Edinburgh Attacks: Police Charge 36-Year-Old Man
Police have charged a 36-year-old man in connection with a series of violent attacks in Edinburgh on Friday. The incidents, which Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said appeared to be motivated by “anti-Muslim hatred,” began near a mosque in the west of the city and spread to multiple locations, including a pizzeria and a petrol station. Five men aged between 22 and 39 sustained injuries. CCTV footage captured a suspect attempting to smash into a pizzeria before being detained by police.

Trump-Meloni Dispute Escalates
US President Donald Trump has renewed his attacks on Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, claiming she “begged” for a photo at the G7 summit in France and accusing her of refusing to allow US use of Italian landing strips during military operations against Iran. Meloni released a video refuting Trump’s claims, insisting Italy never begs, and later posted on Instagram that the attacks are “senseless” and that base usage is governed by binding agreements. Former Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi weighed in, calling for a different relationship between Europe and the United States, warning that far-right leaders like Meloni face political fallout from such disputes.
