The world is still. Here is what happened.
Leaders of the Group of Seven nations opened a summit in France today.
The talks turned quickly to Ukraine and the Middle East.
In recent weeks, the conflict with Iran had drawn attention away from the war in Ukraine.
The President of the United States announced an agreement to end hostilities with Iran just before the summit began.
What that means for discussions on Ukraine will become clearer in the coming days.
The Department of Homeland Security's role in this year's elections is now in question.

More than eight thousand five hundred incidents were recorded across eighty-three countries.
At least ten thousand six hundred students and staff were killed, injured, abducted, or arrested.
The highest numbers were reported in Colombia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Haiti, Palestine, and Ukraine.
The findings were published by the Global Coalition to Protect Education from Attack.
The United States reached a ceasefire agreement with Iran.

Japan's central bank raised its interest rate today.
The new rate is the highest the country has set in thirty-one years — the bank has been lifting rates from near zero since last year.
Further moves will depend on how the economy develops in the coming months.
Cape Verde held Spain to a scoreless draw in a World Cup qualifier.
The result sent crowds into the streets of the capital, Praia — celebrations lasted through the night.

Here is what happened. The world is still.
