KYIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian drones attacked a refinery in Russia's Ryazan region early Thursday, hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that a brief truce spurned by Moscow was over amid deepening tensions with Washington. The drone strike started a fire at the refinery about 300 kilometers (180 miles) southeast of Moscow, Russia's Defense Ministry and Ryazan Gov. Pavel Malkov said. Russia's Astra online news outlet posted what it said was a photograph of the blaze.
Greetings from Mexico City, where a bullfighting ban doesn't stop this matador training
They practice in the middle of Mexico City's big urban park. With a pair of real horns, one of them plays the bull by gliding toward the fuchsia bullfighting cape. They're practicing to kill, but as the sunlight filters through the trees and the bullfighter dodges with grace, his hips to one side, his arms perfectly perpendicular, it looks incongruently beautiful. "It's the ballet of death," José Luis Herros explains. But the movement from the bull looks too slow, too graceful, I tell him.

For some Christians, Hegseth's plan for public execution fits a biblical mandate
It is not clear if the public execution of the man behind the Fort Hood attack will be livestreamed, as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said it would be late last week. When asked about it on Tuesday, President Trump said, "We're looking at it," and Vice President JD Vance has stated that he would not watch it, raising doubts about whether it would happen. But whether or not the public execution proceeds, some religious scholars worry that damage has already been done.

One Saturday at a time: How a Birmingham dad turned loneliness into community
A children’s song fills a community room at the Avondale Library in Birmingham. Little ones gather for story time, some sitting in their fathers’ laps while others stand nearby, singing along. Around the room, dads keep a watchful eye on their children, coffee in hand, diaper bags close by. Some have strollers. Others are already deep in conversation with men they might not have known a few months ago. Dads and their children sit in a circle during September's pirate-themed dad meetup.
Aboard an icebreaker, a writer got a closer look at the Arctic's 'Sea Change'
As polar ice melts in the Arctic, shipping lanes are opening up, making the region a new zone of superpower competition. Writer Rana Foroohar got an up-close look aboard the USS Healy, a Coast Guard icebreaker. She says that traversing the North Pole by ship — once a "largely conceptual" route — is now becoming a "real possibility" for two or three weeks a year.
'New Yorker' cartoonists admit to having 'The Two Saddest Kitchens'
I've never cared much about cooking. Blame my mother. A woman of her generation, my mother never questioned that, even when she was working as a secretary, it was her job to get dinner (or "supper," as we called it) on the table every night for me and my father. She served up a meat and two veg most weeknights; Horn & Hardart fish cakes on Friday; and a roast on Sunday. But, she also often declared that she hated to cook. This endless production line of hot meals occasionally ground to a halt.
Louisiana, Mississippi borrowers face steepest tax hikes on student debt relief
Some forgiven federal student loans again count as income, and Louisiana and Mississippi residents could see the steepest tax increases, according to a new report from a nonprofit borrower advocacy group. Federal student loan borrowers on income-driven repayment (IDR) plans can have their remaining debt canceled after 20, 25 or 30 years. That forgiven debt had been exempt from federal income tax since 2021, but Congress let the policy expire at the end of last year.
