X, formerly known as Twitter, has gone down for millions of users around the world, with the website, app and XPro all affected.

Thousands of people reported problems in the UK, as well as in countries all around the world.

It’s bad news for Elon Musk after the social media platform experienced similar problems yesterday.

There was also a localised outage across much of the East Coast of America on Thursday. 

More than 11,000 users recorded issues with the app in the UK with website tracker Downdetector. In the US, more than 25,000 reported issues.

They described logging in to the app only for no posts to be shown, and receiving an error message stating: ‘Cannot retrieve posts at this time. Please try again later.’

It comes after a huge fire broke out at a data centre in Hillsboro Technology Park in Oregon, US, on Thursday, where it is understood X leases space.

Cannes and surrounding areas in the south of France were hit by a power cut on Saturday which briefly paused morning screenings on the final day of the city’s annual film festival. Organisers said they had switched to an alternative electricity supply to ensure the closing ceremony would go ahead as planned.

The Cannes film festival drew to a close on Saturday, promising to overcome a major power cut in order to hand out its prizes at a VIP-studded ceremony later. 

 A wry Iranian film about political prisoners and a Ukrainian-directed drama about despotism are among the frontrunners after almost a fortnight of red carpets and politically charged statements.

The blackout affected the city of Cannes and surrounding towns, depriving 160,000 households of power supply, said French electricity transmission system operator RTE on its X account.

Russia launched a major attack on the Ukrainian capital Kyiv and killed at least 13 people in strikes across the country as the two sides released hundreds more prisoners on the second day of a major prisoner exchange.

At least four people have been killed in the eastern Donetsk region, five in the southern Kherson and Odesa regions, and four in the northern Kharkiv region in the past 24 hours, according to regional officials.

Ukraine’s Air Force said Russia launched 14 ballistic missiles and 250 attack drones on the country, with the “main focus” being the capital Kyiv. It said air defenses shot down six of those missiles and 245 of the drones, with projectiles also hitting the Dnipro, Odesa, Kharkiv, Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia regions.

“It was a difficult night for all of Ukraine,” President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Telegram, expressing his condolences to families and loved ones of the injured.

President Donald Trump said on Friday that he is recommending a straight 50% tariff on goods from the European Union starting on June 1, saying the EU has been hard to deal with on trade.

“The European Union, which was formed for the primary purpose of taking advantage of the United States on TRADE, has been very difficult to deal with,” Trump said on Truth Social. “Our discussions with them are going nowhere!”

A groundbreaking study published in Nature reveals compelling evidence of a vast ocean trapped deep within the Earth’s mantle, about 400 miles beneath the surface.

This hidden water reservoir, stored within a rare mineral called ringwoodite, challenges previous ideas about how much water the planet holds. Scientists now believe that Earth’s interior contains as much water as all the surface oceans combined, locked inside mantle minerals under extreme pressure and heat.

The discovery focuses on ringwoodite, a high-pressure mineral that forms in the Earth’s mantle between 250 and 410 miles deep. What makes ringwoodite unique is its ability to store water molecules within its crystal structure. 

Steve Jacobsen, a co-author of the study, explained, “Geological processes on the Earth’s surface, such as earthquakes or erupting volcanoes, are an expression of what is going on inside the Earth, out of our sight.” He continued, “I think we are finally seeing evidence for a whole-Earth water cycle, which may help explain the vast amount of liquid water on the surface of our habitable planet.

Moderna (MRNA.O) said on Wednesday it has withdrawn an application seeking approval for its flu and COVID combination vaccine candidate to wait for efficacy data from a late-stage trial of its influenza shot, which is due later this year.

The delay was largely expected after Moderna said earlier this month that it does not anticipate approval of the shot until 2026 due to the need for more data on the flu vaccine.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has ordered Pfizer and Moderna to update their experimental COVID-19 shot labels to include warnings about the risk of heart inflammation—specifically, myocarditis and pericarditis—in adolescent and young adult males.

The directive, issued on April 17, 2025, expands existing warnings to cover males aged 16 to 25, broadening the previous age ranges of 12 to 17 for Pfizer’s Comirnaty and 18 to 24 for Moderna’s Spikevax.

The FDA cited insurance claims data showing an incidence rate of 8 cases of myocarditis or pericarditis per million doses for the 2023–2024 vaccine formulas.

“The observed risk is higher among men younger than 40 years for BNT162b2 and in men aged 18–24 years for mRNA-1273,” the FDA states in its letters to the manufacturers. 

The FDA is also requiring Pfizer and Moderna to conduct post-approval studies to assess long-term heart abnormalities, following evidence that such issues can persist months after vaccination.

After urging the public to adhere to the Biden administration’s COVID “vaccine” mandate, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention acknowledged a “likely association” between mRNA vaccines and heart inflammation, particularly in young males after the second dose.

Pfizer and Moderna were given 30 days to comply with or contest the FDA’s order, though neither company has publicly confirmed compliance or issued a response to the updated labeling requirements.
