March 10 (Reuters) - Explosive drone strikes by Haitian security forces targeting gangs have killed over 1,200 people, including 43 adult civilians and 17 children, Human Rights Watch said in a report ‌on Tuesday, adding that operations have ramped up in recent months.

Since last March, Haitian security forces, with ‌support from Vectus Global, have carried out anti-gang operations using quadcopter drones strapped with explosives, often in densely populated parts of the capital ​Port-au-Prince. Vectus Global is a private U.S.-based military company led by Blackwater founder Erik Prince.

Haiti's prime minister's office, defense minister, national police, Vectus, and the U.S. State Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The U.S. charge d'affaires in Haiti told a Senate committee last month that the State Department had licensed Vectus to export its services to Haiti.

A spokesperson ‌for the U.N.-backed Gang Suppression Force in ⁠Haiti declined to comment.

HRW's Americas director, Juanita Goebertus, told Reuters that the rights group had documented unlawful use of lethal force, saying Haiti's partners should stop collaborating with its security ⁠forces until they implement safeguards to protect civilians.

"Haitian authorities should urgently rein in the security forces and private contractors working for them before more children die," she said.

Despite Kenyan, U.S. and U.N. support, armed gangs have expanded well beyond the capital and ​security ​forces have yet to capture a major gang leader. The gangs ​have killed thousands, displaced over a million and ‌crippled the economy.

Drawing from interviews with doctors, victims' relatives, community leaders and videos of the strikes, HRW found drone strikes killed 1,243 people between last March and January 21 of this year.

The strikes also injured 738 people, including 49 alleged civilians, it added, noting that from November to January there were nearly double the number of drone operations compared with the prior three months.

Some local residents told HRW they were afraid to leave their homes due to the ‌drones, which can maneuver between buildings and moving vehicles while their ​controllers track suspects using live video feeds.

Of the child victims, more ​than half were 3-to-12-year-olds killed last September in an ​attack on a sports center where a local gang was distributing gifts, HRW said.

The U.N. ‌office in Haiti (BINUH) has also recorded dozens of ​civilian deaths and injuries from ​drones, including a mother of three killed while selling goods on the street, and another case of a woman who was killed in her own home where two gang members took refuge from a drone.

Last month, ​BINUH said it had no indications ‌the deaths and injuries were being investigated.

HRW said there was no evidence drones were being used widely ​by gangs.

The U.N.'s human rights chief said last October the drone strikes were disproportionate and likely ​unlawful.

HAVANA (AP) — An impromptu sit-in protest at the steps of Havana University on Monday drew a small group of students concerned about their education amid an energy crisis worsened by a U.S. oil blockade of the island, which has reduced classes and is paralyzing the country.

Power outages and transportation shutdowns have forced the university to reduce the number of classes or hold them online, though many students are also struggling with slow and unreliable internet.

"We aren't martyrs for any side; we are university students. So, none of us intended to be here, but there has been no other way," said one of protesters, who didn't want to be identified by name due to fear of government reprisals.

The First Deputy Minister of Higher Education, Modesto Ricardo Gómez, stepped out to speak to the students. He acknowledged the financial difficulties affecting higher education, and said they have been made worse by the current standoff with the Trump administration.

"Today we have been tremendously affected by the criminal and genocidal blockade of the United States government, which, without a thought for the people or our youth, is truly massacring an entire society," Gomez said.

On the main streets of Havana, many people had to walk to work or go shopping Monday. Gasoline is rationed to 20 liters per car, and getting a fill-up involves an elaborate appointment process that can take weeks.

During a summit in Florida with conservative Latin American and Caribbean leaders Saturday, U.S. President Donald Trump said the U.S. will turn its attention to Cuba after the war with Iran and suggested his administration would cut a deal with Havana underscoring Washington's increasingly aggressive stance against the island's communist leadership.

"Great change will soon be coming to Cuba," Trump said at the summit.

Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel on Saturday described the summit as "small, reactionary and neocolonial."

Trump also said there are high-level talks happening between Cuba and the U.S. government.

The Cuban government hasn't confirmed that meetings are happening.

The gathering in Florida, which the White House called the "Shield of the Americas" summit, came just two months after Trump ordered an audacious U.S. military operation to capture Venezuela's then-president, Nicolás Maduro, ending Venezuela's shipment of oil to Cuba.

Following the capture of Maduro, Trump signed an executive order that would impose a tariff on any goods from countries that sell or provide oil to Cuba, a move that further crippled the island plagued by a deepening energy crisis.

Since then, no oil shipment has arrived in Cuba, which only produces one-third of its own energy needs.

- *Marty Supreme* stars Timothée Chalamet as an ego-driven ping-pong prodigy in 1950s New York City.

- Josh Safdie's film is nominated for nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

- It'll be available to stream on HBO Max later this year.

Timothée Chalamet's dynamic performance in *Marty Supreme* earned the 30-year-old star trophies at both the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards. Next up? The Academy Awards.

Chalamet's turn as Marty Mauser in Josh Safdie's dazzling (and dizzying) ping-pong drama scored the actor his third Oscar nod. It's one of nine total nominations for the movie, which is also up for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay.

If you missed Marty's antics in theaters, fear not. Here's how you can watch *Marty Supreme* at home.**

What is Marty Supreme about?

Chalamet leads *Marty Supreme* as Marty Mauser, a hot-shot ping-pong player (and shoe salesman) in New York City in the 1950s. Marty, who was loosely based on real-life ping-pong legend Marty Reisman, schemes his way to competitions across the globe and hustles for pocket cash.

But his dreams of greatness come at a cost to those in his orbit, including an off-and-on lover (Odessa A'zion), a business-minded pal (Luke Manley), and a retired actress who can't resist his charm (Gwyneth Paltrow). Soon, he's run afoul of both a terrifying gangster (Abel Ferrara) and a wealthy pen magnate (*Shark Tank*'s Kevin O'Leary).

Safdie, the co-director of indie hits *Good Time* (2017) and *Uncut Gems* (2019), has a talent for nerve-shredding storytelling and impeccably cast ensembles, blending professional actors with local figures who exude authenticity. *Marty Supreme*'s supporting cast is rounded out by a slew of surprising faces, from rapper Tyler "the Creator" Okonma and fashion icon Isaac Mizrahi to famed highwire artist Philippe Petit and former NBA star George "Iceman" Gervin.

"It always starts with the face," said the film's casting director, Jennifer Venditti, in an interview with *.* "And the thing that's so lucky is Josh [Safdie] and I have this kind of kindred spirit. We see the cinema of real life. I'm looking for life expressed on a face. And it doesn't mean that you have to have lived a long time. It's just like an aliveness. It's in the eyes, it's in the quality of the skin. And it pulls you in. It makes you want to know more."**

Where can I watch Marty Supreme?

As of this writing, *Marty Supreme* is available to rent or buy on platforms like Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV.**

When does Marty Supreme arrive on HBO Max?

HBO Max confirmed in January 2026 that *Marty Supreme* was heading to the platform as part of the streamer's ongoing partnership with A24, the studio behind Safdie's film.

An exact date has yet to be announced, but A24 films typically hit the streamer within three to five months of their theatrical debut. For example, the Oscar-nominated *If I Had Legs I'd Kick You*, also produced by A24, hit the streamer in late January 2026 after debuting in theaters on Oct. 10, 2025. *The Brutalist*, meanwhile, opened in December 2024 and premiered on HBO Max in May 2025.

If that trend continues, you can expect to see *Marty Supreme*, which premiered on Christmas Day in 2025, streaming on HBO Max sometime in April or May of this year.**

A former contestant on *America's Got Talent** *just landed a three-chair spin on *The Voice: Battle of Champions*.

Coaches Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Adam Levine all wanted Ashley Marina, an 18-year-old barista from Pittsburgh, Pa., on their teams when she auditioned on Monday's episode with an original song, "Tonight I Wanna Cry."

"I could hear country in there," Clarkson said after her performance, "but I could also hear other influences musically, which I think is really important. You were pitchy after we turned around, [but] I don't if that's cause you got nervous."

It was the nerves, Marina told Clarkson.

Marina also explained that she listens "to a little bit of everything" and is a fan of the covers the host performs on her *The Kelly Clarkson Show*.

"I think you have a killer voice," the "Since U Been Gone" singer said, "and I would love to help you tackle those nerves, girl."

Marina had explained ahead of her audition that she appeared on *America's Got Talent *when she was 12, but that she'd been cut after the second round. She sang an original then, too. She's now a commercial music major at a school in Nashville.

But Clarkson wasn't the only one who was a fan of Marina.

It was early into her song when Levine, Legend, and Clarkson slammed their buzzers in quick succession. Legend noted that Marina "got a little giddy" when Levine said hello to her.

"The Blind Auditions are such a grueling process, because we're listening to so much," the Maroon 5 frontman said. "We're taking so much in. It almost gets harder to really be able to identify what's truly great. And what's really nice is when you have a moment like listening to you. You absolutely know that what you're listening to is really special. You tackling the nerves and you getting past that literally is the formula to do well and succeed on the show. That's what we're here for."

Legend raved about Marina's pipes, too.

"We heard your tone, and we heard the different parts of your voice, and it was really beautiful, and it was really tasteful, and it was really musical," the "All of Me" artist said. "And the fact that you're doing all that at the age of 18 is just so impressive."

In the end, Marina decided to join Team Legend.

All three of the coaches finalized their rosters of 10 contestants they'll take into the next round on the episode.

Host Carson Daly also announced that Clarkson won the Triple Chair Competition in a new part of the contest. She and Levine actually tied, winning the most contestants who received three-chair turns, but Clarkson had won the tiebreaker of the most two-chair turns. Her prize is that she'll have a Super Steal in the Battle Rounds.

*The Voice* airs Mondays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.

- Whoopi Goldberg staunchly criticized Donald Trump for wearing a hat while saluting dead American soldiers.

- Seven service members have been killed following the United States' attack on Iran.

- Sunny Hostin also called Trump's salute "despicable" compared to Barack Obama's.

*The View** *cohost Whoopi Goldberg has taken a firm stand against what she suggested was Donald Trump's disrespectful gesture toward dead United States service members over the weekend.

The Oscar-winning actress launched Monday's live episode by introducing a Hot Topics discussion reacting to fallout from America's recent military offensive on Iran, which many have speculated could lead to a new wave of U.S. troops on the ground in the Middle East.

Goldberg began the conversation with a warning to Trump, after he was photographed over the weekend at Dover Air Force Base, wearing a hat while saluting American service members recently killed in the region.

"It really bugged me, and maybe I'm just being picky. When those caskets came off that plane? Take your damn hat off. Take your damn hat off," Goldberg stressed to Trump, after he was pictured wearing a white hat as caskets were taken off an aircraft. "I didn't understand why nobody pulled his coat tail and said, 'Sir, just out of respect?'"**

Panelist Sunny Hostin then recalled, "President Obama actually was the first president to preside over that dignified transfer and he stood there for a 45-minute salute, without a hat on, and with a suit on. It was a very somber moment. It wasn't about him, it was about the loss of our soldiers who gave their life for this country."

Hostin added, "What I saw when I saw [the most recent] dignified transfer was, it was all about Trump, and I thought that was despicable."

Guest cohost Sheryl Underwood, a Republican filling in for Alyssa Farah Griffin (who's out on maternity leave), brought her own experience serving in the Air Force Reserve to the table as she commented on Trump's behavior.

"Now we're in something that you're not telling us why, and I put on a uniform to serve this country and I always wanted to know why I'm doing this," Underwood said of the strikes on Iran. "I do believe when they say you should not follow an unlawful order. Why is this not impeachable? And where are the politicians to say this dude doesn't have it all the way together."

She said that "we should care more about [the soldiers] than someone's personal interest if you're going to wage war," and told Trump, "You are putting American lives and soldiers at risk."

After a commercial break, Goldberg doubled down on her criticism, especially over the thought of American troops entering the region on the ground.

"His kids aren't going," Goldberg said during the telecast. "I don't want anybody's son and daughter to go, because this is not what we should be doing."

Underwood additionally clarified that the show's panel stood in support of the nation's troops, telling the audience, "We do not want our troops to feel like we do not care for what they're doing. We applaud them for standing in the gap for us."

Speaking on the ignited conflict in the Middle East, Defense Sec. Pete Hegseth recently told *60 Minutes *of a potential ground invasion that, "President Trump knows — I know — you don't tell the enemy, you don't tell the press, you don't tell anybody what your limits would be on an operation. We're willing to go as far as we need to in order to be successful."

In a March 7 conference with reporters, Trump said of a potential ground offensive: "Could there be? Possibly. For very good reason. It would have to be a very good reason. If we ever did that, they'd be so decimated that they wouldn't be able to fight at the ground level."

DeCarlo had several health issues, including brain cancer, which led to canceled shows and a focus on recovery in late 2025

"He fought with incredible strength and courage right up until the very end," the late musician's family shared

Tommy DeCarlo, a Boston fan who became the rock band's lead singer following the death of their original singer, Brad Delp, has died. He was 60.

"It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our Dad, Tommy DeCarlo, on Monday, March 9th, 2026," a message on DeCarlo's social media account reads.

"After being diagnosed with brain cancer last September, he fought with incredible strength and courage right up until the very end," the message continues.

"During this difficult time, we kindly ask that friends and fans respect our family's privacy as we grieve and support one another," the statement signed "with love" by his children, Annie, Talia and Tommy Jr., reads. "Rest in peace, Dad."

In a statement to PEOPLE, Boston lead guitarist and founding member Tom Scholz remembered DeCarlo as a "competitive athlete and yet a gentle soul who is remembered by his son and many others as a sweet man who did not deserve to be cut down at such a young age. It's not surprising that one of his favorite BOSTON songs to sing was 'To Be a Man.' "

"While many people will remember Tommy giving his audience amazing live performances, I will remember him as the incredible singer who appeared out of nowhere to rescue BOSTON in 2007, and gave all of us with the band 10 additional years of performing our most memorable live shows," Scholz continued. "Rest in peace Tommy, you did know what it took to be a man."

According to a GoFundMe previously created for DeCarlo, the late musician "suffered a sudden brain bleed and underwent an emergency craniotomy" in late September 2025. During surgery, doctors discovered two melanoma masses on his brain and another spot on his lungs, the fundraiser notes.

"He amazed us by recovering from the surgery and beginning treatment, but before he could complete it, he had another brain bleed and was hospitalized from November 27th to December 27th," the fundraiser continued.

In October 2025, DeCarlo shared with his fans that he had "been facing some unexpected health issues that have required me to step back and focus on my well-being." Boston then canceled their remaining 2025 shows.

The performer said at the time that while it was "not an easy choice" to step away from performing, it was "important that I take the time I need to recover and get back to feeling my best, so that when I return to the stage, I can give you everything I've got."

Before joining Boston, DeCarlo worked at a North Carolina Home Depot as a credit manager, USA Today reported. He was also a self-taught piano player and choir singer who was inspired by Delp, reported Rolling Stone.

DeCarlo posted Boston covers on MySpace and wrote an original song honoring Delp, according to his biography on the Boston website. A friend of his suggested DeCarlo send a MySpace link to Boston's team. Weeks later, Scholz heard DeCarlo's cover of "Don't Look Back" and was impressed. Scholz asked him to play with the band during a tribute concert for Delp, who died in 2007.

DeCarlo was soon hired to sing with the band, singing hits like "More Than a Feeling," "Rock and Roll Band" and "Peace of Mind" to cheering fans. They also recorded the album Life, Love & Hope, the only Boston album featuring DeCarlo, in 2013.

The musician also formed the band DECARLO with his son in 2012, MLive reported.

The band released its first album in 2020, and DeCarlo released an audiobook, Unlikely Rockstar – The Tommy DeCarlo Story, per the outlet.

Billy Bob Thornton certainly steals the show in Landman, but you have to hand it to his co-stars as well.

Each supporting player has their moments to shine, including Michelle Randolph, who plays Ainsley Norris. If the character's last name sounds familiar, yes — you recall correctly: She's the daughter of Thornton's wise-cracking Tommy.

In a new interview, Randolph, 28, opened up about her experience on Taylor Sheridan's hit series thus far and what might be in store for the highly anticipated third season — for Ainsley in particular, as her once-sheltered character takes the next step in her scholastic career.

"Well, we know who Ainsley is when she is around her family and comfortable. So I'm looking forward to seeing and discovering who she is when she goes to college and she's around her peers and out of her comfort zone," Randolph told The Hollywood Reporter in an article published Sunday, March 8. "I think we saw speckles of that in season two toward the end."

She continued, "What's cool about growing with a character is, especially on a TV show, you get to meet them at different points in their life. I'm learning who Ainsley is as she's learning who she is. That makes me excited to get back."

Randolph also weighed in on what she wants to see going forward for Landman.

"I have so many ideas. I think we all do, but I really trust Taylor [Sheridan's] vision for the story," she told THR. "This will be going into my fifth season of television with him, and I have learned to trust him and have no expectations for what I think should happen."

Fans might also recognize the rising star from the opening sequence of Scream 7, which had a historic debut on Friday, February 27 — pulling in $28.8 million on opening day, including $7.8 million from Thursday previews.
