Good evening. Here's the latest at the end of Friday.
Britain is prodding Biden to allow Kyiv to strike in RussiaKeir Starmer, Britain's new prime minister, met with President Biden today at the White House to discuss Western support for Ukraine. Starmer was expected to urge Biden to allow the Ukrainians to fire NATO-provided missiles deep inside Russian territory. Getting Biden's approval on such strikes is critical: the missiles use satellite data and other technology supplied by the U.S. Recent indications suggest that Biden will eventually give his sign off, so long as American weapons are not being fired deep inside Russia. Starmer's push has stoked tensions between London and Russia. Russia expelled six British diplomats today, accusing them of espionage, and Vladimir Putin said yesterday that Western support for Ukrainian strikes in Russia would mean that NATO countries, including the U.S., would be "at war" with Russia. American and European officials insist that Ukraine's efforts to expand its gains on the battlefield — including by using NATO-provided missiles — could encourage Putin to seriously engage in peace negotiations. In related news, the U.S., Canada and Britain accused RT, Russia's global television network, of working on behalf of Russian intelligence agencies.
Election results could take awhileIf you're planning to host an election night party, you probably won't be popping champagne by the end of the evening. That's because it's quite possible that there will be no clear winner on election night, and early returns could give a false impression of who will ultimately prevail, as was the case in 2020. But that doesn't necessarily point to failures in the process. Large numbers of Americans are expected to cast their ballots by mail, a process that takes more time. Also, states with prolonged vote-counting processes, like Arizona, have become competitive. And the race between Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump appears extremely close, suggesting that a decisive landslide is unlikely.
Hamas uses brutality to maintain powerBoth Israel and Hamas commit questionable acts nearly every day in Gaza, U.S. officials said. Many reports reviewed by U.S. intelligence involve Israeli actions that kill civilians, but a large number of reports also involve Hamas, which continues to instill fear in the people it rules despite the chaos in the territory. Hamas's practice of operating from civilian areas in Gaza has drawn sharp criticism from Palestinians. Some Palestinians who have spoken out against the militant group have been threatened and intimidated. Israel-Hezbollah: New details have emerged about how Israeli special forces destroyed a Hezbollah weapons center in Syria. Here is what to know about the attack.
Boar's Head shut down its Virginia plantBoar's Head said today that it would indefinitely shut down the Virginia plant that caused a deadly listeria outbreak. Union officials said that the plant's 500 workers would be provided with severance packages. The company also said that liverwurst processing was the source of contamination, and that it would permanently discontinue the product. More top news
TV's big night is on SundayThe television industry will toast itself at the Emmy Awards on Sunday for the second time this year. (Last year's Emmys were held in January because of the Hollywood strikes.) Our television reporter John Koblin told the "Culture Desk" podcast that even though the Emmys were famously predictable, there could be upsets. He's particularly interested to see if "Shogun," with 25 nominations, will reign at the ceremony, and whether "The Bear" can continue to rake in awards, despite disappointment over its third season. For more: Here are 27 television shows we're looking forward to this fall.
Redefining American styleAt Europe's fashion houses, traditional ideas of beauty still dominate. But a new generation of New York designers is putting politics front and center to reinvent the very idea of American fashion. It's not about Republicans versus Democrats, our critic Vanessa Friedman explained, but rather about how political issues — such as immigration, economic inequality, freedom of choice — are reflected in fashion. Here's a look at the new style.

The wide world of white wallsWhite may seem as if it's just another color — until you start looking to paint your walls. Then you realize that Super White, Extra White and White Dove make up a tiny fraction of a diverse category; Home Depot alone offers 160 different whites. The endless options can certainly be head-spinning. But depending on your wall's surroundings — the light, the furnishings and even the home style — some whites really do look better than others. Take our quiz to see if you can tell the difference between shades of white. Have a nuanced weekend. Thanks for reading. I'll be away next week. My colleague Justin Porter will write this newsletter. — Matthew Kirsten Luce was our photo editor today. We welcome your feedback. Write to us at evening@nytimes.com.
