For decades, immigrant peddlers like Usman Dianj, above, have been part of the familiar fabric of the Italian summer vacation. Now, politics make that more difficult.

Here’s what else is happening

Hurricane Dorian: Five people were confirmed dead as the powerful Category 5 storm pummeled the Bahamas before weakening to Category 3, and it is expected to move “dangerously close” to the Florida coast on Tuesday night. It was difficult to determine the extent of the damage caused by one of the most powerful Atlantic storms on record.

Afghanistan: The U.S. would pull 5,400 troops and leave five military bases in about 20 weeks, according to the American special envoy, as part of a deal being finalized with the Taliban that awaits President Trump’s approval. Shortly after the envoy spoke, a huge explosion shook Kabul.

Russian arrests: The lawyer Lyubov Sobol, the public face of recent rallies, and two others were detained in Moscow in a sweep of opposition figures ahead of an election this Sunday.

Texas: The authorities are hunting for the motive of a 36-year-old gunman who opened fire in two West Texas towns with an assault-style rifle on Saturday, indiscriminately killing seven people and injuring 22 before the police shot him dead. The case intensified the national debate over gun control.

California: The U.S. Coast Guard is searching for more than 30 missing passengers after a scuba diving boat caught fire off the coast of Southern California early Monday. Eight people were confirmed dead. Five crew members who were awake and on deck were able to escape.
