      <title>Sánchez narrowly leads Fujimori in Peru vote count</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/11</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Left-wing candidate Roberto Sánchez narrowly led conservative Keiko Fujimori in Peru’s presidential runoff as vote counting continued on Tuesday. With about 95% of tally sheets processed, Sánchez had about 50.1% of the vote to Fujimori’s 49.9%, a margin of roughly 40,000 to 41,000 votes. The result remained unresolved because overseas ballots and remote-region tally sheets had not been fully counted. Fujimori led early returns from Lima, one of her strongholds, before Sánchez gained ground as votes arrived from rural and Andean areas where his support was stronger. The contest will decide Peru’s ninth president in a decade, after a campaign dominated by crime, political instability and distrust in institutions. The count still faces legal and logistical steps: election authorities must review challenged or observed tally sheets involving roughly 400,000 to 450,000 votes, and several sources said the official proclamation could take days or extend into July. The new president is scheduled to take office on July 28, Peru’s Independence Day.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/1PGoAe_Hcwhu3o90s_cC_jFb1lU-rqLXpcj617gP58Qq9l4oeW8cStOlmxzrmqZFvC3jWE1aPJuLQQglYZC5hbqZeyFOCaOVDRoKzukbzp2geFU6Of-AWON7EG_pk-INzpRby8IyOwjoGD0x8P2HNBB4jd_8sqZY5nNhAKq3PNFPRjWQGIJh7m5aXA4xR7uPQkOkx5vQapkXfPAP9lut2MTjMNVbNZHHn1vgMSp2yMconvsJtDQDjLR0083qZTomwzA5_pT7ZA' alt='Keiko Fujimori and Roberto Sánchez in coverage of Peru’s presidential runoff' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Quick count: An Ipsos and Transparencia quick count released Sunday night showed a technical tie, with Sánchez at 50.3% and Fujimori at 49.7%, within the margin of error. Both candidates urged caution until all votes are tallied.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Overseas votes: More than 1 million Peruvians were eligible to vote abroad, and the foreign vote has historically favored the right, making it a key remaining variable for Fujimori.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Governing limits: Tiziano Breda of ACLED told France 24 that Peru’s institutional weaknesses and fragmented Congress mean neither candidate is likely to have strong parliamentary support for major reforms.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Market reaction: Reuters reported that U.S.-listed shares of Peruvian companies fell as Sánchez edged ahead, with miner Buenaventura down 1.7% and Credicorp also lower.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Roberto Burneo, Peru’s chief electoral authority: Burneo asked voters and political organizations to “act with democratic responsibility” while the tally continued and said the outcome would be available within 30 days. (&lt;a href='https://abcnews.com/International/wireStory/fujimori-nationalist-snchez-virtually-tied-vote-count-continues-133686704'&gt;ABC News&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Roberto Sánchez campaign: Sánchez said he was confident but would wait for 100% of the vote before claiming the result, adding that Peru’s political instability needed to stop. (&lt;a href='https://japantoday.com/category/world/sanchez-takes-lead-in-peru%27s-tight-presidential-vote-as-stocks-dip'&gt;Japan Today&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Keiko Fujimori campaign: Fujimori called for patience from supporters after losing her early lead and said she would wait until the final vote was counted. (&lt;a href='https://japantoday.com/category/world/sanchez-takes-lead-in-peru%27s-tight-presidential-vote-as-stocks-dip'&gt;Japan Today&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Tiziano Breda, ACLED: Breda said Peru’s instability stems from institutional weaknesses as well as electoral rivalry, and said the return of a bicameral legislature could help restrain the cycle of congressional removals of presidents.

      <title>Trump nominates former lawyer Blanche for attorney general</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/10</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;President Trump formally sent Todd Blanche’s nomination to the Senate on June 8 to serve as U.S. attorney general on a permanent basis, the White House said. Blanche, previously one of Trump’s personal lawyers, has been acting attorney general since the April firing of Pam Bondi, and the post requires Senate confirmation. The nomination opens a confirmation fight in a Senate controlled 53-47 by Republicans. Blanche would need a majority vote and likely near-unanimous Republican support if Democrats oppose him. His tenure as acting attorney general has drawn questions over the Justice Department’s now-abandoned plan for a nearly $1.8 billion fund for people Trump has described as victims of government “weaponization,” his handling of Jeffrey Epstein-related files, and prosecutions or investigations involving figures identified in the articles as Trump opponents. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said the committee’s work on the nomination was underway, while other Republican senators signaled they would question Blanche about the fund.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/hirtiyGi8WqO9QHvOCGd3laSGX_neACZM_7LJRLXryp3zrQw_h2Z8GJfaYb13THvgmmzGmkZB2ZNOlkiC0agmgLbuJGVQtpRTJ2JP9GgQGW5nLOY4aWZDyD3N9zsxd_tKO6999Sg-ZHoKaZhKz52vJcw5hHRevuCb_7JDVn0mFeSkaQIZPHF_nS6jyePiNxx0sMPArUU9rY3gSC69OQMkW6HuAt2axRaVsLsiXEtGkgdLS7WFfsItIlNO7hvDOfA42kKUILKTwrAfOTbcA' alt='Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche testifies during a House Appropriations subcommittee oversight hearing on the Justice Department on Capitol Hill in Washington, June 2, 2026.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Vacancies law: The Federal Vacancies Reform Act generally limits temporary agency heads to 210 days, and Blanche had served about 67 days as acting attorney general as of June 8.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Prior vote: The Senate confirmed Blanche as deputy attorney general in a party-line vote with all Democrats opposed.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;GOP scrutiny: Republican Sen. Thom Tillis had previously voiced skepticism about Blanche over the fund and a case involving former FBI Director James Comey.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;DOJ actions: Reuters reported that Trump has looked favorably on Blanche’s moves as acting attorney general, including indictments against Trump opponents.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Blanche is well-qualified and has shown his dedication to restoring law and order across our country. The Senate Judiciary Committee’s work to process Blanche’s nomination is underway. - Chuck Grassley&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sen. Chuck Grassley: Grassley, the Republican chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said he supported Blanche and that the committee had begun processing the nomination, though he did not say how fast it would move.

Adam Schiff: Schiff called for the Senate to “vigorously oppose” Blanche and said Blanche was still acting as Trump’s criminal defense lawyer. (&lt;a href='https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2026/jun/08/us-politics-latest-news-updates-trump-california-governor-midterm-elections'&gt;The Guardian&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sen. John Cornyn: Cornyn, a Republican member of the Judiciary Committee, said he planned to ask Blanche about his role in the proposed anti-weaponization fund.

Dick Durbin: Durbin, the top Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, criticized Trump’s choice, calling it corrupt in a Reuters report carried by KSL.

      <title>Pentagon adds Alibaba, BYD, Baidu to China list</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/9</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The U.S. Defense Department updated its Section 1260H list of Chinese companies it identifies as linked to China’s military on Monday, adding Alibaba, BYD, Baidu and other major technology and industrial firms. The list, required by Congress in 2021, identifies companies the Pentagon considers connected to the People’s Liberation Army or China’s defense industrial base, including firms Washington says contribute through Beijing’s military-civil fusion strategy. The updated roster includes 188 Chinese entities, up from roughly 130 or 134 in 2025, and spans sectors including e-commerce, electric vehicles, artificial intelligence, semiconductors, robotics, biotechnology, telecoms, solar and batteries. Inclusion does not by itself impose broad sanctions, but it bars or restricts U.S. Defense Department contracting with listed entities and can affect reputations, research funding and business dealings with U.S. government suppliers. China’s embassy in Washington called the designations “discriminatory” and accused the U.S. government of overstretching national security.

      <title>France and Germany scrap €100 billion fighter project</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/8</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;France and Germany have agreed to abandon the joint fighter aircraft element of the Future Combat Air System after concluding that Dassault Aviation and Airbus could not resolve disputes over a common combat jet, German and French officials said Monday. Chancellor Friedrich Merz and President Emmanuel Macron reached that conclusion after months of deadlock between the companies, with Berlin saying the firms “will not be able to come together on building a joint combat aircraft”. The FCAS program was launched in 2017 to replace France’s Rafale jets and the Eurofighter aircraft used by Germany and Spain, with the next-generation system planned for around 2040. The wider project included a core fighter, drones and a classified network often described as a combat cloud, but officials said work on the networking and drone-related elements would continue as a European “system of systems”.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/VPHR_KoBZzw3a7EBTuWPQVROH3k1YLZ_m2ltKDnMJmcHi6vWCg2DfUJw_y6F0UbwWK3yqdnVx-lpID9CZPdBSKC1FkyXc3XUjn95aryTUoLKW6BPSBult2jMQP75mZkttBqYyThzapud1GWFQqmmMK9YCxP_vpEjpocrg9gsCuCMZz2TJxjWuYyUP0cy3BZ_jFN1kp0Wv4tq1F_XoogG7ctocatZ0dvdQDl7wI-ex1sqValQXtSqF96BCKTd5EgRfo8_K4OZPNmENx-mHQ' alt='A scale model of the Franco-German-Spanish Future Combat Air System in Paris in 2020.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Industrial disputes: Dassault sought greater control over the fighter aircraft work, while Airbus pushed for a more equal partnership covering workshare, technology transfer and intellectual-property arrangements.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Diverging requirements: Merz questioned whether Germany needed a manned sixth-generation fighter and said Berlin did not require a nuclear-capable aircraft that could operate from a carrier.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Political talks: Merz and Macron discussed the stalled project last week in Montenegro on the sidelines of an EU-Western Balkans summit, French and German officials said.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Spanish role: Airbus represented German and Spanish interests in the trilateral program, while Dassault Aviation represented France.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;German government: A German official said Merz advised Macron not to continue pursuing a joint fighter jet after concluding that the companies could not agree on the aircraft.

      <title>ICC suspends chief prosecutor Karim Khan over misconduct claims</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/7</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The 21-member bureau of the Assembly of States Parties suspended International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Karim Khan with immediate effect after referring disciplinary proceedings over sexual misconduct allegations to all ICC member states. The bureau said it approved the suspension by qualified majority and that the decision was &amp;quot;not an indication of the final outcome&amp;quot;. The case now goes before the Assembly of States Parties, which represents the ICC&amp;#x27;s 125 member states and will hold a special session to decide whether Khan should remain in office. Reuters cited a diplomatic source briefed on the decision as saying the bureau found serious misconduct after an 18-month probe into allegations of non-consensual sexual interactions with a lawyer in Khan&amp;#x27;s office and recommended removal; the bureau&amp;#x27;s public statement did not include those details and said the documentation would remain confidential. Khan has repeatedly denied wrongdoing and stepped aside in May 2025 while the inquiry proceeded. Sources cited by Reuters said UN investigators found a &amp;quot;factual basis&amp;quot; for allegations made by a female aide, while a separate review by three judges said the evidence was not sufficient to establish the allegations beyond a reasonable doubt.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/uiWmBuXRFzryOdYHTMva-CoOJpA9XDsd_g3mQ9g9zdOXK3PCIIatow9x9UnTlFZlGyAHPmhN37KkbQM7-NDwHMJAdNOadrj3_1rAojB6m9ggAvDSwq0TduEoBPmDCERpZnUL8GcefDDlNDx8H_e-36iM8vu_E3Sg_5w2SiH9mAVJvC3NQg8IbQtxfqdj5zaOs-s6yn0aj-fsWwbSSwcqaVFEoOg9212t1y_UlSBAhh_MG2psRyUFBxrvXAp-_W6la-WhKR9Ykxx5GpnShw' alt='ICC prosecutor Karim Khan&amp;#x27;s fate is to be decided in a vote by all 125 ICC member states.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Allegations: A copy of a UN oversight report seen by the Associated Press says Khan repeatedly harassed a female ICC employee over an extended period and had non-consensual sexual contact in his office, at his residence and while on mission.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Process precedent: The case is described as unprecedented for the court, and the Assembly of States Parties has had to create rules to handle it.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Removal threshold: The special session is to be convened as soon as possible, and a majority of ICC member states would need to support removal for Khan to lose the post.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Public profile: Khan has been among the ICC&amp;#x27;s most visible officials; his office sought warrants involving Netanyahu, Gallant, senior Hamas leaders and Putin.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The decision is unlawful, procedurally unfair and unsupported by evidence - Karim Khan&amp;#x27;s lawyers&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Bureau of the Assembly of States Parties: The ICC oversight bureau said it based its decision on the UN investigation report, underlying evidence, advice from an ad hoc panel of judicial experts and written submissions, and said the suspension did not determine the final outcome.

      <title>US Apache crashes near Hormuz, crew rescued safely</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/6</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A U.S. Army Apache attack helicopter went down near the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, and its two crew members were rescued safely, The New York Times reported, citing two people briefed on the incident. President Trump confirmed early Tuesday that the crew was uninjured, telling reporters at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, “The pilots are fine” and “Nobody injured”. The cause was not immediately clear. Reporting cited possible Iranian fire, mechanical failure or another problem. Reuters said the White House, the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Central Command did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The incident followed renewed Iran-Israel exchanges the previous day and occurred while U.S. officials were seeking to turn an April ceasefire in the Iran war into a permanent settlement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/o-6AXDCrvfeOAsyPFQrWuDBjYuTesdI4bmV7Sebj-T-ahVwT8KHfFCl2NwO33bBF_ICDXWMzXwYOpBcOqy_oVEL4I5YIVzwDHKlp1hvJeRS5254TtXyzgZs0gkvOxRe_z9A5f9BjJ8Rycp2Z6mj8DeRByOlh00xbK9gFRLn-tdaz-haEWfdHYXKJHprE-6LGsWVpI-ue29X-awuRaPKT_vBnHubFcXQZkVChv_AqdsdCLMNzP9zxLz0CfJe0UuGpKqghfAZeanAOzAtW9Q' alt='U.S. Army soldiers flying an Apache helicopter at the Joint Readiness Training Center.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Strategic waterway: AP and NDTV reported that Iran has effectively restricted much commercial traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Public opinion: A recent YouGov/Economist poll found that nearly seven in 10 Americans want the United States to make a deal as quickly as possible to end the war, KOAT reported.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Diplomatic track: President Trump said Washington was close to a “very, very good, strong, powerful deal” with Iran. He said economic pressure and a blockade had been more effective than bombing in pushing Tehran toward an agreement.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The pilots are fine.

      <title>US judge blocks Trump’s $100,000 H-1B visa fee</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/5</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A federal judge in Boston struck down President Trump’s $100,000 fee on new H-1B visas for highly skilled foreign workers, ruling Monday that the charge was an unlawful tax that Congress had not authorized. U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin ruled in a lawsuit brought by 20 Democratic state attorneys general, finding that the executive branch exceeded its authority and violated the Administrative Procedure Act. The Trump administration announced the fee in September 2025 as part of an effort to restrict use of the H-1B program, saying the measure would prevent foreign workers from taking American jobs and address alleged misuse of the visa category. The administration argued in court that the charge was a lawful monetary penalty under federal immigration law, but Sorokin wrote that “the substance and application of the $100,000 payment reveal that it is a tax, regardless of what the payment is called”. The ruling bars the State Department and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services from implementing the policy, although related litigation remains active after another federal judge upheld the fee in a separate case now on appeal. The White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The Department of Homeland Security called the decision “blatant judicial activism” and defended the administration’s changes to the employment-based visa program.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/_zpKA_xIq78sFep3LUURAQ3wInGqexox3RpCJmfOZonCu2AArwUJFXYLPjsAV1Wol7kE1Iy33ClHrXynORInRXDZxHyabjcwx8TqXdEeeo273jnu1Nql0l1oUrKknHbxLFgHt-92ZElfzaOebQ9hjy89A7Jivasalkghkk-BfHSX0XfY4U0luAM5tzp4twYXcml0f6VgxLxoA-C0rLeDPPYSVh_sZG86IXK3CJNJ5SlECzqUWzvj8ajm67M6iBqKxhkHiig4tSRbC7e3Mg' alt='A U.S. flag and U.S. H-1B Visa application forms are seen in this illustration taken September 22, 2025.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Visa allocation: The H-1B program provides 65,000 visas annually, plus 20,000 for workers with advanced degrees; approvals generally last three to six years.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;India link: Workers from India receive nearly three-quarters of H-1B approvals, making Indian professionals the largest group affected by the fee dispute.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Public services: The states said the fee would hinder hiring at public universities, schools and hospitals; Alaska officials said 341 of the state&amp;#x27;s 573 international teachers use H-1B visas.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Legal split: A separate federal judge upheld the $100,000 fee in December, creating contradictory lower-court rulings awaiting resolution in three appellate circuits.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The Court finds that the Policy imposes a tax on H-1B petitions without the requisite delegation by Congress - U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Department of Homeland Security: The department called Sorokin’s decision “blatant judicial activism” and said the H-1B changes were intended to address program integrity and the impact on the U.S. workforce.

      <title>Philippines quake kills at least 37 in Mindanao</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/3</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck off Mindanao in the southern Philippines at 7:37 a.m. local time Monday, killing at least 37 people, injuring hundreds and damaging buildings in and around General Santos and Sarangani province. The quake was centered offshore near Sarangani, south of General Santos, and tremors were felt across Mindanao and as far as Manado on Indonesia’s Sulawesi island. Rescuers searched collapsed structures on Tuesday, including a commercial building in General Santos where two people were still believed trapped after two others were pulled out alive and another person was found dead. Officials said deaths resulted largely from falling debris, building collapses and landslides, including a deadly slide in Glan, Sarangani, while waves up to about 1.4 meters above tide level were measured in the Philippines with only limited tsunami damage reported. Civil defense authorities said more than 20,000 people were displaced, many after leaving homes for emergency shelters or higher ground because of tsunami fears. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ordered agencies to prepare relief supplies and evacuation centers and said the national government would not leave Mindanao behind.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/8BO2xjPiXDV0EZ1YxlSC25tp_oZ7tYEYcFcjZEj2Muwn1Jvw91JGkJJuh3soV3NuH7DH0ug5sCH5dfOUcO1X8sa7gVYekyIwK6eO6ahdKUxrMx7VLu5fv61-lo1z69omRMiSQ3SPsDHPwbBT_EQZHVZNNl_bPuG46x0Ewhpl7aBqYKVafXjJrTHwUZ_VIM3xXeH5zlug58rsNOPrpQ8Nb5W_lRUzQSjfEmixa3QhZdQCXq0jc7qWRi5Fk8meMLkzdiqrY--oRyNZr7e6Xw' alt='A collapsed fast food restaurant in General Santos, Philippines.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Rubble search: In General Santos, scanners detected no signs of life from two people still believed under a collapsed commercial building, according to the fire officer leading the operation.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Landslide deaths: Sarangani officials said a landslide in Glan buried homes at the foot of a mountain and killed at least 13 to 14 people, with power cuts complicating updates.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Missing count: The Office of Civil Defense reported four people missing in the southern provinces, while earlier tallies had listed at least a dozen missing as rescue operations developed.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Building damage: The quake damaged or collapsed low-rise buildings, a school structure and commercial sites, while verified video showed the upper floor of a Jollibee restaurant collapsing in General Santos.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Aftershock risk: Aftershocks continued after the main shock, including a strong tremor measured around magnitude 6.5 to 6.7, prompting warnings against entering damaged structures.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;It’s difficult to accept, as a mother, that my son is still trapped there - Dioslinda Deluvio&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Philippine Office of Civil Defense: The agency said only four people were officially listed as missing, but collapsed and heavily damaged buildings still required inspection for possible survivors or additional casualties.

      <title>U.S. bars Somali World Cup referee Omar Artan</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/2</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;U.S. border authorities denied Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan entry after he arrived at Miami International Airport from Istanbul on Saturday, preventing him from taking part in the 2026 FIFA World Cup days before the tournament opens. U.S. Customs and Border Protection said officers referred the traveler for additional inspection and found him inadmissible over “vetting concerns,” without giving further details. FIFA said Artan, one of 52 referees selected for the tournament, cannot train or officiate and that U.S. authorities told the governing body his status “will not be changed at present”. Artan had been set to become the first Somali match official to referee at a World Cup and was named the Confederation of African Football’s men’s referee of the year in 2025. A Somali sports ministry adviser said Artan held a valid U.S. visa and was returned to Istanbul; Somalia is among the countries affected by President Trump’s travel restrictions.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/pdhBkaaVBTaaDwoXx9aUg6wNbVaVZGHpJTWSwVeQb0qLB9zcJoi_M4DTNwQem5C0k5VvUJ_KEWGWIHbHXKnLmWwf6e7lcCDUAi6RScc0ViRa0N63SbOKyBk62D3ut0JbnVePZH3w7NtvGhSFFSea10q3Izhrd_IWN1cQFzj0bD9ajRVgLiherv7VfOffgpCHn2eYyIbG81wtDw7FnKY' alt='Referee Omar Artan signals a penalty during the CAF Champions League final in Rabat, Morocco, on May 24, 2026.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Denying him entry to the United States and preventing him from officiating scheduled matches harms not only him personally but also undermines football’s commitment to fairness, merit, and the spirit of fair play - Ciise Aden Abshir&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;U.S. Customs and Border Protection: CBP said all travelers seeking entry, including athletes, coaches and staff, face inspection and vetting, and that officers can question travelers and decide admissibility under U.S. law.

      <title>Trump booed at NBA Finals game in New York</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/1</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;President Trump was loudly booed at Madison Square Garden in New York on Monday night as he appeared on arena video screens during the national anthem before Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs. He became the first sitting U.S. president to attend an NBA Finals game. He watched from Knicks owner James Dolan’s suite with his granddaughter Kai Trump, adviser Boris Epshteyn and Cabinet officials including Lee Zeldin, Sean Duffy and Doug Burgum. Authorities tightened security around the arena for Trump’s visit, including airport-style screening, a ban on bags, restrictions on unticketed fans near Madison Square Garden and the cancellation of watch parties directly outside the venue. The Spurs defeated the Knicks 115-112, cutting New York’s lead in the best-of-seven championship series to 2-1.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/zHwI983Bm0dfFafZtgC6Thl9wsfEYteyWqNRQSkHnae6XNYBTKSVMt87zKdQun4KbWVbJiv3_PEZWIcCg1vnJ3ZGAt-oLMv4JPEVKkDZBaQkI2necaCDw9zmWKBBzUY4C1gEHkhZ5CZDEk949Ve40KSMMPv05EJyhzfWoPRCBhV4zRM-f4DcRdA8pWrLSHX1AHHCspQVUlYmV3ClDk3OdKXoG9M5-D5ptlVQ9r5kQHHSu7ue_JsqaGdprNh1DpfsrhDsQdh1MDeTsTdxIw' alt='U.S. President Donald Trump watches the start of Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Anthem reaction: Chants of “U-S-A! U-S-A!” turned to boos when Trump was shown saluting, then ended after the U.S. flag appeared on the screens and Knicks players were shown.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Presidential arrival: Marine One flew from Trump’s New Jersey home to near Wall Street before his motorcade crossed Manhattan to the arena about an hour before tipoff.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Street response: People near the route made rude gestures and held signs including “Trump must go,” while another sign read “Nobody wants you here”.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Protective measures: The Secret Service used counter-drone technology, and AFP journalists saw a 10-foot fence and a large Secret Service and NYPD presence near Madison Square Garden.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Game performance: Victor Wembanyama scored 32 points for San Antonio in the Spurs’ Game 3 win over New York.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch: Tisch told people without tickets to avoid the Madison Square Garden area while authorities managed the president’s visit and game-night crowds.

      <title>Israel and Iran halt attacks after Trump pressure</title>
      <link>https://kite.kagi.com/ead67562-5bb0-474c-9993-60dd2ebbfb3a/world/0</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Israel and Iran said Monday they had stopped direct attacks after exchanging fire for the first time since an April 8 ceasefire, a flare-up that began when Iran fired missiles at Israel in response to Israeli strikes on Hezbollah areas on the outskirts of Beirut. Israel then struck targets in Iran, including air defense systems and a petrochemical complex that it said was linked to missile production; Iranian officials reported damage at Mahshahr and said 15 people were injured across Iran, while no deaths were reported by authorities on either side. President Trump publicly urged both sides to “immediately stop ‘shooting’” and later said the United States was in the “final throes” of a broader deal with Iran, with the Strait of Hormuz to open after signing, which he said could come in two or three days. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said “the fire on that front is contained” but warned Israel would respond “with full force” if Iran resumed attacks, while Iran said it would strike again if Israel continued attacks in Lebanon.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src='https://kagiproxy.com/img/gqb9sq0rFGOs5HBAEzacTswv86_X3PrHajafY8lOkMr0WHzMb4GVLZpkYEd8T2l-nK4mZXqOZ2KdNa7Lt3E7_EPbmZJ0jjcDn-GC6_aeVOlsFo63GEoHZYUCuR43DQHSWse7NY_jd71pFDyeHzKkzuz3ko60RiGLTOLi9mWJgCzkb27RwrnR_8L3HLyUl_ZVNeedTjkA8qiBW2HJ' alt='Part of a projectile that landed in northern Israel, early Monday morning.' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Highlights:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Lebanon link: Iran had spent weeks trying to tie the wider truce to Israel’s campaign against Hezbollah, saying attacks on Beirut or southern Lebanon would force a response.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Trump-Netanyahu tension: Trump told Axios he warned Netanyahu, “Bibi, you better be careful, or you will be on your own very soon,” if Israel returned to war with Iran.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Lebanon campaign: Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said Israel would continue operations in Lebanon and strike Hezbollah-dominated southern Beirut suburbs in response to attacks on northern Israel.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Shipping threat: Yemen’s Houthi rebels announced a ban on Israeli vessels in Red Sea shipping lanes and also claimed a missile attack on Israel.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Bibi, you better be careful, or you will be on your own very soon - President Donald Trump&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Perspectives:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;President Donald Trump: Trump said a Middle East deal was close, described talks as being in the “final throes,” warned that final negotiations could be derailed by “ignorance or stupidity,” and said the Strait of Hormuz would open “immediately upon signing.” (&lt;a href='https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/6/9/trump-warns-netanyahu-youll-be-on-your-own-if-attacks-on-iran-continue'&gt;Al Jazeera&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Benjamin Netanyahu: Netanyahu said Israel stopped fighting after it “hit the terror regime in Tehran,” but warned that if Iran “makes the mistake and returns to attacking us, we will respond with force.” (&lt;a href='https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/netanyahu-acknowledges-halt-in-fighting-with-iran-but-vows-to-respond-with-force-to-future-attacks/article71077940.ece'&gt;The Hindu&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Iranian military command: Iran said it had halted the operation after delivering what it called a “painful response,” but warned of more severe and crushing measures if Israel continued hostile acts, including in southern Lebanon.
