The race is still too close to call between Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump, with only two days to go until Election Day.

Kamala Harris a affirmé mercredi que "oui", son rival républicain Donald Trump était un fasciste, à moins de deux semaines d'une élection aussi tendue qu'acrimonieuse entre les deux candidats à la Maison Blanche.

International leaders heralded the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar as an opportunity to begin ceasefire negotiations — an idea Hezbollah, Israel and Hamas have rebuffed.

On September 18, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) adopted a resolution calling for Israel to terminate its illegal occupation of Palestinian territory within one year.
