Quick Glance: Russia and China Veto US Cease-Fire Resolution
  • Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored UN resolution on Friday calling for an immediate and sustained cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza to protect civilians and enable humanitarian aid for over 2 million hungry Palestinians.

  • The resolution reflected a shift in U.S. stance, diverging from much of the world's push for an unconditional end to the fighting.

  • While the resolution would have been officially binding, it would not have stopped the fighting or released hostages, but it would have increased pressure on Israel as its closest ally aligns more with global calls for a cease-fire.

  • The Security Council had passed two resolutions on the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza, but none had called for a cease-fire.

Quick Glance: Appeals Court Decision Reduces Trump's Bond in Fraud Case
  • In the New York civil fraud case, it was determined that Donald Trump and his co-defendants now have 10 days to post a $175 million bond, compared to the original $464 million.

  • The late ruling from a panel of state Appellate Division judges, all appointed by Democratic governors, represents a significant victory and relief for the former president.

  • Trump's legal team had previously stated that obtaining the larger bond was practically impossible. The court's decision also temporarily prevents the New York Attorney General's office from enforcing the judgment.

  • Additionally, the court imposed a stay on the part of the initial judgment that restricted Trump from acting as a public officer of a company, as well as prohibitions on other individuals, although not all of Trump's requests were granted.
