- The EU has agreed to make the use of a standard charger for Apple iPhones and other devices mandatory.
Dom Phillips and his guide Bruno Pereira went missing on June 5 in a remote section of the Amazon where environmental crimes such as illegal mining, fishing, and forestry, as well as drug trafficking, abound. Police did not clarify whether the suspect, Amarildo da Costa de Oliveira, admitted to the murders or not, only that he had confessed.
