Imran Khan: Silence Behind Bars
The room is bare—its cold cement floor echoing with silence. The faded blue-and-white walls carry the scent of years of confinement, perhaps even defiance. A modest bed stands in the corner, neatly made, its thin mattress betraying any hope for comfort. A pedestal fan hums lazily in the background, struggling against the summer heat. On the wall hangs a television, its black screen a lifeless rectangle above the sink and tap. Clothes hang on the side, dry and plain. A desk bears the weight of a few essentials—bottled water, toiletries, and scattered papers. But in the middle of this stark simplicity sits a man, dressed in black, engrossed in a book larger than life.

Nazi war dead are buried in Germany, sparking debate about national memory.
Even though World War II ended 80 years ago on Thursday, German soldiers' remains are still being discovered throughout Europe.

Jared Collins stood at the bottom of the same hill he had failed to climb for the past three mornings. It wasn’t Everest or anything close to it — just a steep dirt trail cutting up the side of a small mountain on the edge of his town. To others, it was a scenic hike. To Jared, it was a daily battlefield.

The Fall of the Roman Empire

The reasons behind the empire's collapse are complex and multifaceted, involving a mix of internal decay and external pressures.

The Lion and the Lamb
In a far-off land of golden valleys and sun-drenched plains, there lived a lion feared by all. His name was Razan, and his roar echoed through the mountains like thunder rolling over stone. The other creatures—gazelles, boars, birds, even the shadows—kept their distance. No one questioned his rule. None dared speak his name unless it was with trembling reverence.
