Newsday

Available for over a year

Joe Biden has accepted the Democratic nomination for the White House, promising to restore hope and light to America after what he called the darkness of the Trump presidency. Russian doctors say the opposition leader Alexei Navalny is too ill to be flown to Germany for treatment following his alleged poisoning. The June 5 movement which has been the most vocal in opposition to Ibrahim Boubacar Keita – the former president of Mali, ousted by rebel members of the military - is holding a rally to mark his departure despite international criticism of the coup.
