Rebels attack Ukrainian border guard base in Luhansk
Hundreds of pro-Russia rebels fought a daylong assault on a border guard base near Luhansk. Five rebels were killed, eight wounded, while seven border troops were wounded. A blast at an insurgent held building in central Luhansk left several dead, with casualty reports contested between sides. The conflict drew Russian calls for a UN Security Council halt and ceasefire talks as Ukraine mobilized air support.

Palestinians form unity government under Palestinian unity plan
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas swore in a 17 member technocratic unity government backed by Hamas, ending seven years of split with Fatah. Israel threatens sanctions and isolation while the United States says it will work with the new government and continue aid. The move comes as Netanyahu accuses Abbas of embracing terrorism, and as the EU signals continued funding if conditions are met.
