The FBI disrupted a domestic terror plot by the far-left 'Turtle Island Liberation Front' that planned to bomb multiple locations in California starting on New Year's Eve.

The new MI6 chief Blaise Metreweli warns that Russia remains an aggressive threat using sabotage, cyberattacks, and disinformation against Ukraine and NATO, while US peace envoys reportedly pressure Ukraine to withdraw from Donetsk and abandon NATO membership aspirations.

Romania's coalition government narrowly survived a no-confidence vote over a judicial pension reform bill required for EU recovery funds, with a Constitutional Court ruling due December 28 that could determine its stability.
