International affairs. Since we are a daily newsletter focused on U.S. issues and can't go deep on every single topic out there, we sometimes miss important things happening in the rest of the world. So today, we thought it'd be a good idea to mix it up: We're going to use this edition to do a brief round-up of a few of the biggest stories from across the globe that we haven't had a chance to cover.
Protests in Israel - TheWall Street Journal (paywall) has more.
Russian drones attack grain depots in Ukraine - The Associated Press has the storyof the drones in Moscow, while BBChas the attacks on the grain depot.
The conflict in Sudan - AlJazeera has a timeline on the conflict.
Heat wave in southern Europe and northern Africa - CNBChas more on the heat and CBSNews has more on the wildfires.
Elections in Spain - CNNhas more.
FIFA Women’s World Cup - JustWomen’s Sports has a breakdown of the competition, and TheNew Zealand Herald has an editorial on the “crowd pleasing” start.
Mayor of Manta (Ecuador’s 3rd largest city) killed in shooting - TheAssociated Press has more.
