Legislation would also sanction key segments of Russian economy, overriding objections from Republican leaders The House passed legislation Thursday that would aid Ukraine and sanction key segments of the Russian economy, overriding objections from Republican leaders who warned the bill would undermine negotiations designed to achieve a comparable but stronger result. The 226-195 vote is a sign of impatience with Donald Trumpโs approach to the war and represents the Houseโs second major foreign policy break with Trump this week. The day before, the House, for the first time, approved a war powers resolution aimed at halting US military action against Iran. Continue reading...
Hearing in New York state case over shooting of healthcare executive sealed at short notice โat request of the defenseโ Luigi Mangioneโs New York state case in the killing of the healthcare executive Brian Thompson descended into secrecy on Wednesday when Judge Gregory Carro held sealed proceedings despite press objections. Mangioneโs state trial for allegedly shooting dead Thompson on a Manhattan Street in late 2024 is scheduled for 8 September. Mangione also faces a federal trial in relation to Thompsonโs killing. The murder triggered an intense manhunt but also prompted an outpouring of public rage against the practices of the for-profit US healthcare industry. Continue reading...
President says he would โlike to meetโ Mojtaba Khamenei, who US officials have previously said was injured in attacks, and says Iran has said it will not have a nuclear weapon Hello and welcome to the Guardianโs continuing coverage of the crisis in the Middle East. Donald Trump has claimed Iran has agreed it will not have a nuclear weapon and that the countryโs supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is involved in negotiations with the US. One person was killed and several people were injured in an Iranian drone attack that targeted Kuwaitโs airport, according to authorities and state media. Flights were suspended this morning but some later resumed after the countryโs civil aviation authority said it assessed the damage at the airport. The attack came hours after US forces fired a Hellfire missile to disable a tanker attempting to break through the American blockade of the strait of Hormuz, and later said they repelled Iranian reprisal attacks in the region and attacked sites on Iranโs Qeshm Island. Iranโs Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) said it attacked the US Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain with missiles and drones in response to the strike on Qeshm, a claim the US militaryโs Central Command (Centcom) denied. Centcom said two Iranian missiles fired at Kuwait โfell short or broke apart enrouteโ, and that three missiles targeting Bahrain were intercepted by US and Bahrain. US forces also said they shot down three one-way attack drones โlaunched by Iran toward civilian mariners that were rightfully transiting regional watersโ but gave no further details. Israel kept up strikes on southern Lebanon, pressing its campaign against Hezbollah a day after Donald Trump asked Benjamin Netanyahu not to attack Beirut to avert further escalation in the three-month-old war. Israeli airstrikes and artillery fire hit south Lebanon on Tuesday, killing at least eight people, Lebanese state media reported. Israelโs military ordered residents of the city of Nabatieh, a major Hezbollah stronghold, to leave ahead of strikes. Lebanonโs government has said it would seek a full ceasefire in a new round of talks with Israeli officials in Washington that began on Tuesday, the latest in a series of face-to-face meetings Beirut has attended despite Hezbollah objections. Hezbollah said it fired artillery shells at Israeli troops near Beaufort and targeted Israeli military vehicles south of Nabatieh on Tuesday. It has not announced cross-border attacks since Monday.

London mayor says Soho Societyโs decision to challenge all new licensing applications โbadโ for city Sadiq Khan, the London mayor, has suggested he will overrule a residentsโ society which has vowed to challenge all new applications for pubs and bars in Soho. The Guardian revealed last week that the Soho Society, a residentsโ group established in 1972 and aimed at โpreserving the character of Sohoโ, voted for a new licensing mandate, meaning it will challenge all new applications for bars and restaurants in the area, including renewals of existing licences.

Despite government pledges, more than 20 authorities will not allow gullies, citing safety, legal and parking concerns The energy secretary, Ed Miliband, has said charger gullies to connect electric cars parked on streets will help cut costs for drivers, yet millions of UK households may be unable to use the simple technology because their local councils will still not allow charging cables to cross the pavement. Despite government promises to โslash red tapeโ and make it easier to put in gullies, more than 20 local authorities appear to be holding out against them. Continue reading...
Soho Society, funded by Westminster council, is ferociously opposing all new proposals, venue owners say A society of residents funded by the council could โdestroy Sohoโs reputation on the international stageโ as Londonโs entertainment district by ferociously objecting to all new bar and restaurant licences, operators in the area have said. The Soho Society, a group of residents established in 1972 aimed at โpreserving the character of Sohoโ, voted in its AGM on Thursday for a new licensing mandate, meaning it will challenge all new applications for bars and restaurants in the area, including renewals of existing licences. It will also object to any venue that wishes to open beyond โcore hoursโ, which Westminster council decrees end at 11pm. Continue reading...
