US government avoids shutdown in last-minute deal – BBC News

The US government has avoided a federal shutdown after both House and Senate agreed on a short-term funding deal.
A bill ensuring funding until 17 November received overwhelming support, and was signed into law by President Joe Biden minutes before a deadline.
However, it was stripped of any new aid for Ukraine for its war against Russia - a key Democrat demand.
A government shutdown, which would place tens of thousands of federal employees on furlough without pay and suspend various government services, was due to begin at 00:01 ET (04:01 GMT) on Sunday.
