Johnny Depp Trial: Claims that couple was engaged in 'mutual abuse'

FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. - A former personal assistant to Amber Heard said she never saw the actress suffer any physical abuse at the hands of then-husband Johnny Depp — but she said Heard once spit in her face when she asked for a higher salary.Heard descended into screaming fits of blind rage, sent incoherent text messages at 4 a.m. and was often drunk and high on illegal drugs, Kate James testified in a video deposition that was played in court Thursday during the trial for Depp's libel suit against Heard.Depp, on the other hand, was very calm, almost shy, "like a total Southern gentleman," James said.The "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor has accused Heard of indirectly defaming him in a 2018 opinion piece that she wrote for The Washington Post.

The shocking image came in from Tallinn. Dozens of women had gathered outside the Russian embassy in the capital of Estonia to protest the sexual violence and rape inflicted on Ukrainian women. Covering their faces with black masks, the women were clad just in shirts. This is a poignant reflection of the brutal times that we are living in. The dark shadow of war is stretching further. This is why speculation is rife in Finland once again. Citizens are being asked to acquaint themselves with techniques of modern warfare. Apart from this, the government has issued orders to put together rations, petroleum products and essential medicines for a period of three to 10 months.

Ukrainians defy Russian ultimatum to surrender in Mariupol

Mariupol appeared on the brink of falling to Russian forces Sunday after seven weeks under siege, in what would give Moscow a crucial success following its failure to storm the Ukrainian capital and the sinking of its Black Sea flagship.The Russian military estimated that 2,500 Ukrainian fighters were holding out at a hulking steel plant with a warren of underground passageways in the last pocket of resistance in Mariupol.Moscow set a midday deadline for their surrender, saying those who laid down their arms were “guaranteed to keep their lives.” But the defenders did not submit, just as they rejected previous ultimatums. Russia warns Ukraine to lay down arms in Mariupol ‘to stop any hostilities’ “We will fight absolutely to the end, to the win, in this war,” Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal vowed on ABC’s “This Week.” He said Ukraine is prepared to end the war through diplomacy if possible, “but we do not have intention to surrender.”The capture of Mariupol would free up Russian forces to join an expected all-out offensive for control of the Donbas, the industrial region in the country’s east where the Kremlin has focused its war aims after abandoning, for now at least, any attempt to take Kyiv, the capital.The relentless bombardment and street fighting in Mariupol have left much of the city pulverized and killed at least 21,000 people, by the Ukrainians’ estimate.
