3+ hour, 4+ min ago (1241+ words) Before Rahmanullah Lakanwal settled in a quiet part of Washington state, he was part of a secret unit of Afghans who operated under CIA direction and hunted down Taliban commanders in highly dangerous missions. They "took malignant actors off the battlefield and saved American lives, period," said Andrew Sullivan, who served as an officer with the Army's 1st Division in Afghanistan and is now executive director of No One Left Behind, a nonprofit that helps resettle Afghans who worked for the U.S. military during the war. These members of "Zero Units," also known as National Strike Units, were among the most extensively vetted of any Afghans who worked with American forces. CIA officers hailed their bravery, skill and loyalty, and the agency prioritized their evacuation from Afghanistan following the fall of Kabul in 2021 because they were prime targets for the Taliban. Lakanwal,…...

3+ hour, 22+ min ago (485+ words) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has submitted a request for a formal pardon amid a yearslong corruption trial, just weeks after President Donald Trump said he should be pardoned. "The continuation of the trial is tearing us apart from within, provoking fierce divisions, intensifying divisions," he said. "My personal interest was and remains to continue the process until the end, until I am fully acquitted of all charges, but the security and political realities, the national interest, require otherwise." Netanyahu is facing charges of fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes in three separate cases. Prosecutors have alleged that he exchanged regulatory favors with media owners in Israel seeking positive press coverage. He has also been accused of accepting gifts " including cigars and champagne " in exchange for advancing the personal interests of Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan and Australian billionaire James…...

5+ hour, 40+ min ago (1233+ words) In early 2023, Liana Shatova began taking low doses of an antidepressant to ease symptoms of a premenstrual disorder marked by mood swings, anxiety and depression. At first, the difference was remarkable for her. "I felt full of energy and could juggle multiple things at once," said Shatova, 40, a business development manager from the Greater Boston area. Then, after around 18 months on the medication, she started to fear she was becoming emotionally numb. "My best friend's mom died unexpectedly, everyone was in shock and sobbing, and I couldn't cry at all," said Shatova. "I just felt nothing." When Shatova asked her doctor if she could stop taking the medication sertraline, an antidepressant better known by its brand name Zoloft, she said she was reassured that she was on the lowest prescribed dose and that coming off it wouldn't be difficult. Initially…...
