Other notable stories include Israeli President Herzog's visit to Australia, Italy's avalanche warnings, and UK immigration changes post-Lai's sentencing.
The sentencing of Hong Kong media tycoon Jimmy Lai to 20 years in prison has concluded a significant national security trial. The case, which involves collusion with foreign forces, has attracted international interest and signifies China's tightening grip on freedoms in the once British colony.
In Kosovo, former President Hashim Thaci faces prosecution by international war crimes officials, who demand a 45-year sentence for crimes committed during the 1998-99 uprising. This case further scrutinizes the involvement of ethnic Albanian guerrillas and the region's tumultuous past with Serbia.
Global politics witness significant shifts as coalition talks in Thailand and immigration rule changes in Sweden unfold alongside economic realignments in India-US trade relations.
