In his address to the nation from the Oval Office in the White House, US President Joe Biden called for unity the day after an assassination attempt on Donald Trump. “Remember, even if we don’t always agree, we’re not enemies. We are neighbors, friends, colleagues, and most importantly, we’re fellow Americans. We must stand together,” said Joe Biden.

In other news, at least five people were killed in a car bomb explosion at a cafe in Somalia’s capital Mogadishu, where soccer fans were watching the European Championship final late Sunday. Local police report that at least 20 people were injured in the attack.

In Malmö, Sweden, police were alerted to loud bangs in the residential area of Söderkulla at 1:12 am on Monday. “We received an alarm about loud bangs and when we went there for a check, we found empty shells,” said Ulrika Olsson, duty officer at the police. This incident is still being investigated.
