Ex-Twitter worker claims responsibility for Donald Trump’s account shutdown A German man has come forward as the former Twitter Inc employee who shut down the account of U.S. President Donald Trump for 11 minutes this month on his last day of work at the social network. The technology news website TechCrunch published an interview on Wednesday with Bahtiyar Duysak, whom it called a 20-something with Turkish roots who was born and raised in Germany. The website said he was a temporary contract worker in San Francisco for Twitter.

A Libyan Woman: I Want to Explain to All Africans What is Happening in my Country #Libya As written by the Libyan woman: Hello, I allow myself to write to you to explain what is happening in my country. Know that Libya is totally destroyed and that the Libyan people are massacred by daesh. Our army is doing its best to fight daesh and during this time, mafias are taking advantage of this chaos, especially the mafia of smugglers, who kidnap migrants, mistreat them, torture them and ask ransom for their family to release them. Know that slavery is considered a crime in Libya, and this is not at all a normal and acceptable practice in Libya, nor acceptable to the Libyan people. It’s just that we are poor and we do not have the ability to protect or care for migrants because we spend more time trying to stay alive. I ask you not to spread hatred against the Libyan people or Libya, because we are as victims as the migrants And we ask you to help us.
