19 Sept 19:47 Key points summarised by AI

Hunter Biden confirmed his father, former President Joe Biden's, prostate cancer has further metastasized, spreading deeper into his bones despite ongoing treatment.
Joe Biden was initially diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that had spread to his bones in May 2025, following his presidency.
Despite the painful and debilitating nature of the disease, Hunter highlighted his father's unwavering dedication and belief in the country.
Concerns over his health, exacerbated by a poor debate performance, ultimately led to Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race.

Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests

Yesterday 12:56 Key points summarised by AI

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
