Morning Briefing: Europe Edition

April 2, 2024

Good morning. We're covering the killing of Iranian officers, and movement on U.S. aid to Ukraine.

Plus: An insider opens up about the Beatles.

Israeli strike killed Iranian commanders, officials said

At least three generals and four officers overseeing Iran's covert operations in the Middle East were killed in an Israeli strike in Syria yesterday, according to Iranian and Syrian officials.

The strike in Damascus, the Syrian capital, appeared to be among the deadliest attacks in a yearslong shadow war between Israel and Iran that has included the assassinations of Iranian military leaders and nuclear scientists.

Syrian and Iranian officials said that the strike had targeted a diplomatic building, which Israeli officials denied. Iran's foreign minister later said in a post on X that the "U.S. must answer" for Israel's actions.

The covert war has moved into the open as tensions have intensified over Israel's military campaign in the Gaza Strip against Hamas, the Iranian-backed militia that led the Oct. 7 attack on Israel.

U.S. closer to passing Ukraine aid

Mike Johnson, the U.S. House speaker, has begun laying out conditions for a fresh round of American military assistance to Ukraine, the strongest indication yet that the aid could pass within weeks.

The Senate already approved a $95 billion aid package for Ukraine and Israel, but it has been stalled on Capitol Hill for months amid Republican opposition in the House. Johnson, who is facing pressure from the Biden administration and NATO allies to pass the aid, has been searching for a path forward on the bill that would provoke the least political backlash from the hard-right flank of his party.

Now the question appears to be not whether Mr. Johnson will allow aid to come to the floor, but in what form and when.

An Italian province's investment in babies

Italy has one of the lowest birthrates in Europe, so low that Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Pope Francis have warned that Italians are in danger of disappearing.

But the Alto Adige-South Tyrol area and its capital, Bolzano, bucked the trend, with a birthrate holding steady over decades. The reason, experts said, is that the provincial government has over time developed a network of family-friendly benefits that go far beyond the one-time bonuses for babies that the national government offers.

The video game tycoon Lin Qi dreamed of turning "The Three-Body Problem," one of China's most famous science fiction novels, into a global hit. But he did not live to see "3 Body Problem" premiere on Netflix last month.

Lin, 39, was poisoned to death in Shanghai in 2020 by a disgruntled colleague, in a killing that one Chinese news outlet called "as bizarre as a Hollywood blockbuster."

A Beatles confidant tells all (again)

Peter Brown was a key figure in the Beatles' secretive inner circle, a former officer at the band's company, Apple Corps, and a trusted keeper of the Fab Four's secrets.

But Brown is also a polarizing figure in Beatles history. He became a kind of villain when he published "The Love You Make: An Insider's Story of the Beatles" with the writer Steven Gaines in 1983 — the book was seen by some as tawdry and sensational.

Next week, Brown and Gaines are releasing a new book, "All You Need Is Love: The Beatles in Their Own Words," made up of interviews they conducted in 1980 and 1981 with the band and people close to it, including business representatives, lawyers, wives and ex-wives. The new book goes even deeper into Beatles lore than the first.
