Three activists from a leftist pro-democracy group and a leading figure of the People Power group, which had organized street booths, were among those arrested. The legislative election was postponed for one year because of the pandemic, but many in the pro-democracy camp accused the government of stalling to avoid the defeat of establishment candidates. The protests were also to show public anger at a draconian security law imposed by Beijing that is silencing dissent.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s early, abrupt lockdown hurt the economy but ended without having fully reined in the virus. India now has the fastest-growing outbreak, reporting a global record of more than 90,632 new cases on Sunday. Its economy has shrunk faster than that of any other major nation. As many as 200 million people could slip back into poverty. Quotable: “The engine has been smashed,” said Arundhati Roy, one of India’s pre-eminent writers. “The ability to survive has been smashed.

China also implied that it would expel foreign journalists if the Trump administration took further action against Chinese media employees in the U.S., the people said. The bigger picture: The actions and threats raise the stakes in the cycle of retribution between Washington and Beijing over news organizations and are part of a much broader downward spiral in U.S.-China relations. In March, China expelled almost all American journalists for The Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post from mainland bureaus after 60 Chinese employees from five Chinese state-run news organizations were expelled from the U.S. If you have 5 minutes, this is worth it Climbing a tree for distance learning Ulet Ifansasti for The New York Times In North Sumatra, students climb to the tops of tall trees a mile from their mountain village, hoping for a cell signal strong enough to complete their assignments.

And now for the Back Story on … World War II stories you didn’t know The 75th anniversary of the end of World War II inspired The Times Magazine to create a yearlong series documenting lesser-known stories about the war and its aftermath through original reporting and first-person accounts. Among the contributors to the series, called [“Beyond the World War II We Know,”](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhN9NlP0TcaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vc3BvdGxpZ2h0L2JleW9uZC13d2lpP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfTUJBRV9wXzIwMjAwOTA2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTIxOTY5Jm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWN0aW9uPWJhY2tTdG9yeSZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTM3NTQ2JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgoAG2VOVV8TutQDUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) are Alexander Chee, a Korean-American author and essayist; Yoko Ogawa, a Japanese novelist and short-story writer; and the actor, writer and producer Tom Hanks. Here’s an excerpt from [Times Insider’s look at how the project came about](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhN9NlP0TvaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wOS8wNS9pbnNpZGVyL1dvcmxkLVdhci1JSS1lbmQuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X01CQUVfcF8yMDIwMDkwNiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0yMTk2OSZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VjdGlvbj1iYWNrU3Rvcnkmc2VnbWVudF9pZD0zNzU0NiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKABtlTlVfE7rUA1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). Lauren Katzenberg, who heads The Times’s At War team, and Dan Saltzstein, deputy editor for Special Sections, led the project. The number of people who could still provide eyewitness accounts is diminishing all of the time, Mr. Saltzstein said, adding, “This is probably the last chance we’re going to be able to hear from them.” The team wanted to push beyond the “typical, expected World War II coverage,” he said. The Times invited readers who served in the war, or whose family members did, to share stories and photographs via a form on The Times’s website. About 500 responses poured in, Ms. Katzenberg said. “It was just really incredible to get such a response, and to read everyone’s stories,” she said. Captain Charity Adams Early (center), the commander of the only all-black Women’s Army Corps unit to serve overseas during World War II, at a training center in Iowa in 1943. Her story was featured in the Times Magazine series “Beyond the World War II We Know.” National Archives On Jan. 7, The Times published another invitation, this one aimed at civilians from anywhere in the world who lived through the war. Over 140 responses rolled in. In order to include “the creative perspective,” Mr. Saltzstein said, he asked Mr. Chee, the Korean-American author, to contribute.

Mr. Saltzstein said he also wanted to invite a writer who could offer a distinctly Japanese point of view. Ms. Ogawa contributed an essay about how literature is essential to retaining memories of the atomic bombings.

Working on the project “was often moving,” Mr. Saltzstein said. Having what is probably one of the last chances to hear from eyewitnesses was “a terrific responsibility on our part, and it had a deep effect on me.” That’s it for this briefing.
