Ukraine spy retracts Monaco murder confession, blames ally

An active Ukrainian GUR officer who had confessed to killing the Monaco bomb suspect Anastasiia Berezovska has reversed his account in Kyiv, claiming his co-defendant, a former SBU officer, pulled the trigger and that he was threatened; prosecutors say the two men acted jointly and are charged with premeditated murder as custody hearings proceeded under heavy security, while the motive remains unclear and President Zelensky says more details will follow.

Austria Convicts Syrian Intelligence Chief for Raqqa Torture

An Austrian court convicted Khaled al-H., formerly head of Syria’s General Intelligence Directorate in Raqqa (2011–2013), of torture and sexual abuse of regime opponents and sentenced him to eight years; a second Raqqa official, Moussab Abou R., was found guilty on similar charges, also receiving eight years. Prosecutors described beatings, electric shocks and other abuses used to suppress protests, with victims traveling from Europe and Syria to testify, in a rare instance of European jurisdiction over Assad-era crimes.

Empire State Building daredevils released on supervised terms as court date nears

Two Moscow-based climbers, Angela Nikolau and Ivan Kuznetsov (Beerkus), who scaled the Empire State Building to propose, were arraigned on charges including reckless endangerment, burglary and criminal mischief and were released on supervised release until Aug. 24. Investigators say they accessed the building via a broken 104th‑floor door and a hatch after allegedly casing the joint, while officials emphasize the rescue was dangerous for responders; the defense says the case is overcharged.

Brennan asks court to preserve records in looming DOJ probe

Former CIA Director John Brennan filed a pre-emptive federal lawsuit to force the Justice Department to preserve all records related to its investigation of his dealings during the Obama era, arguing the probe is politically motivated and a vindictive move by the Trump administration; the suit, which names several officials as defendants, seeks access to documents as a federal judge considers the case before any charges are filed.

Mangione’s federal murder case reset for January

The federal murder case against 28-year-old Luigi Mangione, accused of traveling across state lines to stalk and kill Thompson, was postponed to January after a brief Monday hearing. Prosecutors say he used a cellphone, the internet, and interstate travel to plan the attack, including staying at an out-of-state hostel, while his state-case discussions about a psychiatric defense do not apply to the federal proceedings.
