Major automakers have urged the US Congress to pass a permanent ban on Chinese vehicles. The carmakers argue that Chinese-made vehicles pose security and competition concerns for the American auto industry. Lawmakers will now weigh the industry's call against trade ties and consumer prices as the debate over Chinese vehicles continues.

The New York Liberty have fired head coach Chris DeMarco after just one season, the team announced on Tuesday. DeMarco, a longtime Golden State Warriors assistant with no prior WNBA head-coaching experience, led New York to a 26-18 record and the No. 8 playoff seed. The Liberty upset the top-seeded Minnesota Lynx in the first round, becoming the first No. 8 seed to beat a No. 1 seed, before being swept 3-0 by the Atlanta Dream in the semifinals. The move means New York will hire its third head coach in three seasons, with general manager Jonathan Kolb leading his fourth coaching search since 2019.

Anthropic's amended IPO filing shows the AI company spent more than $1.7 billion on personnel costs from July through September, an average of about $107,300 per employee per month across its 5,300 staff. The figure covers cash salaries, bonuses, benefits and payroll taxes, but the largest share, $1.1 billion, was stock-based compensation, the accounting value of shares employees earn rather than cash paid out. Personnel costs for the first nine months of 2026 reached $4.8 billion, about 15 percent of the company's $33.2 billion in revenue over the same period.

Russian forces bombed a school being used as a humanitarian aid centre and shelter in Komyshuvakha, in Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region, killing at least 31 people, according to Ukrainian officials. Two rescue workers and four police officers were among the dead, and dozens of people were reported missing. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the attack further proof that Russia does not want de-escalation. Hours later, US envoy Steve Witkoff said Ukrainian and Russian delegations would meet in Abu Dhabi on November 10 and 11 for new peace talks on security, de-escalation and humanitarian measures.

Google plans to turn off search for schools that reject artificial intelligence, according to a new report. The move would link access to its search tools to schools accepting its AI offerings, putting pressure on institutions that have held back from adopting the technology. It is the latest sign of how far tech companies are going to push AI into classrooms.

Ukrainian truckers who fled the war and found work on American roads are being caught up in the Trump administration's widened immigration enforcement. Many arrived under temporary protections that are now uncertain, leaving drivers who haul freight across the country at risk of detention even though they came to the United States to escape the war. The cases show how the crackdown is reaching workers in transport, a sector where Ukrainians make up a visible part of the workforce, and how the loss of legal status can turn a routine job into a deportation risk.

The odds of a disastrous result for Donald Trump in the midterm elections have climbed to their highest level yet on Election Day. Prediction markets now heavily favour the Democrats taking the House, though betting odds are not votes and the actual results will decide the outcome.

Usona has filed its application for a psilocybin-based treatment for depression, stepping up the race with rival Compass to bring a psychedelic medicine to patients. The filing marks a key step toward regulatory review, in a field where several companies are competing to turn psychedelic compounds into approved mental health treatments.

One woman's survival against a deadly cancer has raised a hopeful question: could mRNA vaccines offer the same chance to other patients? Scientists are testing vaccines designed to teach the immune system to recognise and attack a person's own tumour, and researchers hope the approach could one day turn more terminal diagnoses into survivable ones.

Physicists are testing a new idea about how the Universe might end, and what that could mean for how it began. Cornell physicist Henry Tye and colleagues built a model using results from two huge galaxy-mapping projects, the Dark Energy Survey and the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, which suggest dark energy has changed over time. In their model, a theoretical particle called the axion helps drive the Universe apart today, while a negative cosmological constant slowly pulls it back together. Expansion would keep accelerating for now, then slow as a crunching phase begins in roughly 11 billion years, followed by a Big Crunch about 8 billion years later. If a crunch were followed by another explosion, a Big Bounce, the Universe could be cyclical, expanding and contracting again and again. The researchers stress this is a model, not a proven answer: what happens after a collapse remains an open question.

A week after a student-backed movement defeated longtime leader Aleksandar Vucic in Serbia's October 25 parliamentary election, the country is being shaken by detentions, resignations and new investigations. Vucic's chief of criminal police and another senior police official have been detained, and the owner of Alta Bank, whose licence was revoked, was also detained. Vucic denied wrongdoing on television, saying he is not afraid of arrest. Prosecutors have been flooded with new complaints, including claims that prison wardens pressured inmates to vote for Vucic's party, and six people were detained over allegedly granting false residence papers so Bosnian citizens could vote for his party. The student winners have yet to formally take over the government administration, security agencies and the army.

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory, buried in about a cubic kilometre of Antarctic ice at the South Pole, detects some of the rarest and most energetic particles in the universe. These cosmic neutrinos, often called ghost particles because they pass through the Earth and the human body almost unhindered, can carry roughly 10 billion times the energy of a typical neutrino from the Sun. Only a few dozen of the most energetic examples are caught each year. When one interacts with the ice it creates charged particles that give off faint blue flashes, known as Cherenkov radiation, which scientists use to estimate its energy and trace its direction. The origin of the most extreme of these particles is still unknown. The work is linked to this year's Nobel Prize in Physics, awarded for the IceCube observatory and the discovery of high-energy neutrinos from space.

Samples from the asteroid Ryugu, brought back to Earth by Japan's Hayabusa2 spacecraft in 2020, contain all five nucleobases — adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine and uracil — the chemical letters that carry genetic information in DNA and RNA. It is the first time the full set has been found together in Ryugu material in roughly equal amounts, after an earlier analysis of the same samples found only uracil. Researchers say the result supports the idea that the ingredients for life could have formed in space and been widespread in the early solar system, which is about 4.5 billion years old. Lead author Toshiki Koga cautioned that this does not mean life existed on Ryugu, only that primitive asteroids could make and preserve molecules important for the origin of life. A full set of the same letters was also found in samples from the asteroid Bennu in 2025.
Samples from the asteroid Ryugu, brought back to Earth by Japan's Hayabusa2 spacecraft in 2020, contain all five nucleobases — adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine and uracil — the chemical letters that carry genetic information in DNA and RNA.
