Liquid water may have been detected on Mars! But it's *deep* - within fractured rock 10-20 km below the surface

This is not a direct detection: they've basically looked at the combination of physical properties that best explain the seismic velocities measured by the InSight lander. Reproducing those velocities only seems to be possible if there's lots of water present.
