• 💰White House warns Ukraine funding is about to run out

  In letters to Congressional leaders, the White House’s budget chief, Shalanda Young, cautioned that if additional funding for Ukraine isn’t approved before the year ends, the US cannot continue equipping it to fend off Russia’s invasion. “There is no magical pot of funding available to meet this moment. We are out of money—and nearly out of time,” the letters said. Ukraine aid has become a political flashpoint that factored into the fight over the speaker of the House role, as some Republicans object to providing the nation with more cash or want the funds paired with other budgeting priorities like border security.

  The Israeli military has begun an invasion of southern Gaza, according to a New York Times analysis of satellite imagery, evidence of a long-awaited operation that could decide the fate of its war with Hamas and create more peril for Palestinian civilians.
