The former president denies knowing or ever meeting the woman, and even called his accuser a “wack job” during a CNN town hall event

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has filed a court notice of appeal two days after he was found liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll, in a New York department store.

A New York jury awarded Carroll nearly $5m in damages over claims Trump attacked her in the 1990s.

Jurors found Trump liable for battery and defamation, but not rape.

The former president denies knowing or ever meeting the woman, and even called his accuser a “wack job” during a CNN town hall event.

He’s also accusing the civil trial’s judge of anti-Trump bias and says his decision not to testify in person would not have made any difference to the outcome.

The jury’s verdict marks the first time Trump has been found legally responsible for assault.

Carroll claims Trump raped her inside a dressing room and defamed her by calling her allegation “a hoax and a lie”.

While the jury found Trump liable for sexual battery and defamation, they did not find him liable of raping Carroll.

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.

President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.

The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.

With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
