- Russia launched its biggest missile attack in weeks on Kyiv and across Ukraine, wounding at least 18 people and damaging energy facilities, Ukrainian authorities said. Partial power cuts were also reported in five Ukrainian regions in the west, center and east.
- Meanwhile, Poland is no longer arming Ukraine as it is focusing on building up its own stocks of weapons, the prime minister said. Reuters’ Justyna Pawlak explores how the Polish government is being accused of giving into those on the far right that are tired of the war – listen here.
- Canada this week divulged it had intelligence possibly linking India to the murder of a Sikh leader, the kind of news that usually sparks uproar among allies. Not this time. India is being courted by the US and others as a counterweight to China, and Trudeau’s rare attack is putting Western nations in an awkward position.
- Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has arrived in China’s eastern city of Hangzhou, kicking off his first visit to the Asian nation since 2004 as he makes further strides to end more than a decade of diplomatic isolation amid Western sanctions.

- Countries addressing a climate summit during the UNGA criticized big polluters, and the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said time was running short thanks to the “naked greed” of fossil fuel interests. Separately, a new treaty to protect the world’s oceans was signed by 67 countries.
- US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to work together toward an agreement to forge diplomatic relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia. Both leaders signaled a desire to ease strains in their relationship, but Biden also made clear he was determined to discuss their differences.
- South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said that if Russia helped North Korea enhance its weapons programs in return for assistance for its war in Ukraine, it would be “a direct provocation”. Today, the country imposed fresh sanctions on individuals and entities in relation to North Korea’s arms trade.

- The Bank of England halted its long run of interest rate increases as the British economy slowed, but it said it was not taking a recent fall in inflation for granted. A day after a surprise slowing in Britain’s fast pace of price growth, the BoE’s Monetary Policy Committee voted by a narrow margin of 5-4 to keep Bank Rate at 5.25%.
- The Fed’s plans for a prolonged period of elevated interest rates could continue pressuring stocks and bonds, though some investors doubt the US central bank will stick to its guns. It left interest rates unchanged yesterday. But policymakers bolstered their hawkish stance with a rate increase projected by the end of the year.
- Toshiba said that a $14 billion tender offer from private equity firm Japan Industrial Partners had ended in success – a deal which paves the way for the embattled industrial conglomerate to go private. The deal also puts the company in domestic hands after years of battles with overseas activist investors.
- “Set decorator for 20 years,” said the sign above a table of cupcakes, cookies and other baked goods. “Struggling to pay bills, especially my mortgage.” The signs dotting a parking lot flea market described the hardships of crew members who have been out of work after strikes shut down most production in Los Angeles.

The US Navy is carrying out the biggest overhaul of its top-secret undersea surveillance network since the 1950s in an effort to contain the threat of China’s rising naval power. Reuters was able to piece together details of the plans through interviews with more than a dozen people involved in the effort, and by reviewing hundreds of Navy contracts to identify deals linked to the spy program.

People often laugh when Fathi Mohamed Ahmed tells them she runs the first and only all-female newsroom in Somalia, one of the most dangerous places on the planet to be a reporter. But Bilan, the media house where Ahmed works as chief editor, is far from a punchline, producing a daily mix of hard news and in-depth features for local and sometimes international audiences.
