He is the highest-ranking Ukrainian official to die since the beginning of Russia’s invasion last year.

Kyiv is looking to strike Russia’s land bridge, a critical supply route that connects Crimea to Russia through the occupied cities of Melitopol and Mariupol.

Ten out of 11 judges on the panel ruled against Aryeh Deri, the leader of an ultra-Orthodox Sephardic party and a close ally of Netanyahu, on grounds of “extreme unreasonability,” and said the prime minister should remove him from his posts. The decision came as Netanyahu, who is on trial on corruption charges, and the judiciary are locked in a battle over the Supreme Court, with top political leaders seeking to assert more control over legal matters. Those efforts have prompted street protests in cities across Israel, as many Israelis fear that the judicial changes could undermine the country’s democratic institutions. In addition to changing the way judges are chosen, the [government’s proposals](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlq2HKP4Q3AWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjMvMDEvMTIvd29ybGQvbWlkZGxlZWFzdC9uZXRhbnlhaHUtaXNyYWVsLWp1ZGljaWFsLXJlZm9ybS5odG1sP2FjdGlvbj1jbGljayZjYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01MSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9tYmVfMjAyMzAxMTkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9ODMwNjImbW9kdWxlPVJlbGF0ZWRMaW5rcyZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnBndHlwZT1BcnRpY2xlJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMjI4NzUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmPIytzIY0lYxntSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~)also include reducing the Supreme Court’s ability to revoke laws passed in Parliament and allowing it to override such court decisions with a bare majority of 61. The government also wants to turn the legal advisers in government ministries into political appointees who would no longer answer to the attorney general. What’s next: Netanyahu must now decide whether he will respect the court ruling or defy it and head a government that opposition leaders say would be “illegal.” An initial statement of support for Deri by Netanyahu’s staff appeared ambiguous, but it suggested that the coalition wanted to find a way to keep the minister in office, or at least keep his party in the coalition. Jacinda Ardern on Thursday.Kerry Marshall/Getty Images Jacinda Ardern announces resignation Jacinda Ardern, the New Zealand prime minister, said earlier today that she [would not seek re-election](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlq2HKP0T7aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wMS8xOC93b3JsZC9hc2lhL2phY2luZGEtYXJkZXJuLW5ldy16ZWFsYW5kLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTEmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJlXzIwMjMwMTE5Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTgzMDYyJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtZXVyb3BlLWVkaXRpb24mcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTEyMjg3NSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKY8jK3MhjSVjGe1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) and would step down on Feb. 7. Labour Party lawmakers will elect a new leader of the party — and the country — in three days’ time. In a tearful announcement, Ardern said she did not feel emotionally equipped to complete another term. “I believe that leading a country is the most privileged job anyone could ever have, but also one of the more challenging,” she said. “You cannot and should not do it unless you have a full tank plus a bit in reserve for those unexpected challenges.” Ardern became prime minister in 2017 and won re-election in 2020, largely on the strength of New Zealand’s approach to Covid. Her compassionate response to a massacre at two mosques in Christchurch in 2019 solidified her image as a global liberal icon. But her party has since fallen sharply in the polls amid economic troubles and some highly publicized instances of violent crime. Analysis: Ben Thomas, a political commentator and former press secretary for the National Party, said her resignation could spell disaster for the Labour Party. “She’s Labour’s No. 1 political asset,” he said. “It would very much be a personal decision to step down, as opposed to a considered strategy about what would be best for Labour in the election.” [Continue reading the main story](#a11y-skip-universal-0) ADVERTISEMENT ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlq2HKP0RvaHR0cHM6Ly9saXZlaW50ZW50Lm5ld3lvcmt0aW1lc2luZm8uY29tL2NsaWNrP3M9MjIxNzY5JmxpPU1CRSZtPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3JnA9TUJFXzIwMjMwMTE5VwNueXRCCmPIytzIY0lYxntSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~ THE LATEST NEWS Around the World Eloisa Lopez/Reuters - Maria Ressa, a Philippine journalist and Nobel Laureate, [won a legal victory](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlq2HKP4QAAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjMvMDEvMTcvd29ybGQvYXNpYS9tYXJpYS1yZXNzYS1waGlsaXBwaW5lcy1yYXBwbGVyLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTEmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJlXzIwMjMwMTE5Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTgzMDYyJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtZXVyb3BlLWVkaXRpb24mcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTEyMjg3NSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKY8jK3MhjSVjGe1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) to keep publishing her news site, Rappler. - Despite a rapid succession of punishing storms and significant flooding, [California is still in a drought](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlq2HKP0T8aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vaW50ZXJhY3RpdmUvMjAyMy8wMS8xOC9jbGltYXRlL2NhbGlmb3JuaWEtZHJvdWdodC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIzMDExOSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD04MzA2MiZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMjI4NzUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmPIytzIY0lYxntSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). - Microsoft becomes the latest tech giant to cut costs as it plans to lay off 10,000 workers, the company’s [largest job cuts in about eight years](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlq2HKP0TwaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wMS8xOC9idXNpbmVzcy9taWNyb3NvZnQtbGF5b2Zmcy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIzMDExOSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD04MzA2MiZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMjI4NzUmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmPIytzIY0lYxntSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~).

He lost yesterday after he injured his hip. ARTS AND IDEAS The future of climate change activism Bill McKibben, now 62, was among the first climate change activists, publishing his groundbreaking book “The End of Nature” in 1989. Xiye Bastida, 20, whose early life in Mexico was disrupted by floods and drought, is a climate activist in Pittsburgh. This is a lightly edited and condensed excerpt from a conversation the pair had in December about their histories as activists, the future of the movement and what is the role of climate change activists.

Bastida: I like the kind of hope that inspires you to change. A hope that inspires you to act. A hope that inspires you to realize that if other people are doing it, it means that I must be doing that as well. I was invited to a Vogue panel. The person who invited me, after the panel, said that they were actually going to change a lot of the way that Vogue operated. It’s very different to say, “I’m going use my power and my influence in the space that I occupy to change things because of something you said,” versus, “You give me so much hope.” McKibben: One of the things that makes me feel hopeful is that I no longer feel lonely in this work — which I did, through some decades. But I don’t think we owe anyone hope. The job of activists is not to make people feel psychologically improved and more hopeful. There’s days when I don’t feel particularly hopeful. But Xiye is absolutely right: If there is hope, it lies in people deciding to join together to do this work.
