Trump says US 'may do another little Epic Fury' on Iran, despite pledge of no attack before Nov. 3
Ongoing · day 2 ↗
On Friday, October 23, President Donald Trump said the US may carry out another military operation against Iran. Trump referred to the possibility of "another little Epic Fury" attack on Iran, a reference to the joint Israeli-American operation that started the war. Signs point to renewed large-scale US strikes on Iran, including the movement of additional US military assets and troops to the Middle East.
Why it mattersTrump's pledge to hold off until the Nov. 3 vote is now paired with open talk of new strikes, while Iran says it would answer with attacks on Gulf undersea cables and US-linked infrastructure, so any resumption could hit global communications as well as military targets.
How reporting variesAl-Monitor: Cites experts who see signs of a coming major US campaign, such as extra carriers and Marines, but say it is unlikely to end the war. One expects strikes shortly after the midterms.
Reuters: Focuses on Iranian officials' plans to hit Gulf undersea cables, while a telecoms analyst says the global impact could be limited.

Hormuz ship attacks hit record high in October as Iran threatens Gulf energy and AI sites
Ship attacks in the Strait of Hormuz reached a record high in October, according to Reuters. Iran is also warning that another war would cost the US, its allies and global markets heavily. Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said Iran has a broader target list that could include Gulf energy infrastructure and artificial intelligence facilities.
Why it mattersTehran is trying to turn its own exposure to attack into leverage by raising the price of war for others, but the strategy only works if the threats deter without provoking the fighting Iran says it is preparing for.

France deploys 70,000 police as protests resume a week after riots
Ongoing · day 3 ↗
France will deploy about 70,000 police and security officers nationwide for Saturday's protests, with the government putting about 20% more officers on the streets than last weekend. President Emmanuel Macron met student representatives, and student groups afterward called for the protests to continue. Saturday's marches are planned by a coalition of the Yellow Vests movement, trade unions and students, with demands over studying conditions and purchasing power.
Why it mattersThe protests started with a few high schools and now bring together students, unions and Yellow Vests, so the government faces a broad coalition, not one grievance, even as Macron's meeting with student unions on Friday did not end their calls to keep marching.

France deploys 70,000 police and closes Louvre as second Saturday of cost-of-living protests begins
Ongoing · day 6 ↗
The Louvre and other major Paris museums will close on Saturday over concerns about violence during the protests. Some 70,000 police officers and gendarmes are to be deployed for Saturday's protests, backed by helicopters, armoured vehicles and water cannons. Paris business owners began boarding up their shopfronts on Friday ahead of a second day of protests, which organizers said was a follow-up to last weekend's demonstrations.
Why it mattersThe authorities are betting that a heavy show of force, bans in some cities and a fixed Paris route can keep a cost-of-living protest from repeating last week's rioting, but the unions' acceptance of the route is what decides whether the main march stays peaceful.

Zelensky says Ukrainian, Russian and US negotiators will meet in Abu Dhabi in early November
Ongoing · day 6 ↗
Zelensky said Ukrainian, Russian and US negotiators are set to meet in early November in Abu Dhabi. Zelensky said on Friday that Beijing has "influence" over Moscow and should use it to help stop the war, and he referred to a proposed summit meeting of the US, China and Russia. US-Ukrainian ties have soured in recent weeks after warmer relations over the summer, raising worries of a deeper break between the two countries.
Why it mattersA possible US-China-Russia leaders' summit could shape the war's terms without Kyiv, and Zelensky is now urging Beijing to use its influence over Moscow while warning against any division of Ukraine.
How reporting variesStraits Times: Frames the talks against a recent slump in US-Ukrainian ties, listing Trump's pressure over refinery strikes, the Starlink limits, the Russia sanctions waiver and his remark that Kyiv should "get somebody else to negotiate".

Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro, level in polls, hold last debate before Brazil's Sunday runoff
Ongoing · day 4 ↗
In the final televised debate on Friday, Flávio Bolsonaro and Lula da Silva clashed over the cost of living and corruption and traded personal attacks. Flávio Bolsonaro came across as more polished in the final debate, while Lula was more offensive, in a showdown that could sway undecided voters before Sunday's runoff. Flávio Bolsonaro has made crime and public safety the centre of his campaign, following a playbook used by right-wing candidates elsewhere in Latin America.
Why it mattersWith the race this tight, a shift among undecided voters, abstainers or conservative-leaning small towns could decide it. Flávio Bolsonaro is the son of a former president jailed over a coup plot, so a win would return the family to power.
How reporting variesLe Monde: Says Flávio Bolsonaro came across as more polished while Lula was more offensive in a debate that could sway undecided voters.
Straits Times: Calls the debate calmer, with questions on the economy, infrastructure and regional development.

Ukraine says Starlink and Starshield speeds are back to normal after a week of throttling
Ongoing · day 2 ↗
Ukraine's defence minister said Saturday that Starlink and Starshield are operating again at speeds above 400 km/h and that the connection is stable, after more than a week of disruption. Ukraine says Starlink speed curbs remain in place despite a Trump assurance that any access problem would be fixed, while Ukrainian soldiers say connections still fail when drones fly at high speed. Speed restrictions imposed by SpaceX on Ukraine's military Starlink service have hampered its drone forces since October 14, when terminals travelling above certain speeds were blocked from the service.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un arrived in the Chinese border city of Dandong on Saturday via the New Yalu River Bridge, according to South Korean officials.

The bridge opened about a week ago, 12 years after it was completed. It is Kim's first known trip abroad since September 2025, when he went to Beijing. The visit falls a day before the anniversary of China's entry into the Korean War.

Rubio urges Cubans to partner with CIA as Trump says US will 'take care of Cuba' after Iran
Secretary of State Marco Rubio called on those seeking change in Cuba to "seize this opportunity" through a "discreet partnership with the CIA", in a post on X on Friday. At a Florida rally, President Donald Trump said a US warship would stop about 50 yards off Cuba's coast on its way home from Iran, then "we're going to send Marco Rubio in to finish up the deal". Cuban Deputy Foreign Minister Carlos Fernandez de Cossio mocked the CIA appeal; a US oil blockade has left Cuba with fuel shortages and blackouts.
