We’re covering Russia’s beleaguered embassy in Washington and intense strikes on the West Bank by Israel. Protests are a regular occurrence outside the Russian Embassy in Washington.Kyna Uwaeme for The New York Times Scenes from the Russian Embassy in Washington Every few weeks, a light show featuring the blue and yellow Ukrainian flag — and occasionally a Ukrainian-language profanity about the Russian president, Vladimir Putin — is beamed onto the white facade of the Russian Embassy in Washington. Russia has fought back with a big spotlight, umbrellas to obstruct the projections and illuminations of its own, such as two giant white Z’s, a nationalist Russian symbol of the war effort. This is [the strange new normal](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRmhix0P0T8aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wNy8wMy91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9ydXNzaWEtZW1iYXNzeS11a3JhaW5lLXdhci5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIzMDcwNCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD05NjY3NSZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMzgzMTMmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmSadKejZPVHXKBSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) around Russia’s main diplomatic outpost in the U.S., a scene of protests, spy games and general weirdness amid the most hostile relations between the U.S. and Russia in decades. The Russian ambassador, Anatoly Antonov, has called the embassy compound, where in recent years as many as 1,2000 Russians have worked, “a besieged fortress.” The embassy’s personnel may be among Washington’s least welcome residents, but Biden administration officials are glad they are there to maintain diplomatic ties, they say. Kicking out the Russians entirely would mean an end to America’s diplomatic presence in Moscow, which, among other things, works to assist U.S. citizens imprisoned in Russia.

At least eight Palestinians were killed, according to the Palestinian authorities, and local media reported that hundreds or thousands of people had fled the camp. Israeli military officials said a drone attack struck a joint operations center used by militants of a group known as the Jenin Brigade in the refugee camp, and that Israeli forces also targeted a weapons production site and a storage place for explosive devices. The military said it located and confiscated weapons, explosives and an improvised rocket launcher. Gunfire echoed through the camp as Israeli troops and armored vehicles went in. Residents had feared a large-scale incursion by the Israeli military but had not expected something so violent, said Muhammad Sbaghi, a member of the committee that helps administer the camp. “The occupation army is vindictively targeting us,” he said. “People are terrified,” he added. Context: The current Israeli government is the most right-wing in the country’s history, with ultranationalist ministers who oppose any talks with Palestinian leaders, and it has promised a tougher response to Palestinian violence. The Palestinian Authority has all but abandoned any effort to police militancy in the northern West Bank, leaving helpless residents caught in the middle. “Revenge for Nahel” is written in a park in the Paris suburb where Nahel Merzouk was killed last week by a police officer.Nacho Doce/Reuters Unrest eases in France Protests in France have [eased after nearly a week of violence](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRmhix0P4QHAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjMvMDcvMDMvd29ybGQvZXVyb3BlL2ZyYW5jZS1uYW50ZXJyZS11bnJlc3QtbmFoZWwtbWVyem91ay5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIzMDcwNCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD05NjY3NSZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMzgzMTMmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmSadKejZPVHXKBSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) that began after the fatal police shooting of Nahel Merzouk, a 17-year-old French citizen of North African descent, during a traffic stop last Tuesday. In response to the unrest, the authorities deployed 45,000 police officers and gendarmes for several nights in a row in an effort to bring the situation under control. Yesterday morning, the Interior Ministry said that nearly 160 people had been arrested and three law enforcement officers were injured overnight. It represented an easing of the tensions from the previous days, when as many as 1,300 people were taken into custody. Still, French mayors organized peaceful gatherings across the country to protest violent attacks on elected officials. And the issues underlying the explosion of anger appeared far from resolved. The officer who fired the shot that killed the teenager has not been publicly identified, but he is under formal investigation on charges of voluntary homicide and has been detained.
