EU antitrust challenge to Broadcom‑VMware merger
The European Commission’s approval of Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware is being contested by the cloud‑services lobby CISPE, which argues that the deal threatens competition in server‑virtualisation software and could enable bundled sales that stifle rivals such as Marvell. Silicon.fr details three legal grounds for the challenge, from alleged dominance to insufficient scrutiny of innovation impacts, while noting the 28.4 billion‑dollar debt load Broadcom will carry post‑deal.

Trump pushes for return of Bagram airbase
The Washington Post reports that former President Donald Trump is lobbying for the United States to retake the former Bagram airfield in Afghanistan, a move the outlet says could signal a renewed strategic foothold despite the Taliban’s recent propaganda showing the site repurposed for civilian activities. The article highlights satellite imagery that depicts makeshift aircraft decoys and scavenged equipment, underscoring the symbolic value the base still holds for U.S. policymakers.

Climate & Health Impacts
First Tuvalu climate refugees arrive in Australia under the Falepili Union agreement
RFI reports that the inaugural group of climate‑displaced Tuvaluans—among them a carer, a dentist and a pastor—has landed in Australia, fulfilling a 2023 bilateral pact that promises asylum for the entire 11,000‑person island nation should sea‑level rise render it uninhabitable. Scientists warn that up to 90 % of Tuvalu could be submerged by 2050, making this migration a harbinger of larger climate‑driven population movements.

U.S. advisory panel overturns long‑standing hepatitis B birth‑dose recommendation
STAT News explains that the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted to drop the universal birth‑dose hepatitis B vaccine policy, a change that could create confusion for families and health‑care providers accustomed to the decades‑old schedule. Critics argue the shift neglects downstream effects on vaccine uptake and on the broader goal of eliminating hepatitis B transmission, especially in low‑resource settings.
