RAF fighter jets scrambled to threat of Russian drones on Nato border

TwoRAF jetswere scrambled in the early hours of Saturday morning to respond to the threat ofRussian droneson the Nato border.

The Romanian defence ministry said it recovered drone fragments in the southeastern city of Galati after an overnight Russian attack on neighbouringUkraine, with an electricity ​pole and a household annex damaged.

It is understood that two Eurofighter Typhoons were scrambled from Borcea Air Base in Romania, which shares a 650-km land border with Ukraine ⁠and has seen Russian drones repeatedly breach its airspace as Moscow attacks Ukraine ports on ​the other side of the Danube river.

However, UK Ministry of Defence sources stressed that RAF Typhoons did not enter Ukrainian airspace, nor did they engage any Russian assets. The two aircraft have now returned to base.

Romanian emergency services were forced to evacuate the area where drone fragments were recovered over fears they could contain explosives. The fragments will now be disposed of in a secure location.

While drone fragments have routinely fallen on Romania, Saturday ​marked the first time property had been damaged.

"The defence ministry firmly condemns the irresponsible actions of the Russian Federation and emphasises that these represent a new challenge to regional security and stability in ​the Black Sea area," the Romanian defence ministry said in a statement.

"Such incidents demonstrate the Russian Federation's lack ​of respect for the norms of international law and endanger not only the safety of Romanian citizens, ‌but ⁠also the collective security of Nato."

It comes amid mounting tension ​along Europe's eastern flank ​in recent months ⁠after suspected Russian drones breached the airspace of several Nato states.

Romanian law allows it to shoot down drones during peacetime if lives ​or property are at risk, but it has not yet ​done so.

Overnight on Saturday, Russian forces launched more than 600 drones and 47 missiles acrossUkraine,the country’s air force said.

At least four people were killed and more than 30 wounded across Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky said, calling for “immediate and decisive action” from partners.

It comes amid fears that Vladimir Putin could make progress in his offensive in Ukraine as the world’s attention is diverted to the Middle East, with the Russian president profiting off soaring gas and oil prices caused by the Iran war.

Last month, defence secretary John Healey confirmed that the UK and allies tracked a Russian attack submarine and two spy submarines loitering over critical undersea cables in the North Atlantic for a month before they retreated.

He said Putin had sought to capitalise on the world being “distracted” by the Iran war and that he poses “the primary threat to UK security”.

Mr Healey told a press conference in Downing Street on Thursday that in the past few weeks – while many eyes were trained on the Middle East crisis – the UK, in partnership with Norway and other allies, responded to “increased Russian activity” in the Atlantic north of the UK.

Addressing the Russian president, Mr Healey said: “We see your activity over our cables and our pipelines, and you should know that any attempt to damage them will not be tolerated and will have serious consequences.”

Surprise and skepticism gave way to success, as Wrexham AFC went from losers to winners, and the club's value rocketed to nearly half a billion dollars.

Maria Sharapova Reveals Why She Was Nervous to Call Serena Williams Before Her Hall of Fame Ceremony

NEED TO KNOW

  • At the event, the tennis champion was asked about her former rivalry turned friendship with Serena Williams

  • Sharapova also confessed she was apprehensive about asking Williams to introduce her at the International Tennis Hall of Fame

Maria Sharapovaconfesses she was nervous to ask for a favor from longtime competitorSerena Williams.

Sharapova, 39, sat down with Gayle King at the Time100 Summit in New York City on Wednesday, April 22, and opened up about the dynamic between herself and Williams, 44, throughout the years.

As King, 71, briefly highlighted the pair's competitive tension over the past couple of decades, she asked why Sharapova asked Williams to introduce her at the 2025 International Tennis Hall of Fame. Sharapova immediately explained that Williams was the "first person that came to mind" for her induction ceremony.

"I had some of the toughest moments and some of the biggest victories on the court with Serena," Sharapova said. "At the end of the day, we have so much deep respect for each other, and there was no one that I wanted to see other than her up on stage."

Sharapova then noted she had to personally call Williams, and King joked, "You have her number?" The tennis champion cheekily replied, "I had her number. Since we've retired, we've gotten very close."

But, as Sharapova continued, she confessed that she first texted Williams, "because I didn't want to call her and she doesn't pick up."

"So I texted her. She calls me right away. We spoke for over an hour. We didn't even touch upon the Hall of Fame until the last 5 minutes. We talked about our careers, our lives, our children, our businesses, " Sharapova recalled. "So at the end of it I was like, 'Oh, by the way, would you induct me into the Tennis Hall of Fame?' "

As for what Williams did to prepare for the induction, Sharapova said Williams did so like a "true athlete." Sharapova said that Williams interviewed her later and brought notes.

"Nobody knew —not even my father who was sitting right next to me — before she came on stage," Sharapova said. "I wanted to be a big surprise for everyone, and I felt it in the room."

After the induction,Sharapova spoke to PEOPLEabout her and Williams' introduction and their unexpected close friendship.

"She showed up big time and she delivered a phenomenal speech," Sharapova said. "It was really thoughtful that she accepted being there. There's no one else that I thought of for this occasion, and I think she also realized how impactful it would've been ... So yeah, it was a really special moment."

Sharapova shared that their friendship flourished because of their "mutual respect" for one another's work ethic, dedication and discipline that they both had throughout their careers.

"I looked up to [Serena and Venus] so much, and then I found myself across the net from Serena when I was a teenager, playing in my first Grand Slam final to many more Grand Slams," she said. "So many years facing each other to then her accepting to induct me into the Hall of Fame was a full-circle moment."

Wednesday's NBA matchups: Magic-Pistons, Thunder-Suns are set for Game 2s

Magic Pistons Basketball

After wins and losses, they work on adjustments during practices to address problems from the previous game and attempt to predict counter moves opponents will make in the next matchup.

In the Orlando-Detroit series, coachesJamahl MosleyandJ.B. Bickerstaffare close friends who have intentionally spent time together off the court and communicated frequently for a couple decades.

Just not right now.

“We won’t talk for the rest of this series,” Mosley said.

The Mosley-led,eighth-seeded Magicupset the Bickerstaff-led,first-seeded Pistons112-101 on Sunday night.

“Friends as close as us don’t typically get to these spots, having two of 30 jobs, so it’s special from that standpoint,” Bickerstaff said. “It’s not always the easiest because you know somebody’s got to lose, somebody’s got to win, but it’s competition and you get it.”

Game 2 is Wednesday night in Detroit, where the Magic will shoot for a 2-0 lead before the series shifts to Orlando.

Later on Wednesday night, the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder will host eighth-seeded Phoenix. The defending champions will have a chance to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series after opening with a119-84 winagainst the Suns.

Bickerstaff, in his last year with the Cleveland Cavaliers, eliminated Mosley and the Magic in their last NBA playoff matchup in a Game 7 of a first-round series in 2024.

It's business, not personal.

“We’ll always be friends, through thick and thin,” Mosley said. ”But at the end of the day when we cross the lines, it’s like you’re going into an octagon or a boxing match."

The 47-year-old coaches developed their friendship as up-and-coming assistants in the NBA about 20 years ago. They also shared a connection through Bickerstaff's father, Bernie, when he and Mosley were assistants together in Cleveland during the 2013-14 season.

Bernie Bickerstaff, who won 419 NBA games as a head coach, has joined his son in Detroit this week.

“I couldn't be more fortunate to have someone who has been through all the stuff that he's been through, and will talk with you honestly and purely with no agenda,” J.B. Bickerstaff said Tuesday after his father watched the team's practice. “It's a ton of help, just having him here.”

J.B. Bickerstaff, who previously coached in Houston, Memphis and Cleveland, is in his 10th season as a head coach in the league. Mosley is in his fifth year as an NBA head coach with the Magic.

Oklahoma City’s Mark Daigneault and Phoenix’s Jordan Ott are both 41, born less than a week apart in 1985.

The similarities seem to end there.

Daigneault, the NBA’s Coach of the Year in 2024, has led the Thunder to the top seed in the Western Conference three straight years and guided them to their first NBA title last year.

"He’s just as committed to winning as we are,” Oklahoma City wing Jalen Williams said. “And he’s a basketball mind, so I think that makes everybody on the team respect him. And he’s cool to be around, too.”

Ott is in his first year as an NBA head coach and lost his playoff debut on Sunday. He said the Thunder are tough to prepare for because of their quality depth and ability to change lineups.

“They have guys ready, and they’re able to stay ready," Ott said. "It allows them to go a bunch of different ways.”

Orlando Magic at Detroit Pistons

When/Where to Watch: Game 2, 7 p.m. EDT (ESPN)

Series: Magic lead, 1-0.

Betting line: Pistons by 9 1/2.

What to Know: Orlando hasn't started a series with two wins since 2010 when it swept Charlotte and Atlanta in the first two rounds and reached the conference finals. Detroit lost an NBA-record 11th straight home playoff game in Game 1 despite Cade Cunningham scoring a playoff career-high 39 points. The Magic did not trail in the opener as their starters scored at least 16 points apiece and allowed just two Pistons to score in double figures. Detroit All-Star center Jalen Duren, a finalist for Most Improved Player, was 3 of 4 and scored only eight points against Wendell Carter. “He kept Duren, basically, out of the game,” Magic guard Anthony Black said Tuesday.

Phoenix Suns at Oklahoma City Thunder

When/Where to Watch: Game 2, 9 p.m. EDT (ESPN)

Series: Thunder lead, 1-0.

Betting line: Thunder by 17 1/2.

What to Know: Oklahoma City scored 119 points in Game 1 despite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander making only 5 of 18 field goals. The reigning MVP and finalist to win the award again made 55.3% of his shots this season. Phoenix will attempt to keep him off the line after he made 15 of 17 free throws. Dillon Brooks was 6 of 22 and scored 18 points for the Suns, who may want to get more shots for All-Star Devin Booker after he had 23 points on 17 shots. Oklahoma City’s Chet Holmgren finished second in voting for Defensive Player of the Year behind Victor Wembanyama. The Suns shot 34.9% in the series opener.

    Los Angeles Chargers NFL Draft best prospect fit: Edge Derrick Moore, Michigan

    Per USA TODAY's Ayrton Ostly:

    The Chargers need more difference-makers on defense, especially in the pass rush, as they can't rely on Khalil Mack continuing to produce late into his 30s. It may seem uninspired to pair a former Wolverine to Jim Harbaugh's squad but Moore would be an intriguing option in Round 2 who wins with speed-to-power and an improving bag of pass rush moves.

    Los Angeles Chargers NFL Draft trade candidate: RB Kimani Vidal

    Per USA TODAY'sJack McKessy:

    Vidal proved he has what it takes to be a starting running back in the NFL with his 10-game performance as Los Angeles' starter in 2025. With Omarion Hampton set to return to his starting job after an injury-marred rookie campaign, the Chargers could look to move Vidal to a team more in need of running back help.

    South Korea tells US lawmakers it will ensure no discrimination against US tech firms

    South Korea tells US lawmakers it will ensure no discrimination against US tech firms

    Reuters

    SEOUL, April 23 (Reuters) - South Korea's government said on Thursday it would ensure no discrimination against U.S. tech companies, including ‌e-commerce firm Coupang, following a letter from U.S. lawmakers calling for ‌an end to unfair targeting of American businesses.

    South Korea's Foreign Ministry said in a statement that ​Seoul was implementing measures to ensure U.S. digital companies did not face discriminatory measures or unnecessary barriers.

    The assurance was included in a U.S.-South Korea joint fact sheet signed in November under a trade deal between the two countries, the ‌ministry said.

    The response came after ⁠a letter was sent this week by some U.S. lawmakers to South Korean Ambassador Kang Kyung-wha, demanding an immediate end ⁠to "discriminatory regulatory actions" against American businesses operating in South Korea.

    Led by the Republican Study Committee (RSC) member Michael Baumgartner, the lawmakers said: "systematic targeting of American companies such as ​Apple, Google, ​Meta, and Coupang is particularly concerning."

    South ​Korea "recently leveraged a low-sensitivity data leak ‌in November 2025 as a pretext to launch a whole-of-government assault on Coupang," they said, citing a series of actions including threats to revoke its business licences and pressuring pension funds to divest its shares in the holding company.

    "We are committed to ensuring that your government ceases its persecution of Coupang ‌and other American companies operating in South ​Korea," the letter said.

    The Korean Foreign Ministry said ​the ongoing probe into Coupang's ​data breach was proceeding under domestic law and procedures, regardless ‌of the nationality of the company.

    Coupang ​Korea, operated by ​U.S.-listed Coupang Inc., faced a public and lawmaker backlash in South Korea over a data breach that affected more than 30 million customers.

    On Wednesday, ​the ministry said the ‌issues regarding Coupang should not be linked to ongoing security negotiations ​with Washington, which include South Korea's plan to build nuclear-powered submarines.
