GB News: 'It HAD to happen!' Former Referee hails FA for transgender ban: 'Women's rights were being ERODED'
'It HAD to happen!' Former Referee hails FA for transgender ban: 'Women's rights were being ERODED'
The Football Association will ban transgender women from participating in women's football in England starting June 1, 2025, following a UK Supreme Court ruling that defined a woman based on biological sex. Former referee Janie Frampton supports the decision, citing concerns about physical differences affecting fair play.

Frampton expressed her pride in being a biological woman and emphasized the need for separate spaces for women and transgender individuals. The FA acknowledged the challenges this policy change presents for transgender players who wish to compete in their identified gender.

Times Of Israel: Houthi missile triggers sirens in Haifa and across north, is intercepted
Houthi missile triggers sirens in Haifa and across north, is intercepted
Yemen's Houthi rebels launched a ballistic missile at Israel early Friday, which was intercepted before reaching its target. The missile triggered sirens in northern Israel, including Haifa, but no injuries were reported. Debris from the interception damaged a kindergarten's roof.

Since March, the Houthis have fired approximately 24 missiles and drones at Israel, with only half triggering alerts. Recent improvements to Israel's early warning system have made it more accurate, allowing for timely notifications to civilians.
