The man is facing two years in prison for allegedly taking the prohibited footage.

A traveller who allegedly filmed Iranian missiles in Dubai could face prison time for the footage.

The 60-year-old man, from London, stands as one of dozens of people accused of breaching strict laws in the United Arab Emirates against creating or uploading social media posts relating to conflict.

The legal advocacy group, Detained in Dubai, reports there are 21 people accused of the crime, reports The Mirror.

The Londoner was arrested in Dubai on Monday this week. It is reported he has deleted the footage from his phone immediately when asked by the authorities, and claimed to have had no knowledge of committing any offence.

Radha Stirling, director of the London-based Detained in Dubai organisation, said: “Amongst those charged is a British man who says he deleted the video immediately when asked and meant no harm, but is still among those facing charges.

“The official allegation relates to: ‘broadcasting, publishing, republishing or circulating rumours or provocative propaganda that could disturb public security.’

“Under UAE cybercrime laws, one post can lead to many arrests. Anyone who shares, reposts or comments on the same content can face the same charges. and be named on the same charge sheet.

“The charges are vague and broad but serious nonetheless. Those charged could face lengthy prison sentences.

“Residents could also be detained under national security laws, held indefinitely, denied access to their embassy and be subjected to human rights abuses. In times of tension, extreme caution is advised.”

Prosecutors in the UAE had warned last week over the risks of sharing “rumours” about incidents in the UAE amid the ongoing Middle East conflict.

A social media post from UAE Public Prosecution said: “Any person who shares or reposts content from unknown sources shall be subject to legal accountability in accordance with the applicable legislation, even if they are not the original creator of such content.

“Be aware and informed… Information is a responsibility, and spreading rumours is a crime.”

It comes as Iranian drones have continued to strike Dubai in the past 24 hours despite Tehran issuing an ‘apology’ to its Gulf neighbours for the war.

Two drones launched from Iran fell near Dubai International Airport yesterday, leaving four people injured. And authorities rushed Dubai Creek Harbour area late last night after another drone struck a high-rise building, sparking a fire on several floors. Photographs taken this morning showed windows blown out and smoke damage on a section of the building’s facade.

The Dubai Media Office said multiple emergency teams responded to the incident in the waterfront district, with residents evacuated as a precaution.

Donald Trump says he is no longer that interested in a Nobel Prize, despite openly campaigning for one throughout much of his second term.

The president is also unsure how the ongoing Iran war will impact his future chances of getting one.

Speaking with the Washington Examiner, Trump said he had “no idea” if the Iran conflict would “get him over the finish line” with the Nobel committee.

“I don’t know,” he added. “I’m not interested in it.”

The U.S. is already facing heavy scrutiny over its conduct in the two-week conflict.

A Pentagon probe reportedly has reached preliminary findings that a U.S. missile struck an Iranian elementary school, killing around 175 people, mostly children.

The president has said he’s unaware of those alleged findings and that the incident is under investigation.

Elsewhere in the interview, President Trump said the subject hasn’t come up with foreign leaders he’s interacted with about the ongoing conflict, which has killed seven U.S. troops and an estimated 1,348 people in Iran.

“No, I don’t talk about the Nobel Prize,” Trump said.

The comments would come as a surprise to the Donald Trump of a few months ago, who regularly spoke about how he deserved the high diplomatic honor.

Throughout 2025, the president claimed he had stopped at least eight wars since taking office, though an Independent fact-check underscored how many of these claims were inaccurate, exaggerated, or premature.

That didn’t stop nations and institutions seeking favor with Trump from playing into the president’s well-known interest in a Nobel Prize, which reportedly is fueled in part by his anger that President Barack Obama won one first.

In January, Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado symbolically gave her Nobel Prize to Trump during a White House meeting, though the prize organizers say she remains the sole holder of that year’s honor.

The prior month, the international soccer organizing body FIFA gave Trump a newly created peace prize, which it announced weeks after Trump was snubbed for a Nobel and came as FIFA prepares to host the World Cup in North America in 2026.

Whatever Trump’s present interest in the Nobel is, there are few doubts that his administration has scrambled global relations with an oftentimes aggressive and unilateral approach.

The administration has tariffed enemies and allies, kidnapped the leader of Venezuela, launched a soft war on alleged drug boats in the Caribbean, assassinated the leader of Iran, and threatened the military takeover of Greenland, despite it being a NATO ally.

It has also failed to definitively end crises that the president confidently claimed he would solve, such as the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Gaza wars.

A mobile repair expert from Vodafone has warned that poorly aligned wireless charging could be the culprit behind declining battery health, as uneven contact forces the device to work harder, generating heat and accelerating long-term battery degradation.

James Todd, national repairs manager at Fonehouse, said: “Modern phones have large camera bumps.

“When they sit unevenly on a wireless charger, the phone isn’t making optimal contact, so it has to work harder to charge.”

The risks of using illegal ‘dodgy’ Fire Sticks

Vodafone has teamed up with Fonehouse to offer same-day, in-store repairs in as little as two hours through its Fix & Go service, available in 18 Vodafone stores.

Mr Todd explained that although wireless charging is often seen as a convenient option, improper alignment between the phone and the charging coil can lead to excessive heat generation.

He said: “Wireless charging is often seen as a convenient hands-off option.

“But if the phone isn’t properly aligned, it can actually be worse for your battery than a cable.”

This misalignment causes the device to draw more power, creating heat that gradually reduces battery capacity.

Mr Todd said: “Over time, that heat reduces the battery’s capacity.

“It’s not something you notice straight away, but after a year or two, people wonder why their phone won’t last the day.”

The problem is especially common in vehicles, where phones are often left loosely on wireless charging pads while running navigation, music, and other apps.

To prevent battery damage, Mr Todd recommends using properly aligned wireless chargers, such as magnetic systems, or simply switching to a good-quality charging cable.

He said: “If you’re using wireless charging, alignment is everything.

“That’s why magnetic systems work so well, because they make sure the connection is optimal and reduce heat.”

Signs of battery deterioration include faster-than-normal battery drain, devices heating up during charging, sudden percentage drops, and unexpected shutdowns.

Should you charge your phone overnight?

Mr Todd said: “By the time people come into a repair shop, the damage has usually been building for months.”

He said that small adjustments to charging habits can significantly extend battery life and prevent unnecessary repair costs.

He said: “Take a second to make sure your phone is sitting flat and properly lined up.

“It’s one of the easiest ways to protect your battery and one of the mistakes we see most often.”

Beyond battery issues, another frequent problem is debris in the charging port.

Mr Todd said: “Every day you plug in your phone to charge, debris gets pushed further and further down into the port until the cable can’t properly connect.”

He said that a quick, professional cleaning can often resolve the issue without the need for expensive repairs.

The Fix & Go service covers a range of common smartphone problems, with repair prices starting at £49 for a camera fix, £39 for charging issues, £49 for battery replacements, £69 for rear cover repairs, and £79 for screen repairs.

The service is available for devices on any network, including those out of warranty, and supports Samsung, Apple, and Google handsets.

The court heard Noel Crowley’s wife of seven decades, Anne, slept each night with the hat he was wearing when he was knocked down

A much-loved family man and community stalwart was killed by a drug-driver as he walked to church, a court has heard.

Former Neath Port Talbot Council leader Noel Crowley was hit as he crossed the road by Zack Mason, an unaccompanied learner driver who was over the legal cannabis limit for driving. The 86-year-old was rushed to hospital but could not be saved.

A judge at Swansea Crown Court described Mr Crowley as a “much loved and much respected” man who was “know by many, and held in high esteem by all”.

Hannah George, prosecuting, told the court that the fatal incident happened in Port Talbot at around 5.30pm on December 7 last year.

She said Mason, who was aged 20 at the time and driving his mother’s Skoda Fabia car, pulled out of the car park of Blanco’s hotel and drove some 25 metres along Water Street before striking Mr Crowley as he was crossing the road.

Members of the public rushed to assist the injured man before he was rushed to University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff with severe head injuries. He died three days later.

Meanwhile, Mason had been arrested at the scene, and the court heard that a subsequent blood test showed he had 2.3mg of cannabis in 100ml of blood, the legal limit being two. For the latest court stories sign up to our crime newsletter

In his police interview, Mason said a fellow motorist had “flashed” him out of the car park and that his attention had been drawn to the other driver as he thanked him. He told officers he had last consumed cannabis two days before the incident.

In a family statement read to the court, Mr Crowley was described as a man of “fairness and compassion” and great generosity, and as a champion of social equality.

Mr Crowley – who was awarded CBE, Deputy Lieutenant, Order of St John, Pro Ecclesia Et Pontifice, and Freeman of the Borough – was described as “the man who kept our world turning” who is “missed in every tiny detail of the day”.

The court heard Mr Crowley’s wife of seven decades, Anne, slept each night with the hat he was wearing when he was knocked down.

Zack Mason, now aged 22, of Lorraine Close, Sandfields, Port Talbot, had previously pleaded guilty to causing death by careless driving while over the legal limit of a specified drug, and to causing death while driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence when he appeared in the dock for sentencing.

The court heard he gained a provisional driving licence in April, 2021, but the following year it was revoked after he was caught driving without insurance.

David Singh, for Mason, said the defendant took full responsibility for his actions and acknowledged the devastation he had caused to Mr Crowley’s family.

He said his client had desisted from the use of cannabis since the day of the incident and that was a situation he would endeavour to maintain.

The barrister said it was not a case, for example, where the defendant had been speeding or been using his mobile phone, but said Mason had “clearly not been concentrating” resulting in “devastating consequences”.

Judge Huw Rees said the deceased was a “much loved loved and much respected” man who was “know by many, and held in high esteem by all”. He said no sentence a court could impose could mark the value of a life lost, and nor was it intended to.

With a one-third discount for his guilty pleas Mason was sentenced to four years in prison. He will serve up to half the sentence in custody before being released on licence to serve the remainder in the community.

The defendant was banned from driving for a total of seven years and must pass an extended test before he can get a licence.

The champion trainer withdrew the odds-on favourite Fact To File from the Ryanair Chase after deeming the ground was unsuitable for the Irish Gold Cup winner

Willie Mullins pulled out one of this year’s Cheltenham Festival ‘bankers’ on Thursday, unhappy with the state of the going at the track. The JP McManus-owned Fact To File is one of the best chasers in training, who captured the Ryanair Chase in 2025 and was under consideration for the Cheltenham Gold Cup after recording an impressive victory in the Irish Gold Cup.

In the end connections opted to defend the Ryanair crown but had hoped for much softer going than the official description of good (good to soft in places). As the racing moved to the New Course after a dry first two days, track officials carried out selective watering with 3-5mm applied. Another 2-3mm was forecast during the afternoon.

Connections warned they were worried about conditions for Fact To File through the day but waited until four races had been run before making their final decision.

Mullins explained: “We walked the track this morning, JP walked the track this morning, I happened to walk it. Coming across the track from exercising horses and I thought wow this ground is going to be too good for Bambino Fever and sure enough in the first race she wasn’t able to act on it.

“We waited and waited all day for rain that was promised and it hasn’t come so we made the decision not to run. These horses are too hard to find, too hard to get. We would like to have soft in the description of the ground.”

He went on: “Good ground is not good enough for the type of individual we are buying and trying to race and have the top horses at the best festival. If the ground is going to be like this we are not going to bring them.

“We were promised watering and I not sure the watering we were promised has been done so, I’m a little bit annoyed about that, when I thought there was going to be more watering done and it hasn’t been done. I know the weather forecast hasn’t been kind but very few people complain about too much rain.

“This isn’t good for the type of horses we’re bringing over here. I know it suits some horses but for the majority of the good big national hunt horses we would like it a little softer.”

McManus was fully behind his trainer. “I have to say, I’m very strong on it. I walk the course every day – I just always felt it needed more water,” he said. “That’s how I felt. Particularly at the top of the course there, it’s very beaten up from the previous runs. You’ve a crossover there and you’re only as strong as the weakest link in a course.

“It doesn’t matter if 80 per cent or 90 per cent of it is right, if 10 per cent of it isn’t right, that’s good enough for me. I was very happy when Willie agreed to take him out and I was very happy that he did that. We were worried all week about it.

“I think, going forward, they’ll have to pay more attention to parts of the track. You’re talking about winter-time horses in the first half of March – you’re not talking about racing in October or November here. Everybody has a different view but, for me, I think they could have done more.“Certain horses, it suits, but Fact To File is a real old-style chaser and, if you want to have him next year, you take a risk taking your chance today.”

In Fact To File’s absence Jonbon carried the McManus hopes of another success. While he maintained his brilliant record of never finishing out of the first two places, he was well beaten by the Henry de Bromhead-trained Heart Wood, ridden by Darragh O’Keeffe.

A father-of-four tragically passed weeks after being diagnosed with a brain tumour. Called ‘one in a million’, Michael O’Gara was on holiday in the Maldives with his family in January when he started to be sick and have headaches.

At first his loved ones thought it was a bug, until they received the shocking news it was a stage four cancerous brain tumour. A fundraiser was launched by his Middlesbrough family to pay for specialised treatment, including an operation, to give the 48-year-old the best chance of recovery.

Within a few days the total reached and more than £45,000 TeesideLive reports. But, sadly Michael’s condition deteriorated rapidly and he sadly passed away on March 9 surrounded by his devastated family.

He ran RAMP UK, a rope access company on Teesside, and was affectionately known as ‘Mousey’. Floods of heartfelt tributes have been left on social media for him. One said: “He was one in a million R.I.P Mousey.”‘

Another added: “RIP Mousey – one of Boro’s finest thinking of the family.” One person said: “No words. Rest in peace Mousey. What a legend,” and another added: “Special guy, world won’t be the same without Mousey.”

Step-daughter, Millie Young, 22, previously explained how the family was on holiday when Mousey became ill. Once they got home he was becoming increasingly unwell with headaches and started to drag his leg.

Wife Emma, 42, took him to James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough where they got the heart-breaking news of the tumour. As well as leaving Emma and Millie, Mousey also leaves the rest of his heartbroken family including, step-daughter Alice, 20, and daughters, Lacey, 12 and eight-year-old Sally.

In an update on the fundraising page the family thanked everyone from ‘the bottom of our hearts’ saying: “Your kindness and support during this time has meant more to our family than we can ever truly put into words.”

It added that money from the fund-raiser would be used “to give Mousey the most beautiful and loving send-off he truly deserves.”

The family added: “Thank you again to everyone who has shown Mousey so much love, kindness and support. It truly means the world to us during this incredibly difficult time.”

A funeral service will be held on Wednesday, March 25, in St Bede’s Chapel, Teesside Crematorium at 1pm and the family has requested everyone wear traditional funeral attire along with a splash of the colour purple.

In Ridley Scott’s 2005 epic Kingdom of Heaven, The Knights Templar are portrayed as violent extremists. The film is about a crusader, Balian of Ibelin, who is fighting to defend the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem from the first Sultan of Egypt and Syria, Saladin.

The Knights Templar were formed on Christmas Day 1119, as a revolutionary type of knighthood in which knights lived as monks, taking vows of poverty and piety. Their mission was to protect travellers on the dangerous roads of the Kingdom of Jerusalem. So it struck me as interesting that in Scott’s crusades film they would be portrayed as antagonists of the Crusader Kingdom.

Their singling out in Kingdom of Heaven was the spark that led to my book The Knights Templar: Crusade, Myth and Hollywood. What I found was that villainising the order was fairly common in films that include them. However, rather than being a modern trope, their vilification can be traced back to 700 years ago.

On Friday October 13 1307, the grandmaster Jacques de Molay was arrested by a debt-ridden pope along with every other Templar found in France. The sudden arrest caused widespread shock throughout Europe. Some of the confessions that would be extracted from them would have a mysterious occult edge and it would be these that would shape the order’s legacy from then on.

The Templars amassed vast riches, land, and political power for nearly 200 years. Their downfall began in 1291 with the loss of the Crusader states, or Outremer (modern Israel, Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey). After the Crusader capital of Acre fell to the Mamluk forces of Egypt and Syria, the Templars were left without a cause, making the order appear redundant and vulnerable to criticism.

The two figures central to their downfall were French Pope Clement V and French King Phillip IV, who was burdened with significant debt and had previously moved against groups within his power, such as Italian bankers in 1291 and the Jews in 1306, seizing their property and assets to ease his financial problems.

Friday 13th

On Friday October 13 1307, Jacques de Molay was in France negotiating another crusade. That military campaign would never happen and instead, he and every Templar in France (around 2000 of them) were suddenly arrested and imprisoned in the Paris Temple.

Although the news shocked Christendom, Clement V had written to Phillip IV in 1305 detailing the rumours about the Templars and plans for an investigation. Phillip IV issued the Templars’ arrest order a month prior, charging them with blasphemy, sodomy and heresy.

The first charges related to the initiation into the order, where, according to the Order for Arrests, initiates must deny Christ and spit on an image of him three times. The document then details how the initiate is stripped naked and kisses the receiving Templar on “the lower part of the dorsal spine”, “the navel” and “on the mouth”.

Once in the King’s clutches, the Templars were deprived of sleep and shackled with irons. Templar Ponsard de Gizy described in detail how he was unable to move in a pit for three months, with his hands tied behind his back so tightly that blood ran down his fingernails.

Those who did not confess faced the rack and suffered the strappado – this is where the victim was strung up by the hands, which were bound behind their back. Under these horrific conditions, 134 of the of the 138 Templars questioned in Paris confessed to some or all of the charges. Under torture, even the grandmaster admitted to denying Christ, but instead of spitting on his image, he claimed to have spat on the floor instead.

It wasn’t the charge of blasphemy, however, that haunted the Templars’ legacy, it was the accusations of worshipping false idols.

Extracted under torture, Hugues de Pairaud describes worshipping a head with two feet under its face and two feet behind it. Very few Templars had any knowledge of the mysterious head idol, and only nine admitted to knowing about it. Those who did gave contradictory accounts: the head with feet was described as having a beard, of being painted on a beam and made of wood, silver, and gold leaf. Others claimed to worship an idol called Baphomet and a bearded head called Yalla.

The origin and identity of the idol Baphomet are mysterious. However, historian Sharan Newman suggests it’s most likely a corruption of the name Mohammed.

The Templar order was abolished in 1312 and Jacques de Molay was burned at the stake in 1314 as a relapsed heretic. The majority of the Templars caught in France were either executed or confined to prison indefinitely. However, it wasn’t until the 16th century that the Templars’ heresy entered popular imagination.

The German physician Heinrich Agrippa’s 1531 book De Occulta Philosophia, recontextualised the failed order alongside witchcraft. While French writer Guillaume Paradin detailed the Templars’ sordid heresy in his 1552 Chronicle of Savoy. In his history of Savoy, the Templars engage in orgies with women after initiates worshipped an image covered in human skin with glowing carbuncles for eyes.

The salacious occult imagery of the 16th century remained a widely held perception of the Templars into the 20th and 21st centuries. This lasting association is clear in cinema.

The 1972 Spanish/Portuguese horror film Tombs of the Blind Dead portrays undead Templars rise from their graves to prey on a group of teenagers. The undead Templar recently resurfaced again in the 2017 film The Mummy, where the titular villain raised Templars from their tombs to act as her minions.

There are Templars across cinema enacting evil and its interesting to think about how this all came to be because of a handful of confessions about worshipping false idols, which were obtained through torture.

A Belfast cafe is giving away free coffee all day on Friday as part of a special celebration.

Café Melrose, on the Lisburn Road, will be providing brews to customers free-of-charge on Friday, March 13, to celebrate their new coffee product.

The initiative will take place from 8.30am to 4pm and is in celebration of the premises’ new partnership with Newcastle coffee roaster Groupwork.

Owner Gabriel McCoy, 30, who took over the business two years ago said: “There has been a café here for about a decade, we have made significant investment into the site. We are super excited to elevate our coffee offering to be in line with everything else we are doing here.

“We went to five different roasters but the husband and wife team there, Stephen and Hannah at Groupwork made it a no brainer. We decided to swap our coffee to Groupwork who are a company based in Newcastle. They ran through the whole process with us, and the fact that I am originally from Hilltown in Co Down means together we can bring the county’s hospitality to Belfast.

“To celebrate that partnership we are offering free coffee all day tomorrow from 8.30am to 4pm. People are fine to pop in for a free brew, you don’t need to sign up or anything, just come along.

“We specialise in top tier service, we are very reasonably priced for a BT9 café but Friday will give customers a chance to try our new coffee offering completely for free. For the last week we have had the coffee available and the feedback has been really positive. People are buying the coffee and taking it home with them, so that is a massive tick of approval. Lately, we have been going around all our local streets and handing out flyers.”

Gabriel said there was a wide array of food and drink available at the café.

He added: “We have our own delicatessen which provides a selection of sandwiches and wraps, it is a massive deli that caters to all dietary requirements. We have an extensive brunch menu and we also have the capability to do outside catering.”

The brand will be offering a spaghetti and meatball sandwich as a nod to the old restaurant.

A popular sandwich shop in Cambridge is opening a second location on Mill Road just a few months since its first store was unveiled. Marvin’s, which is a sandwich shop found on Green Street and is the sister-brand to Stir Bakery, will be taking over the old site of Maurizio Dining & Co on Mill Road.

Martin Perkins of Marvin’s said: “We know Maurizio’s means a lot to people. Places like that become part of the rhythm of a street. We’re incredibly grateful to Maurizio for everything he’s built here and we’re proud to be taking up the mantle.”

The opening follows the “successful launch” of Marvin’s first location, which only opened a few months ago in September 2025 is is the next step for the “fast-growing independent brand”. The brand has said it is “honoured” to be continuing the “site’s tradition of feeding the neighbourhood”.

Mill Road is already known for being an area packed with independent businesses, restaurants, and cafés. Matt Harrison, the founder and owner of Stir and Marvin’s, said: “Mill Road has a unique energy. It’s where so much of Cambridge’s food culture lives. Independent businesses, family-run shops, incredible ingredients and cuisines from all over the world. To open Marvin’s here and become part of that fabric is something we’re hugely proud of.”

Similarly to its Green Street shop, the Marvin’s on Mill Road will serve its signature menu of “big, layered sandwiches built on bread baked fresh every day specifically for each style of sandwich”. The shop will be bringing “chewy bagels and fluffy focaccia” sandwiches as well as a special spaghetti and meatball sub, which will be served with a marinara dipping sauce as “a nod” to Maurizio Dining & Co.

Guests will also be able to find an ever-changing selection of “globally inspired” sandwiches. If you fancy something sweet, Marvin’s also stocks fresh pastries and a range of soft drinks that have been “designed to complement the food”.

The Mill Road locations wants to keep “Marvin’s relaxed, high-energy approach to hospitality that has quickly made the Green Street site a favourite among Cambridge sandwich fan”.
