Scotland Yard says a nerve agent was used to poison 66-year old former spy Sergei Skripal and his 33-year old daughter Yulia in a shopping center in Salisbury on Sunday afternoon.  It which means doctors now have specific protocols to follow to treat the two who remain in a critical condition after the attack.  But officials also say the police officer who was first to the scene has now fallen ill because of exposure to the toxin and is in a serious condition.  Skripal was convicted in Russia of spying for the West, but was allowed to move to England as part of a spy swap.

An Israeli court released former Melbourne teacher Malka Leifer to home confinement after a prominent ultra orthodox rabbi spoke on her behalf and promised to "watch" her to ensure she doesn't leave.  Leifer is wanted by Victorian police on 74 charges of child sexual abuse, including rape from alleged abuse at the Addas girls school in Melbourne.  Supporters of the children were outraged: "What about her alleged victims?" former Melbourne resident Adam Segal yelled at  the Rabbi, "If you want to help, put her on a plane".

South African cops are hunting the attackers who tried to chainsaw the legs off of a top triathlete.  27-year old Mhlengi Gwala was training on a mountain road in Natal when he was attacked; he thought the men wanted his watch or bicycle, but instead dragged him into the bush and tried to saw through his legs.  The chain was too blunt to get through the bone and they left, allowing him to crawl to the roadside for help.  "When he spoke to doctors they said they will be able to save his leg and he will be able to walk and run again but it is a long walk to recovery," said Mr. Gwala's training partner.  Gwala was due to compete in the South African national championships this month.

Robbers in Brazil must have prepared really well, because they needed only six minutes to jack US$5 Million from a German cargo plane at a freight airport near the city of Sao Paulo.  The Lufthansa flight has supposed to go to Switzerland.  Police say the robbers impersonated armored car guards, and pulled off the heist without injuring any of the real guards.

The Shinmoedake volcano in southwestern Japan blew its top, sending ash and soot all over Kagoshima.

The European Union produced a list of American items that will face import fees if the orange clown Donald Trump goes ahead with his tantrum and slaps a 25 percent tariff on steel imports, and a 10 percent tariff on aluminum.  It includes peanut butter, orange juice, and bourbon whisky, and it's probably not a coincidence that these items are produced in states run by Trump's Republican party.  "Trump has recently said, and I quote, 'trade wars are good and easy to win' but the truth is quite the opposite.  Trade wars are bad and easy to lose," said European Council President Donald Tusk.  Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop says she has "no expectation" that Australia will be spared the Trump administration's steel and aluminium tariffs.

A German court jailed eight neo-nazi scum for crimes including attempted murder and terrorism.  Prosecutors say it's a miracle the group Freital, named for their home village, didn't kill someone with improvised explosives fashioned out of fireworks purchased in the neighboring Czech Republic.  In Greece, police arrested eleven members of a neo-nazi group for attacks on migrants and Leftist groups.  Investigators say they recovered large quantities of bomb-making materials that the so-called "Combat 18" group planned to used in a murderous attack.

Another perpetrator of Argentina's Dirty War died in a military hospital while serving a life sentence.  Disgraced general Reynaldo Bignone killed and tortured Leftists, and handed their abducted children to right-wing and military families to raise during the 1970s US-sponsored fascist dictatorship.  As the junta's last leader in the 1980s, he oversaw the destruction of evidence in an effort to shelter his fellow evil-doers from responsibility.

Pope Francis will make a saint out of slain Salvadoran Archbishop Oscar Romero, who was murdered by a right-wing death squad at the outset of El Savador's civil war in 1980.  1960's reformist Pope Paul VI will also be canonized, according to the Vatican.

Police in Sri Lanka clashed with Buddhist rioters who attacked mosques and Muslim-owned businesses.  The country declared a state of emergency earlier this week because of the clashes, and the government hinted at a crackdown on Buddhist groups that clearly don't know a thing about Buddhism and attack the country's Muslim minority.

Syrian troops now control about half of East Ghouta, the last rebel-held district near the capital city Damascus.  The cease-fire called for by the UN Security Council just hasn't happened yet, and civilians are still dying in the crossfire.

China's abandoned Tiangong-1 space station is expected to come plunging to earth sometime between now and early April, but there's probably very little chance we'll be crushed by 8.5 tons of flaming, toxic garbage from the sky.  Some reports suggest that New Zealand "might" be in the path, but it's really anyone's guess where it comes down.  Best estimates say the module is expected to re-enter somewhere between 43 degrees north and 43 degrees south latitudes - which is pretty much most of the habitable world except for Europe north of the Mediterranean.  So, head to Paris if you want to skip this thing.
