N. KOREA Among the subjects Donald Trump apparently didn’t discuss with Kim Jong Un in Singapore — such as the regime’s human rights abuses and its exports of missile technology— there’s one more: its long record of dangerous cyberattacks against sensitive targets in the U.S. and allied nations. 

AFGHANISTAN A suicide bomber struck in the eastern city of Jalalabad yesterday, killing at least 19 people in the second attack in as many days targeting Taliban fighters, security forces and civilians celebrating a holiday cease-fire.

SPAIN Ships in the Aquarius aid convoy docked yesterday at the Spanish port of Valencia, ending a weeklong ordeal for hundreds of people who were rescued from the perilous Mediterranean only to become the latest pawn in Europe’s battle over immigration.

PORTUGAL’s president and prime minister have attended a Mass in a rural town to mark the anniversary of a wildfire that killed 66 people. President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa and Prime Minister Antonio Costa joined scores of local people Sunday at a small church in Pedrogao Grande, which is located about 200 kilometers northeast of Lisbon.

GREECE-MACEDONIA The neighboring countries signed a deal that, if ratified, will resolve a decades-old dispute concerning Macedonia’s name. Under the agreement, Greece’s northern neighbor will be renamed North Macedonia — move the two countries’ leaders said would be the beginning of closer, friendly relations.

GERMANY’s interior minister insisted that his party has no intention of bringing down Chancellor Angela Merkel and her government, amid uncertainty yesterday over chances of a solution to a bitter standoff over migration.

YEMEN The Saudi-led coalition fighting Shiite rebels in Yemen carried out airstrikes on the airport in the rebel-held port city of Hodeida, witnesses said yesterday, as fighting raged on for the fifth day in the port city that’s a lifeline to most of Yemen’s population.

SYRIA Jewish artifacts, including ancient parchment torahs from one of the world’s oldest synagogues, have gone missing from the Syrian capital amid the tumult of ongoing civil war, with some precious items reportedly surfacing abroad.
