Israeli minister murdered in Jerusalem hotel shooting
Gunmen lurking in a hotel hallway fatally shot Tourism Minister Rehavam Zeevi, 75, in Jerusalem. The PFLP claimed responsibility, vowing more killings, as Israel vows retaliation and tightens West Bank travel restrictions amid renewed crisis. Zeevi's death tests coalition unity and U.S. backed peace talks. Zeevi lived in Ramat Hasharon and was staying at the Hyatt Hotel when attacked.

Powell seeks easing of Kashmir tensions between India and Pakistan
Secretary of State Powell and Indian Foreign Minister Singh framed US-India ties as strong in a New Delhi briefing. Powell urged focus on anti-terrorism, acknowledged Vajpayee's invitation to Washington, and sought to calm disputes over Kashmir while denying mediation. Indian officials rejected Powell’s Kashmir phrasing as misquoted and emphasized state-sponsored terrorism as the root cause.
