Head of Russian intelligence agency GRU dies

 

The head of Russia’s military intelligence agency GRU, blamed by western countries for a raft of recent attacks, has died after “a severe and prolonged illness”, the Kremlin has said.

 

Igor Korobov, whose agency is accused of an assassination attempt in the UK against former spy Sergei Skripal and efforts to meddle in the 2016 US election, died on Tuesday aged 62, the ministry said in a statement to local news agencies.

 

Korobov’s two-year tenure heading the agency saw it rise to international infamy and become a buzzword for Russia’s daring foreign espionage efforts and alleged attempts to influence other countries, which Moscow denies.

St. Michael’s principal, board president resigned

 

Two leaders at an all boys private school were accused by allegations of assault and sexual assault by students. The president and principal of St. Michael’s College School have resigned their posts, just one day after the school’s board of directors expressed full support for their leadership in the wake of allegations of sexual assault and assault at the school.

 

The resignations of president Jefferson Thompson and principal Greg Reeves come eight days after news broke of an alleged sexual assault perpetrated by a group of St. Michael’s students against one of their classmates. Since then, police have said they are investigating a total of six incidents connected to the prestigious all-boys private school. The other five include one other alleged sexual assault, three alleged assaults, including one with a belt, and one alleged threatening incident.
