World in brief: August 14, 2024

GERMANY: A federal court ordered the suspension today of a ban on the far-right magazine Compact that the government imposed last month, ruling that it can keep publishing while judges consider the company’s appeal.
The interior minister banned the publication last month, describing it as a “central mouthpiece of the right-wing extremist scene” that “agitates in unspeakable ways” against Jews, migrants and democracy.
