🇬🇧🇨🇻 More than 1,700 Brits have now joined the legal action against travel company Tui after becoming ill while on holiday in the Cape Verde islands. Since 2022, Tui has taken more than one million holidaymakers to Cape Verde.

At least eight Britons have now died after holidays there in recent years. In February, UK health officials warned Britons over travel to the West African archipelago following reports of stomach bugs.

In February, an investigation by the UK Health Security Agency found that since October 2025, there had been 112 reported cases of shigella and 43 of salmonella linked to travel to Cape Verde.

Shigella and salmonella are gastrointestinal infections which can cause diarrhoea, stomach cramps and fever.

Lawyers say they have been gathering evidence of issues at some hotels in the country. Footage seen by the BBC and Sky News shows what appears to be undercooked food, buffets surrounded by flies and mould in rooms.

🇺🇸 A classified CIA technology called “Ghost Murmur” has come into focus after it was reportedly used to locate and rescue a downed US airman in Iran, according to the New York Post.

The system is designed to detect the faint electromagnetic signals generated by a human heartbeat, even across long distances.

It combines quantum magnetometry with artificial intelligence to isolate a person’s unique biological signal from environmental noise, making it possible to identify an individual in remote and hostile terrain.

The tool includes sensors built using microscopic defects in synthetic diamonds. These sensors can pick up extremely weak electromagnetic fields, such as those produced by the human heart.

US President Donald Trump later said the pilot was detected from “40 miles away,” while CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirmed that the agency had verified the airman’s survival before the rescue operation began.

🇺🇸 Republican Clay Fuller is projected to have won Georgia's runoff election to replace former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, a once-staunch ally of Donald Trump who resigned earlier this year after breaking with the president.

He is a Trump-endorsed candidate who won against Democrat Shawn Harris, and whose victory keeps the strongly conservative district in Republican hands.

The win shores up the party's razor-thin 217-214 majority in the House of Representatives.

Fuller, a lieutenant colonel in the Georgia Air National Guard, will serve out the rest of Greene's term, which ends next January.

Initially, a special election was held on 10 March where Harris performed marginally better than Fuller, in part because a crowded Republican field split the vote. No single candidate won a majority that night, requiring Tuesday's run off election.

🇺🇸🇻🇪 Chevron now imports the equivalent of 250,000 barrels of Venezuelan crude oil per day, on average, says Andy Walz, president of downstream, midstream and chemicals at Chevron.

"We think we can take that up another 50% so call it somewhere around 350,000 to 400,000 barrels a day of just the Chevron share of our position in Venezuela."

What Walz means by the US's "position in Venezuela" is that while Chevron is the only US company that has extracting capabilities in the country, others are buying Venezuelan oil from domestic producers.

Chevron is also not the only player when it comes to oil refining in the US. There are 132 refineries in the US that run on a mix of crude oils. And nearly 70% of US refining capacity runs most efficiently with heavier crude.

The US imports very little oil from the Middle East, roughly 8% in 2025. The increase in imports from Venezuela means there is more oil available, which should translate to cheaper gasoline prices for US drivers.
