Trump has maintained a close relationship with Bolsonaro and used trade leverage as a diplomatic tool. This move reflects Trump’s broader strategy of linking trade policy with political considerations. The proposal underscores ongoing tensions between Brazil’s current and former administrations. It also highlights how international trade is increasingly intertwined with bilateral political dynamics.

Under the U.S.-brokered ceasefire agreement in Gaza, what is the ratio of Palestinian bodies Israel agreed to return for each hostage body recovered by Hamas?
15 Palestinian bodies for every 1 hostage bodyAs part of the fragile ceasefire brokered by the U.S. and effective from October 10, 2025, Israel agreed to return 15 bodies of Palestinians for every body of an Israeli hostage returned by Hamas. This arrangement aims to facilitate the recovery of remains and build trust between the warring sides. So far, Israel has repatriated 195 Palestinian bodies, while Hamas has returned 18 hostage bodies but none in the past five days. The process has been hampered by extensive destruction in Gaza, making recovery efforts difficult. U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly urged Hamas to accelerate the return of remaining bodies, warning of consequences if delays continue.

Which two teams shared points in a rain-affected ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 match that was abandoned in Navi Mumbai?
India and BangladeshThe ICC Women's World Cup 2025 group stage match between India and Bangladesh was abandoned due to persistent rain at DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The match had been reduced to 27 overs per side, and India was comfortably placed at 57/0 in 8.4 overs while chasing a revised target of 126. However, another rain interruption led umpires to call off the game, resulting in both teams sharing a point each. This outcome had minimal impact on India’s campaign as they had already secured a semifinal berth. The incident also raised concerns about outfield drainage and ground management during unseasonal showers.

Which English spinner was the pick of the bowlers in England’s win over New Zealand in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025?
Linsey SmithIn England’s dominant eight-wicket victory over New Zealand in their final group match of the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025, left-arm spinner Linsey Smith emerged as the standout bowler. She returned figures of 3 for 30 in her 9.2 overs, playing a crucial role in restricting New Zealand to a tournament-low total of 168. Her performance was especially vital as England’s lead spinner Sophie Ecclestone was ruled out early due to a shoulder injury. Smith’s control and variations in the middle overs dismantled New Zealand’s batting lineup. This win helped England secure the second spot on the points table with 11 points, setting up a semifinal clash against South Africa.
