Donald Trump's lawyers pushed on Monday to transfer to federal court the case in which he was convicted in a New York state court on charges involving covering up hush money paid to a porn star, a move that would give him the ability to end the prosecution if he regains the presidency.

His lawyers renewed the request in a brief filed with the Manhattan-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals as they appealed U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein's Sept. 3 ruling rejecting the shift to federal court. Trump was convicted in May of 34 felony counts of falsifying documents.

In their brief, Trump's lawyers cited the US&nbsp;Supreme Court's July 1 decision that former presidents cannot be prosecuted for official actions taken in office. In the hush money case, they said, jurors had improperly seen evidence of Trump's official acts as president.

His lawyers said the state charges intruded on the authority of the presidency under the US&nbsp;Constitution.

Trump is the Republican candidate facing Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris in the Nov. 5 election. If he wins, he could seek to pardon himself for any federal crime or have his new Justice Department leadership dismiss any criminal cases pending against him in federal court. State criminal charges are beyond the reach of presidential pardon authority or Justice Department action.

Under U.S. law, civil or criminal cases pursued against federal officials may be moved to federal court if they relate to do their duties in office.

Trump's lawyers Todd Blanche and Emil Bove wrote that prosecutors' "use of official-acts evidence in grand jury proceedings and at trial violated the Constitution and threatens the ability of all future Presidents to fulfill that role."

Trump was convicted by a jury in May of falsifying business records to cover up a payment of $130,000 made by his former lawyer Michael Cohen to adult film actress Stormy Daniels for her silence before the 2016 election about a sexual encounter she has said she had with Trump a decade earlier. The case was brought by the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, a Democrat.

The Kremlin on Tuesday (Oct 15) accused Western countries of&nbsp;"blatant attempts" to sway&nbsp;the election campaign in the Caucasus country of Georgia. Russia&nbsp;accused the West of influencing the country's parliamentary elections which are set to be held later this month.&nbsp;

Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, "We see blatant attempts by Western countries to exert pressure on the current Georgian authorities and to exert direct, unveiled influence on the electoral campaign."

"We do not interfere in the internal affairs of Georgia in any way, and we have no plans to do so," he stressed.

"Georgia is our neighbor. You know all our complications in bilateral relations, which at the same time do not hinder the development of humanitarian ties through the line of societies, peoples of two countries," Peskov added. &nbsp;

Earlier in September, Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) accused the United States&nbsp;of weaponising European election observers to discredit Georgia's elections and trigger pro-Western street demonstrations.&nbsp;

“The US State Department intends to use a new tool to interfere in Georgia’s parliamentary elections on Oct. 26 in order to prevent the victory of Georgian Dream,” the SVR said in a statement last month.&nbsp;

They further claimed that the American&nbsp;authorities were conspiring with the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s (OSCE) democratic institutions division ODIHR to declare Georgia’s upcoming elections unfree and unfair.

Kremlin accuses West of swaying Georgia election campaign by 'blatant attempts'

A Russian man was found alive after drifting for two months on an inflatable boat while another man and a teenage boy died, prosecutors said Tuesday (Oct 15).

The two men and a 15-year-old set off to the Island of Sakhalin from the far eastern Khabarovsk region on August 9, transport prosecutors said.

"After a time, communication with them was lost, their boat's location remained unknown," they said.

"On October 14 around 10:00 pm, the boat was discovered as it passed a fishing boat... Two people died, one remained alive, he is receiving medical help," prosecutors said.

The dinghy was found in the Sea of Okhotsk, around 1,000 kilometres (670 miles) from its starting point.&nbsp;

Prosecutors published a video showing the bearded survivor in a life jacket shouting at the fishermen: "I don't have much strength" but managing to catch a rope.

The survivor was named by the RIA Novosti news agency as Mikhail Pichugin, while his brother Sergei, 49, and nephew Ilya, 15, died. Their bodies were on the boat.

Russian rescuers had mounted a search using helicopters and a plane for the men a few days after they disappeared, suspecting the boat had been carried by currents towards Kamchatka.&nbsp;

Alexei Arykov, the owner of the fishing boat that found the survivor said he was "in a serious condition, thin, but conscious," RIA Novosti reported.

The boat docked around 0830 GMT in the far eastern city of Magadan and the survivor was carried off on a stretcher, the news agency reported.

The survivor's wife Yekaterina told RIA Novosti: "It's a kind of miracle", adding that the men had taken enough food and water to last only two weeks.&nbsp;

She said her husband's weight could have helped save him, as "he weighed around 100 kilograms" (220 pounds). Russian television reported he lost 50 kilograms.

The brothers were from Ulan-Ude in Siberia but Mikhail Pichugin was working on Sakhalin as a driver.&nbsp;

He had invited his brother and nephew to visit and they planned a sea trip to see whales, Komsomolskaya Pravda tabloid reported, citing relatives.

An expert questioned by RIA Novosti recalled that in 1960, four Soviet soldiers survived 49 days adrift on a small boat in the Pacific Ocean that was found by the US aircraft carrier Kearsarge.

Millionaire Bryan Johnson, who is known for his age-reversing experiments, recently took to social media to brag about his “super clean” plasma.&nbsp;

The millionaire went through a total plasma exchange procedure after which he said that the lab technician was not able to throw it away.

Bryan Johnson&nbsp;has claimed to have decreased his epigenetic age by going through a comprehensive regimen which he called Project Blueprint.

Under this regimen, Johnson&nbsp;has been following a strict exercise and diet regimen and has spent more than $2 million every year to undergo various experimental and conventional treatments like total plasma exchange (TPE).

<h2>What is total plasma exchange?</h2>

Total plasma exchange or TPE is a medical procedure which is related to anti-aging treatments and regenerative medicine.

In this, the plasma of the patient is replaced either with donor plasma or a substitute fluid. Johnson replaced his plasma&nbsp;with albumin.

Taking to social media platform X, he said, “TPE removes all of my body’s plasma and replaces it with Albumin. The therapy objectives are to remove toxins from my body. The evidence is emergent."

Johnson said that a staffer called his plasma the “cleanest” he had seen in the last nine years he worked at the clinic.

“The operator, who’s been doing TPE for 9 years, said my plasma is the cleanest he’s ever seen. By far. He couldn’t get over it. When we finished, he couldn’t bring himself to throw it away. He was imagining all the good that it could do in the world,” Johnson wrote on X.

The millionaire said that his plasma is “liquid gold” and when a litre of it was added to his father's body, his ageing dropped by 25 years.

Johnson also posted pictures of himself carrying a bag with a straw-coloured liquid.

He has even used his 17-year-old son's plasma to replace his plasma last time. That was the “world's first multigenerational plasma exchange” carried out between a father and a son, whom he used to call “blood boy”.

Israel is facing a shortage of rocket and missile interceptors as its air defence apparatus feels the heat of yearlong war in Gaza and Lebanon, according to a report in FT.&nbsp; As the conflict with Iran escalates, Tel Aviv stares at a shortage of munitions that could potentially put the lives of 10 million Israelis&nbsp;at risk.&nbsp;

The report, citing experts and former military officials, stated that if Iran was to launch an all-out war right now, Israel would be stretched thin in the air defence department.&nbsp;

“Israel’s munitions issue is serious.&nbsp;If Iran responds to an Israel attack, and Hezbollah joins in too, Israel’s air defences will be stretched," Dana Stroul, an ex-US defence official, was quoted as saying.&nbsp;

<h2>What is Israel's defence system?</h2>

Currently, Israel employs a multi-layered air-defence system that includes the ever-reliable Iron Dome, used to shoot short-range missiles; David's Sling, used to intercept medium-range missiles and the Arrow system, designed to handle long-range ballistic missiles.&nbsp;

When working in tandem, Israel's air defence system is arguably the best in the world. However, the cost of employing such a sophisticated system runs irrationally high as well. With the enemies at the door and firing projectiles almost every day for a year, the supply chain has been unable to keep up, the report stated.&nbsp;

<h2>Projectiles fired at Israel</h2>

Since the October 7 attack last year, Gaza-based militant outfit, Hamas, has launched over 20,000 rockets and missiles. Meanwhile, Iran has unleashed two heavy missile attacks involving hundreds of ballistic missiles in April and October - pushing Israel to the very edge of its capabilities.&nbsp;

Despite the onslaught,&nbsp;ex-IDF general Assaf Orion believes that Israel has not been tested fully as Hezbollah is yet to unleash its full capability.&nbsp;

“It has only been firing at around a tenth of its estimated prewar launching capacity, a few hundred rockets a day instead of as many as 2,000,” said Orion.&nbsp;

<h2>US to Israel's rescue?</h2>

As Israel struggles, the US has promised to send the&nbsp;Terminal High Altitude Area Defence missile system (THAAD) as well as 100 troops to engage the non-state actors in the war.&nbsp;

The THAAD is a storied missile defence system known for its ability to intercept ballistic missiles. It will boost the already dominant Iron Dome missile defence system of Israel.

It is an integrated air and missile defence system built for the US Army by Lockheed Martin, which describes THAAD as a 'highly effective, combat-proven defence against short, medium and intermediate-range ballistic missile threats'.&nbsp;

With the enemies at the door and firing projectiles almost every day for a year, the supply chain has been unable to keep up, the report stated. WATCH: US To Send 'THAAD' Missile Battery To Israel Projectiles fired at Israel Since the October 7 attack last year, Gaza-based militant outfit, Hamas, has launched over 20,000 rockets and missiles. Meanwhile, Iran has unleashed two heavy missile attacks involving hundreds of ballistic missiles in April and October - pushing Israel to the very edge of its capabilities. Despite the onslaught, ex-IDF general Assaf Orion believes that Israel has not been tested fully as Hezbollah is yet to unleash its full capability. “It has only been firing at around a tenth of its estimated prewar launching capacity, a few hundred rockets a day instead of as many as 2,000,” said Orion.

As Israel struggles, the US has promised to send the Terminal High Altitude Area Defence missile system (THAAD) as well as 100 troops to engage the non-state actors in the war. The THAAD is a storied missile defence system known for its ability to intercept ballistic missiles. It will boost the already dominant Iron Dome missile defence system of Israel. It is an integrated air and missile defence system built for the US Army by Lockheed Martin, which describes THAAD as a 'highly effective, combat-proven defence against short, medium and intermediate-range ballistic missile threats'.

Chinese mother makes her little children sit on 23rd floor outdoor AC unit amid argument with husband

Conflict-ravaged Gaza appears to be facing the worst restrictions on aid since the Israel-Hams war there began over a year ago, the UN said on Tuesday, lamenting the devastating impact,&nbsp;especially, on children.

"Day after day, the situation for children becomes worse than the day before," said James Elder, spokesman for the UN children's agency UNICEF.

Vast areas of Gaza have been devastated by Israel's retaliatory assault on the territory after the October 7 Hamas attack last year that sparked the war.

And Israel has been intensifying operations in the north of the besieged Palestinian territory, where the UN has warned hundreds of thousands of people are trapped.

Despite a desperate need to increase the amount of aid going in, Elder lamented that aid access was worsening.

"August was the lowest amount of humanitarian aid that came into the Gaza Strip of any full month since the war broke out," he said, adding that there had been "several days in the last week (where) no commercial trucks whatsoever were allowed to come in".

"We see now what are probably the worst restrictions we've seen on humanitarian aid, ever."

Earlier in the year, amid warnings that the UN could declare a full-fledged famine in Gaza, Elder said there had been "a real push to have new routes and access point open".

But now, "we have seen an absolute reversal of that", he warned, adding that since May, "we've seen consistent entry points blocked".

Northern Gaza, meanwhile, "hasn't had food, any food aid at all coming in all of October", he added.

The dire lack of aid, coupled with the relentless strikes and the fact that around 85 per cent of the Gaza Strip has been hit with some form of evacuation order, has made the territory "essentially unlivable", Elder said.

A 26-year-old British man died after falling from Spain’s tallest bridge on Sunday, local authorities said on Monday (Oct 14). The man had climbed the bridge to make social media content.&nbsp;

The unidentified man was accompanied by a 24-year-old fellow British national when he fell from the Castilla-La Mancha Bridge in the central city of Talavera de la Reina. According to reports, the man attempted to climb the cable-stayed bridge without any safety equipment.

"As far as we have been able to learn, they had come to Talavera to climb the bridge and create content for social networks, which has resulted in this disastrous and sad outcome," Talavera city councillor for public security Macarena Muñoz said.

The local authorities also stated the incident happened shortly after heavy rainfall, which may have made the surface of the bridge slippery.

Muñoz also added that climbing the bridge is “totally prohibited”. The council had repeatedly warned people on many occasions that they were&nbsp;not allowed under any circumstance. However, some tourists continue to put their lives in danger for social media content, which results in such tragic happenings.

An assailant shot dead an Israeli policeman and wounded five other people near the southern city of Ashdod on Tuesday in what police called a "terrorist" attack. 
 
The gunman was killed during the attack at the Yavne interchange along the highway connecting Ashdod to Tel Aviv, the authorities said.

"A terrorist wounded five people, including a policeman who was critically injured and then died later," a police spokesman said.

The attacker had approached the main road on foot, fatally wounding the policeman before going on a shooting rampage and wounding others.
