The Saudi foreign ministry said the report contained "inaccurate information and conclusions".

The United States on Friday publicly accused Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of approving the gruesome murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. This is the first time that the US has named the de-facto ruler of its ally Saudi in the killing. An intelligence report newly declassified by President Joe Biden's administration has concluded that the prince "approved an operation in Istanbul to capture or kill Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi." The report added that given Prince Mohammed's influence, it was "highly unlikely" that the 2018 murder could have taken place without his green light. Khashoggi, a critic of Prince Mohammed who wrote for The Washington Post and was a US resident, was lured to the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in October 2018, then killed and cut into pieces.

A law has been introduced in the US Congress for countering the Chinese propaganda by creating new sanctions authority against state-backed disinformation networks. It is based on recommendations from the Republican Study Committee's National Security Strategy and authorises sanctions against the United Front Work Department (UFWD), which is an overseas influence arm of the ruling Communist Party of China.

The bill requires the Secretary of State to examine whether or not the United Front Work Department meets the criteria to be sanctioned under this new authority.

US biotech firm Moderna is set to begin testing a new version of its Covid-19 vaccine that is specifically designed to target an emerging variant of the coronavirus that was first reported in South Africa. Moderna said that it has shipped doses of its variant-specific shot to the US National Institutes of Health for testing. This development is part of Moderna's efforts to counter Covid strains that are circulating and to get ahead of the constantly mutating virus. 'We look forward to beginning the clinical study of our variant booster and are grateful for the NIH's continued collaboration to combat this pandemic,' said CEO Stephane Bancel. The South African variant is considered the most dangerous because it evades some of the blocking action of antibodies that target the older coronavirus strain.

It's as gruesome and revolting as it can get. A man accused of a triple murder in the US sliced one victim's heart from her body and cooked it with potatoes to serve to other victims before attacking them, local media reports said. The suspect, Lawrence Paul Anderson, allegedly removed the heart from the body of a neighbor he had stabbed to death, cooked it and served it to his uncle, investigators reportedly told the Grady County Court in Chickasha on Tuesday. He later killed his uncle and his four-year-old granddaughter. Reports said that Anderson cooked the heart to feed to his family to "release the demons".
