Taiwan braces for Typhoon Kong-rey, which could become the third typhoon to make landfall this year, arriving unusually late in the season. With the U.S. presidential election just a week away, a comedian's crude comments at a Trump rally have stoked resentment and ire among Latino voters, particularly voters of Puerto Rican descent who could be decisive in the crucial swing state of Pennsylvania. Meanwhile, Taiwan's defense ministry has signed a deal to order 1,000 attack drones from the United States. Plus:
- Premier Cho Jung-tai rejects former U.S. President Donald Trump's claims that Taiwan "stole" the U.S. chip industry.
- North Korea has sent around 10,000 troops to Russia to fight its war against Ukraine, according to the U.S. defense department.
- Reuters reports that Chinese President Xi Jinping asked U.S. President Joe Biden at their meeting last year to change the U.S. stance on Taiwan independence from "does not support" to one of active opposition.
