1. Weather officials are forecasting localized thunderstorms in northern parts of Japan on Tuesday. Previous rainfalls have loosened the ground and damaged river embankments in areas of Yamagata and Akita prefectures in Tohoku, raising the risk of disaster even if only a small amount of rain falls.
2. Japan continued its strong start to the Paris Olympics on Monday when the men’s gymnastics team staged an impressive comeback to defeat China and claim one of two gold medals on the day. Japan had the upper hand after a Chinese gymnast fell off the high bar twice. This is Japan’s firs gold in the event since the 2016 Rio Games. China won the silver and the US took the bronze.
3. US tech billionaire Elon Musk has been accused of spreading an apparently digitally-altered video of Vice President Kamala Harris on his social media platform X. The video appears to have been altered from a campaign ad created by Harris’ team. US media and observers argue that his repost could be a violation of x’s policies which state, “You may not deceptively share synthetic or manipulated media that are likely to cause harm.”
