Trump secures Netanyahu’s agreement to Gaza deal – Five stories you need to know | Reuters

From Reuters.

1. President Donald Trump secured Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s backing on Monday for a U.S.-sponsored peace proposal to end a nearly two-year-old war in Gaza, but questions loomed over whether Hamas would accept the plan.

2. U.S. President Donald Trump and his Democratic opponents appeared to make little progress at a White House meeting aimed at heading off a government shutdown that could disrupt a wide range of services as soon as Wednesday.

3. Russia said on Monday that its military was analysing whether or not the United States would supply Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine for strikes deep into Russia, a step that Russian officials say could trigger a steep escalation.

4. With growing scenes of conflict involving federal immigration agents in Chicago and its suburbs, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker said on Monday that the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump had asked the Pentagon to send 100 troops to the state.

5. Vietnam’s death toll from Typhoon Bualoi rose to 19 with another 21 people still missing, the government said on Tuesday, making it the most devastating storm to hit the country this year as heavy rains caused severe flooding in Hanoi and across northern provinces.
