Top UK official criticizes Harry over deaths tally

UK Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said he disagrees with the Duke of Sussex's decision to reveal how many Taliban fighters he killed while serving in the British army in Afghanistan, saying “boasting about tallies” lets down others in the armed forces. Harry Prince Harry faced criticism last month from some British security and military figures, as well as the Taliban itself, after he said in his autobiography “Spare” that he had killed 25 of the insurgent group's fighters.

“So, my number: Twenty-five. It wasn't a number that gave me any satisfaction. But neither was it a number that made me feel ashamed,” Harry wrote.

Wallace told British radio station LBC on Thursday that “every veteran makes their own choices about what they want to talk about,” but “the armed forces is not about a tally.”

A former soldier himself, Wallace said, “Boasting about tallies, or talking about tallies ... distorts the fact that the army is a team game,” with the infantry supported by hundreds of people, such as those in the Royal Logistic Corps and in headquarters.

Flaming: court appearance, in court documents filed Thursday. Baldwin and a weapons supervisor were charged last month with felony involuntary manslaughter Baldwin in the shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, who died shortly after being wounded during rehearsals at a ranch on the outskirts of Santa Fe in October 2021.

A judge on Thursday set conditions of release that allow Baldwin to have limited contact with potential witnesses in connection with plans to complete the filming of “Rust.”

Khloe Kardashian being sued by former assistant

For the second time in two years, a Kardashian sister is facing a lawsuit alleging improper treatment of household staff. Matthew Manhard, who began working for Khloe Kardashian in 2019, says he was fired after taking a leave of absence due to a knee injury, according to the lawsuit obtained by “ET.” Manhard alleges he gave notice of his absence but was terminated when he tried to return to work six months later.

He also alleges he was not allowed breaks and not paid overtime.

Kardashian's rep denied these statements, telling “ET,” “It's unfortunate to learn that a former employee would choose to go this route. Matthew was properly classified and compensated for his role.”
