Outrage has spread across social media and the island of Maui, Hawaii, after a video of a man throwing rocks at an endangered monk seal went viral. The footage shows the man repeatedly hurling large rocks at a monk seal known as Lani. When confronted by onlookers, the man is heard saying: “I’m rich, I can pay the fines.” Following the initial video, a second clip reportedly shows locals confronting and assaulting the man, although no official reports have yet been filed regarding the altercation. A federal investigation has been launched into the man’s actions. Hawaiian monk seals are protected under the federal Endangered Species Act, the Marine Mammal Protection Act, and state law. Reports indicate that the man has been located and detained by authorities, though no official charges have been filed at this stage. #seal #tourism #hawaii #socials #monkseal

Real Madrid's simmering tensions spilled over on Thursday when Federico Valverde and Frenchman Aurelien Tchouameni were involved in a dressing-room fight, with the Uruguayan taken to hospital with a cut head, several club sources said. Real later confirmed that team captain Valverde, who was subsequently discharged,sustained a head injury and will be sidelined for up to two weeks. "Following tests carried out today on our player Fede Valverde by Real Madrid’s medical team, he has been diagnosed with a head trauma," the club said in a statement. "Valverde is at home and in good condition; he will need to rest for between 10 and 14 days, in line with medical protocols for this diagnosis." Madrid's season has unravelled on multiple fronts. Manager Xabi Alonso was sacked midway through the campaign and his successor Alvaro Arbeloa has been unable to prevent the team sliding towards a second successive year without a trophy. Following a Champions League quarter-final exit to Bayern Munich, Real trail LaLiga leaders Barcelona by 11 points with four matches remaining. The sides meet at the Camp Nou on Sunday in a Clasico that could seal the title for the Catalans. For more details, read today's GDN or visit our website http://www.gdnonline.com #RealMadrid #Madrid

During times of hardship, a nation’s true character is revealed not only through its leadership, but through the unity of its people. In the Kingdom of Bahrain, that spirit of unity is clearly visible. Across the archipelago, citizens and expatriates alike are standing behind His Majesty King Hamad, reaffirming their collective commitment to the kingdom’s stability, security and enduring resilience. Bahrain’s expatriate community plays a key role in the kingdom’s economic and social success. They have long contributed to growth across industries, from finance to hospitality, while also becoming an integral part of the country’s social fabric. Many arrived seeking opportunity; most stayed because of the stability, safety and inclusive environment fostered under the leadership of His Majesty. Policies promoting coexistence, economic opportunity, social harmony as well as cultural and religious tolerance, have made Bahrain a regional model for diversity and inclusion. On February 28, hostile Iranian attacks targeted Bahrain and neighbouring countries in the Arabian Gulf region, threatening wider Middle East stability. Strikes on civilians and critical infrastructure were not only reckless; they violated international norms and undermined regional security. Yet, their impact within Bahrain has been the opposite of what was intended – rather than division, they have reinforced national unity. Bahrain’s response to the attacks was swift and disciplined. The Bahrain Defence Force, alongside security and emergency services, acted decisively to protect lives and safeguard infrastructure. Bahrain’s institutions remain strong and reliable, reinforcing confidence among both citizens and expatriates. For residents – Bahrainis and expatriates alike – this sense of safety and security is not abstract; it is part of daily life. For more details, visit http://www.gdnonline.com #Bahrain #Manama

The United States and Iran exchanged fire on Thursday, throwing into question the viability of a shaky ceasefire that had largely held for the previous month. Iran's top joint military command accused the US of violating the April 7 ceasefire by targeting an Iranian oil tanker and another ship entering the Strait of Hormuz chokepoint. The US military said it acted in self-defence after Iran launched "unprovoked" attacks on US Navy destroyers that were passing through the strait. It said Iran did not hit any US assets in the attack. Air defences were activated in Tehran, the semiofficial news agency Mehr reported. #US #gdnonline
