Summary

This week, President Biden issued an executive order on Tuesday that significantly restricts asylum at the U.S.- Mexico border.

On Tuesday, Trump's lawyers asked the judge who oversaw the criminal trial in New York to lift the gag order placed on him. The order prevents Trump from attacking witnesses, the jury, and others involved in the case.

Meanwhile in Gaza, an Israeli strike killed at least forty people when it hit a school-turned-shelter run by the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees. Israel claimed that the school was being used as a Hamas compound, but did not provide evidence.

This week, world leaders gathered in Normandy to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
