Republican caucuses live updates: Trump wins Iowa’s leadoff voting contest

Donald Trump has decisively won the Iowa caucuses with his closest rivals languishing far behind, a crucial victory that reinforces the former president's grip on his party at the outset of the GOP's 2024 nomination fight. It was not immediately clear who would emerge as the second-place finisher, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis or former UN ambassador Nikki Haley. Caucus voters endured life-threatening cold and dangerous driving conditions to participate in meetings that unfolded in hundreds of schools, churches and community centres across the state. The results are just the first in what will be a months-long effort for Trump to secure the GOP nomination a third consecutive time. But the victory sends an unmistakable message to the Republican Party that the nomination is Trump...

Rescuers bring out five people trapped in Slovenian cave by high waters

Slovenia's rescuers on Monday successfully extracted five people who had been trapped in a cave for more than two days because of high water levels.

Israel says Hezbollah struck sensitive air traffic base in the north and warns of ‘another war’

Hezbollah has struck an air traffic control base in northern Israel, the Israeli military said on Sunday, and warned of "another war" with the Iran-backed militant group. The increase in fighting across the border with Lebanon as Israel battles Hamas militants in Gaza gave new urgency to US diplomatic efforts as Secretary of State Antony Blinken prepared to visit Israel on his latest Middle East tour. "This is a conflict that could easily metastasise, causing even more insecurity and even more suffering," Blinken told reporters after talks in Qatar, a key mediator. The escalation of cross-border fighting between Israel and Hezbollah has complicated a US push to prevent a regional conflict. The Israeli military said Hezbollah fire hit the sensitive air traffi...
