Harvey Weinstein to be tried for a third time in New York after mistrial on rape charge
Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced Hollywood producer whose scandal in 2017 was pivotal in drawing global attention to the #MeToo movement, will be tried for a third time by New York prosecutors in the sexual assault case of Jessica Mann. New York Judge Curtis Farber said on Wednesday that he wants the trial to take place before the end of this year. A jury could not render a verdict in June on a rape charge accusing Weinstein of sexually assaulting Mann, a former actor. The same jury found Weinstein guilty in June of sexually assaulting former 'Project Runway' production assistant Miriam Haley in 2006 and not guilty of assaulting Polish former runway model Kaja Sokola that same year. Weinstein will be sentenced for the guilty verdict in Haley's case on September 30, Farber said. Weinstein, 73, denied all of the charges. Throughout the retrial, his lawyers insisted the sexual encounters with his three accusers were "transactional" and "consensual," and painted the women as opportunists. Weinstein, who co-founded global film studios Miramax and The Weinstein Company, was originally convicted of rape and criminal sexual act by the same court in 2020 and sentenced to 23 years in prison for the crimes. The landmark sentencing was seen as a watershed moment for the #MeToo movement, which prompted a global reckoning of sexual harassment and abuse. Last year, however, New York's highest court overturned the conviction, prompting Weinstein's retrial this summer. Weinstein was also found guilty by a Los Angeles jury of sexual assault and sentenced to 16 years in state prison, a conviction he is currently appealing.

Russia pierces Ukraine's frontline in push ahead of Trump-Putin summit
The Russian military has pierced pockets of Ukraine's frontlines in the eastern Donetsk region this week, pushing forward just days before Russia's President Vladimir Putin is set to meet with President Trump in Alaska. Russian troops have made gains in a push toward Dobropillia, a city some 60 miles northwest of Donetsk city, according to DeepState, a Ukrainian group linked to the military that tracks battlefield advances through open-source data. In response, Ukraine's 1st 'Azov' Corps confirmed on Tuesday that it was tasked with containing the Kremlin's advances. 'The situation remains complex and dynamic. The enemy is attempting to advance in this direction at the cost of significant losses in manpower and equipment,' the unit said Tuesday on social media. 'Units within the corps have planned and carried out actions to block enemy forces in the area.' The Institute for the Study of War, a Washington-based think tank, said in its analysis on late Monday that Russia's drones strikes at longer ranges are 'likely forcing Ukrainian forces to take alternative roads and further stretch [ground lines of communication], which is likely impacting Ukraine's defensive operations that rely on the consistent flow of equipment, supplies and manpower.' Pasi Paroinen, an analyst with Black Bird Group, a Finnish group that closely tracks the Russia-Ukraine war, said Monday that Ukraine's forces have a 'crisis on their hands.' 'Ukrainians will almost certainly rush in reinforcements to the area, but from where and at what cost? Ukrainians are unlikely to have plenty of ready operational or strategic reserves, which means that the forces need to come off other sections of the frontline,' Paroinen wrote. 'This in turn will open further possibilities for the Russians to exploit elsewhere. Be as it may, there is likely no other choice.' As the fighting has continued in eastern Ukraine, Trump, along with European leaders and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky, held a joint meeting Wednesday, organized by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, to discuss the president's upcoming huddle with Putin in Anchorage. In a joint press conference after the call, Zelensky said he warned Trump that Putin is 'bluffing' about his openness to a peace deal. Merz said any negotiations over territory must use the frontlines as a 'starting point,' but ruled out international recognition of Russia's occupation. Some European officials have expressed concerns that the president could cut a bad deal with the Russian leader. The president said Monday the meeting was a chance to 'feel out' Putin, who has not publicly backed off his maximalist demands to topple Ukraine's government. Zelensky said on Tuesday that Ukraine might be asked to withdraw its military from Donbas — the eastern region that includes Donetsk and Luhansk — in exchange for a ceasefire, pointing to discussions with Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff, who met with Putin in Moscow last week. Zelensky said he was not 'ready to discuss Ukraine's territories, as this is solely a matter of our Constitution.' Trump has chafed at Zelensky's resistance to territorial concessions, once again blaming the Ukrainian leader for Russia's invasion on Monday. Russian aerial attacks continued overnight, with the Kremlin firing 49 drones and two missiles in at least three regions, according to Ukraine's Air Force. 'At present, there is no sign that the Russians are preparing to end the war. Our coordinated efforts and joint actions – of Ukraine, the United States, Europe, and all countries that seek peace – can definitely compel Russia to make peace. I thank everyone who is helping,' Zelensky said on Wednesday on the social media platform X.
