On 9 June, an uprising of far-right agitators took to the streets of Belfast. These white rioters burned vehicles and houses, fought with the police, and targeted the homes and businesses of people of colour.

Iran’s football federation moved its base from Arizona to Tijuana after U.S. authorities signalled, they did not want the squad to remain in the United States for the tournament, a decision that Mexico stepped in…
