Elon Musk has offered a glimpse of his flying-car vision as Tesla showcased its redesigned Roadster performing a series of gravity-defying manoeuvres at a SpaceX facility in McGregor, Texas, on October 15. The electric sports car drove up a specially designed curved ramp, continued upside down, briefly flew through the air and landed safely. Musk shared the demonstration on X, writing, “Turns out the future does have flying cars.” The next-generation Roadster features SpaceX-developed cold-gas thrusters designed to enable extraordinary movements. However, the demonstration took place under controlled conditions, and the technology is not approved for airborne operation on public roads. First unveiled in 2017, the long-delayed electric supercar is now reportedly targeting production in 2028.

White House press secretary Katie Zacharia has admitted that she never passed a bar exam, following scrutiny over her legal credentials and earlier remarks suggesting she had qualified in China. In an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity on Thursday, Zacharia confirmed she had not passed the exam and had not taken it a second time.
The controversy erupted after Zacharia, who joined the White House on Monday, faced questions about describing herself as a lawyer and her previous claims of practising international transaction law. During an exchange with reporters earlier this week, she referred to moving to China when asked about her bar qualification, but it remains unclear which examination, if any, she took.
Zacharia earned her law degree from Pepperdine University in 2011 and has listed experience at Beijing-based Zhong Lun Law Firm and as general counsel for the activist group Fix California. The State Bar of California told CNN it had no record of her being licensed to practise law under either her current or maiden name. However, it said confidentiality rules prevent it from confirming whether an individual took the bar exam. The questions surrounding her credentials have intensified scrutiny of the new White House spokesperson’s professional background.

France has begun deploying military assets, including troops, radar systems and defence systems, in Saudi Arabia as Houthi attacks raise concerns over the kingdom’s energy infrastructure and global oil supplies. French Foreign Minister Pascal Confavreux confirmed that the deployment is under way, following President Emmanuel Macron’s announcement of support for Saudi Arabia’s energy infrastructure.
The deployment is aimed at protecting Yanbu, a key Red Sea port and a crucial hub for Saudi oil exports. The kingdom’s East-West pipeline allows crude oil to reach global markets while bypassing the Strait of Hormuz, making it particularly important amid the ongoing Iran war. Recent attacks on the Yasref refinery and other energy infrastructure have heightened concerns over fuel supplies and market stability. France has maintained that its military support is intended to protect critical infrastructure and does not mean it is joining the conflict.

US President Donald Trump has renewed his criticism of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, calling him “not a good guy to deal with” and claiming he is harder to negotiate with than Russian President Vladimir Putin. In an interview with Newsmax, Trump alleged that Zelensky was unwilling to reach a settlement to end the Russia-Ukraine war, despite publicly expressing a desire for peace. Trump also criticised Ukraine’s renewed strikes on Russian oil refineries, calling them a “disgrace”, and said he believed the conflict should end soon. His remarks come amid strained ties between Washington and Kyiv, as Zelensky has criticised Trump’s approach to Moscow and argued that Russia continues to target Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

AI is expanding rapidly. But who is accounting for its environmental cost?

AI's environmental footprint goes beyond electricity consumption, water usage and carbon emissions. The emerging concern over heat islands adds another question to the debate: How should data centres be designed, cooled and located to minimise their impact on surrounding communities?
