De Beers reshapes amid weak diamond market collapse
De Beers plans a private buyout after a stockpile reduction and a shift from market custodian to industry leader. The consortium takeover ends a century of centralized control as the firm downsizes its stockpile, sells through new retail ventures with LVMH, and seeks to curb conflict diamonds while expanding global influence.

Israelis enraged by deaths escalate West Bank violence
In Jerusalem Jewish settlers strike back against mounting deaths with vigilante tactics including stoning and shooting at Palestinian cars. A 63 year old settler was killed earlier this week, while Palestinian deaths near Ramallah and in Gaza add to the clashes. The day also saw the death of Faisal Husseini and renewed cease fire disputes as U S efforts yield little. The cycle of attacks and retaliations continues amid tensions across the region.
