Coercive control is domestic abuse without the physical scars. When the law came into force a decade ago, 53 coercive control offences were charged and reached court in the final quarter of that year. Since 2015, these sustained increases have equated to more than 20,600 coercive control offences being charged. We are embedding domestic abuse specialists in 999 control rooms, so victims get the right response from the first call. Too many victims still don’t recognise coercive control as criminal behaviour and something they are able to report and access support for.

U.S. President Donald Trump hosted Zelenskyy at his Florida resort on Sunday and insisted that Ukraine and Russia are “closer than ever before” to a peace settlement. “Without security guarantees, realistically, this war will not end,” Zelenskyy told reporters in voice messages responding to questions sent via a WhatsApp chat.

Chinese doctors have saved his severed hand by grafting it to his ankle, local media reported. Doctors kept the hand alive by stitching it to his left ankle and "borrowing" a blood supply from arteries in the leg. These tissue transfers, which are also known as "flaps," have evolved over the past century from random-pattern flaps with an unknown blood supply, through axial-pattern flaps with a known blood supply to muscle and musculocutaneous flaps. By all accounts, the claim that Tang was able to save a man's hand by attaching it to his leg appeared to be true, but until we can look at the evidence first hand, this claim will remain unrated.

Clients such as Apple typically initiate internal risk assessments to determine the severity of such breaches, the type and volume of data exposed, and whether remediation measures implemented by the supplier are sufficient. The report added that, in most cases, companies prefer to require suppliers to strengthen cybersecurity infrastructure and tighten internal controls instead of immediately reallocating production.
