Okay lets do an India/Pakistan update

Pakistan have shot down 2 Indian jets, and have closed all airspace to commercial flights.

The escalation came a one day after the Indian Air Force bombed a "terrorist training camp" inside Pakistan.
Pakistan’s PM @ImranKhanPTI currently addressing the nation:

"We didn't take action earlier without assessing our own damage from Indian airstrikes...Two Indian MiGs that entered Pakistani airspace today after our retaliation were shot down. But where do we go from here?"
In direct breach of the Geneva Convention, an Indian Air Force pilot tied up and filmed by Pakistani captors

#MdT 06/06/1944. Ore 6.30. Oggi è il giorno del D-Day, lo sbarco ad opera di truppe americane, inglesi e canadesi sulle spiagge chiamate in gergo dagli alleati con i nomi di Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno e Sword
Quella mattina un eroe, sconosciuto ai più, partì dalla costa francese per una missione. Era un giovane aviatore. Faceva parte di uno speciale distaccamento della RAF, la Royal Air Force inglese, aggregato alla prima divisione americana.
Il suo nome era Paddy. Dovera raggiungere la base militare di Hampshire, per fornire tutte le notizie relative allo sbarco.
Informazioni fondamentali per le sorti del conflitto.
La distanza? 230 miglia.

Report claims UK spy base in Cyprus intercepted a communication to a Russian official on the morning of the Skripal poisoning that said "the package has been delivered" & named two individuals who had “made a successful egress." express.co.uk/news/world/942…
(Yes, it's the Express, so should be treated with caution. But I've seen Giannangeli get military/intelligence scoops before so his reporting shouldn't be dismissed.)
GCHQ has a big presence in Cyprus, including an internet mass surveillance station at Ayios Nikolaos & a satellite communications spy site in the Troödos Mountains. The Royal Air Force has an important base in the south west of the island at Akroti.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
