Watch: 2 needed to win, Neil Wagner crushes James Anderson and England as New Zealand win thriller by barest of margins

And rightfully it was so for New Zealand, who scripted one of their greatest ever comebacks in a Test match. Then Ben Foakes got his act together with his valiant knock before James Anderson smashed one through the mid-wicket to put England two runs away from the win. The left-armer returned after Southee's maiden over, angled the second delivery of the over across to the leg side as Anderson went for the poke. Anderson was left gutted, murmuring words to himself as Wagner and New Zealand begun their celebration. Special mention to Kane, Tommy and Timmy the way they batted," Wagner said after the win.

Jewish groups condemn settler rampage, avoid mentioning Netanyahu

As American Jewish organizations responded to Sunday’s settler riot in the West Bank, most began with statements of condemnation. In 2007 it stood out among Jewish groups leading criticism of the then-Israeli government for contemplating a Palestinian role in Jerusalem. Beyond the O.U., Jewish groups decried the actions of the settlers but mostly avoided mentioning the Israeli government or its leader. Against that backdrop, Netanyahu did not feature in many American Jewish organizations’ statements. A number of regional Jewish organizations and rabbis have previously called for boycotts of far-right coalition members if and when they tour the United States.

Banished Nicaraguans Assess Ways Out of Migration Limbo

Nicaraguans in San Jose, Costa Rica, celebrate the release of 222 political prisoners on February 9, 2023. Some “stateless” Nicaraguans in the US are betting on continuing their asylum process there before accepting another nationality. Spain, Chile, Colombia, Argentina, and Mexico offered their nationality to the “stateless” Nicaraguans. Gomez, who denounced the abuses of the Ortega regime to a US congressional committee, assured that she will remain “stateless” until her asylum process progresses. This translates into generating facilities for political asylum, refuge or stateless status.
