 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. Support for the Mamdani campaign reflects a shift to the left among workers and youth, but Mamdani's program does not represent a way forward in the fight against oligarchy and dictatorship. The attacks killed 46 children and 20 women and injured over 200 people, according to Gaza's health ministry. The massive social crisis that could be unleashed in two days shows that the social content of Trump's dictatorship is a war on the working class, imposing the costs of the mounting crisis of US capitalism by throwing conditions back decades. The acute shortage of air traffic controllers and antiquated equipment has created dangerous conditions for both passengers and workers. General Motors on Wednesday announced a new wave of job cuts at its US electric-vehicle and battery operations, part of a mounting assault on jobs throughout the American and global economy. The meeting between the two leaders comes as Tokyo is dramatically ramping up its agenda for remilitarization and the corresponding attacks on the conditions of the working class. Fed chair Jerome Powell warned that a further rate cut in December, which markets had largely priced in, was not a "foregone conclusion." On September 24, security forces opened fire on unarmed protestors opposing the Indian central government's oppressive rule of the region, killing four and wounding more than 150.

Florida stands out nationwide for its execution process, largely due to the extraordinary power vested in the governor, who holds the sole authority to select and set the execution dates for death row inmates.
