The pair were convicted of violence and incitement to hatred but cleared of causing the victim’s demise Two French livestreamers have received suspended prison sentences for repeatedly abusing and humiliating a man during online broadcasts before his death. A criminal court in Nice found Safine Hamadi and Owen Cenazandotti guilty of violence against 46-year-old Raphael Graven, known online as Jean Pormanove, as well as incitement to hatred over insults directed at him. Graven died on August 18, 2025, while the streamers were asleep during a live broadcast. Prosecutors later said his death was probably linked to poor health and a fragile heart rather than the abuse itself. The abuse was streamed on the Kick platform over several days. The defendants maintained that the violence and humiliation had been scripted, partly staged and carried out with Graven’s consent. Hamadi, who expressed remorse durin...
“We are doing the same” in Iran, the US president has said, appearing to link military operations to control of oil resources US President Donald Trump has hailed Venezuelan oil as the “spoils” of war, in stark contrast to his earlier portrayal of the January operation in Caracas as being intended to bring “peace, liberty, and justice” to the Venezuelan people. Speaking in Las Vegas on Wednesday, Trump claimed that “billions and billions of barrels of oil” are coming out of Venezuela, describing it as “one of the most fertile places for oil in the world.” Venezuela holds the world’s largest proven oil reserves, surpassing Saudi Arabia and Iran, despite years of sanctions and underinvestment. Referring to the January operation in which the US kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, Trump said Washington had recovered its costs “many, man...
President Donald Trump earlier suggested that the incompetence of local authorities was behind the problems, rather than Iran Hackers have targeted water and wastewater utilities in at least a dozen US states, ABC News has reported, citing multiple sources. The American authorities believe that Iran, which has been in conflict with the US since being attacked in late February, is the main suspect behind the cyberattacks, although its involvement hasn’t been officially confirmed, the broadcaster said on Tuesday. Tehran hasn’t commented on the claims. Over the years, the US has accused Iran of attempting to hack its banks, infrastructure, and communications of high-ranking officials, with the Islamic Republic consistently denying the allegations. Last Thursday, the FBI said “malicious cyber actors” had targeted water and wastewater utility systems in seven states in late July. Their...
A new Pentagon-IDF tie-up deepens military integration while ordinary US citizens get more war, more debt, and less to hope for at home In the early 2000s, I worked with domestic violence victims in Seattle, Washington. One of my trainers was a scrappy woman who told me she was a former member of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Looking back, I remember wondering why several former Mossad and IDF personnel were involved in training Seattle police officers. At the time, I didn’t think much of it. After all, they were working to help protect victims of domestic violence. Fast forward to 2026. Buried inside the massive National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2027 is Section 219, a provision that creates what is officially called the United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative. In practical terms, it directs the Pentagon to deepen the integration of US and Israeli mi...
The US is aiming to announce an agreement on reopening the key waterway on Wednesday, the outlet has reported Tehran would gain greater control over shipping through the Strait of Hormuz under an interim agreement being negotiated by the US, Iran, and Oman, Axios reported on Wednesday. The strategic waterway between Iran and Oman carries around one-fifth of the world’s seaborne oil. US President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that he had called off a planned attack on Iran, claiming that Washington and Tehran were close to reaching a diplomatic solution. Trump said on Wednesday that the sides were “having very good discussions,” but warned that Iran would be “hit very hard” if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened “very soon.” Fighting resumed last month after a dispute over control of the Strait of Hormuz derailed a 14-point memorandum that had established a ...
