President Trump’s Washington Arch project won critical approval from a government committee, but a judge could still block construction.

Several European passenger flights were diverted on Thursday after receiving bomb threats. A Wizz Air service from Milan to Warsaw was rerouted to Vienna in flight, the airline said. The French prime minister’s office said a Dublin–Rome flight diverted to a military base in Evreux, Normandy, after a threat and is monitoring the situation. Similar threats earlier this week disrupted multiple flights; authorities report no clear pattern by carrier or route. Bomb threats are uncommon and are almost always later found to be false alarms. European airspace handles more than 30,000 flights daily.

Ukraine's foreign minister said the war cannot end without the United States and without President Trump, and that Europe's new role needs to be defined.
