June 24, 2022: U.S. Senate passes gun safety bill, Ukrainians set to quit embattled Sievierodonetsk, Trump allies sought pardons, Boris, Afghan earthquake

1. A bipartisan package of modest gun safety measures passed the U.S. Senate late even as the Supreme Court broadly expanded gun rights by ruling Americans have a constitutional right to carry handguns in public for self-defense.

2. Ukraine signaled its troops were withdrawing from the city of Sievierodonetsk, the scene of weeks of intense bombardments and street fighting, in a move that would be a significant setback in its struggle to defeat Russian forces.

3. At least five congressional Republican allies of Donald Trump sought White House pardons after supporting his attempts to overturn his 2020 election defeat, witnesses on Thursday told the U.S. House of Representatives probe into the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the Capitol.

4. Boris Johnson's Conservatives lost two parliamentary seats, a crushing blow to the governing party that prompted the resignation of its chairman and intensified doubts about the future of Britain's prime minister.

5. Five people were killed on Friday in eastern Afghanistan after fresh tremors shook areas close to the epicentre of Wednesday's 6.1 magnitude earthquake, a senior Afghan official said.
