AIRPORT CHAOS Cause of ‘radar failure’ which hit multiple major airports and grounded 150 flights revealed as chaos continues for days.

Here’s the refined version with the hyphens removed:

A major radar failure caused widespread flight disruptions across the UK, affecting key airports including London, Manchester, and Birmingham. Over 150 flights were cancelled after a system outage hit the air traffic control (ATC) network managed by NATS. The outage halted both takeoffs and landings on Thursday, leaving thousands of passengers stranded.

Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander confirmed there was no malicious activity involved. The technical glitch, which took 20 minutes to fix, had lingering effects on flight schedules. Sources have now revealed the disruption was caused by a genuine “software error” within the radar systems. Fortunately, the backup systems performed as expected and prevented a repeat of the issue.

Despite the restoration of services, several flights including at least 16 at Heathrow remain cancelled as ATC continues to operate on its backup systems. Alexander reassured the public that she’s in close contact with NATS leadership and further investigations into the technical failure are ongoing.

A 76-year-old man has been arrested after eight children fell ill at a summer camp in Stathern, Leicestershire, prompting an investigation into suspected poisoning. The incident, reported by a third party on July 27, led to a swift emergency response as police and paramedics arrived on the scene.

TRAVEL HAVOC Brits face days of travel chaos after all flights grounded at UK airports – as mystery grows over cause of ‘tech glitch’

Holidaymakers across the UK are facing prolonged travel disruptions after a major technical glitch grounded flights nationwide. The outage, which affected the National Air Traffic Services (Nats) air traffic control system, led to the cancellation of over 150 flights and forced several airports to suspend takeoffs and landings. Passengers were left stranded, with many forced to sleep on airport floors.

The issue, traced to a radar failure at Nats' Swanwick control centre in Hampshire, caused the air traffic control system to shut down for approximately 20 minutes. During this time, no new flights were allowed to enter UK airspace. Despite the short duration of the glitch, the cascading effect has left airlines scrambling to recover, with delays and cancellations expected to continue for several days.

London Heathrow Airport bore the brunt of the disruption, with 46 flights cancelled on the first day and additional cancellations continuing into the next morning. The incident has prompted concerns from airlines and travelers alike, questioning how a single system failure could bring the UK’s entire airspace to a standstill.

FURY Fresh migrant hotel protest erupts after ‘secret plot to move asylum seekers into £250k flats’

Plans to relocate 35 asylum seekers into newly developed £250,000 flats in Waterlooville, Hampshire, have sparked major backlash among locals. The Home Office proposal to use the recently converted Waterloo House apartments as migrant housing has prompted protests and fierce criticism from residents and politicians alike.

More than 1,000 people gathered outside the 19-flat development to express their opposition, with many citing a struggling local economy, rising homelessness, long housing waiting lists, and unemployment as reasons for their anger. Some protesters described the plan as an "insult," claiming it prioritizes migrants over local needs.

Suella Braverman MP condemned the move as "utterly inappropriate" and launched a petition against it, which has gathered over 9,000 signatures. As discussions between the council and the Home Office continue, tensions remain high in the town over what many view as a secretive and unfair housing decision.

Kamala Harris announces she will not be running for governor of California in 2026.

Former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has officially announced she will not be running for Governor of California in the 2026 election. In a statement released Wednesday, Harris said the decision came after "deep reflection" and affirmed her commitment to continue advocating for the American people, even without holding public office.

Speculation about Harris’s political future has swirled since her 2024 presidential defeat to Donald Trump. Many anticipated a gubernatorial run as her next move, especially after stepping into the presidential race mid-campaign when Joe Biden dropped out. Harris has largely stayed out of the spotlight since then.

Although she ruled out the California governor's race, Harris did not close the door on another run for the presidency. Her statement left open the possibility of a future national campaign, suggesting she is still weighing her options for continuing in public service.

8.8-magnitude quake sends small tsunami into coasts of Russia, Japan and Alaska.

A powerful 8.8-magnitude earthquake has struck Russia’s far east, one of the strongest quakes ever recorded. The epicenter was near the Kamchatka Peninsula, where tsunami waves caused flooding and forced residents to flee inland. The quake triggered tsunami alerts across the Pacific, including in Japan, Alaska, Hawaii, North and Central America, and the Pacific Islands down to New Zealand.

Tsunami waves measuring up to 13 feet were reported in Kamchatka, 2 feet in northern Japan, and over a foot in Alaska’s Aleutian Islands. Though most areas have not reported significant damage so far, authorities continue to urge people to remain on alert and move to higher ground. In places like Honolulu, traffic congestion mounted as people rushed away from coastal areas.

Experts warn that the threat is not over, as tsunamis can arrive in multiple powerful waves over many hours. Dave Snider from the U.S. National Tsunami Warning Centre emphasized that a tsunami is not a single event but a prolonged series of fast-moving, potentially destructive waves that can span across oceans at the speed of a jet aircraft.

British Transport Police confirmed that Robinson, 42, boarded a plane out of the country in the early hours of Tuesday, prompting speculation he may have fled amid the investigation. The witness, who filmed the aftermath, stated Robinson shouted, “Come at me then,” before delivering the blow that left the man motionless.

Trump’s picks for FBI leadership have ‘no idea what they’re doing’ and are ‘playing dress up,’ former staffer says.

Former FBI agent Michael Feinberg has criticized Donald Trump’s appointments to lead the FBI, claiming they “have no idea what they’re doing” and are “playing dress up.” Feinberg, who served as an assistant special agent in Norfolk, Virginia, resigned after 15 years when the agency questioned his friendship with ex-agent Peter Strzok, a known Trump critic.

Feinberg was informed his promotion had been revoked and that he might be demoted or forced to take a polygraph test due to his connection with Strzok. Rather than face disciplinary action, he chose to resign. Strzok had been fired during Trump’s first term for private texts criticizing the former president and his role in the Russia election interference probe.

In his resignation letter, Feinberg expressed deep devotion to the U.S. and its Constitution, lamenting that he could no longer serve in his role. He spoke out publicly after former colleagues encouraged him to do so, fearing they too could face retaliation under the current leadership climate.

'VILE LIE' Showjumper accuses underage girl of faking messages about ‘th*****me he had with her and 26-year-old horse rider’

Guy Simmonds, a 37-year-old showjumper, and Lauren Jarvis, 26, are currently on trial at Cardiff Crown Court, accused of s*xually assaulting an underage girl. Simmonds allegedly targeted the girl, who was under 16, referring to himself as "daddy" in messages and abusing her when his girlfriend was absent. The court heard that in January 2024, Simmonds messaged Jarvis to arrange a th*****me at her home, subsequently texting the girl to inform her of the plan with the instruction: "You will both do what daddy says."

The victim testified that Simmonds coerced her and Jarvis into s*xual acts with each other before he had s*x with both of them. Following the alleged incident, Simmonds reportedly messaged Jarvis, stating, "You both loved that haha." However, during the court proceedings, Simmonds claimed the girl fabricated the entire encounter.

Simmonds asserted that the girl lied about the alleged th*****me and created counterfeit WhatsApp conversations because he had rejected her. He suggested to the jurors that she might have used a "pranking" app to generate the messages or even messaged herself from another device while impersonating him, emphatically stating, "I believe the messages to be fake."

US-UK trade pact a ‘great deal for everybody’, says Trump.

Donald Trump celebrated the newly sealed US-UK trade agreement during the launch of his new golf course in Aberdeenshire, calling it a “great deal for everybody.” The former US president praised Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and others involved, noting the deal had been 12 years in the making and crediting their efforts for finally getting it across the line.

At the opening ceremony, Trump expressed admiration for both Sir Keir and Scottish First Minister John Swinney, calling the latter “a really special guy” with a deep love for golf and Scotland. Trump also described Starmer as “very gracious,” despite their political differences, and commended his role in finalizing the long-awaited trade pact.

During a press conference, Trump offered Starmer political advice, suggesting that lowering taxes and curbing illegal immigration would help him compete with Reform UK and Nigel Farage. “Politics is pretty simple,” Trump said, implying that decisive actions could strengthen the Prime Minister's position.

Dozens dead after flooding and landslides near Beijing.

Heavy rainfall has led to devastating flooding and landslides around Beijing, Hebei, and Tianjin, resulting in at least 38 deaths. Torrential rains swept away vehicles, destroyed roads, and disrupted power and communication lines across the region. Footage from state media shows muddy water surging into homes, with emergency crews rescuing injured residents and navigating severely damaged infrastructure.

Beijing’s Miyun district has been particularly hard-hit, with over 54 cm of rainfall recorded in some areas. Premier Li Qiang confirmed “serious casualties” in Miyun and urged for intensified rescue operations. The storm has left more than 130 villages in Beijing without power and damaged over 30 road segments, compounding the challenges facing emergency services.

Authorities have evacuated over 80,000 residents in Beijing alone, including 17,000 from Miyun. The flood risk remains high, and further weather-related disruptions are expected. Rescue teams are continuing to search for survivors and provide aid in the affected regions.
