KYIV, Ukraine — A massive drone strike rattled Moscow and its suburbs overnight into Sunday, injuring several people and temporarily halting traffic at some of Russia’s busiest airports, officials reported.

LONDON — King Charles III led the nation Sunday in a two-minute silence in remembrance of fallen service personnel in central London as the Princess of Wales looked on, a further sign the royal family is slowly returning to normal at the end of a year in which two of the most popular royals were sidelined by cancer.

FORT COLLINS — After a violent outburst almost cost him everything, Avery Morrow was determined to get his life back on track. His path took a turn after an on-campus altercation in January 2023, when he assaulted a fellow male CSU student who contacted Morrow’s parked car while riding by on a longboard. For tackling and punching the student multiple times, Morrow was suspended from the team for six months and served 46 days in a work-release program last summer after being convicted of misdemeanor assault.
