- Representatives from nearly 200 countries agreed at the COP28 climate summit to begin reducing global consumption of fossil fuels to avert the worst of climate change, a first of its kind deal signaling the eventual end of the oil age. We look at how COP28’s final hours of climate negotiations unfolded.
- Israel faced growing diplomatic isolation in its war against Hamas as the United Nations demanded an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza and US President Joe Biden told the longtime ally its “indiscriminate” bombing of civilians was hurting international support.
- A majority of Americans agree with Biden on issues including abortion rights, capping insulin prices and hiking taxes on billionaires, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found, but his campaign faces a tough task in getting angry voters to care.
- Russia’s second missile assault on Kyiv this week injured at least 53 people, damaging homes and a children’s hospital, Ukrainian officials said, as President Volodymyr Zelenskiy pleaded in Washington for more help for his country.
- British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak avoided defeat in parliament on an emergency bill to revive his plan to send asylum seekers to Rwanda, seeing off a revolt by dozens of his lawmakers. Bureau Chief Kate Holton speaks to the Reuters World News podcast about Sunak’s immigration dilemma.

Natalia Yermakova’s husband, Alexander, has been fighting in Ukraine for over a year after responding to President Vladimir Putin’s mobilization call. Wounded on the battlefield, he was operated on and then sent back to the front after recovering.
Now his wife is doing her own bit for the war effort: toiling as a volunteer in a “Family Battalion”. She is one of many relatives of mobilized men in Moscow who give up their free time to help out.
As Putin positions himself to win a fifth presidential term, it is people like Yermakova – who like many Russians supports the “special military operation” in Ukraine – whom the president is relying on to hold his support base together.

Dreaming of making it big in baseball, teenage brothers An Seung-han and An Seung-young travelled hundreds of miles away from home to remote Deokjeok island, where the sport and their team, are now the closest thing they have to a family.
The boys are among a few dozen teenagers who have left the bright lights of some of South Korea’s biggest cities to join a specialized sports academy set up by Kim Hak-yong, former manager of the elite Dongguk University team.
