A statement called for “an immediate 21-day cease-fire” to provide space for further negotiations. “It is time for a settlement on the Israel-Lebanon border that ensures safety and security to enable civilians to return to their homes,” President Biden said in a joint statement with President Emmanuel Macron of France. The diplomatic push comes after the Israeli military said it had shot down a Hezbollah missile fired at Tel Aviv, the first time that the group took direct aim at the city. Israel’s military also told its soldiers to prepare for a possible ground incursion into Lebanon as it continued its barrage of attacks on the country yesterday. At least 51 people were killed and 223 others wounded in airstrikes, the Lebanese health minister said. The immediate goal is to reduce the risk of a wider conflict. But American officials also hope that finding a way to de-escalate the threat of war with Hezbollah could put pressure on Yahya Sinwar, Hamas’s leader, to agree to a deal that would end nearly a year of fighting in Gaza and lead to the release of the remaining hostages captured during the group’s Oct. 7 attacks.

But, with more than 300 electoral votes, he still won the presidential election, leaving many to believe that Republicans hold an intractable advantage in the Electoral College. But there is growing evidence that Trump’s once formidable advantage in the Electoral College is shrinking, according to my colleague, Nate Cohn, our chief political analyst. And it does not seem that Vice President Kamala Harris will necessarily need to win the popular vote by much to prevail.

He is the first mayor in modern New York City history to be charged while in office. The indictment was sealed, and it was unclear what charges he will face. Prosecutors are expected to announce the details today. “I always knew that If I stood my ground for New Yorkers that I would be a target — and a target I became,” Adams, 64, said yesterday and made clear he has no intention of resigning. The indictment comes a little less than a year after federal agents seized the mayor’s electronic devices. His inner circle has been engulfed by federal investigations that have targeted the highest ranks of city government. What’s next: If Adams resigned, the city’s public advocate, Jumaane Williams, would become the acting mayor and set a date for a special election. Gov. Kathy Hochul has the power to remove Adams from office. He is up for re-election next year.

Following a path of originality has defined Miyamoto’s work at Nintendo and the company’s counterintuitive approach. This arc of the company’s journey will be on display at the Nintendo Museum, which opens next month in Kyoto. “It might seem like we are just going the opposite direction for the sake of going in the opposite direction, but it really is trying to find what makes Nintendo special,” Miyamoto said. “There is a lot of talk about A.I., for example. When that happens, everyone starts to go in the same direction, but that is where Nintendo would rather go in a different direction.” We hope you’ve enjoyed this newsletter, which is made possible through subscriber support.
