How the US left Ukraine exposed to Russia's winter war Will Europe use frozen Russian assets to fund war? How can Ukraine rebuild China ties? Russian forces launched 448 attacks on 34 settlements in Ukraine's front-line Zaporizhia region in a single day, injuring a six-year-old child and damaging homes, cars and other infrastructure, regional governor Ivan Fedorov wrote on the Telegram app. Russian drone, missile and artillery attacks on Ukraine's Kherson region injured five people and damaged homes, including seven high-rise buildings, the local military administration said on Telegram. Russian attacks also continued in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk and Sumy regions, but local officials there noted that "fortunately, no people were injured".

Is Trump losing patience with Putin? Will sanctions against Russian oil giants hurt Putin? How much of Europe's oil still comes from Russia? Russian drone attacks on the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, early on Sunday killed at least three people and wounded 29 others, according to Ukrainian Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko. The wounded included seven children, Klymenko said.

Currently, two radiologists are required to review the images from each screening to ensure accuracy. However, it is hoped the AI being trialled will enable one of the speciality doctors to complete the process, freeing up radiologists to see more patients and, in turn, cut waiting lists. More than two million mammograms a year are carried out under the screening programme, so it could have a major impact on the workload of radiologists. Department of Health and Social Care chief scientific adviser Prof Lucy Chappell said the study could lead to a "significant step forward". Health Secretary Wes Streeting said this should just be the start of a wider improvement in cancer care.

RoboCup is an international scientific initiative with the goal to advance the state of the art of intelligent robots. As part of this initiative, a series of competitions and events are held throughout the year. The main showcase event is an international affair with teams travelling from far and wide to put their machines through their paces. This year, RoboCup is being held in three arenas in the Genneper Parken, Eindhoven, The Netherlands. The organisers are expecting over 2,000 participants, from 45 different countries, with around 300 teams signed up to take part in the various competitions.

Pope Francis accused conservative bishops in the U.S. of holding a "suicidal attitude" in a new interview with CBS News that aired on Sunday. Pope Francis will meet with the leaders of the United States, Ukraine, France and India on the sidelines of the Group of 7 (G-7) summit in Italy's Borgo Egnazia, the Vatican said on Thursday. Francis, who in January warned against the "perverse" dangers of artificial intelligence, is due to take part in leaders' talks on the new technology on Friday. He is the first pope to take part in G-7 discussions. Pope Francis is seen at the weekly general audience at Saint Peter's Square at the Vatican on June 12, 2024.

Tennis is one of those sports that has only been intermittently well served by video games. The odd major series comes along, such as Pete Sampras, Virtua Tennis or Smash Court, but often we're left relying on old favourites (take a bow, Super Tennis). It's been 13 years since TopSpin 4 was released, and that title is considered such an authentic simulation of the sport that people are still seeking out copies to this day. But perhaps no longer: 2K Games has at last produced a follow-up, and it's a true championship contender. From the opening, TopSpin 2K25 has all the detail you'd expect from a modern licensed sports sim. All the key stadiums and championships are here – though the play environments are only adequately detailed, rather than the stunning theatres of photorealism we've come to expect from EA Sports.

A football playing robot is to compete in an international tournament later this year - and experts say'she' is better than Lionel Messi. The 4ft 8in humanoid, named Artemis, can walk and jump, and is among the only three robots across the globe with the ability to run. Researchers from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) refer to Artemis as an anagram for'A Robot That Exceeds Messi In Soccer'. Dennis Hong, director at the Robotics and Mechanisms Laboratory said: 'We're very excited to take Artemis out for field testing here at UCLA and we see this as an opportunity to promote science, technology, engineering and mathematics to a much wider audience.' The human-sized robot will show off its football skills as a contender at France's RoboCup23 in July.

Join the audience for an AI in Medical Physics Week live webinar at 3 p.m. BST on 23 June 2022 based on IOP Publishing's special issue, Focus on Machine Learning Models in Medical Imaging Want to take part in this webinar? An overview will be given of the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in automatic delineation (contouring) of organs in preclinical cancer research models. It will be shown how AI can increase efficiency in preclinical research. Speaker: Frank Verhaegen is head of radiotherapy physics research at Maastro Clinic, and also professor at the University of Maastricht, both located in the Netherlands. He is also a co-founder of the company SmART Scientific Solutions BV, which develops research software for preclinical cancer research.

The first UK clinical trial of an artificial intelligence (AI) device which has the potential to transform bowel cancer care is underway at nine NHS trusts. The COLO-DETECT study is trialing the use of GI Genius, an AI device which helps clinicians identify polyps during colonoscopies. Five hundred patients have already been recruited to take part in the trial at one of nine participating trusts. The AI device is capable of highlighting area that it thinks may contain a polyp – from which most bowel cancers develop. Spotting as many polyps as possible allows the area to be more closely examined to determine if polyps are present and if they need to be removed.

Good news for fans of AI-generated pop: the AI Song Contest will return for 2022! The AI Song Contest is all about collaborating creatively with AI, and anyone can take part. The organisers have announced that the deadline for entries for this year's competition is 1 June 2022. Teams must register by 15 March 2022. The winners of the 2021 competition were M.O.G.I.I.7.E.D. with their song Listen To Your Body Choir.
