1. Hello everyone, I wanted to share what I learned from the more than 15,000 pages of ISIS documents that my team and I unearthed over five different trips to Iraq. We recovered the records in 11 different cities and towns. First up, how we found them. https://t.co/nZHqzlRfne

4. The bill is not retroactive and so doesn’t directly help the victims of the Jan 7 fires, but the author of the bill, State Senator @BenAllenCA, told me that he’s had private conversations with insurers asking them to voluntarily comply with the new law:

3. Both the sponsor of the bill and the law’s author cited Bryn’s story as part of the inspiration for the bill:

2. This week, California’s governor signed into law SB 495 - nicknamed the “Eliminate the List” law - which drastically increases how much insurers must automatically pay to victims of a total lost without requiring itemization:

1. Earlier this year, I wrote the story of Bryn and the agony she was being put through as her insurer required her to itemize every last pair of socks in her incinerated Altadena home: https://t.co/s3YBjl8DnO

Twenty years ago, I covered the flooding of the city of New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. Today, 8 percent of all properties in the US lie in floodplains and require flood insurance - and for those homeowners, last week's shutdown has made life a lot more complicated:

The crisis in Haiti is getting worse, as @FrancesRobles reports:

Für mich als Jesidin war es nicht einfach, mich Al-Sharaa gegenüber zu stellen, der bis vor kurzem noch unter dem Namen Al-Jolani die Al-Nusra-Front/ HTS-Miliz anführte. Aufgrund der islamistischen Ideologie mussten unsere Leute in Irak sterben. Ich hätte ihm gerne meine

The No. 1 and No. 2 real estate companies in the country have signed an agreement to merge - if approved the merger will create a real estate behemoth:

So proud to know you @drewhinshaw and to have worked alongside you. This book on the human poker at play in hostage negotiations is next level:

8. But the idea of hunting this majestic animal doesn't sit right with many Romanians, who point out that the problem is largely man-made: a result of real estate developments encroaching on the bear's habitat, which caused the bear to enter human communities, where it acquired a

7. The people who live in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains in the counties most affected want a hunting moratorium to be lifted.

6. The brown bear - which can reach up to 900 pounds and can stand as tall as a doorway - have been sighted in 27 of Romania's 41 counties. I visited five people who have been disfigured by bears, in one instance speaking to the victim's daughter because the man remains intubated

5. Calls to 112 - the Romanian equivalent of 911 - to report bears threatening people or their property was 1,750 in 2020. Only halfway through 2025, the number is already over 5,000:

4. On a third occasion, a bear penetrated the spa, and downed a 3-liter jug of massage oil. The majestic creature has been a tourist draw for decades in Romania, but this is not Winnie the Pooh. The numbers of attacks on people are through the roof:

3. The bear headed to the breakfast buffet where it ate all the sachets of honey. On another occasion, it entered a hallway spooking this housekeeper:

2. The brown bear - or ursus arctos - is one of the national treasures of my birth country. But in recent years, the man vs nature equation has flipped. I visited one hotel where bears came *inside* the establishment not once, not twice, but three times just in the month of June.

1. At 4:22 am on June 20, the intruder approached the entrance to the four-star resort. The break-in took 23 seconds. The suspect weighed 400 pounds. The target of the burglary? Honey. A thread on how Romania's bear population has exploded:

I’ve spent over a year documenting bears and the complexities of human and animal cohabitation. I’ve returned to photographing them, this time for the @NYTimes. Text by @rcallimachi https://t.co/9YNIuAeh51
