A man who stabbed a nine-year-old boy in the face and hands has been given an indefinite hospital order. The young boy was walking home with his older brother in Peterborough on May 8 last year when Faisal Khan, 26, began following him. Khan overtook the pair before turning back and wielding a knife, grabbing the child and stabbing him about 15 times. The shocking attack continued until neighbours rushed out of their houses to help save him. Khan then fled from the scene and discarded a bloodied knife on a nearby driveway. He was arrested by police but they deemed him not fit to be interviewed. The boy survived but was left with life-changing injuries and permanent scarring. On Friday, Khan was sent to hospital for indefinite treatment instead of prison after he previously admitted attempted murder.

A former civil servant publicly accusing a Prime Minister of lying is a rare event, but Baron McDonald of Salford is unlikely to have had any pangs of guilt about calling out the man who effectively ended his career . During his time as Boris Johnson’s Permanent Under-Secretary at the Foreign Office, Lord McDonald - or Sir Simon, as he was then - was suspected by Mr Johnson of running a spying operation and orchestrating damaging leaks about the then foreign secretary. Mr Johnson believed that media stories accusing him of being lazy and failing to attend properly to his red boxes of ministerial papers were being briefed by Lord McDonald’s department. When the Foreign Office merged with the Department for International Development , Mr Johnson, by then Prime Minister, saw to it that Lord McDonald was squeezed out.

Germany 's vice chancellor said Thursday he suspects that Russia may not resume natural gas deliveries to Europe through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline after planned maintenance work in July, complicating the outlook for this winter. Russia reduced gas flows to Germany, Italy, Austria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia this month, just as European Union countries scramble to refill storage facilities with the fuel used to generate electricity, power industry and heat homes in the winter. Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom has blamed a technical problem for the reduction in gas flowing through Nord Stream 1, which runs under the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany. The company said equipment being refurbished in Canada was stuck there because of Western sanctions over Russia's invasion of Ukraine . German leaders have rejected that explanation and called the reductions a political move. Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck, who is also Germany’s economy and climate … [Read more...] about Germany sees possible Russian ‘blockade’ of key gas pipeline
