Northwestern University engineers have developed the smallest-ever remote-controlled walking robot — and it comes in the form of a tiny, adorable peekytoe crab. Just a half-millimeter wide, the tiny crabs can bend, twist, crawl, walk, turn and even jump. The researchers also developed millimeter-sized robots resembling inchworms, crickets and beetles. Although the research is exploratory at this point, the researchers believe their technology might bring the field closer to realizing micro-sized robots that can perform practical tasks inside tightly confined spaces.

The accusations against the father are criminal in nature and relate to rape, abuse incapable of resisting sexual intercourse and offenses of domestic violence.
Another shocking case seems to have taken place in Crete, starring a 62-year-old British tourist who allegedly raped his own daughter in Malia.
In particular, a 34-year-old tourist from Britain allegedly went to the AT Hersonissos on the afternoon of Thursday, June 9, to report that she had been raped while she was drunk, without being able to point out, according to information, the perpetrator due to drunkenness.
According to exclusive information of neakriti.gr, for more than two 24 hours the police of the area examined material from the cameras, while investigating the available data. As it turned out, her father had tried to commit indecent acts and inside the bar where they were having fun, hit her in the face and finally, according to information, raped her on a deserted beach.
According to information, finally today, Saturday, June 11, the father of the woman with whom he was on vacation in Malia and who allegedly raped his daughter was finally arrested and arrested.

--- Quote ---Turkey and Greece exchange barbs in each other's language over Aegean Sea islands
An escalating war of words has broken out between Turkey and Greece over islands in the Aegean Sea, with both sides now exchanging accusations and threats in each other's language.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan warned Athens on Thursday to demilitarize the islands that he claims were peacefully ceded to Greece.
Ankara has accused Greek authorities of building a military presence in violation of the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne and the 1947 Paris Treaty, which guarantee the islands' unarmed status.
Erdoğan stated that he was "not joking" and even posted tweets in both Greek and English in a marked harshening of rhetoric against Turkey’s neighbor and historic regional rival.
"This nation is determined," the Turkish president said on the final day of military exercises near Izmir.
Greece has stated that the islands — located within striking distance of a large Turkish landing fleet — cannot be left undefended and have been garrisoned for decades.
While the two countries are NATO allies, they have long engaged in disputes over migration, maritime borders and mineral exploration in the eastern Mediterranean.
Greece maintains Turkey has deliberately misinterpreted international treaties and says it has legal grounds to defend itself against hostile actions by Ankara.
