More hostages released, Fighting in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Troubles in the EV industry, and more
Description
There were joyous scenes in both Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories today, as Hamas returned four more Israeli women and Israel freed 200 Palestinians from prison in the second week of the ceasefire.
Also: The Democratic Republic of Congo is cutting diplomatic ties with neighbouring Rwanda. Fighting between Congolese forces and Rwanda-backed rebels is intensifying near the border, forcing more than 400-thousand people to flee their homes since the start of the year.
And: As U.S. President Donald Trump seeks to end incentives for electric vehicle purchases, similar moves to roll back help for the EV industry in this country are also putting consumers and automakers on a rocky road.
Plus: Conservative super caucus in Ontario, looking ahead to Belarus' election, A Rome exhibit celebrating female artists, and more.
