From the US Supreme Court’s ruling on TikTok and Israel’s cabinet okaying a ceasefire pact with Hamas to US President Joe Biden commuting the sentences of thousands, several important events took place in the world this week.

President-elect Donald Trump said mass deportations will begin “very quickly” after taking office, one of a number of plans he discussed in a phone interview with NBC News on Saturday.

They are also worried that China could use TikTok’s content recommendations to fuel misinformation, a concern that escalated in the United States after the start of the Israeli-Hamas war and ...

The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas will go into effect at 8:30 am local time (0630 GMT) on Sunday, mediator Qatar said.

After months of deadlock, Israel and Hamas have reached a deal for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release agreement. I spoke with USA TODAY World Affairs correspondent, Kim Hjelmgaard to learn more. Kim, thank you so much for making some time on this.

This week in politics, President Joe Biden delivered his farewell address, the Senate conducted confirmation hearings for President-elect Donald Trump's nominees, the Supreme Court upheld the looming TikTok ban, Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire, Trump's inauguration was moved indoors and more.

Despite facing a looming ban, ByteDance and the U.S. government have been locked in a proverbial game of chicken, with TikTok’s parent company refusing to divest more than a year later. Lawmakers and experts have long argued that the firm is beholden to the Chinese government, creating security risks for the app’s American users.

The Israeli security cabinet meeting to vote on a ceasefire deal with Hamas, which was delayed yesterday, is set for today. And, frigid temperatures are expected to envelop much of the U.S. next week.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu might not move forward with a ceasefire agreement until Hamas provides a list of the hostages set to be released.
