Summary

Today’s Headlines: Tensions remain high as Israel continues its ground offensive in Lebanon and retaliates against Iran’s missile strike, which damaged a key airbase. While there were no casualties from the strike, Israel faces economic pressure with credit downgrades. Meanwhile, Hurricane Helene has left nearly 200 dead, millions without power, and climate change linked to its intensity.
