On 29 July, AnewZ's Daybreak focused on meetings involving Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Benjamin Netanyahu, escalating tensions in the Middle East following U.S. military action, and the funeral of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham.

Washington said the operation followed a wave of drone attacks it blamed on Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, ending a brief pause in fighting that had raised hopes of renewed diplomacy.

The programme also covers world leaders gathering in Washington for the funeral of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, where President Donald Trump paid tribute to his longtime ally before holding separate talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East.
Daybreak also brings the latest from Japan, where rescue teams continue searching for survivors after a powerful earthquake killed at least 13 people, as well as new U.S. restrictions on Chinese technology imports introduced over national security concerns.
