty spot before Fiston Mayele’s goal sent the mainly Congolese crowd into a frenzy.

Colombia take top spot over Portugal after draw in battle of World Cup heavyweights

While wonderful and typical theatre, it was plainly ridiculous. “I’m back!” roared Cristiano Ronaldo, as if playing a key part in Portugal’s dismissal of Uzbekistan was in any way significant. Ronaldo toiled against DR Congo and was comfortably kept quiet here by Colombia. The stars have turned up at this World Cup. Ronaldo, though, still has a way to go if seeking to prove his omnipresence at this tournament will not hinder Portuguese hopes of glory.

Nobody other than Father Time has chased down Ronaldo. An alternative quote, from Trainspotting, feels more apposite than what the 41-year-old bawled into a camera as Uzbekistan were swatted aside. “Well, at one time, you’ve got it, then you lose it, and it’s gone for ever,” observed Sick Boy in an Edinburgh park. Add Ronaldo to a list that, as per the film scene, includes David Bowie, Lou Reed, Charlie Nicholas and Malcolm McLaren. Eclectic company. Ronaldo actually wants to be in the same discussion as Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland. He once was. Now? It is a tricky point to enforce.

Ukraine war briefing: Ballistic missile attack in Kyiv forces residents into shelters

Latest attack follows civilian deaths on both sides of Russia-Ukraine border on Saturday. What we know on day 1,585

A ballistic missile attack was under way in Kyiv early Sunday, with the city’s mayor warning residents to remain in shelters. “Air defence forces are operating in the capital. Remain in shelters!”, the capital’s mayor Vitali Klitschko said on Telegram. Explosions and several flashes in the sky have been reported.

The attack follows civilian deaths on both sides of the ​Russia-Ukraine border on Saturday. Russian strikes in Dnipropetrovsk in central-eastern Ukraine and the northern Sumy region killed two people, while Ukraine launched attacks on Volgograd and Belgorod in Russia’s southwest, and Horlivka, in the Donetsk region of Ukraine, which is controlled by Moscow. Three people were killed in the attacks, regional authorities said.

In the Russian border region of Bryansk, ⁠a Ukrainian drone strike on Saturday killed two people in their car in a village near the border, ⁠the region’s acting governor Yegor Kovalchuk said on Telegram. Russia’s defence ​ministry, quoted by Russian ‌news agencies, said ‌124 Ukrainian drones had been downed over Russian regions over ‌a period extending from 8 am to 8pm.

More than 40 drone strikes and artillery fire had killed one person and injured one near Nikopol, according to the governor of the ​southeastern Dnipropetrovsk region in Ukraine, Oleksandr Ganzha. The town, lying ⁠on the opposite bank of the Dnipro River from ​the ​Russian-held Zaporizhzhia nuclear power ​plant, is a frequent Russian target.

Serbian president Aleksandar Vucic said on Saturday he would resign within weeks and the country would hold early presidential and parliamentary elections, after 18 months of anti-government protests about government corruption and media censorship. Serbia is a candidate to join the European Union but it is under pressure from the West to align with EU sanctions on Russia, a step Belgrade has so far declined to take. It must also improve its rule of law, including conditions for fair elections, and root out corruption and organised crime.

Russian president Vladimir Putin and Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko held talks on Friday, according to the Kremlin, and discussions were expected to have focused on the war in Ukraine. Meeting at Putin’s Valdai residence in northwestern Russia, the two leaders addressed ​trade and economic cooperation, the implementation of joint projects and issues of ‌regional security. The meeting follows a warning earlier this month from Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Lukashenko to remove equipment from Belarus used by Russia in its attacks on Ukraine.

Jude Bellingham bends another day to his will after Panama stifle England | Barney Ronay

A joyless England display, football’s equivalent of assembling a wardrobe, was rescued by the No 10

In the half-time break at a rain-fogged New York New Jersey Stadium, with England still living out the same painful never-ending 0-0 draw, a lone saxophonist could be heard playing a series of noodling riffs on the deserted concourse outside.

So it’s come to this. Even the New York dinner jazz scene is having a pop now. And sometimes it really does feel as if the world is trying to tell you something. England had been footballing toothache to that point, awkward, rigid, unable to think or move freely, to find combinations to fit the patterns in front of them.

‘We will step up’: Thomas Tuchel feels England will thrive in World Cup knockouts

  • ‘The bigger the games get, the bigger we will get,’ he says

  • Jarell Quansah hopes to be fit for last 32 after ankle sprain

Thomas Tuchel believes England can only get better after sealing top spot in Group L and has backed his side to “step up” for the knockout stages of the World Cup.

After the goalless draw against Ghana, England struggled to break down Panama and began the second half behind Croatia in the standings. But goals from Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane – whose header made him England’s highest World Cup scorer – secured a 2-0 win and ensured they will travel to Atlanta for a last-32 tie against the Democratic Republic of the Congo on Wednesday.

How a Seemingly Harmless Image Can Jailbreak Vision-Language AI Models

Slashdot reader BrianFagioli writes: Florida International University researchers have developed a technique called JaiLIP (Jailbreaking with Loss-guided Image Perturbation) that uses subtle image modifications to bypass AI safety guardrails. Unlike traditional jailbreaks that rely on carefully crafted prompts, the attack works through images that appear normal to human viewers. The researchers tested the technique against BLIP-2, a multimodal AI model, and found that manipulated images significantly increased the likelihood of harmful responses. According to the study, the approach outperformed previous image-based jailbreak methods and nearly doubled the number of unsafe outputs generated during testing. The findings highlight a potential security risk for businesses deploying AI systems that process both images and text. While most discussions about AI safety focus on prompts, the research suggests that seemingly harmless images may also serve as an attack vector.

France's Heat This Week Was Worse Than a Dire Scenario Imagined For 2050

There's a deadly, record-breaking heat wave spreading east across Europe, reports the Washington Post — and it's even worse than a dire earlier forecast:

The forecast was recorded in 2014 as part of a campaign coordinated by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) that invited about 60 presenters worldwide to imagine a weather report from the year 2050. In one clip, Ãvelyne Dhéliat from French television network TF1 presented a hypothetical scenario of high temperatures 36 years into the future — during a heat wave in a warmer climate in 2050... One of the maps that Dhéliat shared was lit up in shades of orange, filled with temperature predictions of 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit), reaching as high as 43 degrees Celsius (109.4 degrees Fahrenheit).
But it turns out, it didn't take 36 years for those imagined temperatures to be reached — and even exceeded. The heat on Wednesday alone, when the temperature soared as high as 112.3 degrees Fahrenheit (44.3 degrees Celsius), exceeded the 2050 projections in 19 out of 34 locations across mainland France — far sooner than some may have expected. Some places surpassed those hypothetical future temperatures by more than 20 degrees Fahrenheit. It's part of a dramatic shift in heat wave frequency across the country. Half of the heat waves observed since 1947 have occurred since 2010. "By 2100, heat waves could last up to two months continuously," the country's weather agency, Météo-France, said this week.

It was hotter in France on Wednesday than in Las Vegas and Phoenix and just two degrees Fahrenheit shy of what was observed in Death Valley, California. An estimated less than one percent of the planet was hotter than France's hottest place... [T]he heat dome, which will linger into early next week, is only part of the story. This type of extreme heat is becoming more common as the planet warms, especially in Europe.
Climate scientist Robert Rohde said in a post explaining the heat wave's causes that France and Western Europe should expect many more heat waves like this over the coming decades. "This isn't a fluke, but simply part of the new normal," he said.

Beware the Drowning Man

As the tide turns against Putin, his temptation will be to escalate both at home and abroad. The coming months will likely be dangerous outside and inside Russia as Putin tries desperately to stay afloat.

And the mobile networks are unreachable atm. But we have electricity and fiber internet so I'll manage.
Time to again open all doors and windows and let the 'cool" outside replace the 30 something from the bedroom.

The garden is full of torn off branches, and our cat turned up after the Armageddon, completely dry, I on the other hand soaked cause I had been looking for her.
And she won't show me her secret hideout.

Veel meldingen van wateroverlast in Amsterdam

AMSTERDAM (ANP) - In Amsterdam zorgt het noodweer voor veel wateroverlast. De veiligheidsregio vraagt mensen de hulpdiensten alleen nog te bellen bij direct gevaar, om zo de meldkamer niet te overbelasten.

Door de aanhoudende regen komen er tientallen meldingen binnen. De veiligheidsregio vreest dat de meldkamer daardoor onvoldoende beschikbaar wordt voor spoedeisende gevallen en doet het verzoek alleen nog te bellen bij gevaarlijke situaties, zoals die waarbij water en elektriciteit zijn betrokken.

Marrit Steenbergen verbetert wereldrecord 100 meter vrije slag. ‘Ik vroeg me af of het wel echt was’

Het is voor het eerst sinds het jaar 2000 dat het record in handen is van een Nederlandse. Toen zwom Inge de Bruin de snelste tijd op de afstand. In totaal hebben nu vier Nederlandse vrouwen het record in handen gehad.
