A Ukrainian lawmaker also confirmed Ukraine had received a small number of F-16 fighter jets.

In the U.S., 27 states allow the death penalty, but only seven have executed inmates in the past three years. — New Jersey’s ban on the AR-15 rifle is unconstitutional, but the state’s cap on magazines over 10 rounds passes constitutional muster, a federal judge said. U.S. District Judge Peter Sheridan’s 69-page opinion says he was compelled to rule as he did because of the Supreme Court’s rulings in firearms cases, particularly the 2022 Bruen decision that expanded gun rights. Sheridan’s ruling left both 2nd Amendment advocates and the state attorney general planning appeals. — Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian says the airline is facing $500 million in costs related to a global tech outage this month that disrupted emergency services, communications and thousands of businesses.
