Today we break down the chaotic release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, where heavy redactions and disappearing documents have fueled accusations of a politically motivated cover-up. We then analyze the escalating US-Venezuela standoff, as the seizure of a second oil tanker creates a deep diplomatic rift between Brazil and Argentina. Our global roundup covers the latest on Ukraine peace talks amid intensified fighting, a massive US retaliatory strike in Syria, and national mourning in Australia after the Bondi Beach attack. We also look at a new sentence for Pakistan's Imran Khan, a major UN resolution on the conflict in the DRC, and a shocking attack in Taipei.
