Jabs designed to combat obesity might lower the likelihood of heart attacks, strokes, or heart failure among obese individuals, irrespective of the extent of weight loss experienced during the medication regimen. This indicates the potential for the treatment to yield benefits beyond mere reduction of excess body fat. Professor John Deanfield, who led the study, said the findings “have important clinical implications”. Report by Covellm.

The Court of Appeal has refused to change the sentence of Valdo Calocane, who killed three people in Nottingham last summer. Giving their judgment, the Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr said: “There was no error in the approach adopted by the judge. “The sentences imposed were not arguably unduly lenient.” She concluded: “It is impossible to read of the circumstances of this offending without the greatest possible sympathy for the victims of these terrible attacks, and their family and friends."

Hezbollah has shot down an IDF observation balloon into Lebanon, raising concerns about the possibility of a full-scale war if operations in Rafah continue. The incident follows Hezbollah's announcement of downing the Israeli spy balloon, claiming it was monitoring its movements over Adamit in northern Israel along the Lebanon border. The group asserts that the balloon's base and control centre were destroyed during the attack, with casualties among the operators. Israeli media has confirmed the balloon was shot down and fell in Lebanese territory. Tensions persist along the border, with Hezbollah engaging in clashes with Israel in recent months, particularly since the start of Israeli Rafah operations, during which the Iran-backed group has used drones against IDF forces. The situation remains tense, with casualties reported on both sides of the border.

An Indian UN worker lost his life in Gaza after a targeted attack on a UN vehicle in Rafah, marking the first international casualty in the Israel-Hamas conflict. The incident highlights the risks faced by humanitarian workers in conflict zones. UN Secretary-General António Guterres condemned the attack, emphasising the need to protect humanitarian workers. Indian UN representative Ruchira Kamboj condemned civilian casualties and emphasised adherence to international law. The attack follows the UN's backing of Palestinian membership bid, with 143 countries, including India, voting for recognition, prompting a call for reconsideration by the Security Council after a US veto last month.
