COX'S BAZAR - A landslide buried a girls' school in a Rohingya refugee camp in southeastern Bangladesh on Wednesday, killing at least eight people, including seven students and a teacher.

TEHRAN - Iran’s president and foreign minister were physically attacked this week by supporters of a hard-line faction that opposes any deal with the United States.

PARIS - Marine Le Pen says she will run for France’s 2027 presidential election after an appeals court upheld her embezzlement conviction but shortened her ban from office. The court also ordered a year under electronic monitoring, though that penalty is suspended while she appeals to France’s highest court. Le Pen called herself a candidate and launched her campaign anyway. Her rivals now have a familiar problem: she is still standing.

KARACHI - Pakistani rescuers found submerged wreckage from a K2 Airways cargo plane that vanished on approach to Karachi with five crew members aboard.

Rough monsoon seas were slowing the operation.

WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump said Wednesday he will ask the Supreme Court to rehear its ruling preserving birthright citizenship, a long-shot bid to revive an order that would strip automatic citizenship from children born in the US to some noncitizen parents.

HONG KONG - Apple supplier Luxshare Precision Industry Co. is set to begin trading Thursday after raising HK$24.3 billion, or $3.1 billion, in Hong Kong's biggest listing so far this year.

DETROIT - Justin Verlander said Wednesday that 2026 will be his final season, ending a 23-year run that made him one of baseball's defining pitchers. The 43-year-old Tigers right-hander, a three-time Cy Young winner and 2011 AL MVP, said injuries this year made the call for him. He also said he plans to pitch again for Detroit before he walks away. Tarik Skubal was there to listen.

The U.S. is going home.

SEATTLE - Belgium knocked the United States out of the World Cup on Monday, rolling to a 4-1 win in the round of 16 and ending the hosts' run on home soil.

The U.S. had won its group and beaten Bosnia and Herzegovina in the first knockout round, but it never found its footing against Belgium. Matt Freese's error helped turn the night into a mess, and manager Mauricio Pochettino did not say whether he will stay on. U.S. Soccer says talks will continue.

LONDON - Christopher Nolan’s three-hour The Odyssey premiered Monday night, and the first reactions are already calling it a best picture contender. Critics praised the scale, the Imax photography, and the cast, with some singling out Matt Damon and Robert Pattinson for particular notice. Nolan also defended his choice to use contemporary English dialogue, saying he wanted language with emotional, not intellectual, meaning. The movie opens worldwide next week, and the argument around it has barely started.

LOS ANGELES - The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures will open The Horror Show on Sept. 26, a 10-month exhibition built around horror's craft, not just its jump scares. The show runs through July 25, 2027, with six themed chambers on Gothic, Slasher, Ghosts and Religion. It also comes with a 50th anniversary Carrie screening with Sissy Spacek and a John Carpenter retrospective. Horror, the museum is saying, is not a side genre. It is the main event.
