Hillary Clinton endorses Joe Biden’s White House bid

WASHINGTON: Former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton endorsed Joe Biden's White House bid on Tuesday.
"I want to add my voice to the many who have endorsed you to be our president," Clinton said during a live video conference with the former vice president.
"I wish you were president right now," the former First Lady and Secretary of State said.
"Think of what it would mean if we had a real president not just somebody who plays one on TV," she added in a jab at President Donald Trump, Biden's expected opponent in November.

UK defense minister heads to Cyprus amid Middle East war

LONDON: Britain’s Defense Minister John Healey is headed to Cyprus, media reports said, following the outbreak of war in the Middle East and a drone strike on a UK air base on the Mediterranean island.
Healey would arrive later Thursday, the BBC and the PA news agency reported.
The visit comes after the runway of the Royal Air Force (RAF) base at Akrotiri came under attack by an unmanned drone on Monday.
