October 20, 2022: Liz Truss resigns, Trump's company faces criminal tax, Weinstein faces rape trial, Nigeria's floods
1. Liz Truss said on Thursday she would resign as prime minister, brought down by her economic programme that sent shockwaves through the markets and divided her Conservative Party just six weeks after she was appointed.
2. Ukrainians conserved electricity and some went without running water on Thursday to ease pressure on the grid and allow the repair of infrastructure destroyed by Russian air strikes as Kyiv's forces advanced towards the city of Kherson.
3. Donald Trump's family company is set to face a criminal trial on tax fraud charges in New York starting next week that could trigger fines and further complicate the real estate firm's ability to do business as the former U.S. president's legal woes mount.
4. Harvey Weinstein, currently serving a 23-year sentence for sex crimes in New York, is back on trial on criminal charges in Los Angeles, the city where he once held sway as one of the most powerful producers in Hollywood.
5. People wade through fast-flowing water, holding one another to avoid being swept away, balancing suitcases, clothing and food on their heads. The torrent was, until recently, the East-West Road in Nigeria's Rivers state, the gateway to the nation's oil and gas. Now parts of Rivers, along with large swathes of 32 other states, are inundated by the worst flooding in 12 years.
