Judge reinstates nationwide halt on asylum policy plan
A California judge reinstated a nationwide injunction blocking the Trump administration's plan to bar most migrants from seeking asylum at the U.S. Mexico border. Judge Jon Tigar said the injunction should apply nationwide to preserve uniform immigration policy as groups supporting asylum seekers argued the rule would harm entrants across the region. The ruling follows a prior 9th Circuit decision that limited the halt to states within its jurisdiction, leaving New Mexico and Texas unaffected.

North Korea fired two projectiles toward the sea from South Pyongan near Pyongyang, hours after proposing to resume nuclear diplomacy with the United States. The launches, the eighth round since late July, aim to pressure Washington for new concessions as talks prepare to restart. The JCS says first steps will monitor further tests and determine weapon specs.
