G7 leaders announce new sanctions targeting Russia's involvement in Ukraine war.

The G7 leaders are set to announce new sanctions against Russia during the gathering in Hiroshima, aimed at disrupting Russia's ability to get materials it needs for the battlefield, closing loopholes used to evade sanctions, further reducing international reliance on Russian energy, and narrowing Moscow's access to the international financial system. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will attend the G7 summit in Hiroshima in person. A US air national guard member, Jack Teixeira, accused of leaking highly classified military documents, including sensitive information about the war in Ukraine, is due back in federal court today in Worcester, Massachusetts.
