Trump administration pushing controversial deal to send people to non-home countries, including South Sudan and Eswatini

Seven people have arrived in Rwanda as part of a deal to accept deportees from the US, the Rwandan government has said.

Become the world’s worst cleric, speak to the dead or pick a fight with sea birds in this Monty Python-esque magical mystery from Swedish developer Christoffer Bodegård

Dungeons & Dragons is a rich playground of fantastical tales where warriors, wizards and elves can take on monstrous foes for unimaginable spoils … or you can spend an entire evening completely undermining your dungeon master by killing off important characters, focusing on unrelated items and improvising your own disastrous adventure. This is often where the best stories are and where Esoteric Ebb takes its inspiration.

Part tabletop game, part RPG, you play as a cleric who has been sent to investigate the destruction of a tea shop in the city Norvik, which is about to hold its first ever election in five days. You’ll talk (and occasionally fight) with the local residents to uncover the truth and affect the outcome of the election. Or perhaps you’ll just fight some seagulls. You can choose your own path, but, much like in D&D, your success comes down to dice rolls and having to live with the consequences if you fail them.

And right on cue this year’s return from les grandes vacances has delivered – but in the form of a shock move that could collapse the government within a fortnight, plunging Europe’s second biggest economy into chaos.

Prime minister François Bayrou stunned the country on Monday by announcing he would seek a “back me or sack me” confidence vote in the national assembly on 8 September. For a minority prime minister, it is a risky gamble indeed – he has almost no chance of winning the vote, wrote Angelique Chrisafis, the Guardian’s Paris correspondent.

The Rams linebacker spent the early part of his life in Zimbabwe. But he has kept his childhood memories alive as his football career has grown

For Nate Landman, surprise has become routine. The Los Angeles Rams linebacker has lost count of the raised eyebrows, smirks, and awkward pauses when people learn where his story begins.

“They don’t believe me at first,” Landman said. “I’ll show them I’m covered in African tattoos, and some will say I’m still lying until they look it up or someone will vouch for me.”
