The Global News Podcast from the BBC World Service presents several top stories, including Israel's claim of killing a prominent Hamas figure, a U.S. judge blocking the deportation of Guatemalan children, and China and India declaring themselves partners, not rivals. The podcast also covers the impact of drought in Iraq, which has exposed ancient tombs, and escalating military actions in Gaza, along with a humanitarian flotilla attempting to deliver aid. Further segments include Indonesia's response to violent protests over parliamentary allowances, Norway's significant defense deal with the UK for anti-submarine warships, the Trump administration's actions against Voice of America journalists, a study suggesting an alternative blood thinner to aspirin for heart disease patients, and efforts to combat the spruce bark beetle threatening European forests. The podcast concludes with a light-hearted story about a seagull screeching competition.
