Resumes

• Sony's PlayStation Network experienced a brief outage on March 23, 2026, disrupting online services for PS5 and PS4 users across the U.S. • The downtime affected multiplayer gaming, account access, and store functions for several hours. • Service restoration completed by evening, with Sony attributing issue to network overload.

• The Trump administration reopened the US embassy in Caracas on Saturday, marking the first diplomatic presence since 2019, with the American flag raised as part of resumed diplomatic relations with Venezuela. • The embassy reopening follows a deadly US military strike in early January that led to the abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Celia Flores, a dramatic shift in bilateral relations. • The diplomatic resumption represents a significant policy reversal in the Trump administration's approach to Venezuela after years of sanctions and confrontational posturing.
