Here’s a quick summary of what has happened around the world over the last 24 hours, brought to you exclusively by British Herald.
The biggest local news from today comes from the royal palace. Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have decided to take a step back from their senior royal roles. The couple is hoping to work towards becoming financially independent and set up a new charity while continuing a few royal duties. The Buckingham Palace issued a statement saying that the decision of Prince Harry and wife Meghan’s plans to step back from royal duties was in discussion and at an early stage.
Iran’s missile attack on Wednesday had been intended to kill U.S. personnel at Iraq’s al-Asad airbase, the top U.S. military officer said, in remarks that suggested that Tehran was, and perhaps still is, willing to risk major U.S. retaliation. Trump administration officials failed to convince Democratic U.S. lawmakers, and some Republicans, that an imminent threat had justified the killing of a top Iranian military commander, and congressional Democrats scheduled a vote on legislation to rein in the president’s ability to wage war.
