Dam overflow leads China to suspend rescue operations in Tibet

Correio da Manhã28 August 2026 at 07:27

The overflow of a reservoir in Tibet led Chinese authorities to suspend rescue operations in the region. The retained water volume exceeded two million cubic meters, which required the interruption of relief efforts. This situation represents a significant challenge for emergency operations in the affected area. China thus faces a humanitarian and logistical crisis in Tibet, where authorities had to prioritize water management over the ongoing rescue operations at the site.

"Functional mother" or "puppet" of a voice? Everything said in the Lindsay Clancy trial

After the trial of Lindsay Clancy, accused of killing her three children in Massachusetts, the jury heard all witnesses and will now deliberate whether she has criminal responsibility. The defense argued that Clancy suffered from postpartum psychosis and was controlled by voices, describing her as a "functional mother" before the incident, while the prosecution questioned this narrative, suggesting she was a "puppet" of a voice without sufficient proof of severe mental illness. The case centers on determining whether Clancy acted with criminal knowledge and intent or if her mental condition exempts her from responsibility.
