What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.

Not sure trump knows enough about the situation to give a good report. On the other hand, this might explain the erratic decision making.

"What progress have you made Donald?"

"Uhhh, there's a blockade..."

"What? Iran's blockading during the ceasefire?"

"Cease fire? ... i mean, uhhh, no, we're blockading! It's the biggest most beautiful blockade, no one's ever seen a blockade like this! All the aid is blocks!"

Funny. I held my nose and voted for Kamala. I don't recall Bibi on the ballot, but it seems like he's running the country now.
