Bahrain Sunday rejected a U.N. report calling for the release of two men facing the death penalty which cited claims their murder convictions were based on confessions extracted by torture. In July last year, Bahrain's top court upheld the death sentence against the men convicted of killing a police officer in a 2014 bomb attack. A Bahraini government spokesperson told AFP in a written statement the men were convicted of serious criminal offences. Rights group Amnesty International has also said the trial relied on, quote, "confession extracted through torture," end quote.

Israel's government approved Sunday the establishment of an independent state commission of inquiry into a deadly disaster at a Jewish holy site in April that left 45 people dead and 150 injured. Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said the commission would investigate major safety shortcomings that led to a deadly stampede at Lag Baomer celebrations. Some 100,000 people, mostly ultra-orthodox Jews, gathered for the April 29th holiday in northern Israel despite coronavirus restrictions limiting outdoor assemblies to 500 people and longstanding warnings about the safety of such gatherings.

A tropical depression in the United States killed 12 people in the southern state of Alabama as the storm swept through southeastern U.S., causing flash flooding and spurring tornadoes that destroyed dozens of homes.

Ten people including nine children were killed Saturday in a 15-vehicle crash, according to a county coroner.

U.S. land borders with Canada and Mexico will remain closed to non-essential travel until at least July 21st, the U.S. Homeland Security Department said Sunday. The 30-day extension came after Canada announced its own extension Friday of the requirements that were set to expire Monday. Via remote, I'm Diane Roberts, VOA News.
