Fox News: 'Missteps' in American college student disappearance probe have permanent consequences: retired FBI agent
The search for Sudiksha Konanki, a missing college student in the Dominican Republic, has entered its eighth day. A retired FBI agent noted that the longer she remains missing, the less forensic evidence will be available to determine the cause of death. Initial statements from local authorities suggested she drowned, but they have since expanded their investigation.
Konanki was last seen on March 6 at a resort, walking with a man who is now under investigation. His conflicting accounts of the events have raised questions, and authorities are examining all evidence, including witness testimonies and potential intoxication levels.

Forbes: Here’s When The Next ‘Blood Moon’ Total Lunar Eclipse Is
The next total lunar eclipse will take place on September 7-8, 2025, primarily visible from Asia, Australia, and the Pacific. The Americas will not see this event as they will be on the daylight side of Earth.
North Americans will have to wait until March 3-4, 2026, for a fully visible total lunar eclipse, with totality observable in Hawaii, Alaska, and western regions of the U.S. and Canada.
Le Monde: Stargazers enjoy dramatic 'Blood Moon', a total lunar eclipse
A total lunar eclipse, known as the "Blood Worm Moon," captivated stargazers on March 14, 2025, visible across the Americas and parts of Europe and Africa. The phenomenon occurs when Earth casts a shadow on the Moon, causing it to appear red due to sunlight scattering through the atmosphere.
The totality lasted just over an hour, with significant viewing times reported in North America and France. While the term "Blood Moon" has negative connotations for some, others view lunar eclipses as symbolic events promoting unity. A partial solar eclipse is also expected later this month.
