Pakistan says a new round of peace talks with Afghanistan is underway in China after deadly fighting

AP News ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan on Thursday confirmed it was holding peace talks with Afghanistan’s Taliban government in China, where Beijing is mediating to broker a lasting ceasefire after weeks of fighting that have killed hundreds, disrupting trade and cross-border travel.

The confirmation of the new round of talks came a day after officials from the two sides told The Associated Press that representatives from the two countries had traveled to Urumqi in northern China, where they held the first round of talks.

It remains unclear who is representing Pakistan and...

A look at the UK's Royal Navy, which has faced jibe after jibe from Trump and Hegseth

AP News LONDON (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump and his Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have been damning of the U.K.'s naval capabilities. Their jibes may have stung in a country with a long and proud maritime history, but they do carry some substance.

The U.K. has been at the forefront of Trump’s ire since the onset of the Iran war on Feb. 28, when British Prime Minister Keir Starmer refused to grant the U.S. military access to British bases.

Though that decision has been partly reversed with the decision to permit the U.S. to use the bases, including that of Diego...

Trump’s White House ballroom is expected to get approved days after judge's ruling halting work

AP News WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s White House ballroom is expected to win approval from a key agency on Thursday, days after a federal judge ordered a halt to construction unless Congress allows what would be the biggest structural change to the American landmark in more than 70 years.

It has been 50 years since the last perfect NCAA champion. Indiana will be honored not far from home

AP News BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Bob Knight's halftime speech on March 29, 1976, was an instant classic.

Indiana's players remember walking into the locker room, down 35-29 to a Michigan team they'd already beaten twice in close games earlier that season with starting guard Bobby Wilkerson ruled out because of an injury. That's when the late Hall of Fame coach arrived and issued the challenge that fueled the comeback and made history.

Indiana responded with one of the most dominant halves in NCAA Tournament history, outscoring the Wolverines 57-33 to rally for an 86-68 It...

Universities pressured to strip names of Epstein associates from campus buildings

AP News COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — In rain, snow and bitter cold, a steady drumbeat of small protests have been held in recent months on the Ohio State University main campus with a single goal in mind: removing billionaire retail mogul Les Wexner's name from buildings where it's emblazoned.

At issue — for union nurses at OSU's Wexner Medical Center, for former athletes at the Les Wexner Football Complex, and for some student leaders who may walk past the Wexner Center for the Arts near the campus oval — is Wexner's well-documented association with the late sexual predator Jeffrey...
