Harris gives Democrats better shot than Biden to beat Trump
Experts believe that the withdrawal of President Joe Biden from the presidential race, which gave rise to the possibility of Vice President Kamala Harris going against with Republican nominee Donald Trump, will warrant a tighter race. Biden said Sunday that he was dropping out of his reelection battle with Trump, in a move that puts the already turbulent 2024 race into uncharted territory. The Democratic Party is in chaos with Harris getting Biden's blessing. Biden bowed out after weeks of pressure following a disastrous debate performance that raised fears over his health.

Trump, Republicans demand Biden resign from presidency
Congressional Republicans are calling for President Joe Biden's resignation following his announcement to withdraw from the presidential race. Several GOP leaders say that if Biden is unfit to run for re-election, he is unfit to serve his remaining term. Trump responded to Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 race, calling him "the worst president in the history of the United States." The former president's campaign launched a new fundraising drive, but Trump said he thinks Harris will be easier to beat than Biden.

Netanyahu visits US amid growing violence

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is visiting the US to speak to Congress this week amid tense relations between the two countries. The trip comes as the Middle East is reeling from violence with Israel bombing Gaza, Lebanon and Yemen in quick succession in response to attacks from Iran-backed militant groups. Despite Washington's top diplomat asserting a deal is near the "goal line" to end more than nine months of war with Hamas, the Israeli military said it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen, as it pressed on with its offensive in Gaza.
