Rift

BUDAPEST - Dozens of European leaders will be gingerly seeking to chart a more common future during a one-day summit in Hungary's capital on Thursday. Yet despite myriad economic challenges and two wars in the neighborhood, all eyes will be glued on Washington to see whether the pivotal US election will cause a political rift throughout the continent.

Two transgender sex workers have been detained in Turkey's Central Anatolian province of Karaman for beating and stabbing two men in a rift.
