The US has imposed sanctions on the Chinese military over its purchasing of Russian military jets and surface-to-air missiles. It says such purchases contravene US sanctions on Moscow introduced over Russian actions in Ukraine and alleged interference in US politics. China recently bought 10 Russian Su-35 fighter jets and S-400 missiles. Beijing has not joined in the sanctions imposed on Moscow by the US and its Western allies since 2014.

Local reports say five people, have been injured in a shooting in the city of Syracuse in the state of New York. According to witnesses, a family had gathered to celebrate the life of a relative who had recently died when the shooting occurred on Thursday. The media reports police later said the shots had come from across the street, hitting the lawn where the victims had gathered for the memorial.

In 1792 the Legislative Assembly voted to abolish the monarchy and establish the First Republic. The measure came one year after King Louis XVI reluctantly approved a new constitution that stripped him of much of his power.

Fun fact of the day : Moon flowers actually bloom in response to the moon.
