Dolphin freed from fishing line in Indian River Lagoon
SUMMARY: A dolphin entangled in fishing line in the Indian River Lagoon has been freed, according to Fox 35. The dolphin, first reported by Sean Beard in late March, was seen trapped in line around its tail. The Hub SeaWorld Research Institute conducted extensive searches in the lagoon but spotting the animal was challenging. In early May, a new sighting near the 520 Causeway confirmed it was the same dolphin, now free from the fishing line, identified by scars where the line had been. How the dolphin freed itself remains unclear, but it is now swimming well, no longer in distress, much to everyone’s relief.
A dolphin once tangled in fishing line in the Indian River Lagoon is now swimming free, according to wildlife experts, bringing a wave of relief to the community and researchers who had been searching for weeks.

Israel again intercepts Gaza-bound ship carrying activists and humanitarian aid
SUMMARY: The Israeli military intercepted the Gaza-bound aid ship Handala, detaining 21 international activists and journalists and seizing all cargo, including baby formula, food, and medicine. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition said the interception occurred about 40 nautical miles from Gaza in international waters, with communications cut just before midnight Saturday. The coalition emphasized the cargo was civilian and intended to help a population facing starvation under Israel’s blockade. Activists from 10 countries, including seven U.S. citizens, were aboard. The raid drew criticism from human rights groups, which called it a violation of international law. Israel provided no immediate comment.

Trump goes to Scotland for “working visit” as DOJ wraps up Ghislaine Maxwell questioning
SUMMARY: President Trump arrived in Scotland for a five-day “working visit,” including trade talks with the EU chief and a meeting with the British Prime Minister. However, he is expected to spend much of the trip at his golf resorts. Protesters in Scotland greeted Trump with hostility, linking him to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Meanwhile, the Justice Department concluded a second day of questioning Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s co-conspirator, who cooperated fully according to her lawyer. Trump dismissed questions about pardoning Maxwell, emphasizing it was premature. The Justice Department has not yet disclosed any details from Maxwell’s interviews.
