A Russian National Guard officer has killed four fellow servicemen at a military base in the southern Russian region of Chechnya. The shooter was subsequently gunned down.

"A first lieutenant of the Russian National Guard has fatally wounded four of his fellow officers," the National Guard's press service told the Russian media, adding that the incident took place about 4:00pm local time (1:00pm GMT).

A military prosecutor's office has launched an inquiry into the incident. There was no information immediately available about the shooter's motive.

A similar incident took place in late September in Russia's Far East. At that time, a Dagestan-born soldier killed three fellow servicemen with an automatic rifle, attempted to flee and was later shot down by an counter-terrorism unit.

The defense ministry said that the September shooting incident could have been a result of the serviceman suffering a nervous breakdown.

Psychopath: Man who promised women lavish lifestyle forced them into prostitution using fear and intimidation while keeping them captive

Robert Atlee Miner V's online advertisements promised women the lure of relocating to "beautiful, sunny" South Florida and the opportunity to earn up to a $1,000 a day working as dancers and escorts. He promised them cars and places to live.

But instead, the 27-year-old man used fear and intimidation to force the women to work as prostitutes in various motels - some of them in Palm Beach County - and keep all of the money for himself, authorities alleged in arresting him Sunday on charges of human trafficking, a crime some have called modern-day slavery.

Miner was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail on charges that include human trafficking, armed sexual battery and money laundering, as well as multiple charges related to running a prostitution business. Judge Caroline Shepherd on Monday delayed Miner's first-appearance hearing on the charges until Tuesday so that he can have an attorney present.

Bowe Bergdahl, the Army deserter who walked off his base in Afghanistan, is whining that the US treated him worse than the Taliban.

The 31-year-old sergeant told British TV journalist Sean Langan in an interview reported in the Sunday Times of London: "At least the Taliban were honest enough to say, 'I'm the guy who's gonna cut your throat.' "

That got him less upset than the "administrative duties" the Army assigned him while awaiting trial, he said.

"Here, it could be the guy I pass in the corridor who's going to sign the paper that sends me away for life,'' he said. "We may as well go back to kangaroo courts and lynch mobs."

Former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly dismissed as "lies and smear" the details in a New York Times report saying 21st Century Fox had signed O'Reilly to a contract extension months after O'Reilly reached a $32 million sexual harassment settlement with longtime network analyst Lis Wiehl.

The settlement, revealed by the Times in an article Saturday, was one of several such deals involving O'Reilly. The controversial commentator was re-upped in February only to be dismissed by Fox in April after the Times reported on some of them.

O'Reilly was combative and unapologetic on Twitter.

"My investigative team has done a superb job in exposing the lies and smear," O'Reilly tweeted late Saturday. "I will speak with you on Monday."

Thousands of people poured into the streets of the Maltese capital, Valletta, on Sunday to voice their indignation over the death of a prominent investigative journalist, known for exposing state corruption, who was killed by a car bomb last week.

The government on Saturday announced a €1 million reward for information which can help to trace the suspects in the death of Daphne Caruana Galizia, Malta's best known investigative journalist and the author of a hugely popular blog, which she used to shed light on shady dealings of high-ranking officials, including the country's prime minster, and, in particular, their alleged offshore dealings unveiled in the Panama Papers scandal.

The demonstrators were marching through the streets, carrying banners that quoted the last words the journalist ever wrote in her blog: "There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate."

Moms-to-be cannot be called a "pregnant woman" but 'people' - UK to UN

A mom-to-be cannot be called a "pregnant woman" - she is a "pregnant person," the UK government reportedly said in an amendment to a UN treaty. The changes, which claim to consider trans parents' rights, have triggered a backlash.

The UK has objected to use of the term "pregnant woman," as it may "exclude transgender people who have given birth,"the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) said, adding that the correct term should be "pregnant people," the Times reported on Sunday.

"We requested that the UN human rights committee made it clear that the same right [to life for pregnant women] extends to pregnant transgender people," the FCO said.

The UK government officially submitted the proposed amendments to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights from 1976, the Times added. The text of the UN document says that "sentence of death shall not be imposed for crimes committed by persons... shall not be carried out on pregnant women."

Doctors have warned that extremely rare conjoined twins born in the Gaza Strip must leave the blockaded enclave for medical treatment or face certain death.

The twin baby girls, who were born on Sunday, share a leg but have separate hearts and lungs. Palestinian news site Al Quds reports that the twins were delivered by caesarean section in Gaza's Al Shifa Hospital.

Allam Abu Hamda, the head of the neonatal unit at the hospital, told AFP the twins' condition "cannot be dealt with in the Gaza Strip, so we hope they will be transferred abroad for a separation."

The exposed nightmare in Ukraine-controlled Severodonetsk shocked the inhabitants of Donbass. The fears of people aren't unfounded: the facts emerging on the surface about the events in UAF-controlled territory is only a small fragment of the criminal canvas that is the present Ukrainian reality.

As was reported, the Kiev Armed Forces, together with the Ukrainian authorities of Severodonetsk, organized a children's brothel in the city's boarding school. The so-called administration of the Severodonetsk general education boarding school for orphaned children forces minor pupils on both genders to perform sexual acts with customer-pedophiles from among the military personnel, militants of national battalions, representatives of the occupational administration, and even ... Ukrainian law enforcement bodies ... The police of the LPR stated that at the disposal of employees of Lugansk justice are documents about concrete crimes and their participants.

European Values Think Tank calls itself an NGO "defending liberal democracy" - it clearly disdains by attempting to discredit RT and guests appearing on the network it called "useful idiots (to a) hostile foreign power." Founded in 2005, its funded by Washington, Britain, other EU countries, the European Parliament, European Commission, George Soros' Open Society Foundation, and other anti-democratic private sources.

It's a propaganda operation, opposed to "defending liberal democracy," supporting "aggressive regimes," not against them.
