  LONDON —  King Charles III has been crowned  monarch of the United Kingdom of Britain and Northern Ireland on Saturday, in a ceremony steeped in a millennia More of  tradition and pageantry .

  Prosecutors investigating Donald Trump's handling of classified documents are examining how his team responded to a request for security footage from his Florida estate. More The Department of Justice requested the video last summer and, according to CNN, investigators are seeking to question several top aides about it. The investigation, led by Special Counsel Jack Smith, is also assessing whether Mr Trump obstructed the probe. The former president denies wrongdoing. The justice department issued a subpoena for the security camera footage last June. The video showed aides moving boxes from a storage room that may have held classified documents, the BBC's US partner, CBS News, previously reported. But reports suggest investigators are now working to establish why there are gaps in the provided video and why some footage is missing or unavailable. The investigation has been ramping up in recent weeks as prosecutors seek more information about who had access to classified docu

  Ottawa-based Shopify Inc. said on Thursday it would cut 20 per cent of its workforce, the second major round of layoffs at the e-commerce company in under a year. "This means some of you will leave Shopify today," CEO Tobi Lutke told staff in a memo. "I recognize the crushing impact this decision has on some of you, and did not make this decision lightly." Affected employees have already been advised, via email, if they still have a job. Everyone will receive a minimum of 16 weeks severance plus a week for every year they worked at the company.  Part of the cuts come from Shopify's sale of its logistics division to Flexport, based in Silicon Valley, Calif.  Only last year, Shopify was beefing up its logistics unit, buying delivery firm Deliverr for more than $2 billion. But the company has decided to go in a new direction, handing the entire logistics business to Flexport in exchange for a 13 per cent stake in the company.  Shopify scraps plans to move into 24

Serbian mass shootings: President vows crackdown on gun ownership More Serbia's president has pledged "an almost complete disarming" of the country, after the second mass shooting there in 48 hours. Aleksandar Vucic announced a host of new strict weapons control measures, including more frequent background checks on gun owners. On Friday, a man was arrested after opening fire from a moving car - killing eight and injuring 14. That shooting came soon after a boy killed nine people at a school. Wednesday's attack, where the thirteen-year-old shot dead eight fellow pupils at his school in Belgrade, as well as a security guard, was Serbia's worst shooting in years. The second incident occurred in the early hours of Friday near the town of Mladenovac, 60km (37 miles) south of Belgrade, when the shooter opened fire from a moving car. Reports on local media say the suspect - who the interior ministry said was born in 2002 - started firing at people with an automatic weap
