Polish parliament starts work on reforming Constitutional Tribunal
Polish lawmakers will start debating on Wednesday plans to repair the functioning of the Constitutional Tribunal following changes made by the previous nationalist government that critics say have undermined the court's independence. This is one of the conditions that Poland, now led by pro-European Prime Minister Donald Tusk, must meet to regain access to billions of euros in EU funds. The Constitutional Tribunal, which rules on the validity of laws, was a key part of an overhaul of Poland's courts by the previous Law and Justice (PiS) government.

Some Palestinians forced to flee homes as Israel pounds northern Gaza
Some Palestinian civilians were fleeing their homes in northern Gaza on Wednesday just weeks after returning because of an Israeli bombardment which they said was as intense as at the start of the war. Much of the shelling was focused for a second day on Beit Lahiya on the northern edge of Gaza, where the Israeli military gave evacuation orders to four neighbourhoods on Tuesday, warning they were in a "dangerous combat zone". After a few weeks of relative calm, Israel intensified its attacks overnight on Monday, focusing on areas, particularly in the north, from where it had previously withdrawn many of its troops, saying Hamas was no longer in control.
