Imran Khan. Today, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan was sentenced to ten years in prison for leaking state secrets. Khan and former Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi are already detained due to charges of corruption. Qureshi is also facing 10 years in prison. In an attempt to have the sentences suspended, the pair's legal team said they'd "challenge the decision in a higher court." The sentence is the most recent in Khan's long list of court cases, and it comes just before the February 8 parliamentary elections, which the deposed former leader is banned from running in because of his previous conviction.

What’s got authorities on alert…

Hate crimes in schools. Yesterday, a first-of-its-kind FBI report revealed schools are the third most common location of hate crimes in the US. The agency found more than 4,000 incidents of hate crimes in schools between 2018 and 2022 — more than 60% took place at the preschool through 12th grade level. The most common hate crimes included intimidation, vandalism, and assault. Black students faced most of the hate crimes at schools, followed by LGBTQIA+ and Jewish students. It’s unclear what’s driving the increase. The report comes amid the Israel-Hamas war, which advocacy groups say has led to a spike in antisemitic and Islamophobic incidents.

Now, the exploration company says it has found a plane-shaped object within 100 miles ofHowland Island — where Earhart and Noonanwere expected to refuel. The company’s CEO said there are “no other known crashes in the area.”Experts say a clearer image is needed to confirm whether the wreckage is Earhart's missing plane.
