Fox News: Alleged Boulder terrorist overstayed visa, granted work permit by Biden administration
Mohamed Sabry Soliman, an Egyptian national and noncitizen, is accused of firebombing pro-Israel activists in Boulder, Colorado, injuring eight people, including elderly victims. Soliman, who entered the U.S. in August 2022, was living illegally after his work permit expired in March 2023.
He faces multiple charges, including murder and assault, after allegedly using a flamethrower during the attack while shouting "Free Palestine." The Department of Justice is investigating the incident, which has drawn attention due to its targeting of a Jewish community event.

GB News: Scientists discover mysterious 'ghost lineage' after unearthing 7,100-year-old skeleton in China
Chinese scientists have discovered a 7,100-year-old female skeleton in Yunnan province, representing a previously unknown human lineage referred to as the Basal Asian Xingyi lineage. This lineage diverged from other humans at least 40,000 years ago and has no known admixture with Neanderthals or Denisovans.
The skeleton, designated Xingyi_EN, provides insight into the genetic origins of modern Tibetans, particularly the 20% of their ancestry that has remained a mystery. Further research is needed to confirm the relationship between this ancient lineage and contemporary populations.
