The storm forced evacuations and disrupted transportation across the region. Hundreds of thousands were relocated to safety as flooding risks rose. Schools and airports closed in affected areas. Local officials urged residents to remain indoors until the storm subsides.

The strike killed at least 20 people, including five Palestinian journalists. The strikes followed a pattern of escalating violence in the region, with reports of a double-tap attack on the hospital. The journalists were identified as Hussam al-Masri, Mohammad Salama, Mariam Abu Daqqa, Moaz Abu Taha, and Ahmad Abu Aziz. The attack came a day after 64 Palestinians were killed in northern Gaza, primarily in Gaza City.

The decision, backed by President Donald Trump, followed a heated debate on Saturday. The redistricting effort has sparked controversy, with Democrats arguing it undermines fair representation. The new map was passed after a two-week standoff in the state legislature. Voting rights groups are preparing legal challenges.

Ukrainian authorities reported the assault as Moscow accused Kyiv of rejecting peace efforts. The attack focused on disrupting Ukraine’s military supply lines, with significant damage reported in the Zaporizhzhia region. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy indicated openness to compromise for a ceasefire. Russia’s demands include Ukraine ceding the entire Donbas region.

The maps, backed by President Trump, are set for approval by Texas Republicans. The redistricting plan has been controversial, with debates over its impact on voter representation. Democrats returned to Austin to participate in the legislative process. The maps could reshape Texas’ congressional landscape for years.

The move is expected to favor the Republican Party and face legal challenges from several states. Democratic-led states have already filed lawsuits against Trump’s restrictions on crime victim grants. Legal experts argue the president lacks constitutional authority to ban mail-in voting. The proposal has sparked protests across the country.

The crowd was demanding an end to the Gaza war and a hostage release deal. The demonstrations, part of a nationwide stoppage, saw over a million participants across the country. Families of hostages, including Lishay Miran-Lavi, whose husband Omri has been held for 681 days, called for urgent action. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized the protests, claiming they delay hostage releases.

The military will provide tents and shelter equipment to ensure civilian safety. The relocation precedes a planned offensive to seize northern Gaza City, described as a Hamas stronghold. The move has sparked international concern over the fate of Gaza’s 2.2 million residents. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized the operation targets only combatants.

This marks the strongest increase in several months and adding pressure to forecasts for inflationary trends. Economists caution that the uptick could influence Federal Reserve decisions on interest rates. The rise was largely attributed to elevated costs in manufacturing and energy sectors. Analysts warn this could complicate efforts to temper consumer price growth. Market watchers remain alert to data ahead from upcoming economic reports.

This has resulted in the deaths of 123 Palestinians in a single day. A Hamas delegation has arrived in Egypt to negotiate a potential ceasefire. The Israeli military’s actions are part of a plan to displace nearly one million Palestinians to southern camps. At least eight people, including three children, have died from starvation due to a blockade on food supplies. Protests worldwide demand justice for slain Palestinian journalists, including Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif.
