Norwegian People's Aid NGO lays off half its staff due to Trump policy
Norwegian People's Aid (NPA), a humanitarian group that helps to demine war zones, will have to lay off more than half of its staff globally, following U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to freeze U.S. foreign aid, it said on Tuesday. In 2024, NPA received 460 million crowns ($41.05 million) from the U.S. State Department for its demining work, it said, with the funding used in Iraq, Laos, Vietnam and Yemen, as well as other countries that have been at war. Trump's announcement of a 90-day freeze on U.S. foreign aid on January 20 has caused dismay among aid organisations worldwide.

A doctor arrested in Germany over patients’ deaths is now suspected of 10 killings
A doctor in Berlin who was first arrested in August on suspicion of killing four elderly patients is now suspected of killing a total of 10 patients and, in five cases, trying to cover up the evidence by starting fires, investigators said Tuesday. The unidentified doctor, who was part of a nursing service’s palliative care team, was initially suspected of killing four patients in June and July and then attempting, with mixed success, to set fire to their apartments. The two latest cases include the alleged killing of a 25-year-old woman in her apartment in Berlin in Sept. 2021, in which the 40-year-old doctor is suspected of giving the woman a lethal mixture of various drugs with the intention of killing her.
