U.S. Officials Say Iran’s New Supreme Leader Gravely Wounded Amid Escalating Conflict

Protesters hold posters of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his son, Iran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, during a protest marking al-Quds Day (Jerusalem Day), after Friday prayers at Fatih Mosque in Istanbul. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has confirmed that Iran’s newly appointed Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei , was seriously wounded and likely disfigured during the opening phase of U.S. and Israeli military strikes. Speaking at a Pentagon briefing, Hegseth described Iran’s leadership as “desperate and hiding,” asserting that Khamenei has gone underground following injuries sustained in the attacks.  Reports from multiple outlets indicate that Khamenei has not appeared publicly since the conflict began, fueling speculation about the severity of his condition.

Sliced Justice: Canadians Can Now Claim Their Share of $500M Bread Price-Fixing Settlement

 

Canadians who purchased packaged bread between 2001 and 2021 may now be eligible for compensation from a historic $500 million settlement in the Loblaw bread price-fixing case. The class-action lawsuit, which accused Loblaw Companies Ltd. and its parent company George Weston Ltd. of conspiring to inflate bread prices for over a decade, has resulted in one of the largest antitrust settlements in Canadian history.

The claims process is now open, and the best part? No receipts are required. If you lived in Canada on December 31, 2021, and bought packaged bread from Loblaw-banner stores like No Frills, Real Canadian Superstore, or Your Independent Grocer, you can file a claim online. Quebec residents have a separate claims portal, and both courts in Ontario and Quebec have approved the deal.

While the exact payout per person is still unclear, it will depend on how many valid claims are submitted. If you previously received a $25 Loblaw gift card through the 2018 Loblaw Card Program, that amount will be deducted from your share. And if your calculated payout is under $5, you won’t receive anything.

To file a claim, visit CanadianBreadSettlement.ca or QuebecBreadSettlement.ca depending on your province. The deadline to apply hasn’t been announced yet, but early action is encouraged.

This settlement marks a significant moment in consumer justice, offering Canadians a chance to reclaim a slice of what they overpaid for a staple product.
