It does not say how long they were stuck.

Azerbaijan’s ruling party defended school dress rules after some pupils wearing Islamic headscarves were reportedly refused entry to classes.

The rules apply in state schools in Azerbaijan and require clothing to follow the official uniform and secular education standards.

They do not explicitly ban headscarves, but some schools have enforced them as a restriction on pupils and teachers wearing them.

The Interior Ministry said 37 people were detained on Monday for disrupting public order while opposing enforcement of the rules.

MI5 chief Ken McCallum says Iran is seeking to target military sites in the UK.

He said this marks a shift beyond attacks on Iranian dissidents and Jewish sites, which Britain says have been targeted by Iranian proxies.

The warning comes as police investigate a suspected plot at RAF Fairford, a US-run base in western England used by US bombers during the war with Iran.

Police found gasoline in three vans near the base, but no explosives, and residents were evacuated during the response.

Bumble, a dating app company based in Texas, is reportedly in advanced talks to be bought by technology holding company Ithaca for around $1bn.

A deal could be announced as early as this week, according to the report.

Bumble shares rose almost 50% on Monday after the news, giving the company a market value of more than $580m.

That is still far below its value of more than $14bn after it listed on the Nasdaq in 2021.

In 1960, physicist Heinz von Foerster and colleagues published a population-growth model that set November 13, 2026, as a doomsday date.

They used estimates covering 2,000 years to project that human numbers would keep accelerating until they approached infinity.

The forecast assumed past growth would continue, and the authors argued people would be “squeezed to death,” not starve.

The date was a mathematical projection, not evidence that the world would end.

Marvin Harrison Jr. has officially joined the Houston Texans after passing his physical on Monday.

The 24-year-old wide receiver was traded from the Arizona Cardinals, who selected him fourth overall in the 2024 draft.

Houston sent Arizona a 2027 second-round pick and a seventh-round pick, and received Harrison and a 2027 sixth-round pick.

Harrison reunites with quarterback C.J. Stroud, his former teammate at Ohio State.

Hundreds queued in Hong Kong to see a long-hidden Van Gogh painting that has not been publicly exhibited for more than 60 years.

The work, “Chestnut Trees in Blossom,” was painted in May 1890, near the end of Van Gogh’s life in Auvers-sur-Oise, France.

It shows a large chestnut tree with a canopy full of blossoms.

Paintings from this final period of the Dutch artist’s life rarely come up for sale.

The DEA has proposed emergency restrictions on four kratom-linked substances found in some concentrated products.

The proposal would place the substances in Schedule I, the federal category for drugs considered to have a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use in the United States.

Kratom comes from a tree native to Southeast Asia and is sold in the United States in products such as powders, capsules and liquids.

It is marketed for pain relief and other uses, but as an herbal supplement it does not face the same safety testing rules as prescription medicines.
