The 27 July edition of Daybreak covers a pause in fighting between the U.S. and Iran, the latest developments in Russia's war against Ukraine, and mass evacuations as wildfires continue to spread across France and Spain.
Washington and Tehran have both halted attacks, bringing around two weeks of daily fighting to a temporary pause. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Michael Waltz said the pause was intended to allow an Omani delegation in Tehran todiscuss reopening the Strait of Hormuz. An Iranian military spokesperson said the U.S. had failed to achieve its objectives.
A Ukrainian strike on Russia's Belgorod region injured 12 people, while a separate strike damaged an apartment building in the city of Rostov-on-Don. Meanwhile, Russia said its forces had taken control of a settlement in Ukraine's Donetsk region.
More than 320,000 people have been evacuated in France and Spain as wildfires continue to spread across southern Europe. Efforts to contain the blazes are being hampered by shifting winds and extremely dry conditions. The European Union has sent aircraft to assist France.
This episode also covered a fatal shooting at Berlin's Christopher Street Day celebration, protests in India, and new UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham's scheduled meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
