Summary

Today’s Headlines: Israel’s cabinet is set to vote on a ceasefire deal with Hezbollah, a move that’s already facing backlash from Netanyahu’s far-right allies. Meanwhile, the government has sanctioned the newspaper Haaretz for its critical war coverage, and investigations continue into the antisemitic murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan in the UAE. In Russia, Putin has lowered the threshold for nuclear strikes and warned that the war in Ukraine has taken on a “global” scope. NATO is also on high alert over rising Russian cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure. Back in the U.S., the DOJ dropped federal charges against Trump related to January 6 and classified documents. At the same time, a third woman in Texas has died due to delays in care caused by the state’s abortion ban, further exposing the deadly impact of restrictive policies.
