Friday Briefing: Trump's Tariff Day

Friday Briefing Highlights

President Trump's latest tariff deadline has arrived, with uncertainty over which countries will face new trade penalties and which may receive last-minute reprieves. The administration's approach has led to confusion, especially after a sweeping list of new tariff rates was released just hours before the deadline. Meanwhile, Arab nations have issued a unified call for Hamas to disarm and end its rule in Gaza, marking a significant diplomatic shift. In Ukraine, Russian attacks on Kyiv killed at least 16 people following threats of new sanctions from Trump. Other top stories include Myanmar's lifted state of emergency, powerful aftershocks in the North Pacific, and new developments in sports, health, and arts.
