A U.S. court has dismissed Donald Trump’s high-profile defamation lawsuit against a major newspaper over a controversial report linking him to Jeffrey Epstein. The judge ruled that the case failed to meet the strict “actual malice” standard required in defamation claims involving public figures. 

A routine flight turned into a devastating tragedy in southern Brazil after a small aircraft crashed during its final approach, killing all four people onboard. The incident unfolded near Capão da Canoa in Rio Grande do Sul, when the aircraft, identified as a Piper Malibu, encountered trouble just moments before landing. According to initial reports, the plane struck a pole near the edge of the runway while descending, before veering off course and crashing into a restaurant located close to the airport perimeter. The impact triggered a massive fire, with thick plumes of smoke engulfing the crash site within minutes. WATCH
