A June heat wave in Belgium and neighboring countries exposed a lethal lack of readiness. That’s a risk as another wave hits Europe. @jeannasmialek and @koba_ryck, plus... 1/2 https://t.co/8MMjmJULAD

The International desk of the @washingtonpost was one of the most special places in journalism. It was sadly dismantled but I’m so proud of all my colleagues there and where they are all going. The @nytimes is so lucky to have @emilyrauhala

The previously unknown images of Greek political prisoners, taken just before they were killed by the Nazis in 1944, had been put up for auction on eBay by a Belgian collector.

After freelancing for the paper for years, I joined the @nytimes Brussels bureau last week. I’ll be working with @jeannasmialek to cover Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and all things E.U.

Send me your secrets at [email protected] !

Personal news: I'm moving to Brussels in January to be the NYT's new bureau chief.

I'll miss the Fed beat, but I'm grateful for the opportunity and excited for the new adventure. Hit me up with your EU tips and food recs!

A decade ago, in the back office of a bookstore, George Saunders told me about that feeling you have saying goodbye to someone you love at the airport, that fleeting soft one, and how maybe that feeling is the truth.

Here’s the last episode of Longform. Thanks for everything.

The New Flemish Alliance’s victory will bring relief to the country’s political establishment, which had long been bracing for a victory by the far-right party Vlaams Belang. https://t.co/JAsinhh9SU

The skull of a Congolese leader, killed by colonial troops, has been stored in a Brussels museum for decades.

We wrote about the struggle to get it back -- reflecting a larger debate on Europe’s responsibility for the colonial atrocities.

New chapter: After four exhilarating years with @nytimes, I am moving to @AP to cover west Africa. Starting from June, I will be based in Dakar, trying to do justice to this fascinating and diverse region.

In Belgium, a draft law could help return the remains of some 500 people taken from former colonies. But a reluctance to examine Belgium’s history in Africa stands in the way. https://t.co/ony1vDnTmn

[Koba Ryckewaert @koba_ryck]

For decades, Belgium failed to return the remains of hundreds of people taken by force from former colonies. A draft law could change that, but critics say it is not going far enough.

Visual evidence and internal communications show that before the strike on World Central Kitchen, multiple aid operations and local staff shelters in Gaza had come under Israeli fire — even after the I.D.F. was notified of the locations and logged them as humanitarian sites. https://t.co/dcLLEWBs1G

[Caroline Gennez @carogennez]

It is with great sadness that I was informed that last night one of our @Enabel_belgium staff was killed by an Israeli bombardment.

Abdallah Nabhan and his 7-year-old son Jamal were killed in an attack on Rafah.
