Iran set to impose even harsher punishment for any contact with foreign media A woman walks next to a banner with a picture of Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, on a street in Tehran, Iran, Aug. 13, 2026. Majid Asgaripour/WANA/REUTERS Iran's parliament passed a resolution early this week that would increase punishments for Iranians who interact in any way with foreign media outlets, organizations or individuals. If the legislation is approved by higher authorities as expected, any contact with U.S. media entities, foreign embassies or institutions — whether it takes place inside or outside Iran — could land an Iranian in prison for up to two years unless they first obtain explicit written permission from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Netflix dating show featuring cast members with criminal pasts sparks backlash in Japan This picture taken on April 17, 2026, shows "Badly in Love" Season 1 participant Otoha posing at an event in Tokyo. Yuichi YAMAZAKI/AFP via Getty Images Japan's justice ministry said Friday it will cancel a collaboration with a controversial Netflix dating show featuring ex-juvenile delinquents, following backlash against what some called the glorification of crimes. Earlier this month, the ministry launched an unusual partnership with the streaming giant's "Badly in Love," releasing a poster starring its Season 2 cast members, including heavily tattooed men and women. "Badly in Love" spotlights Japan's so-called "yankii" (delinquent) subculture...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Why Dubai may be vital to the Trump administration's economic war on Iran President Trump threatened this week to wield an "unprecedented" level of economic warfare against Iran, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent vowed to "collapse" the Islamic Republic regime with the "toughest sanctions in history." But the effectiveness of a bolstered economic campaign against Iran may rest largely on one close U.S. ally in the Persian Gulf, the United Arab Emirates. The Emirati city of Dubai, the Middle East's leading financial center, has long had a reputation as a hub for opaque economic activity. For Iran in particular, the city has offered ways to skirt international sanctions and gain access to vital funds from its sale of oil to countries like...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Men from Cuba and other countries describe being deported by the U.S. to a dangerous African nation: "We cannot leave" Last year, Cuban immigrant Yasmany Moreno de Armas was working and living in Florida. He's now in the Central African Republic, after the Trump administration sent him and dozens of deportees to the deeply impoverished and conflict-ridden nation. The 31-year-old said he only learned the U.S. government was deporting him to Africa after he arrived there in late July, alongside detainees from countries across the globe, including Ecuador, Honduras, Serbia, Russia and Vietnam.

European wildfires expose, detonate buried bombs and mines from past wars Smoke rises from a field scorched by a wildfire near Waimes, Belgium, Aug. 17, 2026. Marius Burgelman/AP The wildfires burning across Europe this summer have exposed a potentially deadly threat lurking beneath the blackened landscape: rusty bombs and mines from World War I and II that threaten crews responding to the flames. Some of the weapons have exploded in the intense heat. Blasts have been reported in France, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, where a bomb-disposal team was dispatched to check a forest threatened by flames near a site of fierce fighting in the Limburg province in 1944.

So-called "nudify apps" use AI-generated software to turn photographs of people wearing clothing into naked or pornographic images with just a few swipes on a screen. Artificial intelligence has enabled the rapid rise of such tools, capable of digitally manipulating photos with little effort.

Nearly 25% of U.S. workers are "functionally unemployed," economic analysis finds The U.S. job market is less robust than it looks, according to a new analysis. The nation's unemployment rate fell to 4.1% in July, well within the range economists consider healthy. Yet that measure, which reflects the percentage of people over the age of 16 who don't have a job and who are looking for work, is an imprecise metric that fails to offer a full picture of the health of the job sector, according to Gene Ludwig, chairman of the Ludwig Institute for Shared Economic Prosperity (LISEP).

Chris Ratcliffe/Bloomberg/Getty Residents of the small industrial town of Slough, just west of London, told CBS News the soaring temperatures have been difficult to bear this year as Britain records its hottest summer ever.

Its oldest members will turn 62 next year, the earliest age at which people can claim Social Security benefits, with many Americans having too little saved to stop working even as the program faces its own funding crisis. Chris Branaman, 53, jokes that his retirement will be spent as a Walmart greeter. "That's my funny way of saying I will likely be working in retirement," said Branaman of Bay City, Michigan, who works in IT and says he has about $100,000 saved in his 401(k) plan. He doesn't expect that will be enough to fund his retirement, even if he's able to put more money away over the next decade. Branaman...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Due to the way Watson's contract is structured, the Browns will almost certainly release him in March, and that just adds another bizarre layer to the team's decision to hand him the starting QB job.

The practice of cutting fins off live sharks and throwing the carcasses back into the sea is banned in much of the Pacific Ocean, but persists due to demand in East and Southeast Asia. The Chinese ship was among four vessels detained in a surveillance crackdown by 11 Pacific island nations between Aug. 3 to Aug. 14, assisted by the U.S. Coast Guard in some areas and an Australian military aircraft.

Canada's tit-for-tat tariffs of up to 50% on $20 billion worth of American goods announced Tuesday are a dollar-for-dollar retaliation against the Trump administration's 50% tariffs on Canadian products – the latest volley in a widening trade war. Chow said around 5,000 jobs in Toronto's textile, clothing and leather manufacturing industries could be affected.

Lowell told White House counsel David Warrington that the claims against Cook are "unfounded and untrue."

By comparison, 47% of Gen X workers — people born between 1965 and 1980 — were high on AI.

"We've sprinkled in AI and now these tips rise to the top and we can get them out to the field to action," Raia said. Violent...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

That means even the most headline-grabbing deadline additions are prone to being disappointments across those limited samples.

This paves the way for the long-sought return of "Portrait of a Lady" to Maril von Saher, the sole surviving heir of art dealer Jacques Goudstikker.

Therefore, who cares about what happens overseas?'" said Bush, who wasn't yet eight months into his first term when the attacks occurred.

She made the historic first call from a hijacked plane on 9/11. 25 years later, her family met the woman who answered. In Cary, North Carolina, Vanessa Minter was among the first people on the ground to learn about the terror unfolding in the air on Sept. 11, 2001. Minter, an American Airlines reservations agent, was on the other end of a phone call with flight attendant Betty Ong, who was sitting in the back galley of hijacked American Airlines Flight 11, which had departed Boston for Los Angeles. "She said, 'I think we're being hijacked,'" Minter recalled in an interview with "CBS Mornings." Minter said she knew the threat was real from the tone of Ong's voice. "I had to ask myself, could I have done that? Because she was literally a pillar. She knew what she was doing. She knew what information we needed, and she was all business," Minter...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

How would consumers feel a U.S. ban on Canadian booze and other products? Americans will see fewer Canadian brands on the shelf if a planned U.S. ban takes effect later this month. But one Canadian whiskey maker — Crown Royal — has positioned itself to escape the import restrictions the Trump administration has threatened to impose. President Trump on Tuesday announced the bans on Canadian exports of alcoholic beverages, dairy products and motorcycles after Canada imposed counter-tariffs on roughly $20 billion in U.S. goods. The ban is scheduled to take effect Sept. 29. While tariffs take time to work their way through supply chains and trickle down to consumers, a ban would be felt more immediately because the restricted Canadian products...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

How lower-paid workers are getting their biggest pay raise in years Although overall pay growth for U.S. workers has slowed, in July one group saw their fastest wage growth in more than three years — by jumping ship and changing jobs, according to the Bank of America Institute. Job switchers receiving larger pay hikes were mostly lower-paid, hourly workers, the research firm said in a recent report. In July, the three-month moving average wage increase for job changers hit a three-year high of 12.5%, according to the report. Pay bumps for switching jobs remain below pandemic levels, the firm notes. Still, economists say they're encouraged by the acceleration in wage growth among lower-paid workers.

The investment advisory firm's "best guess" is that the AI bubble will begin to burst in 2027.

Americans' incomes hit a record high in 2025. Now for the bad news. American households earned a record median income of $87,460 last year, according to new Census Bureau data. The catch? That figure is only slightly above the previous peak set in 2019. Adjusting for inflation, that means the typical household has gained little economic ground in six years marked by pandemic upheaval and surging consumer prices. In 2019, households had a median income of $85,320, a level that wasn't surpassed until 2025, the Census said on Tuesday.

An analysis by the credit union found that car ownership costs have risen 50% since 2020. The main reason isn't pricier fuel, but rather higher repair costs, which have surged 70% in the last five years, according to Long.

America has more millionaires than you think. Here's how most of them got rich. The richest person in your town probably isn't a technology entrepreneur or a hedge fund manager. More likely, it's the dentist who runs six offices or the HVAC contractor whose trucks you see everywhere, according to economists Owen Zidar and Eric Zwick. These "stealthy wealthy," as the duo describes them in their new book, "The Everywhere Millionaire," typically get rich the old-fashioned way — through hard work over many years. And there are plenty of them in the U.S., with roughly 5 million households worth at least $5 million and holding combined wealth exceeding 13 times that of the Forbes 400, their research shows. The findings, based on the economists' deep...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Late Princess Diana's brother claims King Charles told him, "we'll forget her soon enough" before funeral Prince Charles and Diana, Princess of Wales, are seen at a fashion show at the Cologne Museum of Art in Cologne, Germany, in a Nov. 11, 1987, file photo taken during a Royal Tour of Germany. David Levenson/Getty Nearly 30 years after Princess Diana died in a car crash in Paris, her brother is making new claims about the way he says she was mistreated by Britain's royal family — even as they planned her funeral. Buckingham Palace is suggesting he got it wrong, with his recollections clouded by grief. "I felt it my duty to lay out the true story of Diana in one book," Charles Spencer, Diana's younger brother, told CBS News. He will outline his new claims in an exclusive interview on "CBS Sunday Morning" this...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

I slept in the room where Lizzie Borden's stepmother was murdered. Here's what I discovered. You can't get much closer to a murder case than actually sleeping at the crime scene in the very bedroom where the crime occurred. That's exactly what "48 Hours" did in the summer of 2019. A brave team of "48 Hours" producers and I decided to take a trip to Fall River, Massachusetts, to spend the night in the house where, on August 4, 1892, 70-year-old Andrew Borden and his wife, 64-year-old Abby Borden, were found hacked to death. The prime suspect in the murders: Andrew's 32-year-old daughter, Lizzie Borden. It's easy to understand why Lizzie became the main suspect. She was at home at the time of the murders, which took place in the middle of...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

A lifeless attack and a sudden drought on set pieces exposed major flaws for the Gunners as Fabian Hurzeler's squad ended their perfect start with an emphatic 3-0 rout  Getty Images Perfect, no more. Arsenal were one of the only teams in a top-five league to win all of their matches so far this season, until meeting their end in an away trip to face Brighton, where they lost 3-0. The Seagulls showed why they're currently the highest-scoring team in the Premier League, jumping out to a 2-0 lead by half, and Arsenal didn't have an answer to get back into the match.

Increased ICE enforcement in 2025 hurt local employment, analysis finds Employment fell last year in U.S. cities where Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrests surged the most, according to a recent study. In cities where ICE arrests increased fastest in 2025, employment fell 0.4% below its expected trajectory both immediately after those detentions and for up to one year after a metro area was targeted, researchers with the Brookings Institution said in the report. On average, each arrest in cities where ICE's presence significantly increased was associated with four lost jobs, the nonpartisan think tank said. "We found that employment fell in the cities where ICE activity surged, and not just among immigrants, but there were broader...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Charles Spencer's striking claims about the royal fallout following Princess Diana's death Charles Spencer is testing one of the lingering questions of our time: can the world ever get enough of his sister, Diana, Princess of Wales? It turns out the controversy surrounding her life has not faded nearly 30 years after her tragic death. In fact, Spencer's new book, "Swan Song: Diana, My Sister" (to be published Tuesday by Penguin Press), has pulled the scabs off some old wounds, especially when he recounts an unsettling conversion he says he had with Diana's ex-husband – now King Charles – shortly after she died: "He said about Diana, 'We'll forget her soon enough.' And he said it, I can't really recreate it, but it was said with a bit of a...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |
