Slovenia’s Prime Minister Robert Golob casts his vote at a polling station during the Slovenian General Elections in Ljubljana, on March 22, 2026. Slovenians are voting in tight parliamentary elections, with the conservatives of veteran politician Janez Jansa, an admirer of US President Donald Trump, eyeing a comeback. A Jansa return could see the ex-Yugoslav nation, a European Union member of two million people, take an illiberal turn again after four years of centre-left rule under liberal Prime Minister Robert Golob.

Smoke rises from the site of an Israeli airstrike that targeted the Qasmiyeh bridge, located on a main highway linking villages in the Tyre district with others further north, after Israel had said the bridge was being used by Hezbollah, in southern Lebanon on March 22, 2026. Israel's military struck a key bridge in south Lebanon on Sunday, an AFP correspondent said, after Israel's defence minister said the army had been ordered to destroy more bridges over the Litani River. Lebanon was drawn into the Middle East war on March 2, when pro-Iran Hezbollah launched rockets towards Israel in response to US-Israeli strikes that killed Iranian supreme leader on February 28, 2026.
