La estadounidense tiene el máximo tiempo de recuperación en Wimbledon.
The article discusses the scheduling of the first-round doubles match at Wimbledon involving American tennis player Serena Williams and her sister Venus Williams against the Argentine-Colombian pair Solana Sierra and Camila Osorio. The match was initially scheduled for Thursday and Friday but has been postponed due to Serena's injury during her singles match. Tournament organizer Andy Murray (likely a misstatement, as Andy Murray is a British player, and the correct name might be someone like Ashley Barker or another official) stated they are giving Serena as much time as possible to recover. They ruled out postponing the match to later dates unless necessary for safety or tournament flow. The match is expected to take place on a larger court to accommodate the large crowd attracted by Serena and Venus, who are major stars. Serena returned to professional tennis after four years, but she lost her first singles match and injured her knee. She did not attend a press conference afterward due to health reasons and expressed her commitment to participating in the doubles event. Serena and Venus have won six doubles titles together, including a title in 2016.
Ucrania reporta dos muertos tras ataques nocturnos de Rusia, cifra que ha aumentado a 30 en Kiev.
At least two people were killed and eight injured in Russian air strikes on the Sumy region and Kryvyj Rih in Ukraine during the night of Thursday to Friday, according to Ukrainian authorities. This follows a large-scale Russian attack on Kyiv earlier in the week which killed at least 30 people and injured around 100 others. In response to the attacks, Ukraine conducted missile strikes on Belgorod in Russia, causing a fire at an energy facility and killing one woman, according to Russian media. The overnight strike on the city of Romny in the Sumy region hit a residential building, killing two women and injuring a man, reported regional administrator Oleh Hryhorov via Telegram. Another seven people were injured in a missile strike on Kryvyj Rih, according to military city administrator Oleksandr Vilkul. In Kyiv, teams discovered three more dead bodies during the night, bringing the total number of victims to 30, according to Reuters citing Ukrainian health authorities. Kyiv's military administrator Tymur Tkačenko stated that the attack injured 99 people. Moscow claimed the extensive attack was a response to Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy infrastructure, including those carried

The article discusses the competitive dynamic between Australian rugby player Lene Ikitau and Irish player Stuart McCloskey, focusing on their rivalry in rugby matches. Ikitau, who plays for the Wallabies, reflects on his coaching under Joe Schmidt, highlighting the direct and candid approach Schmidt takes with players.

He has had a successful career with consistent performances and has faced McCloskey in multiple matches.

An Post posts €2.8m trading profit but pension charge pushes it into the red
An Post, Ireland's state-owned postal service, reported a net loss of €180.5 million for the past fiscal year, primarily driven by a €209.5 million accounting charge related to its defined benefit pension scheme. This charge stemmed from an amendment to employee benefits, resulting in increased pension liabilities. The loss was partially offset by a €26 million tax credit, leaving the company with a €2.8 million trading profit after excluding these extraordinary items. Despite the financial challenge, An Post saw revenue growth of 2.9% to nearly €1.05 billion, though letter volumes dropped 8%, while parcel deliveries rose 16%. The company also noted a significant decline in election-related revenue, and operational costs increased. Executive compensation figures were disclosed, including CEO David McRedmond's final year of pay and plans for his successor.
Strong tax returns of €50bn strengthen Government’s budgetary position
The Irish government reported stronger-than-expected tax revenues in the first half of 2024, with total tax income reaching €50 billion, up 1.2% from the previous year. Excluding one-time gains from the Apple tax ruling, core tax receipts rose by 4.8%, driven largely by corporation tax, which increased by 1.3% in June. This growth comes despite concerns about the volatility of multinational corporate profits. The government is preparing for additional revenue from the OECD's global minimum tax rate of 15%, which could add €5 billion annually starting in 2026. Meanwhile, income tax and VAT collections also showed growth, though the hospitality sector questions the necessity of the 9% VAT rate. Public spending remains ahead of projections, with potential overruns exceeding €1 billion due to increased costs in education, healthcare, and social welfare programs.

En el Pacífico tropical se han producido condiciones de El Niño, según los investigadores
El artículo informa que los investigadores de la organización de Ciencias de la Tierra de Nueva Zelanda (ESNZ) han identificado condiciones consistentes con el fenómeno climático de El Niño en el Pacífico tropical. Advierten que es probable que los impactos en el clima de Nueva Zelanda se intensifiquen en los próximos meses. El ESNZ se unió a otras organizaciones en Australia, Japón y los Estados Unidos para confirmar el desarrollo de El Niño, que se espera que alcance una fuerte intensidad entre julio y septiembre. Los efectos se proyectan para alcanzar su punto máximo durante el verano del hemisferio sur, que abarca desde finales de 2023 hasta principios de 2024. Según el investigador principal Chris Brandolini, este evento de El Niño es al menos comparable en fuerza a cinco de los El Niños más fuertes registrados en la historia moderna. El artículo describe las expectativas regionales de lluvias, señalando la posibilidad de precipitación por debajo del promedio en algunas áreas y por encima de los niveles normales en otras.

Deaths increased by 29% in France during week of record heat, health agency says
France experienced a significant rise in deaths during the week of June 22nd to June 28th, marked by record-breaking heat, according to Public Health France. The agency reported 8,973 deaths, a 29% increase compared to the previous week, with 2,025 additional deaths attributed to the extreme heat. The heatwave affected various regions, leading to increased hospital admissions for heat-related illnesses. Mortuaries in Paris faced challenges due to the high volume of bodies. Public Health France noted that the figures are still partial and likely understate the true impact, as the heat caused stress on healthcare systems and vulnerable populations.
Regency Hotel attack getaway drivers fail in bid to have prison sentences reduced
Two individuals, Jason Bonney and Paul Murphy, who served as getaway drivers during the 2016 Regency Hotel attack involving the Kinahan cartel, have had their prison sentences upheld by the Court of Appeal. The attack resulted in the death of Kinahan cartel member David Byrne during a boxing weigh-in. Bonney and Murphy were convicted of facilitating the Hutch Criminal Organisation's involvement in the murder. Despite their appeals citing Bonney's clean record and Murphy's limited role, Judge John Edwards ruled their contributions were 'far from peripheral' and significantly aided the criminals in evading police. The court emphasized the severity of the crime and the threat posed by the Hutch organisation.
Lyra McKee’s family says justice system ‘completely failed’ as men found not guilty of murder
Three men from Derry were found not guilty of murdering journalist Lyra McKee in 2019. McKee, a 29-year-old from Belfast, was killed during riots in the Creggan area of Derry when she was struck by a bullet near police vehicles. The New IRA claimed responsibility for the attack. The trial, which took place in Belfast Crown Court in 2024, resulted in the acquittal of Jordan Devine, Paul McIntyre, and Peter Cavanagh. McKee's family expressed deep disappointment, stating that the justice system 'completely failed' their loved one and Northern Ireland. They criticized the lack of witnesses coming forward with evidence and called for an end to the 'culture of silence' in the region. The judge acknowledged the tragedy but noted that the evidence against the defendants was insufficient for a conviction.
Almost two-thirds of women who had hospital abortion were previously pregnant, analysis shows
A recent analysis by the Health Service Executive (HSE) reveals that nearly two-thirds of women who underwent hospital-based abortions between May and December 2024 had a prior pregnancy. The report covers the first six years of Termination of Pregnancy Services in Ireland, showing a significant increase in the number of abortions performed, with 10,852 recorded in 2024 alone. The study examined 305 women across 14 maternity sites, finding that 81% received medical abortions, with most occurring between 10 to 12 weeks of gestation. Most participants were under 30, and many had histories of childbirth, miscarriage, or previous terminations. While the data collection system is currently limited to certain maternity units, plans exist to expand it nationally and into primary care. The HSE highlighted progress in expanding access to abortion services, noting an increase in both maternity units and primary care providers offering the procedure.
Late-night World Cup watching makes us both losers and winners. But mainly losers
The article humorously critiques the phenomenon of late-night World Cup watching, portraying it as a chaotic and sleep-depriving experience. It references a fictional scenario involving a writer named Paul Howard, who sends an incoherent WhatsApp message at 5:25 am while watching a match. The piece uses hyperbolic language to describe different groups of fans—maniacs, normals, and those struggling to stay awake—and frames the behavior as a form of self-inflicted rebellion. It suggests that this habit ultimately harms the viewer's future self, especially since Ireland is not participating in the tournament. The tone is satirical, highlighting the absurdity of staying up late to watch football matches, while also acknowledging the difficulty posed by extended game durations and technical delays.
