On 6 July, AnewZ's Daybreak focused on Ukraine, Iran and Venezuela's earthquake crisis.
The programme led with Russia's overnight missile and drone attack on Kyiv, where at least 10 people were killed in one of the latest strikes targeting the Ukrainian capital. The coverage examined the continuing impact of the conflict on civilians and the wider security situation.
Daybreak also reported on the worsening humanitarian emergency in Venezuela, where the death toll from the powerful earthquake has surpassed 3,000. Tens of thousands of people remain missing as rescue teams continue search operations amid widespread destruction and ongoing aftershocks.
The programme also focused on Iran, where the continued absence of the country's Supreme Leader from the funeral ceremonies of the former leader has drawn increasing scrutiny. The coverage explored the political significance of the absence and the questions it has raised about Iran's leadership at a sensitive moment.
The programme also covered the latest international developments, including Russia's continued attacks on Ukraine, the evolving political situation in Iran, and rescue efforts following the Venezuela earthquake, as authorities race to locate survivors and deliver humanitarian assistance.
U.S. President Donald Trump says Washington is not seeking an extension of its memorandum of understanding with Iran, claiming the U.S. already controls the Strait of Hormuz through its naval blockade.
Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has slowed, according to the latest data, as uncertainty over the waterway’s reopening kept most shipowners away. Six commodity vessels crossed the strait on Tuesday, down from nine the day before and below the 10-day daily average of 11.
Iran has said the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed until the U.S. fulfils the terms of an interim deal, including lifting the maritime blockade and sanctions and releasing Iran’s frozen assets.
Ukraine has targeted at least 20 Wildberries warehouses across Russia since 18 July, disrupting a major logistics network. Kyiv says the strikes aim to disrupt alleged military-linked supplies, while the attacks have caused billions of dollars in losses and wider economic pressure.
Russia said its air defences downed 180 drones over the Moscow region overnight, with 620 drones reportedly targeting the area, according to Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin.
