Good, I have the memory file. Now I can see all the URLs I've already reported today. I need to conduct fresh searches across multiple categories, ensuring diversity and no duplicate URLs.

Let me search broadly:
1. GitHub/Tech (2-3 items)
2. AI Industry (2-3 items)
3. Global Politics (2-3 items)
4. Markets/Crypto (2 items)
5. Science/Space (2 items)

I'll use web_search with freshness="pd" (past day) to get recent news.

Now I'll conduct broad searches across all categories with freshness filters to find 10-12 diverse items.

Updated [hour]:[minute] [AMPM] [timezone], [monthFull] [day], [year]

 WASHINGTON (AP) — White House border czar Tom Homan said Sunday that more than 1,000 immigration agents have left Minnesota’s Twin Cities area and hundreds more will depart in the days ahead as part of the Trump administration’s drawdown of its [immigration enforcement surge](https://apnews.com/article/minnesota-metro-surge-ice-523d18d5d75c81cbf9f24c602f1884ff).
A “small” security force will stay for a short period to protect remaining immigration agents and will respond “when our agents are out and they get surrounded by agitators and things got out of control,” Homan told CBS’ “Face the Nation.” He did not define “small.”
He also said agents will keep [investigating fraud allegations](https://apnews.com/article/minnesota-fraud-immigration-enforcement-somali-76e246b70d582f1dd42f1242cf7d7a66) as well as the anti-immigration enforcement protest that [disrupted a service](https://apnews.com/article/ice-protest-church-minneapolis-fcc97a29b9c4434c665d76d4811c5a3e) at a church service.
“We already removed well over 1,000 people, and as of Monday, Tuesday, we’ll remove several hundred more,” Homan said. “We’ll get back to the original footprint.”

Thousands of officers were sent to the Minneapolis and St. Paul area for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s “Operation Metro Surge.” The Department of Homeland Security said it was its [largest immigration enforcement operation ever](https://apnews.com/article/immigration-enforcement-ice-noem-minnesota-somali-db661df6de1131a034da2bda4bb3d817) and proved successful. But the crackdown came under increasing criticism as the situation grew more volatile and two U.S. citizens were killed.

 SYDNEY (AP) — A man accused of [killing 15 people](https://apnews.com/article/australia-bondi-shooting-jewish-bca2e99f86d0e2980fe7f53b87abbddf) in a mass shooting at a Jewish festival on Sydney’s Bondi Beach appeared in court Monday for the first time since his release from the hospital.
[Naveed Akram](https://apnews.com/article/australia-bondi-shooting-jewish-video-court-4dd61a4343aa3f5e3220906b17fa3154) appeared in Sydney’s Downing Center Local Court via a video link from the maximum security Goulburn Correctional Center 200 kilometers (120 miles) away.
He did not enter pleas to the charges against him, including murder and committing a terrorist act. The brief court appearance focused on extending a gag order that suppresses the identities of victims and survivors of the attack who have not chosen to identify themselves publicly.
Defense lawyer Ben Archbold told reporters outside court that Akram was doing as well as could be expected and it was too early to indicate any intention of pleas.
Akram, 24, was wounded and his father Sajid Akram, 50, was killed in a gunbattle with police after the attack on a Hanukkah celebration at the beach Dec. 14.

The younger Akram is next scheduled to appear in court April 9.
The police investigation is one of three official inquiries examining Australia’s worst alleged terrorist attack and the nation’s [worst mass shooting in 29 years](https://apnews.com/general-news-efed9812ae354fb389be7a6f41b0ce52).

 WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — [President Donald Trump](https://apnews.com/hub/donald-trump) said Sunday that members of his newly created [Board of Peace](https://apnews.com/article/hamas-israel-ceasefire-netanyahu-trump-6a29026f0308ba3757c975810e2f90c4) have pledged $5 billion toward rebuilding [war-ravaged Gaza](https://apnews.com/hub/israel-hamas-war) and will commit thousands of personnel to international stabilization and police forces for the territory.
The pledges will be formally announced when board members gather in Washington on Thursday for their first meeting, he said.
“The Board of Peace will prove to be the most consequential International Body in History, and it is my honor to serve as its Chairman,” Trump said in a social media posting announcing the pledges.

He did not detail which member nations were making the pledges for reconstruction or would contribute personnel to the stabilization force. But [Indonesia’s military](https://apnews.com/article/indonesia-gaza-military-peacekeepers-82ae6c8a8264b79c38722e84040dbbbd) said Sunday that up to 8,000 of its troops are expected to be ready by the end of June for a potential deployment to [Gaza](https://apnews.com/hub/israel-hamas-war) as part of a humanitarian and peace mission. It’s the first firm commitment that the Republican president has received.

Alexei Navalny's mother joins mourners laying flowers at son's grave

The mother of the late Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny says the assessment that her son died of poisoning has validated her belief that he was murdered.

On Saturday, the UK and European allies put out a statement saying Navalny, who died in 2024, was killed using a [poison developed from a dart frog toxin](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwyk4lz4e3eo), and that "only the Russian state had the means, motive and opportunity to deploy this lethal toxin".

"This confirms what we knew from the very beginning," Lyudmila Navalnaya said while visiting her son's grave in Moscow on Monday - the second anniversary of his death. "We knew that our son did not simply die in prison, he was murdered."

Russia has firmly rejected the accusations.

"Of course, we do not accept such accusations. We disagree with them, we consider them biased and unfounded. And, in fact, we resolutely reject them," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday.

Navalny's widow Yulia has also marked the two-year anniversary of his death, writing in a social media post: "We have achieved truth and we will achieve justice one day too."

The Kremlin did not comment on her statements at the time.

Navalny was a fierce critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin

Dozens of Muscovites, as well as several foreign diplomats, visited Borisovskoye cemetery on Monday, heaping flowers on Navalny's grave.

A note left on the grave read: "Alexei, we remember you every day".

Navalny was 47 when he died in the Siberian penal colony where he was serving a 19-year sentence for "extremism".

A fierce and charismatic critic of President Vladimir Putin, he mounted campaigns highlighting high-level corruption in government, bringing hundreds of thousands onto the streets and becoming known abroad as Russia's only opposition leader.

He survived a suspected poisoning with the Novichok nerve agent in 2020, for which he received treatment in a German hospital. He returned to Russia the following year, saying he did not want to "give up either my country or my beliefs".

Police arrested him on arrival. Just over a year later, he died in the Polar Wolf penal colony above the Arc

Obama initially commented on the subject as part of a quickfire round of questions on a podcast

Former US President Barack Obama has clarified that the chances Earth has been visited by aliens is "low" after comments he made about extra-terrestrial species caught attention online.

"They're real but I haven't seen them," he told American podcast host Brian Tyler Cohen during an interview published on Saturday.

"They're not being kept in Area 51. There's no underground facility unless there's this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the president of the United States," he added.

Obama has since said his comments were made in line with "the spirit of the speed round" of questions, adding that statistically the chances are that life is out there but he saw "no evidence" while president.

Obama's initial comments were made during a quickfire "lightning" round of questions.

"Are aliens real?" Cohen had asked as his first question of the round for the former president.

Obama's answer was subsequently run in different media outlets and attracted attention online - prompting him to publish a clarifying statement on his official Instagram account on Sunday.

"I was trying to stick with the spirit of the speed round, but since it's gotten attention let me clarify," he wrote in a caption that accompanied the video clip from the podcast.

"Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good there's life out there. But the distances between solar systems are so great that the chances we've been visited by aliens is low, and I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us. Really!"

Obama, who served as president of the United States between 2009 and 2017, has previously made comments about aliens and UFOs -[telling late night TV host James Corden in 2021](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-57559179) that on coming into office he asked whether there was a lab "where we're keeping the alien specimens and space ship".

"They did a little bit of research and the answer was no," he said - but also pointed to records and footage of objects in the sky that had not been explained at the time.
