Search underway for missing Nimitz sailor
Sailor Gabriel D. Holt, assigned to the aircraft carrier Nimitz, was last seen at 11:57 p.m. on April 18 between Hotel Nikko and Gun Beach, the Guam Police Department said.
An April 19 Instagram post from the police department described Holt as 6 feet tall, 192 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, last seen wearing a white tank top, green shorts and gray shoes.
Search and rescue efforts were underway for the sailor, according to Nimitz spokesperson Lt. Cmdr. Tim Pietrack.

'At this time, all available agencies are actively engaged in efforts to locate the missing Sailor,' Pietrack said. 'The search is ongoing, and we are committed to fully cooperating with local authorities while search and rescue efforts continue.'
Anyone with information is urged to call 911 or the Guam Police Department's Tumon Precinct Command at (671) 649-6330.
The Nimitz Carrier Strike Group — which includes the aircraft carrier Nimitz, Carrier Air Wing 17, and Destroyer Squadron 9 — docked in Guam on April 18, the same day Holt went missing.
The aircraft carrier is currently on what's likely to be its final deployment before it's decommissioned in 2026. It left Guam on April 21, according to the Navy.

Kelley Wolf Struggles to Enter Family Home on Instagram Live After Husband Scott Wolf Drops Restraining Order Against Her
Kelley documented her attempt to get into their home alongside police officers on Instagram, which her 16-year-old son Jackson later called "insane"NEED TO KNOW Kelley Wolf recorded her attempts to enter her family's home nearly two weeks after her estranged husband Scott Wolf dropped a restraining order against her A spokesperson from the Summit County Sheriff's Office confirms to PEOPLE that they responded to a 'keep the peace' call on July 29 and escorted Kelley around the home as she attempted to get inside Her 16-year-old son Jackson later responded to her Instagram video, writing, 'This is insane mom what are you doing"Kelley Wolf is documenting her struggle to get inside her family home nearly two weeks after her husband Scott Wolf dropped his restraining order against her. In a video shared on her Instagram on July 29, the author and public speaker — who announced her split from the Party of Five star last month — documented her attempts to enter the Park City, Utah home with police present. Before arriving at the home, Kelley, 48, said she was 'under the impression that I have done everything humanly possible to retrieve some basic items from my home." 'I'm currently about to meet up with a deputy of Summit County who's going to escort me into my home so I can get some money that I have saved,' she claimed, later adding, 'I have just had enough... I'm sick of being treated like I'm crazy." As she exited her car to meet the officers, she expressed that she was unhappy with the public perception of what was happening. 'I have a sassy attitude, my God, but being called things like grandiose, bipolar, schizophrenic, crazy, being banned from places I've been forever is just rude, honestly,' she said. She added that there was a no longer active restraining order as well as 'two involuntary holds.' 'I have to now prove myself and [I] did nothing except ask for a divorce,' she shared as she attempted to enter a security code at the front door. 'I'm sure y'all have seen this before, but wrong lady, because I don't back down.' As she attempted to gain entry through the garage, she recalled her father's advice, saying, 'My dad taught me [to] keep cash. You know, just keep cash. And since I now owe a lot of lovely people a lot of money back, I've never asked for $1 in my life.' Though the garage door opened, she wasn't able to get inside the home. She then claimed she wanted to file for divorce before her estranged husband. 'I just want to get a few things… I tried to do this as peacefully [possible],' she alleged. 'I've called you guys eight times in January saying I didn't feel safe, but [Scott] beat me to the punch. Apparently, I tried to file, but if somebody files before you, they can do a lot of weird stuff.' As she continued to try to find a way into the home, she opened about the toll of being in the public eye. 'We're both famous, just that's the part that sucks…' she said. 'It's embarrassing.' She removed a window screen and attempted to push another window open as the officers called Scott, who did not answer. The video concluded with her saying that she would be 'be right back." In response to the video, her 16-year-old son Jackson wrote in the comment section, 'This is insane mom what are you doing.' PEOPLE has reached out to Scott's rep and attorneys for comment. Police have since confirmed that they were present for the situation in a statement to PEOPLE. A spokesperson from the Summit County Sheriff's Office confirms to PEOPLE that they responded to a 'keep the peace' call on the morning of July 29. 'The original call came in at 7:53 in the morning," the spokesperson says. "The deputy did not meet with them at the residence until 9:45, and the deputy advised that the complainant had left the scene at 11:34.' Police confirm that Kelley indicated she "needed to gather items at the house" and escorted her around as she tried several ways to enter the home. However, Kelley was unsuccessful in her attempts as the spokesperson says, "It appeared that the locks on the house had been changed." Per officials, Kelley 'made some phone calls to family, had some conversations with family [but] still wasn't able to gain access into the house and ultimately left.' She "never made contact with anyone" that might have been in the house and it is not known whether anyone was home at the time. "We didn't have any contact with anyone [who might have been at the residence]. But we were never inside either," the spokesperson says. "We wouldn't know definitively, but we have no reason to believe that there was anyone there." The spokesperson also adds: "The complainant did mention that there was a court order in place. As a standard procedure in these types of cases, our deputy did search for any types of orders that would bar or prohibit the complainant from being at the residence, and they were unable to locate any existing orders." The video comes nearly two weeks after Scott's restraining order against her was dismissed on July 19 amid ongoing divorce proceedings. According to court documents reviewed by PEOPLE, the July 15 temporary stipulated agreement includes provisions around custody, a temporary restraining order, visitation, finances and communication. The 57-year-old actor was granted temporary sole physical custody of their three children Jackson as well as Miller, 12; and Lucy, 11, while Kelley was granted "liberal" supervised visitation with her children. Kelley was allowed supervised parenting time as coordinated by counsel, and three supervised video or phone calls per week with the children during reasonable waking hours. If the court-appointed guardian raises concerns, all parties must reevaluate whether supervision remains necessary. Kelley is also allowed to respond if the children initiate additional contact. The agreement also included a social media gag order too. Neither party may post about one another, their marriage, children or the divorce, nor allow any third party to do so. The ultimate goal, the agreement claimed, is for Kelley to eventually regain unsupervised parenting time. Read the original article on People

Bay FC players no stranger to gambling-fueled online abuse and insults
Missing a penalty kick or turning the ball over didn't always lead to a barrage of online hate. But as sports betting surges, the two have become inextricable, and Bay FC players say they've dealt with it first-hand. 'There's always a comment here and there. Like, you're on Reddit and you see something like a negative comment towards yourself or your teammate,' said forward Penelope Hocking. The problem is especially prevalent among female athletes — the NCAA released a study after March Madness in 2024 reporting that women received three times the abuse than men experienced. While a subsequent study commissioned by the NCAA for the 2025 tournaments noted a 23% decline from the gambling-related abuse online, players like Hocking still see harmful comments. 'I think it's, like, propaganda against women, because there's always like a clip on Instagram (of) women's soccer, and it's some sort of blunder, and that's the only perception of women's soccer,' Hocking said. 'And it's always men that are like, you know, attacking the women for like just not being as athletically gifted … it's just (about) proving those people are wrong.' The NWSL, in particular, is already wrought with its own concerns, ranging from sexual misconduct to verbal abuse. A recent investigation reviewed at least two formal complaints against Bay FC head coach Albertin Montoya for violating the league's anti-harassment, bullying and discrimination policy. The investigation concluded that he was not in violation of the league's policy, but suggested a need for 'communication improvements.' The negative online environment that has become exponentially cultivated by gamblers dissatisfied with prop bet outcomes seems only to add to the pressures faced by teams. 'But I think part of being a professional is just like tuning that out and being confident in yourself,' Hocking added. 'Just blocking out the haters.' But it can be difficult to block out the haters — especially when threats go as far as telling players across various sports 'kill yourself' or making threatening comments about an athlete's family, as the Washington Post reported in June. The anonymity — both in terms of emotional separation and lacking identity — that social media provides makes it easy for extreme comments to be made. And with a higher-than-ever volume of such messages, the accountability mechanism is more difficult to enforce. Bay FC and the NWSL are aware of the damage dealt by the online abuse, becoming enough of an issue to create supportive infrastructure for athletes. The NWSL and Bay FC have contracted two companies specifically for the online threats and abuse. One monitors the online comments, hiding those that are abusive on the accounts of teams, the league and player accounts. The other company actively investigates threats made. 'I think we're really fortunate. We have great support here,' said goalie Jordan Silkowitz. 'We have each other, we're all kind of going through the same thing. And we play professional sports, so leaning on our teammates, our staff, our support staff. Everyone in this organization is great.'

Oscar-winning documentary ‘No Other Land' consultant Awdah Hathaleen killed by Israeli settler
Awdah Hathaleen a Palestinian community leader who was a consultant on the Oscar-winning documentary 'No Other Land,' died Monday after an Israeli settler allegedly shot him to death in the occupied West Bank. 'No Other Land' filmmaker and subject Yuval Abraham announced his colleague's death Monday, writing on X (formerly Twitter), '[Hathaleen] just died. Murdered.' Two hours prior, Abraham shared video of the confrontation that led to Hathaleen's death. In the video, the settler in a dark shirt can be seen shoving people in a group, pulling out and pointing his pistol in their direction. The video shows him firing at people off-screen. In the caption of his video, Abraham writes that the settler 'just shot' Hathaleen in the lungs and identified the shooter as Yinon Levi. Levi was among the 13 hard-line Israeli settlers targeted last year by international sanctions for their alleged attacks and harassment of Palestinians in the West Bank. President Trump lifted U.S. sanctions against the Israelis in January. 'This is him in the video firing like crazy,' Abraham tweeted. The incident occurred in in the village of Umm al-Khair, in the Masafer Yatta region that was the focus of 'No Other Land.' Hathaleen was rushed to a hospital in Israel, where he was pronounced dead, his family confirmed to the New York Times. He was 31. According to multiple reports, Israeli police said they responded to the scene, detaining and arresting an Israeli citizen. Police did not identify the detainee they took in for questioning, and claimed 'terrorists hurled rocks toward' the nearby Israeli settlement of Carmel, according to CNN. Additionally, the Israeli military detained five Palestinians and two foreign tourists for their alleged involvement in Monday's incident, the BBC reported. The IDF did not immediately respond to The Times' request for confirmation on Tuesday. 'No Other Land' filmmaker and Palestinian journalist Basel Adra on Tuesday tweeted video showing the attack from another angle. In this video, Levi is seen with the pistol in his right hand, smacking a person in front of him. The clip also sees Levi raising his right arm and firing off-screen. Adra says Levi 'fires the bullet that took' Hathaleen's life, adding in his caption that 'the apartheid court decided to release him to house arrest.' On Monday, Adra tweeted he was in disbelief about his friend's death: 'My dear friend Adwah was slaughtered this evening. He was standing in front of the community center in his village where a settler fired a bullet that pierced his chest and took his life. This is how Israel erases us — one life at a time.' On Instagram, the Center for Jewish Nonviolence described Hathaleen as a well-known community figure: 'an activist, artist, and teacher in the West Bank community of Masafer Yatta.' The activist group reminded Instagram followers that last month Hathaleen and another Palestinian man were denied entry, detained overnight and deported back to the West Bank when they arrived at the San Francisco International Airport. 'So many in our community knew Awdah, and gained so much by learning from him, and being his friend,' the organization said, concluding its statement with a call to action. 'May Awdah's memory be a revolution. May we see justice for Awdah, and justice for all Palestinians, within our lifetime.' Earlier this year, Israeli settlers brutalized another member of the Oscar-winning 'No Other Land' team. In March, Palestinian filmmaker Hamdan Ballal was beat in his head and stomach by settlers in the village of Susiya in the Masafer Yatta area. Palestinian residents said the settlers, some wearing masks, some carrying guns and some wearing military uniforms, attacked as residents were breaking their fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, according to the Associated Press. Israeli military and police forces detained the filmmaker on suspicion of hurling rocks at IDF and police. He was released a day later, with bruises on his face and blood on his clothes. As he recalled hearing 'the voice of soldiers laughing at me,' his wife said she felt the international attention surrounding 'No Other Land's' Oscar win prompted settlers to 'attack us more.' The harrowing documentary , which became the subject of controversy in Miami Beach earlier this year, documents Israel's demolition of Palestinian villages in Masafer Yatta and the displacement of their communities in favor of Israeli military training grounds. Since Israel launched its war against Hamas nearly two years ago, more than 60,000 Palestinians have been killed, Gaza's Health Ministry said Tuesday. At least 77 were killed over the past 24 hours, most while seeking food. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
