Summary
In Spain, a tragic train collision near Madrid results in over 60 fatalities. The incident involves a high-speed train crashing into a stationary one, causing multiple carriages to derail.

In Israel, recent parliamentary elections yield no clear victor, complicating the formation of a new government. Benjamin Netanyahu's party secures the most votes, but neither side can independently establish a government due to significant support for Arab parties. Netanyahu asserts that any new government must not rely on these parties, while his rival Gadi Eisenkott emphasizes the public's desire for change. The political landscape remains uncertain as both leaders navigate potential coalitions.
In Germany, the government announces plans to maintain parental support for 14 months, despite initial proposals to reduce it to 12 months. New regulations will require fathers to take at least four months of parental leave to qualify for the full benefit, alongside similar requirements for mothers. This decision aims to encourage shared parenting responsibilities.
In Brazil, Flavio Bolsonaro, facing police investigations, leaves the country for the United States despite a court ruling prohibiting his departure. The U.S. government allows him to remain, shielding him from Brazilian authorities.
