A combined missile and drone attack on the Kyiv region has killed at least four people and wounded 15, regional officials have said. Three of those injured in the attack overnight into Saturday are in a critical condition, with two undergoing surgery, regional administration chief Mykola Kalashnyk said. The strikes came days after the US postponed peace talks between Russia and Ukraine scheduled for this week, citing the war in the Middle East. As US and Israeli missiles and bombs rain down on Iran, Russia has responded with words of indignation but no action to support its ally. “This easing alone by the United States could provide Russia with about 10 billion US dollars for the war,” he said.

I’m not sure when this ‘trend’ of windowless rooms started exactly, but - frankly - it must stop. Glancing out of that hotel window often provides a first glimpse of a new destination, especially if you’ve landed in darkness the evening before. However, I’ve yet to find a hotel room made better by not having a window. At a capsule hotel in Tokyo recently – essentially a glorified coffin with a TV and a curtain – I’ve never woken feeling more groggy or depressed. OK, this may have been taking things to extremes (and I certainly knew in advance what to expect, and was simply curious about a one-off ‘capsule hotel’ experience).

One brand she returns to time and again is Kiki McDonough, the Chelsea-based label also worn by her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana. Unsurprisingly, Kate has a particular fondness for the brand's colourful gemstone jewellery, and has worn no fewer than 23 pairs of its earrings over the years. However, the coveted luxury label comes with a suitably royal price tag. I've tracked down some of the best high street alternatives, including a £55 option from Revere and a £119 Swarovski design that look much more expensive than their price tags suggest.

Jamie Redknapp fumes over Arsenal penalty decision - 'An absolute disgrace'Arsenal were denied a first-half penalty during their Premier League clash with Everton on Saturday evening, despite VAR scrutinising the incident - and Jamie Redknapp was less than impressed with the verdictView Image Kai Havertz felt he should have had a penalty during Arsenal's clash with Everton (Image: Justin Setterfield/Getty Images)Jamie Redknapp lambasted VAR's decision not to award Arsenal a penalty against Everton on Saturday evening, as Kai Havertz was brought to ground by Michael Keane. ‌However, former Liverpool star Redknapp was less than impressed by the on-field decision, as well as the backing from those upstairs. How on earth have VAR took three seconds to say there's no penalty? The Premier League Match Centre also took to X to explain the decision, citing how there was "minimal" contact between the two players. A post read: "The referee’s call of no penalty to Arsenal was checked and confirmed by VAR – with the contact from Keane on Havertz deemed to be minimal."

But it's likely you're using your air fryer wrong, according to experts. 'Air fryers move hot air around inside the machine, and that heat has to escape somewhere,' Mr Roberts added. 'Most people find a convenient corner for their air fryer and it never moves again,' he added. Earlier this year, researchers from the University of Birmingham found that cooking food in an air fryer produces far fewer air pollution particles than other forms of frying. Researchers previously revealed that cooking chicken breast in the air fryer produced fewer air pollution particles than other cooking methodsHowever, there's an important caveat – this is only the case if your air fryer is clean.

A missile has struck a helipad inside the US Embassy in Baghdad as Donald Trump's war on Iran heads into its third week. Plumes of smoke were seen above the US embassy in the Iraqi capital earlier amid reports a projectile had struck the government building.

This year’s visit has been described by the Taoiseach’s office as very special as the US celebrates 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Mr Martin celebrated Irish athletes, as well as making a brief stop-off at the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art made famous by the Rocky films. On Sunday, Mr Martin will attend the Philadelphia St Patrick’s Day Parade and lay a wreath at the statue of Commodore John Barry. The visit to Philadelphia comes at the start of the Taoiseach’s annual visit to the United States for St Patrick’s Day. The Irish Government said the discussions will cover a range of issues, including the “deep ties” between the two countries.
