(CNN)Joe Biden will win Georgia, CNN projected Friday, striking at the heart of what has been Republican presidential stronghold for nearly three decades. The former vice president is the first Democratic nominee to triumph in Georgia since Bill Clinton did it in 1992. Biden's victory adds 16 electoral votes to his tally, bringing him to 306 -- matching President Donald Trump's 2016 total. With CNN's projection that Trump will win North Carolina, the final tally is 306-232. In Georgia, Trump had raced out to an early lead in the counting, but Biden surged ahead as the votes from Atlanta and its suburbs were tabulated.
Tbilisi (Georgia), Jul 15 (EFE) .- (Camera: Misha Vignanski) Manuel Faúndez, born into a peasant family from Zamora who emigrated to France in the mid-1920s, never imagine he would serve in the Blue Division and that he would spend 11 years in Stalin's GULAG, and ended up creating a life in Georgia.FOOTAGE AND SOUNDBITES OF MANUEL FAÚNDEZ (SON) IN TBILISI.TRANSLATIONMy father didn't particularly enjoy telling the stories about the Blue Division or the Civil War, even if he got injured three times. Nor even the concentration camp. But sometimes I would know those stories in certain conversations with him.He lived in misery for 11 years in the Gulag. After Stalin's death he was freed and he came to Georgia. The key was given to him by one of his jailers, a Georgian. From time to time, he received lemons and mandarins from his relatives, so they deduced that the climate of Georgia was much milder than that of Russia and resembled that of Spain. So they decided to move to Tbilisi and that's where he met my mother, Mercedes.

The White House says US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have spoken about Gaza in their first conversation for nearly a month amid reports of tensions between the leaders. "The two leaders also reviewed the situation in Gaza and the shift to targeted operations that will enable the flow of increasing amounts of humanitarian assistance while keeping the military pressure on Hamas and its leaders," US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby tells reporters in a press briefing.
