A gunman opened fire inside a gay club in the US state of Colorado on Saturday night, killing five people and injuring 18.
A suspect was in custody and being treated for injuries, police said.
Club Q, in Colorado Springs, released a statement on Facebook saying it was "devastated by the senseless attack on our community", and thanking customers who "subdued" the gunman.

In 2016, 49 people were killed in a shooting at a gay club in Florida.
Colorado Springs police said they received an initial emergency call about an active shooter at 23:57 (06:57 GMT) on Saturday.
The suspect was found inside the club when police entered.
Police did not immediately suggest a motive for the shooting and said the number of dead and injured could change as the investigation continues.

Tel Aviv and Jerusalem CNN —

Israel’s President Isaac Herzog announced Friday he will invite Benjamin Netanyahu to form Israel’s next government, paving the way for him to take the country’s top job for a record sixth time and extend his record as the nation’s longest-serving leader.

Herzog will officially issue the mandate to Netanyahu on Sunday, he said. Herzog made the announcement after meeting with all the factions in parliament, the Knesset, to ask who they would back for prime minister.

What makes this horn of Africa nation attractive to global military powers?
The horn of Africa comprises of these countries Sudan, Somalia, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Seychelles, and Kenya.
Ethiopia Accused the US, and EU of supporting Tigray Rebels, Djibouti also provides a vital port for landlocked neighbor Ethiopia
Somalia, to the southeast, has been a hotbed of unrest - Biden in May approved plans to redeploy US troops to Somalia.
Yemen, currently in conflict, is less than 20 miles northeast across the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait - also an easy pathway into the Middle East.

Djibouti, a small country on the Red Sea, is home to military bases from the US and France, for many reasons but one could be the fact that China's interest is now becoming increasingly apparent.
US pays $63m annually in rent for its base and the Chinese will bring in $100m for theirs, in addition to their ongoing infrastructure projects so it is not difficult to see why Djibouti is looking past the rivalries of the global powers and enjoying its lucrative role as their landlord.
Chinese-led infrastructure projects - including the construction of air and maritime ports - are present here, just as they are elsewhere in Africa.
The presence of the US army in the Horn of Africa appears to be a destabilizing force in the internal affairs of the region's governments.

Is the RIGHT-WING really about religion, family, and country?

Is this the way Christians should act? Preaching hate and lies.

The right wants to preserve the traditional family values and support them because I am African, but this hatred is not something that I would love to be a part of because I support freedom and democracy.

DR Congo conflict: Why Kenyan troops are joining the battle
Published 5 hours ago BBC
How many troops will go to DR Congo?

There is no specific figure on the number of troops that will be deployed. What we know so far is that only four countries - Kenya, Uganda, South Sudan, and Burundi - are sending their soldiers.

One thousand Kenyan troops will join their Burundi counterparts who arrived in DR Congo in early August for the joint mission against the rebels. It is not clear if Tanzania will deploy troops.

Military officials have declined to reveal the numbers of soldiers involved, citing security and strategic reasons.

Burundian soldiers are currently based at Luberezi near Bukavu in South Kivu. The Kenyan contingent will be stationed near Goma in North Kivu and will command the East African Community Regional Force.

Rwanda is also a member of the EAC but it has been agreed it should not contribute to the regional force.

Niger-Congo is a hypothetical language family spoken over the majority of sub-Saharan Africa.[1] It unites the Mande languages, the Atlantic-Congo languages (which share a characteristic noun class system), and possibly several smaller groups of languages that are difficult to classify. If valid, Niger-Congo would be the world's largest in terms of member languages, the third-largest in terms of speakers, and Africa's largest in terms of geographical area.[2] It is generally considered to be the world's largest language family in terms of the number of distinct languages,just ahead of Austronesian.

Origin.
The language family most likely originated in or near the area where these languages were spoken prior to Bantu expansion (i.e. West Africa or Central Africa). Its expansion may have been associated with the expansion of Sahel agriculture in the African Neolithic period, following the desiccation of the Sahara in c. 3500 BCE.
According to Roger Blench (2004), all specialists in Niger–Congo languages believe the languages to have a common origin, rather than merely constituting a typological classification, for reasons including their shared noun-class system, shared verbal extensions and shared basic lexicon.
