August 7: Thai School Shooting and U.S. Egg Recall
In Thailand
Thai authorities say at least seven people, including the suspected gunman, were killed in a shooting at a school near Bangkok on Friday morning. Officials have not yet released further details on a motive or the identities of those killed.
In U.S. health
Federal health officials are investigating a salmonella outbreak tied to shell eggs produced by Texas-based Midwest Poultry Services. About 1.5 million cartons have been recalled across 17 states, and the outbreak has led to 26 hospitalizations. Consumers are being urged to check and return or discard affected eggs.
In Belarus
Opposition leader Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya condemned Belarus's designation of Euronews as an extremist outlet. The label puts the broadcaster's audience at risk of repression and marks another escalation in Minsk's campaign against independent information.
In Britain
The Conservatives say they would bar foreign nationals from social housing, a proposal that could affect an estimated 230,000 households. Party leader Kemi Badenoch framed the policy as ending Britain's role as a “cash machine for the world,” while Reform UK said it resembled its own plan.
In Germany
More than 1,000 German lawyers have urged the Bundestag to begin proceedings to ban the far-right Alternative for Germany, or AfD. The appeal adds legal pressure on a party that has continued to gain support, though an outright ban would face a high constitutional threshold.
