But Le Pen’s party still ramped up its seat share, and she says its victory has only been postponed. The historic gains spread the party’s reach far out into central France, including in the eastern city of Chalon-sur-Saone, where Morgane Guechi has started a club for Muslim women who feel worried about the rise of the far right in their region.

A judge in New Mexico has dismissed the involuntary manslaughter charges against actor Alec Baldwin after finding the state withheld evidence from the defense. The ruling brought a sudden and dramatic end to the proceedings only three days into the trial.

Prosecutors had tried to argue the actor had increased responsibilities as the film's producer.

Urban green spaces are essential for air quality and help balance city temperatures. In Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, large-scale construction has significantly reduced the percentage of urban green cover, thus contributing to unbearable heat waves in summer. Environment experts say the prizing of private interests over public benefit is the main reason why urban green spaces — which are essential for air quality and the regulation of temperatures — are being replaced by concrete buildings. This phenomenon is on the rise in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, where the concrete jungle is spreading, robbing the city of its green cover. This, coupled with climate change, means that summers in Belgrade are becoming unbearable. In fact, Serbian meteorologists expect weather conditions in the city to be similar to those in Egypt's capital, Cairo, by 2050.

Israel says it is taking steps to increase the flow of aid into the Gaza Strip through the port of Ashdod. But tons of supplies have piled up on the Gaza side of Israeli-controlled border crossings.
