2. President Vladimir Putin warned against letting Ukraine use Western weapons to strike deep inside Russia which he said could trigger a global conflict.

3. Britain’s first Black woman lawmaker, Diane Abbott, says she has been barred from running as a Labour candidate in the July 4 election after she was suspended more than a year ago for comments about Jews and racism.

4. South Africans vote in the most competitive election since the end of apartheid as polls suggest the ANC will lose its parliamentary majority after 30 years in government.

5. North Korea’s rare swipe at China underscores how Beijing and Pyongyang do not entirely see eye-to-eye on the latter’s illicit nuclear weapons arsenal, despite warming ties in other areas analysts and officials in South Korea said.
