US industrial output declines in June for second straight month
WASHINGTON: US industrial production fell by more than analysts expected last month, the Federal Reserve said Tuesday, with a sharp contraction in output seen in consumer durables like automotive products and carpeting.

Cheers and sneers as Bulgaria unveils EU’s highest flagpole
A soaring mast in the mountains of southern Bulgaria has made the EU’s poorest country the home of the bloc’s highest flagpole, filling some with pride and drawing scorn from others.

‘Hanging tough’: Ukraine fights Russian advance
LYMAN FRONT, Ukraine: The towers of smoke rising over the verdant valley betray positions the Russians are pounding in their new thrust into eastern Ukraine. It instills far less fear in soldier Admin than a similar push into the Ukrainian town of Lyman just over a year ago. “The last month has been like one long day for us,” the 23-year-old said at a secret location near the site of Russia’s main advance of the past few weeks of war. “In...

But prosecuting lawyer Peter Wright told Manchester Crown Court in north west England...

The ‘kidneys of Kolkata’: Indian wetlands under threat
Wetlands just outside India’s Kolkata have for generations provided tons of food daily and thousands of jobs as they filter sewage through fish ponds—but rapid urbanisation is threatening the ecosystem.
