Newsday

Available for 26 days

US President Donald Trump has announced, and a senior Hamas official has confirmed to the BBC, that a deal has been done ensuring they and other armed groups disarm in Gaza. A major milestone, President Trump, says...but how might Israel respond? They haven't yet. FIFA's plan to bring private investment into the World Cups is in trouble. The governing bodies for European, Central and Northern America have come out against it. UEFA even say they will boycott the World Cup if the plan passes. Plus - after Open AI had its own issues, now Anthropic say their AI model launched cyber attacks.
