President Joe Biden is sending his administration’s first national drug control strategy to Congress. White House drug czar Dr. Rahul Gupta says the strategy is the first to prioritize what’s known as harm reduction. That means it will focus on preventing death and illness in drug users while trying to engage them in care and treatment. The U.S. overdose death toll hit a new record of nearly 107,000 during the past 12 months. The document is headed to Congress on Thursday. It also includes targeting the financial activities of transnational criminal organizations and reducing the supply of illicit drugs smuggled across U.S. borders.

Israel’s air force and Palestinian militants have traded fire across the Gaza frontier as clashes erupted again between Israeli police and Palestinians at Jerusalem’s most sensitive holy site. The developments early Thursday worsened an escalation that has been eerily similar to the lead-up to last year’s Israel-Gaza war. The violence along the Gaza front, fueled by the unrest in Jerusalem, appears to be the heaviest-cross-border fighting since last year’s 11-day war. It comes despite efforts to prevent a repeat. Palestinian militants fired two rockets toward Israel from the Gaza Strip late Wednesday and earlier Thursday, and Israeli aircraft hit militant targets in Gaza.

Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI turned 95 this past weekend. And to mark the occasion, a new book sets out to examine the current state of the Catholic Church not so much through the lens of Pope Francis’ nine-year papacy, but via Benedict’s nine-year retirement. And it isn’t pretty. Veteran Italian commentator Massimo Franco’s “The Monastery,” published in Italy on Thursday, shifts the focus of most papal books by using Benedict’s retirement home in a converted monastery in the Vatican gardens as the symbolic prism to view the absolute anomaly of having two popes living together in the Vatican.
A leading human rights group is demanding that Sri Lankan authorities conduct a prompt and impartial probe into a police shooting. One person died and 13 others were injured in the shooting during protests over fuel price hike amid the country’s worst economic crisis in decades. The New York-based Human Rights Watch urged authorities to probe the “apparent use of excessive force by police” in the incident. Patricia Grossman, the group’s associate Asia director, said the use of live ammunition by police against demonstrators “appears to be a flagrant misuse of lethal force.” The shooting was the first by security forces during weeks of protests. It reignited widespread demonstrations across the Indian Ocean island nation.
