İşte Türkiye'nin hayalet uçağı: ANKA-3

Turkish aerospace firm TUSAŞ recently announced its production targets through 2035, aiming to put more than 1,500 air vehicles into the inventory of the Turkish Air Force over the coming nine years. A CNN TÜRK team visited the company's Kahramankazan facility near Ankara and filmed the hardware up close. Among the aircraft shown was the ANKA-3, Turkey's flying-wing unmanned combat drone. Its tailless design is intended to lower the vehicle's radar signature during missions. TUSAŞ has developed the drone to add low-observable strike and reconnaissance options to the country's air power. The company has been running flight tests of the ANKA-3 as it moves the design toward operational use. Delivery numbers for individual models were not disclosed during the visit. The 1,500-vehicle target indicates Turkey expects unmanned systems to take up a large share of its future fleet.

Sanal medya paylaşımları ele verdi! 7 ilde 45 gözaltı

Police in Turkey have carried out synchronized raids across seven provinces, with the operation coordinated from Ankara. The action targeted suspects accused of involvement in prostitution and obscenity offenses. Investigators opened the case after combing through content that suspects had posted on social media platforms and other online channels. Prosecutors secured detention warrants for 54 people in connection with the inquiry. During the raids, officers managed to detain 45 of the suspects on the list. The remaining nine could not be found when the operations unfolded. Authorities say work is continuing to track down the fugitives and bring them in. Officials have not given details on when the remaining arrests might happen.

Okul saldırıları komisyonundan çarpıcı tespit: "Sanal medyaya RTÜK gibi denetim olsun"

A parliamentary commission investigating attacks in schools is working toward a report with far-reaching proposals. The committee has been examining the causes of violence in schools and possible remedies. Commission chairman İsa Mesih Şahin confirmed that the drafting process is still underway. The most striking recommendation so far is the creation of a new regulatory body for digital media, built along the lines of RTÜK. RTÜK already monitors television and radio content across Turkey. The commission argues that online platforms carry just as much influence over children and need comparable oversight. The idea is expected to raise questions about media freedom and the scope of state regulators. The completed report is due once the writing phase concludes.

Lagumdžija: Očekujem da će mandat EUFOR-a u BiH biti produžen, oni koji prijete njegovim odlaskom znaju šta bi ih snašlo

Bosnian politician Zlatko Lagumdžija says he expects the mandate of the EUFOR peacekeeping force in Bosnia and Herzegovina to be extended. He expressed confidence that the mission will stay in the country and continue its work. Lagumdžija issued a blunt warning to those who have threatened or advocated the force's departure. In his view, the people pushing for a withdrawal know exactly what would befall them if they succeeded. EUFOR has operated in Bosnia since 2004 under a mandate renewed regularly to keep the peace established by the Dayton Agreement. Its presence has become a recurring flashpoint in Bosnian politics, with some local figures openly questioning its role. Decisions on extending such missions are taken at the international level rather than in Sarajevo alone. Lagumdžija's remarks amount to a bet that international commitment to Bosnia will hold firm.

Police hold peace meeting over Anglican Church crisis in Anambra

Police in Anambra State have held a peace meeting over the leadership crisis at St Faith Anglican Church in Awka. The session gathered the parties involved in the dispute, which has divided the church's leadership and unsettled its congregation. Officers urged everyone present to pursue a resolution through the church's own hierarchy rather than through confrontation. The police intervention signals worry that the conflict could spill into public disorder if left to fester. St Faith is one of the prominent Anglican churches in Awka, the Anambra State capital. Disputes over control of parishes in Nigeria can freeze worship and push members into rival camps. No binding outcome was announced after the meeting. Further talks are expected if the factions cannot agree on a way forward.

FG orders tighter Ebola screening at Nigeria’s entry points

Nigeria's Federal Government has ordered stricter enforcement of Ebola screening protocols at every point of entry into the country. Checks will intensify at arrival terminals and border posts across the federation. Health officials want to stop cross-border transmission before the virus can gain a foothold inside Nigeria. The sharpened protocols come amid concern about Ebola movement in the wider region. Screening teams can be expected to step up temperature checks and isolate anyone showing symptoms of the disease. The government has not said whether extra funding or personnel will back the tightened regime. Travelers should prepare for slower processing at busy crossings and terminals. Nigeria contained the virus quickly during the 2014 West African outbreak, and officials appear determined to repeat that performance.

Wike urges states to adopt FCT, Rivers coalition model

Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike has urged other Nigerian states to adopt the coalition model in place in the FCT and Rivers State. He argued that the arrangement promotes political cooperation and brings stability that crosses party lines. Wike, who governed Rivers for two terms before taking the FCT job, has long balanced relationships across rival parties. His own seat in an All Progressives Congress federal cabinet despite his Peoples Democratic Party roots reflects that same stance. According to him, states that copy the model would find their politics calmer and their governance more predictable. The appeal lands amid ongoing realignments among Nigerian politicians. It remains to be seen whether governors and state assemblies will take up his suggestion.

Zelenski potvrdio pregovore s Rusima: Objavio dva ključna uvjeta

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed that negotiations with Russia are happening, and he announced two key conditions tied to the talks. He made it clear that much will depend on Russia's conduct as the process moves along. Zelensky recalled that a similar meeting planned for this month never took place, a fact he appeared to weigh heavily. The exact wording of the two conditions was not disclosed in the announcement. Ukraine and Russia have traded proposals in stop-start fashion since the full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Kyiv has consistently pressed for security guarantees and concrete terms before agreeing to any wider settlement. Whether a rescheduled meeting materializes will be read as a test of Moscow's intentions.

Kwara ADC publicity secretary resigns

Abubakar Basambo has resigned as the publicity secretary of the African Democratic Congress in Kwara State. He cited hypocrisy and dishonesty among the party's leaders as his reason for walking away from the post. The resignation removes a key media voice from the opposition party at a moment when it is trying to build its profile nationally. The ADC has positioned itself in recent months as the platform for a broad coalition of politicians seeking an alternative to the ruling All Progressives Congress. Basambo's accusation raises questions about internal cohesion within the Kwara chapter. He did not announce plans to join another party or to leave politics altogether. Party officials in the state have yet to respond publicly to his claims.

Trump to contact Musk if Ukraine Starshield issues persist

US President Donald Trump says he will get in touch with Elon Musk if problems with Ukraine's Starshield communications platform are not resolved. Starshield is the military-grade satellite communications service built by Musk's company SpaceX, and Ukrainian forces depend on it for secure links on the battlefield. Trump framed direct contact with Musk as a fallback if the technical issue cannot be sorted out through normal channels. The comment signals concern at the highest level of the US government about a possible gap in Ukraine's military communications. Any sustained outage on the platform would hit Ukrainian units at a time when connectivity can decide battlefield coordination. Neither SpaceX nor Ukrainian officials were quoted on the scale or duration of the problem. It remains unclear what exactly is malfunctioning or how long the fault has persisted.

Okpebholo vows to sign death warrants of convicted kidnappers

Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo says he will sign the death warrants of four convicted kidnappers if they fail to appeal their sentences within 30 days. The ultimatum puts a firm clock on the legal options available to the condemned men. Under Nigerian law, a state governor's signature is required before an execution can be carried out. Okpebholo's warning signals that his administration is ready to enforce capital punishment for kidnapping, a crime that has battered communities across Nigeria for years. If the four let the deadline pass, or exhaust their appeals without success, the governor intends to act. Several Nigerian states have prescribed the death penalty for kidnapping in response to waves of abductions. No execution date has been announced while the 30-day window remains open.

Police arrest man for stabbing, killing colleague in Bauchi

Police in Bauchi State have arrested a 40-year-old man over the killing of his work colleague. Officers say the stabbing grew out of an argument between the two men at a car wash, where the quarrel centered on the prices charged for the service. The dispute escalated until the suspect allegedly attacked the other man with a knife, and the victim died from his injuries. Detectives later took the suspect into custody, and he remains in police hands while investigations continue. The command has not released the victim's name or the exact location where the confrontation happened. It also has not confirmed what charges will be filed, though the severity of the case suggests a murder file is being prepared. Residents have been left shaken that a routine disagreement over fees ended in a death. Investigators are gathering statements from anyone who witnessed the confrontation.

Video / Zijad Krnjić: Amidžić nanio štetu BiH, oni koji su bili vlast u zadnje četiri godine trebaju u opoziciju

Zijad Krnjić has used a video statement to accuse Amidžić of causing damage to Bosnia and Herzegovina. He added that everyone who was in power over the last four years should now end up in opposition. At the same time he expects his own camp to stay in government. He said it seems logical to him that the Party for BiH will be part of the government, and a significant part at that. The statement lands while parties are still bargaining over posts in the next government. Krnjić condemns the previous officeholders while positioning his party as a natural coalition partner at the same time. There is no reply from Amidžić in the statement, so the exchange remains one-sided for now.

Pandurević oštro kritikovala Blanušu: "On ima diktatorsko ponašanje, pokušava pokriti svoje odluke o povjereniku za Bijeljinu"

Pandurević has attacked Blanuša in blunt terms over his handling of the commissioner post for Bijeljina. She accused him of dictatorial behaviour and of trying to cover up his own decisions on the appointment. Only someone who wants to destroy the Serb Democratic Party would take such an absurd decision, she said. The quarrel centres on a commissioner, an appointee put in place outside normal local government channels. Pandurević's wording frames the dispute as an attempt to weaken her party rather than a routine staffing matter. Her party's role as the main Serb opposition force gives the clash a wider political weight. The report leaves open how Blanuša intends to respond to the criticism.

1 Kasım'da başlıyor! Sanal medya kullanıcılarına önemli uyarı

Turkish authorities have issued an early warning about scammers circling the country's new age verification rules for social media users. The Disinformation Combat Center, a body under the Presidency's Directorate of Communications, says fraudsters are already trying to exploit the regulation that takes effect on November 1, 2026. Fake messages telling people 'your account will be closed' or 'do your age verification immediately' are being used to trick users into handing over personal and financial details. The center urges the public to treat such texts with suspicion and to respond only through official channels. For existing accounts, the deadline to complete verification is March 31, 2027, which gives users a clear window to comply. Officials back the rule as a way to protect younger users online, but its rollout has clearly created an opening for phishing schemes. The safest move is to check who sent any message about verification and refuse to share codes or banking details with strangers.

Police detain four officers in Lagos over viral harassment video

Four police officers in Lagos have been detained over a viral video that showed them harassing a man in Ikorodu. The footage circulated widely online, drawing a swift response from the Lagos State Police Command. Beyond the detentions, the command also disbanded the tactical team the officers belonged to. No explanation has been given so far for the officers' behaviour in the clip. The speed of the action suggests the command wanted to contain public anger before it grew. Questions about aggressive policing are a recurring theme in Nigeria, which is why such clips spark reactions so quickly. The detained officers now face the command's internal process, and further announcements are expected.

Trampova administracija pokreće tužbu kako bi spriječila moguću pobjedu demokrata na Aljasci

The Trump administration has launched a court action to block the confirmation of Alaska's Senate election result. The legal push aims to prevent the state from certifying a count that could hand the seat to a Democrat. Certification in Alaska is normally carried out by state officials once counting and review steps are complete. By going to court, the administration is trying to stop that process from being finished. A single Senate seat can matter for the balance of power in Washington, which is why the fight is being taken this far. Federal involvement in a state certification dispute of this kind is unusual. The legal arguments are likely to be tested in the coming days, and further delay of the outcome appears probable.

Služba Vlade RS-a za četke za toalete i gume za pisoare izdvaja skoro 6.000 KM

The government service of Republika Srpska is spending close to 6,000 marks on toilet brushes and rubber guards for urinals. The amount works out at just over three thousand euros for bathroom fittings in official premises. A look at the available report shows no indication of how many brushes or guards were actually purchased. The report also leaves out the price of a single item, which makes the deal impossible to assess. Publication of procurement data exists so the public can check where state money goes. With neither the quantity nor the unit price disclosed, there is nothing to compare the outlay against. The purchase is small by government standards, but the missing figures raise a fair question about how such orders are documented.

Tragické nehody si vyžiadali dva životy: Zomrelo 8-ročné dieťa aj senior

Two separate road tragedies have claimed the lives of an eight-year-old child and an 83-year-old man. The first crash happened on Friday in the Sabinov district, and police are still working to establish the circumstances. The child's death has left the local community grieving and asking what went wrong on that stretch of road. The second fatal accident took place in Obdach, in Austria, when a passenger car collided with a truck. The Slovak driver behind the wheel of the car did not survive the impact. Austrian investigators will handle that case, though the victim's Slovak origin is already known. Neither crash has produced an official cause, so it remains unclear whether speed or road conditions played a part. The two deaths cast a shadow over the weekend for two families.

Drivers and passengers were left to find other ways across the city until the line reopens. Police have not said what caused the crash or who was at fault. Traffic on the route should return to normal once the vehicles are removed and checks are complete.

The German champions confirmed the news on Friday, but their statement was brief. Nothing has been said so far about what caused the collapse or about his current condition. The club also gave no indication of when he might be able to return to work. Kompany, a former Manchester City captain, has been in charge at Bayern since the summer of 2024. He led the club to the Bundesliga title in his first season in charge. Word of a coach collapsing on a training ground spreads fast among players and staff, and attention will now turn to updates from the hospital.

Medical staff are expected to run tests before he is cleared to return to the training ground. Bayern has not said what the examinations show or how long he will be away. His assistants stepped in to cover the session, and they are likely to run things until he is back. The news drew immediate concern from supporters and figures across German football. Further updates are expected once the doctors have a clearer picture of his condition.

Kwara approves promotions for 5,956 basic education workers

Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara State has approved promotions for 5,956 workers in basic education. The beneficiaries cover both teaching and non-teaching staff under the State Universal Basic Education Board. Financial benefits tied to the promotions will take effect from October 2026. The approval was confirmed in a statement obtained by The PUNCH on Friday. Before the list was finalized, the board ran a computer-based test earlier in the month to assess eligible employees. Those test results appear to have formed the basis for who was promoted. The announcement did not include a breakdown between teachers and support staff, nor the new grade levels. Nor was the monetary value of each promotion disclosed.

Nutritious foods, malnourished children: Researchers explore hidden nutrition gap in Saboba

Communities in northern Ghana may be sitting on a rich supply of nutritious local foods without getting the full health benefit from them. A food science team from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology has been working in the Saboba District of the Northern Region. Their work points to a puzzling contradiction: households live among locally available foods that are genuinely nourishing, yet children in the district still show signs of malnutrition. The team believes the gap comes from limited knowledge about how to prepare these foods and how to combine them into balanced meals. Lacking that know-how, families end up underusing ingredients or cooking them in ways that strip away their value. The researchers are now identifying which local foods could make the biggest difference if their worth were better understood. Their findings suggest that education around food preparation can matter as much as the food itself in fighting child malnutrition. The team hopes the work will guide programs aimed at closing this hidden nutrition gap in Saboba.

Lluvia en Santiago: anuncian nuevos chubascos y vientos de hasta 60 km/h para este fin de semana

Rain will return to Santiago on Friday afternoon and evening after the precipitation recorded in recent days across the Metropolitan Region. Forecasters at Meteored say the showers could stretch until the morning of Saturday, October 24, keeping the city wet through the night. The new round of instability is not expected to hit the capital evenly, with some districts taking on more rain than others. Winds could reach speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour over the weekend, which will make conditions feel harsher on exposed streets. Residents heading out on Friday night should carry rain gear and expect slower commutes. Drivers will want to watch for slick roads and ponding water in low-lying areas. The incoming front follows a stretch of wet weather that has already soaked the city. Drier conditions are expected to settle in once the system moves through on Saturday.

Femeie amendată după ce a căzut într-o groapă din carosabil și a ajuns la spital. Sancțiunea a creat controverse în Italia: „Bătaie de joc”

A woman from Capurso, a town in the province of Bari, fell into a pothole in the roadway and needed medical care for her injuries. Weeks after the accident, local police sent her a fine instead of any acknowledgment of what she had been through. The sanction has ignited controversy across Italy, where commenters have branded it a mockery. Many argue the town should be fixing its potholes rather than penalizing the people who get hurt by them. The woman's story has circulated widely in Italian media, drawing criticism of the local force's decision. Officials have not offered a clear explanation for why the fine was issued or whether it can be appealed. The case has fed into a larger argument about the poor condition of Italian roads. For now, the woman is left dealing with her injuries and a penalty she never expected.

Austrija protjerala četiri ruska diplomata. Moskva joj prijeti posljedicama

Austria has expelled four Russian diplomats, a move that has triggered a swift and pointed reaction from Moscow. The Russian side announced that its response to the expulsions is inevitable, though it withheld any details about what measures it is preparing. Neither government has named the diplomats or spelled out the official grounds for the order. Expulsions of this kind normally mean individuals are declared persona non grata and given a short window to leave the country. The decision lands at a time when relations between Vienna and Moscow are already strained by the war in Ukraine. Austria's action shows it continues to take the harder line that much of Europe has adopted toward Russian diplomatic staff. Moscow's promised retaliation now hangs over whatever diplomatic exchanges come next.

She has not specified which events those will be, so it remains unclear whether she plans one-off starts or a shift to another discipline. Slovenian women's cycling has long been carried by a handful of established names, and her step back thins that group further. Younger riders in the national setup will now have a bigger opening to move into the spotlight. Her decision ends a career that many considered among the finest the country has produced.

Bartlett leads Canada marketing blitz to convert 400,000 winter seats into bookings

Bartlett is fronting a marketing blitz with one very specific target: converting 400,000 winter airline seats into paid bookings. The seats are already sitting on carriers' schedules for Canada's winter season. Unsold ones cost the airlines money either way, so the campaign is under real pressure to deliver. The push leans on advertising in key source markets and joint promotions with travel partners. Canadian winters draw skiers to the Rockies and carnival crowds to Quebec City, which gives marketers plenty of hooks. Converting schedules into sales is tough work in a crowded global travel market. The verdict will come in the booking data over the months ahead.

Taken together, the accusations point to escalating trouble in the household in the run-up to the death. None of it has been tested, and the accused retains the presumption of innocence. The case is still at an early stage, and further hearings lie ahead.

Donald Trump and Keir Starmer spent part of their private talks on Ukraine. The British side attempted to talk the American president round on Volodymyr Zelensky, whom Trump has criticised more than once. Whatever arguments were made, they were made behind closed doors, and no full account has emerged. London has a lot riding on Washington staying committed to Kyiv, which is why the persuasion effort matters. Officials on both sides released only vague readouts of the meeting. That leaves diplomats and journalists sifting for clues about whether Trump's view of Zelensky shifted at all. The episode shows how much of the war's Western diplomacy now rests on one man's attitude toward the Ukrainian president.

Glenstal Abbey, one of Ireland's best-known private schools, looks set to close. An internal assessment carried out at the Co Limerick school reached a blunt conclusion. It stated plainly that 'the kind of school we have here at Glenstal is not sustainable into the future'. The school operates alongside a Benedictine monastery near Murroe and has built a national reputation for boarding and strong exam results. Fees put it at the top end of the Irish market, and its places have long been in demand. Parents and staff will now want clarity on when the doors shut and how current pupils will be looked after. No detailed timetable for the closure has been laid out.

Indian FM visits Ateshgah fire temple in Baku

India's foreign minister made a stop at the Ateshgah fire temple on the outskirts of Baku. The walled complex in the Surakhani district dates to the 17th and 18th centuries, when merchants and pilgrims gathered there to worship fire. Many of those visitors came from India, and inscriptions in Sanskrit carved into the stone walls survive to this day. Flames fed by gas seeping out of the ground burned at the site for centuries, a phenomenon that helped earn Azerbaijan its nickname, the Land of Fire. The fires died out in the late 1800s after oil drilling nearby drew off the underground gas. Ateshgah now operates as a protected museum and remains one of Baku's best-known landmarks. The visit appeared to carry a deliberate nod to the centuries-old ties between India and the South Caucasus.

Билл Гейтс прогнозирует ближайшие 20 лет хаоса из-за ИИ

Bill Gates thinks the world is heading into a rough stretch, and he has put a number on it. The Microsoft co-founder said in an interview that people should get ready for 20 years of turbulence driven by artificial intelligence. His argument is that the technology will change how people work and live faster than societies can adjust. Gates has long balanced excitement about AI with warnings about its side effects. He points to possible gains in medicine and productivity, but he insists preparation matters as much as the breakthroughs. His remarks land in the middle of a running debate over how fast AI should be reined in. When a man who helped build the software era sounds an alarm like this, plenty of people listen.

Un financista audaz que nunca le soltó la mano al “Chiqui” Tapia

Ariel Vallejo is back in business, and the timing is drawing notice. The Argentine financier reopened the doors of Sur Finanzas less than a month ago. LA NACION had revealed the first complaint against him a full year earlier. His closeness to Claudio 'Chiqui' Tapia, the president of Argentine football, has long been one of his calling cards. The legal filing from a year ago put his name under intense scrutiny, yet he carried on regardless. Reopening Sur Finanzas signalled he sees no reason to step back. How long that confidence lasts may depend on what investigators do next.

Politiker greps i Turkiet – tillbaka i Sverige

Lütfi Baksi, a Swedish-Kurdish politician, was detained by Turkish police at Istanbul airport. His arrest at a major international hub made news in both countries. Sweden is sensitive to anything involving Kurds and Turkey, so the case did not pass quietly in Stockholm. He is now back in Sweden. Why he was stopped in the first place remains unexplained. It is also unclear whether Turkish authorities opened any formal case against him. The episode lands in the middle of a prickly relationship between Stockholm and Ankara.

Why I kept my children away from my father – Meghan

Meghan Markle has explained why her children have no relationship with her father, Thomas Markle. In a statement reported by the BBC on Friday, the Duchess of Sussex said the decision was taken to protect them. She pointed to disturbing allegations she learned about in 2018 as the reason for keeping the distance. Her remarks followed reports concerning images of child sexual abuse, though the statement stopped short of detailing them. Meghan has been estranged from her father for years, and the rift between them has only deepened over time. She offered no indication of whether any contact with him might ever be restored. The family conflict has played out in public for years through interviews and leaked exchanges. Her statement adds a personal dimension to that ongoing story, this time centered on the safety of her children.
