Soweto Day remembered amid peaceful nationwide rallies
In Johannesburg and across South Africa Blacks held peaceful rallies to mark Soweto Day and the 1976 Soweto uprising that ignited a long anti-apartheid wave. About 20,000 attended a Soweto Stadium gathering as Walter Sisulu praised youth resistance, recalling 1976 police shootings that left hundreds dead.

Walesa defuses milk strike in Poland after talks
Solidarity leader Lech Walesa persuaded farmers in the Mlawa region to suspend a milk protest and road blockages until July 3 after three hours of talks. The move follows his previous success winning railroad workers to halt a Baltic port disruption two weeks earlier. The government remains firm against concessions.
