February 8, 2022: Russia war ships, Black Sea, Putin, Macron, Ahmaud Arbery jury, Alabama electoral map, UK Labour leader
1. Six Russian warships are heading to the Black Sea from the Mediterranean for naval drills, the Interfax news agency cited Russia's Defence Ministry as saying, in what it said was a pre-planned movement of military resources.
2. Russian President Vladimir Putin described Monday's talks with French President Emmanuel Macron in the Kremlin as useful, substantive and business-like, and said that some of Macron's ideas could form a basis for further joint steps.
3. The first round of jury selection ended with 52 potential jurists interviewed in the U.S. federal hate-crimes trial of the three white men who murdered Ahmaud Arbery, a Black jogger who was chased and shot while running through a mostly white Georgia neighborhood.
4. The U.S. Supreme Court let Alabama use a Republican-backed map of the state's U.S. congressional districts that a lower court found likely discriminates against Black voters, handing an important victory to Republicans as they seek to regain control of Congress in the Nov. 8 elections.
5. After protesters hounded Britain's opposition leader Keir Starmer, Prime Minister Boris Johnson came underheavy pressure on Tuesday to withdraw a claim that Starmer had failed to prosecute one of the country's most notorious child abusers.
