<div style="text-align: center;">
Under the timetable of the ceasefire agreed last week, both sides were scheduled to withdraw their heavy weapons on Tuesday. Instead, both sides were pounding each other with everything they’ve got: artillery, mortars and rockets.</div>

<br></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The woman called the police from a nearby convenience store and was taken to Mount Carmel East hospital to treat her head injuries and receive a rape kit. The DNA found linked to Paul E. Hubert, 54, who was charged with rape.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Following the indictment of one of its senior executives for vandalism of rival Samsung's washing machines, LG has denied all wrongdoing and posted the allegedly damning CCTV footage of the act to YouTube.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The footage, LG says, proves that the executive in question was testing, rather than sabotaging, South Korean rival Samsung's washing machines. Samsung claims the footage is "arbitrarily edited."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The move follows South Korean prosecutors' indictment of Jo Seong-jin, head of LG's Home Appliance and Air Solution company, and two other LG employees on charges they wilfully damaged rival Samsung's washing machines during the IFA tradeshow in Berlin last year. Samsung instigated the investigations by filing suit against LG for property damages and defamation. LG denied the charges and counter-sued Samsung for defamation and tampering evidence, but the prosecutors have declined to follow this counter-suit, citing lack of evidence.</div>

Xabi Alonso was sent off as Bayern Munich failed to break down Shakhtar Donetsk in a goalless draw in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 clash.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A yellow card for bad fouls in each half led to Alonso's 65th-minute dismissal, which encouraged Shakhtar to push forward in search of a winner which did not come.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bayern controlled more than 70 percent of possession while at full strength, and while the red card helped even the contest, the hosts were held to just one shot from long distance in the first half.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Rafinha's first-minute strike was the only effort that Bayern could put on target.</div>

Chelsea battled to a 1-1 draw at Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
PSG were on the front foot for much of the first half, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Edinson Cavani asking questions of Thibaut Courtois in the Chelsea goal, but it was Jose Mourinho's men who broke the deadlock on 36 minutes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
John Terry put in a cross, Gary Cahill provided a neat flick-on, and Branislav Ivanovic headed home to give the visitors an away goal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, less than 10 minutes into the second half, it was 1-1, with Cavani allowed the space to head home Blaise Matuidi's cross.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
PSG continued to press as Chelsea struggled to assert themselves at the Parc des Princes, and the Premier League side had to ride their luck at times as they spent long periods on the back foot, but Ivanovic's header ensured they will have a draw -- and an away goal -- to take back to Stamford Bridge for the second leg.</div>
