1. Cross-border fighting between Israel and Hamas appeared to abate slightly, with no fatalities logged in Gaza for the first time since hostilities erupted on May 10.

2. President Joe Biden will send at least 20 million more COVID-19 vaccine doses abroad by the end of June, marking the first time the United States is sharing vaccines authorized for domestic use.

3. New York state this week will drop face mask requirements in most public spaces for people vaccinated against COVID-19, conforming with the latest U.S. CDC guidance, Governor Andrew Cuomo said.

4. The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to consider gutting the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized abortion nationwide, taking up Mississippi's bid to revive a Republican-backed state law that bans the procedure after 15 weeks of pregnancy.

5. India total COVID-19 caseload surged past 25 million as a powerful cyclone complicated the health crisis in one of the states where the disease is spreading most quickly.
