Američanka ima na Wimbledonu kar največ časa za okrevanje.
V članku se razpravlja o razporedu prvega kroga dvoboja na Wimbledonu, v katerem sodelujejo ameriška teniska Serena Williams in njena sestra Venus Williams proti argentinsko-kolumbijski pari Solani Sierra in Kamili Osorio. Tekma je bila prvotno načrtovana za četrtek in petek, vendar je bila preložena zaradi poškodbe Serenine med njenim dvobojem. Organizator turnirja Andy Murray (verjetno napačna izjava, saj je Andy Murray britanski igralec, in pravilno ime bi lahko bilo nekdo, kot je Ashley Barker ali drug uradnik) je dejal, da dajejo Serenini čim več časa za okrevanje.
Putin prvič priznava naftne karte
Ruski predsednik Vladimir Putin je prvič priznal, da Rusija gradi "nekatere rezerve nafte" med srečanjem, osredotočenim na energetska vprašanja. Poudaril je potrebo po krepitvi domače proizvodnje nafte in povečanju proizvodnje. Medtem so ukrajinske sile nadaljevale napade na rusko energetsko infrastrukturo, pri čemer so v južni Krasnodarski regiji, ki letno proizvaja približno štiri milijone ton surove nafte, detonirale naftno rafinerijo. Krasnodarska regija je ena največjih ruskih naftnih območij, ki se nahajajo blizu Črnega morja. V torek so ukrajinske sile začele obsežne zračne napade na Sevastopol, največje mesto na Krimu, vključno z napadi na naftne objekte.

Police officer investigated for trying to board plane with live rounds
A police officer from Gyeonggi Province is under investigation for attempting to board a flight with live ammunition, according to Jeju Island police. The incident occurred on Sunday when the officer, in his 30s, was heading to Gimpo Airport at Jeju Airport. He was not carrying a firearm but had two .38-caliber bullets, which are standard issue for South Korean police. Airport officials did not discover the bullets in his luggage during boarding. The National Forensic Service confirmed the caliber of the bullets. The officer claims he received the bullets from a retired colleague. South Korea has strict laws requiring police officers to store their weapons at the station.
Gyeonggi gov. orders inspection, after bullying death of nurse
Following the death of a 27-year-old nurse who reportedly committed suicide after experiencing severe workplace bullying, Gyeonggi Governor Choo Mi-ae has ordered inspections of medical facilities in the province. The nurse had previously filed a complaint with the Ministry of Employment and Labor, which investigated and confirmed bullying against only one of the three senior nurses accused. Despite this, the hospital reprimanded the nurse while allowing the others to keep their positions. The practice of 'taeum,' where new nurses are bullied until they resign, has drawn national attention and criticism, including from President Lee Jae Myung, who condemned it as unjustifiable violence. Authorities are now investigating the case, with police interviewing the victim's family and colleagues and examining digital evidence.
Former World Cup star Park Ji-sung co-chairs soccer reform committee
Former South Korean soccer star Park Ji-sung has been appointed as a co-chair of a new football reform committee aimed at addressing systemic issues within the sport. The committee, established by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, follows criticism of the Korean Football Association (KFA) for appointing Hong Myung-bo as head coach, which many believe contributed to the national team's poor performance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Hong resigned after the team finished 34th, marking one of its worst World Cup results. The committee includes former players, sports officials, and KFA leadership, with plans to review governance, youth development, and technological integration. Park and other former players have publicly criticized Hong's management, citing favoritism and poor decision-making.
Arrest warrant sought for armed rampage at Geoje beauty salon
A man in his 80s is suspected of attacking two individuals at a beauty salon in Geoje, South Gyeongsang Province, using a knife. The incident occurred around 11:26 a.m. on Thursday, resulting in non-fatal injuries to a salon worker in her 30s and a customer in his 40s. Police have requested an arrest warrant for the suspect, who reportedly told authorities he attacked the stylist due to dissatisfaction with his haircut. The suspect also claimed to have taken poison, but this was disproven by a blood test. Investigators suggest the attack was premeditated, with the suspect allegedly preparing the weapon beforehand. The relationship between the suspect and the victims remains unclear.
S. Korea to establish low-Earth orbit communications network by 2035
South Korea has announced plans to develop a low-Earth orbit satellite communications network by 2035, aiming to create a domestic equivalent of SpaceX's Starlink. This initiative includes launching between 128 and 512 satellites, costing between 4 trillion and 13.2 trillion won every five years. The project is part of broader efforts to advance the nation's space capabilities, including accelerating the first lunar landing to 2030. To support this, the government intends to form a special-purpose company with private firms to commercialize satellite data, projected to generate over $1.7 billion in revenue by 2034. Additional plans include launching a lunar communications orbiter in 2029 and an Earth-Moon scientific probe in 2031.

Cheong Wa Dae rebuts US report accusing Seoul of targeting Coupang
South Korea's presidential office has denied allegations made in a recent U.S. congressional report that accused Seoul of unfairly targeting Coupang, a major U.S.-listed e-commerce company. During a press briefing, National Security Adviser Wi Sung-lac stated that the investigation into Coupang was conducted in a non-discriminatory manner according to domestic law and due process. He criticized the report for relying heavily on Coupang's claims and failing to accurately represent South Korea's stance. The U.S. House Judiciary Committee's report claimed that South Korean regulators have been engaging in hostile regulatory actions against Coupang, including unfair enforcement and disproportionate penalties compared to local companies. The controversy stems from an investigation into a data breach at Coupang, which involved a former Chinese national employee who allegedly took a backup key. South Korean authorities estimate that over 33 million personal records were exposed, while Coupang and the suspect claim only around 3,000 records were affected.

Lee highlighted the shift from state-led space initiatives to market-driven development, citing SpaceX as an example of successful private-sector innovation. He called for increased investment and support for domestic companies and researchers to enhance South Korea's industrial competitiveness. The meeting took place near the country's southern coastal aerospace cluster, which the government aims to develop into a regional hub for space and aviation industries.
Lee touts investments to transform southeast into AI-aerospace hub
President Lee Jae Myung praised major investments by South Korean conglomerates in the southeastern region, aiming to establish it as a hub for advanced technologies like artificial intelligence and aerospace. Companies including Hanwha, Hyundai Motor, Samsung, SK, Doosan, and LG pledged a combined 312 trillion won ($204 billion) for projects ranging from satellite development and autonomous mobility to humanoid robot production and nuclear power infrastructure. The investments were highlighted as part of broader efforts to diversify economic growth beyond the Greater Seoul area, which currently dominates South Korea's economic activity. President Lee emphasized deregulation, tax incentives, and financial support for these firms, aligning with his administration's strategy to reduce regional economic disparities. Recent investment announcements by Samsung and SK hynix, along with other regional initiatives, underscore a push to decentralize economic development.
