U.S. Capitol riot panel, Madeleine Albright, COVID

1. Russia's Gazprom halted gas supplies to Poland and Bulgaria over their failure to pay in roubles, cranking up an economic war with Europe in response to Western sanctions imposed for Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.

2. A court in military-ruled Myanmar sentenced deposed leader Aung San Suu Kyi to five years in jail after finding her guilty in the first of 11 corruption cases she faces, a source with knowledge of the proceedings said.

3. The U.S. Congress's official probe into the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the Capitol by Donald Trump's supporters plans to hold public hearings in June before issuing a final report in early autumn, its chairman said.

4. President Joe Biden, former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will lead tributes to Madeleine Albright, the first woman to helm the U.S. State Department, at a memorial service in Washington.

5. Millions of people in Beijing took their second COVID-19 tests of the week as the Chinese capital tried to keep an outbreak numbering in the dozens from spiralling into a crisis like the one the locked-down city of Shanghai is enduring.
