US President Biden ‘considering’ dropping Assange charges
United States President Joe Biden says he is “considering” a request from Australia to drop the prosecution of Julian Assange.
The WikiLeaks founder has been indicted on 17 espionage charges and one charge of computer misuse over his website’s publication of classified U.S. documents relating to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars almost 15 years ago.
The Australian national was taken to Belmarsh prison in London five years ago, after being dragged out of the Ecuadorian embassy, where he stayed while fighting against being taken to the US.

The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions.

A powerful earthquake of 5.8 magnitude struck Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday, with tremors felt across the Valley. The earthquake, which occurred at 4:19 pm, had its epicenter located in the Afghanistan-Tajikistan border region. The quake’s depth was recorded at 165 kilometers. While the tremors caused widespread panic, authorities confirmed that there were no immediate reports of casualties or damage to property. Kashmir's seismic activity remains a concern, as the region is prone to earthquakes. Experts continue to stress the importance of earthquake-resistant infrastructure in this seismically active area.
