Federal judge orders Trump administration to unblock pandemic...

WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal judge on Tuesday ordered the Education Department to undo a freeze on the last of the U.S. relief money given to schools to help students recover academically from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Iqra goes on to talk about what she calls the 'extreme, extreme heat', adding: 'Now, I know it is hot here, but I didn't think it would hit over 50 degrees - like, you can't go out without getting heatstroke. Stay at home and literally don't go anywhere.' She has told her 2,850 followers on the site of feeling 'so grateful' for making the move, with one video describing what she called 'Things I've discovered since relocating to Qatar from the UK three years ago'.

Data from the crowdsourced database Numbeo suggests a three-course meal for two people at a mid-range restaurant is £80 in London compared to £37.16 in Doha - which is cheaper than the equivalent cost of £57 in neighbouring Dubai.
