- The leader of Hamas made his first visit to Egypt for more than a month, amid what a source described as intensive talks on a new ceasefire to let aid reach Gaza and get hostages freed. Ismail Haniyeh, who normally resides in Qatar, typically intervenes in diplomacy publicly only when progress seems likely.
- Greece has advised vessels sailing in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden to avoid Yemeni waters, keep only the necessary crew on the bridge and follow alerts issued by authorities. Recent attacks by Houthi militants have forced shipping companies to reroute via the cape of Good Hope to avoid the Suez Canal.

- The EU agreed on new rules to share out the cost and work of hosting migrants and to limit the numbers of people coming in. The laws cover screening migrants when they arrive, handling asylum applications, determining which EU country is responsible for handling applications and ways to handle crises.
- The cause of a wave of cold air that swept into China and rewrote seasonal records for low temperatures may lie further north – a potential weakening in the wall of fast-moving air currents that normally hold back blasts from the Arctic. Meanwhile, earthquake victims are pulled to safety in subfreezing weather.

- The Federal Reserve’s dovish December pivot has boosted the case for the weakening dollar to keep falling into 2024, though strength in the US economy could limit the greenback’s decline. Getting the dollar right is key for analysts and investors, given the US currency’s central role in global finance.
- In another forecast for the year ahead, the US and China on downgrade warnings, Turkey hoping for its first upgrade in a decade and Israel facing its first cut – plus more than 50 elections to navigate – means 2024 could also bring pivotal moves in some sovereign credit ratings.
- Travel within Europe in the busy holiday season is exceeding 2022 levels, despite security warnings from authorities around the region. Christmas markets and popular tourist sites in cities such as Munich and Paris have been bustling lately, albeit with strong security presences.
- An American computer scientist lost his bid to register patents over inventions created by his AI system, in a landmark case in Britain about whether AI can own patent rights. Judge David Kitchin, announcing the Supreme Court ruling, said that under UK patent law “an inventor must be a natural person”.
- Toshiba was delisted after 74 years on the Tokyo exchange, following a decade of upheaval and scandal that brought down one of Japan’s biggest brands and ushered in a buyout and an uncertain future. For more news on financial markets, sign up to the Reuters Business newsletter.

Waddling around the perimeter of a prison in Brazil’s southern state of Santa Catarina, geese have edged out their canine predecessors on patrols to make sure inmates do not escape. Between breaks in their on-site pond, the honking birds patrol a green space between the prison’s inside fence and main outer wall. Staff say the vigilance of the geese make them excellent guard animals.
