EVERY WEEKDAY EVENING, The Journal brings you five of the biggest news stories of the day so far.
1. #UKRAINE Ukrainian Presdent Volodymyr Zelenskyy said US President Donald Trump is living in a “disinformation space” after he blamed Ukraine for starting the war with Russia, which actually began when Russia invaded almost three years ago.
2. #GAEILGE The Irish language took centre stage in the Dáil once again as TDs voted for a new Leas-Cheann Comhairle.
3. #POPE’S HEALTH Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said she found Pope Francis to be “alert and responsive” during a visit to see him in hospital.
4. #HOSPITAL The Northern Ireland Executive announced that works are finally due to start on a new children’s hospital in Belfast — five years after the hospital was initially supposed to open.
5. #THE SUN WILL COME OUT There was a sense of cautious optimism in Dublin this morning as the sun appeared after 10 continuous days of grey skies.
