This is Volt News Network. Tonight, we take a look at the past week, this is your Roundup Rodeo.

The top international story this week centered around ongoing tensions on the Korean peninsula. North Korea claimed to have successfully launched its first military reconnaissance satellite, in defiance of U-N sanctions. In response, South Korea and the U-S increased combined exercises near the peninsula. South Korea also postponed the launch of its own satellite due to weather.

We also continued following the situation in the Middle East. Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire in their latest conflict in Gaza. As part of negotiations, Hamas released Israeli and other hostages while Israel freed Palestinian prisoners. Meanwhile, Israeli-linked vessels saw attacks in the Red and Arabian Seas in recent weeks. Israeli forces uncovered an extensive Hamas tunnel network beneath Gaza buildings, including a hospital, renewing concerns the terrorist group uses civilians as human shields. And the Red Sea saw multiple attacks targeting Israeli cargo vessels without clear attribution.

In other global news, Chinese hospitals reported a rise in respiratory cases among children in northern China. However, the cause and scope of the outbreak remain unclear due to limited data provided. The U-N F-A-O is also pushing for reduced meat consumption in its upcoming C-O-P-28 food guidance. Worth mentionin’ that the C-O-P-28 Summit took place this past week.
