November 17, 2022: Republicans win U.S. House majority, Bass wins LA mayor race, Russia-Ukraine, UK budget, Black Sea grain deal

1. Republicans were projected to win a majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, setting the stage for two years of divided government as President Joe Biden's Democratic Party held control of the Senate.

2. Karen Bass, a Democratic U.S. congresswoman, was projected to beat Rick Caruso in the race for Los Angeles mayor, becoming the first woman to lead the nation's second-largest city.

3. Russia again unleashed missiles against Ukrainian energy facilities, while its forces stepped up attacks in eastern Ukraine, reinforced by troops pulled from Kherson city in the south which Kyiv recaptured last week.

4. British finance minister Jeremy Hunt announced a string of tax increases and tighter public spending in a budget plan that he said was needed after the blow dealt to the country's fiscal reputation by former prime minister Liz Truss.

5. A deal aimed at easing global food shortages by facilitating Ukraine's agricultural exports from its southern Black Sea ports was extended for 120 days, though Moscow said its own demands were yet to be fully addressed.
