Scorch and Surge: Ontario Faces Sweltering Heat and Successive Storm Threats

Ontario is bracing for a stretch of intense weather as Environment Canada issues heat warnings across multiple regions, paired with a forecast of multi-day storm risks. Temperatures are expected to soar past 30°C, with humidex values pushing conditions into the high 30s and low 40s.

Gaza Ceasefire Talks Resume Amidst Grim Milestone: Over 40,000 Palestinians Killed

 

In a desperate bid to end the devastating conflict, negotiators from Israel and Hamas have resumed ceasefire talks in the Qatari capital, Doha. The war, which has raged for over ten months, has now claimed the lives of more than 40,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza health officials.
