Police in Los Angeles are seeking up to 11 suspects after a nightclub bouncer was beaten to death in Hollywood in the early hours of Sunday morning. The 32-year-old security guard was found lying unresponsive in the street outside the Dragonfly club near Santa Monica Boulevard and Wilcox Avenue at around 2am, according to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). Investigators said the man, who has not been named, was set upon by a crowd while working at the club. He died from his injuries in hospital. “We know that oftentimes people will record these types of incidents on their cellphone. We would encourage them to share that with us as it can help bring a sense of justice to this person’s family,” said Detective Samuel Marullo in an appeal for witnesses to come forward. So far, no arrests have been made and no motive has been offered to explain the incident. Friends of the victim, reportedly a father of two, gathered at the site of the attack on Sunday evening to place candles and pay their final respects.

Adele asked fans whether they'd travel on the OceanGate submarine to see the Titanic wreckage. On Friday (23 June), the 'Easy on Me' singer paused her Vegas residency to hold a vote on the matter. She acknowledged that last week's incident was "so sad and so tragic" before adding that she and her friends had been debating whether they would have gone on the sub. In footage that's since gone viral on TikTok, Adele said: "Everyone’s like, 'I would never do that.' But that’s a lie, cause a lot of people would do that," "I want to do a vote, not in mind of what happened, cause that was so sad and so tragic, but before this week, how many people would, if they could, would go down to the very, very bottom of the ocean to see the Titanic? Raise your hands." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Adele went on to offer her take, saying: "I wouldn’t do it either, but only because I’m a bit of a p***y. I’m a scaredy cat of everything. She continued: "I wouldn’t even go on roller coasters. But also, I just genuinely don’t have an interest in the deep sea or space, so that’s why." @delly.fromtheblock I love her for this? #adele #weekendswithadele #fypシ #submarine Fellow TikTokers flocked to the comments, with one writing: "Adele conducting a questionnaire during her concert is so me."

Vladimir Putin has pushed more troops to the frontline in Avdiivka, Ukraine, despite a failing offensive which has incurred heavy losses. The reinforcements are set to arrive after Russian soldiers have become bogged down there in recent weeks, the ISW reported, citing Russian military bloggers. Russian assaults in Avdiivka have contributed to “a 90 per cent increase in Russian casualties”, the Ukrainian ministry of defence claimed. It comes as Ukrainian authorities ordered a mandatory evacuation of 802 children from 23 settlements in Kherson, according to the Reintegration ministry. The children with their parents or legal guardians will leave the Beryslav, Kakhovka, and Kherson districts for safer regions, the ministry said on Telegram. Meanwhile, Russia has amassed “150,000-190,000 permanent casualties” in the war with Ukraine, the UK defence ministry said. In other developments, six people have been killed in a Russian missile attack that hit a postal distribution centre in Kharkiv, Ukrainian officials have said, as Kherson has seen a record number of bomb attacks in the past 24 hours.
