Joelinton unlikely to play again this season – Howe

Due to a knee injury, midfielder Joelinton is unlikely to play again this season, according to Newcastle manager Eddie Howe.

His absence could be a major blow to Newcastle’s quest for Champions League football with only four games left.

The Magpies are currently third in the Premier League table, just two points clear of Nottingham Forest, who is sixth.

Joelinton, 28, said he has returned to Brazil after missing last week’s 3-0 victory over Ipswich.

He was taken to Brazil for a period of rest, according to the expert opinion, which was that it wasn’t serious.

We’ll see if we can get him back before the season’s conclusion, but it’s unlikely to be so.

Drones hit ‘Freedom Flotilla’ Gaza aid ship in international waters

According to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), the organization that organized the mission, drones have struck a ship carrying aid to Gaza in an effort to break Israel’s blockade in international waters off Malta.

The vessel was the target of two drone strikes while traveling to Gaza, according to a statement released on Friday by the FFC. The vessel is now 14 nautical miles (25 kilometers) away from Malta. The ship had been attempting to transport aid to the besieged town where aid organizations warn residents are struggling to survive after Israel imposed a two-month total blockade.

An unarmed civilian vessel’s front was attacked twice by armed drones, which set off a fire and caused a significant hull break, according to the group.

Israel was not directly accused of carrying out the attack, according to the statement.

However, it did say that “Israeli ambassadors must be summoned and respond to violations of international law, including the ongoing blockade and the bombing of our civilian vessel in international waters.”

Israeli drone strikes have not received any comments.

The Conscience attack occurred on Friday morning at 12:23 a.m. local time (10:23 GMT) and caused a fire to the ship’s engine, according to FFC official Nicole Jenes.

30 Turkish and Azeri activists were frantically trying to save the ship from the strike in an effort to keep it afloat, she continued.

According to the group’s statement, “a vessel from Southern Cyprus” was dispatched after receiving SOS calls.

Later on Friday, the Maltese government announced in a statement that the ship’s fire had been contained and that authorities were looking into the situation. What has happened to the activists and whether the authorities had actually intervened to put the fire out?

Because there was no communication with the crew, Jenes, who is currently stationed in Malta, claimed the group was unaware of the situation on board the ship.

They were reportedly hiding in the ship’s rooms at night because they were afraid of the drones, and we eventually lost contact with them.

On the verge of total collapse

The FFC, which was founded last year by peace activists from various nations, tries to defy Israel’s blockade of Gaza by using a converted trawler.

Israel halted humanitarian aid two months ago just before it resurrected its conflict with Hamas, which has ravaged the Palestinian enclave and claimed more than 50 000 lives.

Jenes emphasized that the FFC is urging the world to turn its attention to the blockade and that this attack is an extension of the genocide that is occurring in Gaza.

In a report released on Friday, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) stated that Gaza’s humanitarian response is “on the verge of total collapse.”

Ruth Langsford’s ‘horrible’ excuse for her late appearance on QVC has been made public. Just two weeks after her mother slipped ill, the 65-year-old TV star had a nasty stomach bug.

“I’ve got a horrible tummy bug so unfortunately can’t do my show @qvcuk tonight,” she told her fans in an Instagram Story yesterday. “Thankfully, the wonderful @melissahardystyle is stepping in for me so I hope you can join her… some lovely new pieces launching! Thanks Melissa!”

The Loose Women star’s mother, Joan, has also been grappling with a ‘horrible chest infection’ these past few weeks. In a separate update, Ruth recently said the 94-year-old wasn’t quite well enough to ‘come out yet’, but hoped she would recover very soon.

Ruth thanked you last month for your kind words for my mother. “I’m hoping she’ll be back dancing in my kitchen very soon, but she’s not quite well enough to come out yet.” She’s enjoying lots of cuddles with Nurse Maggie in the interim”!

Sadly, Joan has recently experienced a number of health issues. One year after breaking her hip, she fractured her pelvis in December.

While the family was relieved to learn that she wouldn’t need surgery, Joan was required to stay in the hospital to recover. “No dancing in my kitchen peeling the veg for my darling Mum this Christmas… she’s had a fall and fractured her pelvis,” Ruth said in December.

Without prior authorization, content cannot be displayed.

She’s okay, I suppose, and I’m grateful that no surgery is necessary, but she still needs rest and recuperation right now. Although she’s currently in the hospital, I’m hoping to see her soon. She fell and broke her hip at this time last year, but she is now recovering well.

Ruth said the experience had a significant impact on her outlook on life, especially considering how her mother missed out on Christmas traditions last year. She’s a very strong woman, she said, and I’m confident she’ll recover from it as well.

It “puts life and what’s important in perspective,” he says. Nurses at Chertsey’s St. Peter’s Hospital and Woking Community Hospital treated Joan.

By January, she and Ruth and her dog, Maggie, were both recovering from her illness. She is recovering superbly after breaking her pelvis in December, Ruth later added.

“… Charging like a good ‘un once more on her walker! Hope when I turn 94, she will have her grit and drive! LEGEND. “

UK Comedian Russell Brand Arrives At Court To Face Rape Charges

Russell Brand, a British comedian and actor, was detained on Friday in central London on suspicion of five counts of rape and other sexual offence.

Brand, 49, was charged last month after establishing himself as the husband of pop star Katy Perry with his risky comedy routines.

The celebrity, who was seated in front of Westminster Magistrates’ Court for his first court hearing, did not speak as he fought through a crowd of reporters and onlookers while casually dressed in a dark shirt with gold-framed sunglasses and a dark shirt.

Brand is alleged to currently reside in the United States and is facing two counts of rape, two of sexual assault, and one of indecent assault.

Brand denied all the alleged crimes and expressed his gratitude for the “opportunity” to defend himself in a video response on X after being charged last month.

Before I lived in the light of the Lord, I was a fool. I was an imbecile, sex addict, and drug addict before becoming an addict. He claimed in the video that he had never engaged in any non-consensual behavior.

The allegations that four women were involved in crimes between 1999 and 2005 are the subject of the charges.

Following a police investigation into allegations following the broadcast of a Channel 4 documentary in September 2023, the prosecution charged him.

The investigation is still ongoing, according to London’s Metropolitan Police, and they urged “anyone who has been affected by this case, or anyone with any information” to contact officers.

Millions of online fans

In addition to the sexual assault and oral rape of a woman in 2004 in the Westminster area of central London, Brand is accused of raping a woman in 1999 in the Bournemouth area of England’s south coast.

He is also accused of sexually assaulting another woman between 2004 and 2005, both of which are alleged to have occurred in Westminster.

As a teenager in Essex, east of London, Brand began his stand-up career in 1975 as a child of working-class parents.

He first appeared on stage as a provocative, frequently wry comedian before becoming a Hollywood star, then an online conspiracy theorist and anti-establishment guru with millions of followers.

He has almost seven million YouTube subscribers, ten thousand on X, and 4.8 million on Instagram.

He hosted a radio program on the BBC Radio 2 between 2006 and 2008, but he abruptly stopped after playing a sexually explicit voicemail for Andrew Sachs, the actor who plays the “Fawlty Towers” actor, for his granddaughter.

He also hosted a “Big Brother” spin-off show for a number of years, wrote columns for the liberal Guardian newspaper, and wrote two autobiographies.

Between 2010 and 2012, Brand and US actor Perry were married for 14 months.

He now has three children with Laura Gallacher, an author and illustrator.

Adam Collard reveals terrifying moment he was in ‘unbearable pain’ as Laura Woods called 999

After being left “biting and screaming into a pillow” in “uncontrollable” pain before losing all feeling in his leg, Love Island star Adam Collard was taken to a hospital and underwent surgery.

As a result of his partner Laura Woods’ “uncontrollable pain,” Adam Collard revealed the moment he was forced to call an ambulance.

The former Love Island star, 29, revealed yesterday he had been hospitalised and had back surgery. Adam shared photos of himself dressed in a hospital gown and laying in a hospital bed.

Adam, the couple’s fiancée Laura gave birth to their first child in January, has revealed more about the circumstances that led to him eventually leaving in “unacceptable pain” and “biting and screaming into a pillow” as his wife-to-be dialed 999.

In a series of lengthy Instagram Story posts, Adam explained how he had began experiencing a ‘tweak’ before it descended into ‘another level of pain and discomfort’. After seeking help from physios and osteopaths, he was told the pain was “probably a bit a bit “discy” and was also causing me to have sciatica”.

Adam was given a strategy to “back to basics,” eliminate stress, strengthen weak points, and take painkillers to lessen inflammation. He explained that the plan involved a “yo-yo of improving a little bit, then go backwards again and be in excruciating pain.” The former reality star “absolutely followed the rehabilitation plan,” leaving no stone unturned.

Adam remarked on how persistent the pain was, “To the point where I couldn’t sit in a chair without pain.” It either sat flat or sat. Driving the car was a good 9/10 pain, and Leo’s in-bed tingling was unbearable because of the lumbar spine’s slump position. Not ideal for a mother with a newborn… which both physically and mentally affected me.

He was given painkillers to “help the pain and knock me out,” but it meant he had to be unable to look after his son Leo in the evenings and would be in agonizing pain once more if he “sip” taking them.

After that, Adam explained that after doing extensive research, we decided to push for spinal injections and nerve root blockers to try to relieve me in some way because it eventually became difficult for me to put on my own socks while I was still trying to work out in the gym.

On the third day of taking the jabs, he claimed they were “amazing” and that he had made “astonishing progress.” I wrote a long-term plan for the next six months on how to train around this and build back up, Adam added. “After two weeks of serious profanity and being super content, I was writing a long term plan for the next six months. Strength, a restricted lowerbody, pilates, and core

However, sadly, one day, he was left in agonizing pain, forcing Laura, 37, to call for assistance. After working for 30 minutes, Adam explained, “I was driving home last Wednesday and by the time I was home I could barely walk inside.” After an hour, I lost the sensation in my right leg, which extended to my toes, making it impossible for me to bear. I was biting and screaming into my pillow in pain. I am unable to raise it from the hip. which made Laura need to call an ambulance because it was frightening.

After speaking with my specialist who administered my original spinal injections, he returned me for an MRI to examine the disc’s disc differences from a month prior. My right leg no longer feels like I can move because the disc was ruptured, almost completely compressing the siatic nerve.

To shave the discs down and release the nerve, we then decided to have a Lumbar Decompression and Discectomy procedure. Adam continued, “Surgery went well, I’ve already got the feeling back in my leg which is great now it’s just sore from the wound on my back.”

My surgeon claimed that after cutting in, he realized the discs were “very bad.” One of them had cracked, causing a push-in to my sciatic nerve. The real work begins now, with a slow buildup, full recovery, and being diligent about my training for the next 12 months, and possibly forever, in some cases.

He then thanked those who had supported him in his message. Thank you to my friends and family, my friends, and all of you for your contributions over the past few months, Adam wrote in a letter.

At the end of his post, Adamant to warn against letting the medical setback take hold, defiantly declared, “Now it’s Comeback SZN..”
