Biden to pass torch to Harris at DNC amid Gaza protesters
Kamala Harris takes her surging US presidential campaign to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago tonight for a day that will be overshadowed by protests against Israel's war in Gaza. President Joe Biden will endorse Harris and the case against Republican rival Donald Trump.

Blinken travels to Israel for ceasefire talks

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken traveled to Israel on Sunday as mediators seek to cement a Gaza ceasefire deal, even as attacks on Gaza intensified. Making his ninth trip to the Middle East since the war broke out, Blinken is expected to meet Israeli leaders before truce talks resume this week in Cairo. US, Qatari and Egyptian mediators have said negotiations to clinch a ceasefire in the more than 10-month-old war were making progress, and US President Joe Biden said "we are closer than we have ever been" to bringing a halt to hostilities.
