Earlier, the State Department agreed to supply Kiev with 500 anti-aircraft missiles for the American Patriot complexes for $ 2.1 billion. Canada, Germany, Norway and the European Union will finance the delivery.

A disputa contra o rebaixamento segue embolada na Série A Campeonato Brasileiro. Nesta sexta-feira (30), o Corinthians venceu o Mirassol por 2 a 0, na Neo Química Arena, ganhou sobrevida na luta pela permanência na elite e ultrapassou o Internacional na tabela.
Com o resultado, o Corinthians deixou a 18ª colocação e assumiu o 17º lugar, com 36 pontos, ainda dentro do Z4. O Botafogo, 11º colocado, soma 39 pontos. Entre as duas equipes, separadas por apenas três pontos, aparecem Coritiba, Vasco, Vitória, Grêmio e o próprio Mirassol. O Internacional, agora em 18º, tem 35 pontos.
Coritiba e Vitória ainda se enfrentam nesta rodada. As equipes entram em campo neste sábado (31), às 16h (de Brasília).
Grêmio e Corinthians ganham sobrevida
Grêmio e Corinthians foram os clubes que conseguiram respirar na luta contra o rebaixamento nesta rodada.
Antes de vencer o Athletico-PR, o Tricolor Gaúcho também estava no Z4, com 34 pontos. Com o triunfo por 2 a 0, ultrapassou Internacional e Corinthians e subiu para a 15ª colocação.
O Corinthians, por sua vez, ganhou apenas uma posição na tabela: deixou o 18º lugar, com 33 pontos, e chegou à 17ª colocação, com 36. Apesar de ainda estar na zona de rebaixamento, a vitória sobre o Mirassol representa um respiro importante, especialmente por se tratar de um adversário direto na disputa pela permanência na Série A.

The NYT Connections puzzle today is not too difficult if you're a pet owner.
Connections is the one of the most popular New York Times word games that's captured the public's attention. The game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier—so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.
If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for today's Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.
The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.
Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.
If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.
Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.
