Twelve news organizations called on presidential candidates Joe Biden and Donald Trump to commit to debates, emphasizing their significance since 1976 in every campaign.

Highlighting the importance of debates, the organizations urged the candidates to discuss their visions for the nation's future before the American people.

Quick Glance: Dubai permits private schools to adjust fees by up to 5.2%

Private schools in Dubai now have the ability to increase their fees by a maximum of 5.2 percent, based on their performance in the latest annual inspections. Schools demonstrating an improvement in their rating are eligible to implement fee increases.

The rate of increase is determined by the performance of each institution in the annual inspections conducted by the regulatory authority. Approval from the KHDA is mandatory for any fee adjustments.

Schools that enhance their rating from 'Weak' to 'Acceptable' or from 'Acceptable' to 'Good' can raise their fees by two times the ECI of 2.6 percent, equaling 5.2 percent.

The Education Cost Index is calculated using the yearly audited financial reports of private schools in Dubai to outline the operational expenses of a school and is developed in cooperation with the Digital Dubai Authority.

Quick Glance: Arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Raises Concern Ahead of Indian Elections

When Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was arrested in March for an alleged liquor scam by the Enforcement Directorate, it marked the latest incident in a long list of legal offensives against opposition leaders ahead of the Indian general elections.

Surveys indicate the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is ahead, but concerns over unemployment and inflation could boost the opposition.

Opposition parties in India, critical of Modi, see recent developments as a government attempt to use central agencies to pressure political opponents.

Kejriwal's arrest could pave the way in Delhi for President's Rule, leading to the dissolution of the AAP-led government with the BJP taking control of the state.

Former President Trump is on trial in New York for hush money issues. David Pecker from 'National Enquirer' testified about an agreement to manipulate stories about Trump and his rivals.

Concerns arose about Trump's violation of the gag order by criticizing court members. Mary McCord explained how the administration of justice can be disrupted by defendants' statements, leading to legal restrictions.

Despite reluctance to detain a former president, fines may be imposed for attacks on witnesses and judicial families. Threats to security and witness testimonies pose serious challenges to the trial's integrity.

Judges emphasize the importance of upholding justice by addressing threats and ensuring the safety of those involved in legal proceedings. The credibility of the trial hinges on maintaining a fair and secure environment.

Quick Glance: 28 Years Later: Cast Revealed with Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes

Sony Pictures' work on 28 Years Later is progressing, as Ralph Fiennes, Jodie Comer, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson have all signed up to join Danny Boyle and Alex Garland’s post-apocalyptic follow-up, according to Deadline.

The three stars are now attached to the first of a planned three-movie run for the franchise. Details about their roles remain undisclosed at this time.

Fiennes, Comer, and Taylor-Johnson each possess enough star power to carry their own films. Fiennes is best known for his roles in The Grand Budapest Hotel and Schindler’s List, but also made a name for himself as an intimidating head chef and as Lord Voldemort in Harry Potter movies. Taylor-Johnson has appeared in numerous superhero films and is allegedly a top candidate to take on James Bond. Comer has a significant presence in Killing Eve and has also been in Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel and Ryan Reynolds-led Free Guy.

28 Years Later aims to bring the three stars together to narrate a story penned by Garland and directed by Boyle. However, the trio is only committed to the initial installment, leaving their return for future films uncertain. A second film in what could be a 28 Years Later trilogy is already confirmed, with Nia DaCosta as the favored choice to direct. The filming plan involves shooting both movies consecutively.
