WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Tuesday floated a theory that the Democratic National Committee staffer who was shot dead in the streets of Washington last month had been targeted because the operative was an informant.

Until now, Goldman says, most of the letters chosen by the staff have been handwritten letters or emails sent through WhiteHouse.gov.

The mayor of the French city of Cannes has banned the wearing of burkinis – full-body swimsuits worn by some Muslim women – on its beaches. Mayor David Lisnard issued an ordinance forbidding beachwear that doesn’t respect “good morals and secularism,” noting that swimwear “manifesting religious affiliation in an ostentatious way” could impact public order while France is the target of terrorist attacks, the BBC reported. A spokeswoman confirmed to NBC that the ordinance applies to burkinis but the mayor told local media that other religious symbols, including the kippah (Jewish skullcap) and the cross, would still be permitted.
Twin blasts in Thailand killed one woman and injured 19 people, including foreigners, in the popular seaside resort town of Hua Hin, police said. Small blasts are common in Thailand during times of heightened political tension, but there have been few such incidents in the past year and it is rare for tourists -- a key source of income for the kingdom -- to be targeted. "The type of bomb is still under investigation," Hua Hin's police chief, Sitthichai Srisopacharoenrat, told AFP after the blasts.

"It was just a stroke of luck," Lonnie Watson, one of the visitors, said in a statement issued by the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources.
