DOUANKARA, Mauritania (AP) — Multiple women have told The Associated Press they survived or witnessed alleged rapes and other sexual assaults committed by a new Russian military unit in Mali, where it is assisting the military in hunting down extremists.Men, women and children have been sexually assaulted by all sides during the conflict, the U.N. and aid workers say, with reports of gang rape and sexual slavery.

Aid workers and others cite a veil of shame that makes it difficult for women from conservative, patriarchal societies to seek help.That silence also hurts efforts to hold…

PEDRO CAYUQUEO, Chile (AP) — The Mapuches, Chile’s biggest Indigenous group, have endured centuries of battle. They resisted conquest first by the ancient Incas, then by the Spanish. They fought as the nascent Chilean state annexed their territories and as military dictator Gen. Augusto Pinochet devastated their communities by terminating collective property, allowing for the confiscation and sale of their lands to forestry companies. Now the Mapuches, who make up roughly 12% of Chile’s 19 million people, fear a more violent chapter in their history is yet to come as the country prepares to elect its next president on Sunday…

Arteta described his team as “passive” in the moments before Tolu Arokodare headed Wolves level at 1-1 and said that was more…

It is unlikely to be the last time he has to come to his striker’s defence. The summer signing’s struggles continued in the 2-1 win. The 27-year-old kept his place in the starting line-up following a frustrating Champions League outing against Club Brugge in midweek. Against the Premier League’s bottom side, it felt…

Dec 13, 2025, 04:12 PM ETScott Parker said the sound of Burnley fans booing at the final whistle of Saturday’s 3-2 home loss to Fulham “breaks my heart” after his relegation-battling side fell to a seventh straight Premier League loss.The Clarets had their chances in the game but where Fulham were clinical, the hosts spurned their best opportunities as Bernd Leno made some critical saves for Marco Silva’s side.And Burnley’s defence — key to their success in the Championship last term — wilted, badly at fault for Emile Smith Rowe’s opener and then, after Lesley Ugochukwu levelled, for allowing Calvin…
