A number of French cities have imposed night-time curfews on young people following a spate of violence linked to drug trafficking, BBC reported.

Nîmes in the south was the latest to bring in measures, which authorities said were meant to prevent under 16s from being "exposed to violence" and to "contain tensions". Additional police units will also be sent in.

Over the course of the last month several shootings - one in broad daylight - left one person dead and several injured.

Last week the body of a 19-year-old man was found partially burned on the outskirts of Nîmes, according to BBC.

US soft drink giant Coca-Cola says it plans to introduce a new Coke sweetened with cane sugar to its existing line-up , confirming a plan that President Donald Trump previewed last week, BBC reported.

The company already uses regular sugar to sweeten its signature Coke drink in many parts of the world, but in the US it has typically used corn syrup, a lower cost alternative, for decades. 

Trump's Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr has voiced concern about the corn syrup's health risks, though experts say there are no clear nutritional reasons to favour one sweetener over the other. 

"This will be a very good move by them - You'll see. It's just better!" Trump wrote on social media last week, according to BBC.

United States announced its decision to withdraw from UNESCO, just two years after rejoining the UN cultural agency.

The State Department cited concerns over the agency’s focus on “divisive social and cultural causes,” particularly in relation to the Israel-Palestine issue, as the reason for its exit, Xinhua reported.

Air India has completed precautionary inspections of the Fuel Control Switch (FCS) locking mechanisms on its Boeing 787 and 737 aircraft, finding no issues. The checks were carried out following a directive from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), issued after a Boeing 787-8 crash on June 12 that killed 260 people and injured 67, according to Xinhua.

The inspections, which began voluntarily on July 12, were completed by the DGCA’s July 21 deadline. The directive was based on a US FAA bulletin warning of potential FCS disengagement. Preliminary findings from India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau indicated engine shutdown due to switch confusion, though no major faults were found with the aircraft or its engines.
