Jordan bans opposition party linked to Muslim Brotherhood 
AMMAN — Jordan has announced a sweeping ban on the Muslim Brotherhood that could include shutting down the country's largest opposition party, after accusing the Islamist group of planning attacks.The Islamic Action Front, a political party linked to the regionwide Brotherhood, won the most seats in parliamentary elections held last year against the backdrop of mass protests against Isarel over its war with Hamas.The monarchy banned the Muslim Brotherhood a decade ago but officially licensed a splinter group and continued to tolerate the Islamic Action Front while restricting some of its activities.It was not immediately clear how far the latest ban would go.Police surrounded and searched the Islamic Action Front's headquarters after Wednesday's announcement and seized...

Trump slams Zelensky for refusing to recognize Russian control of Crimea
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump slammed Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday for his comments that Ukraine wouldn’t recognize Russian control of Crimea, calling the remarks “very harmful to the Peace Negotiations with Russia.”“It’s inflammatory statements like Zelensky’s that make it so difficult to settle this war.
