President Trump says he doesn't want to do business with 'threat' Huawei

US President Donald Trump said he does not want to do business with Huawei and denied reports that Washington would continue to allow the company to buy US equipment. “At this point, it’s almost like we’re not going to do business with them. I don’t want to do business with them at all because it’s a national security threat,” President Donald Trump said.

US media previously reported that the US Department of Commerce was preparing to extend Huawei's license to continue doing business with US companies for another 90 days after the old agreement expired on August 19. However, President Trump denied this information and said that the media reported differently from reality. "When the news came out today, I was surprised that we are willing to do business with Huawei. Actually, we are not willing to do business with them, so I don't know who wrote that news," President Trump said.

Syria accuses Türkiye of sending troops to support terrorists

A Turkish military convoy of at least five tanks and 50 armored vehicles moved through Syria's northwestern Idlib province on August 19 to the town of Khan Sheikhun, a strategic location recaptured from rebels by Syrian government forces a day earlier. "Turkish vehicles carrying weapons and ammunition are heading to Khan Sheikhun to support terrorists. This shows that Ankara is supporting terrorist organizations," Syrian state television quoted an unnamed Syrian diplomatic official as saying.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said Syrian and Russian forces carried out several airstrikes to disrupt the Turkish convoy, killing a pro-Ankara fighter. Meanwhile, the Turkish Defense Ministry confirmed that the Syrian airstrikes killed three civilians and wounded 12. Ankara said the convoy was attacked while en route to a Turkish observation post in Idlib province, accusing Syria of violating an agreement between Türkiye and Russia.

Israeli Prime Minister visits Ukraine, holds talks with President Zelensky

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky held talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on August 19, who is on a three-day visit to Ukraine. This is the first visit by an Israeli leader to Ukraine in 20 years. A previous statement from the Israeli Prime Minister's Office stated that Netanyahu will discuss with President Zelensky the issue of the rights of Ukrainian immigrants in Israel.

The Israeli prime minister's visit to Ukraine comes less than a month before Israel's September 17 election and is seen as an attempt by Netanyahu to strengthen his influence among the Ukrainian Israeli community, which has long favored Avigdor Lieberman's Yisrael Beitenu party over Netanyahu's Likud party.

AFP reported that Britain said on August 19 that it would immediately end freedom of movement for people from European Union (EU) countries, after London leaves the EU (also known as Brexit) on October 31. This is a policy change under Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

"Freedom of movement as it currently stands will end on 31 October when the UK leaves the EU," a UK government spokeswoman said. She added that the government planned to "tighten the criminal rules on people [entering] the UK" as part of the new tough stance.

Afghanistan shaken again by series of bombings

A series of bombs rocked restaurants and a square in the eastern Afghan city of Jalalabad on Monday, wounding at least 34 people, officials said. The Jalalabad bombings occurred near a market where hundreds of people had gathered after attending events to mark the 100th anniversary of Afghanistan's independence.

No group has claimed responsibility for the series of bombings in Jalalabad, but the area is home to both the self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS) and the Taliban. IS previously claimed responsibility for a deadly bombing at a wedding in Kabul over the weekend that killed 63 people and injured nearly 200.
