This is a great newsletter I ran across for keeping up to date on what's going on in Africa, it has lots of links throughout to other sources as well.

Does anybody know of similar newsletters or publications for other areas of the world? Most of my news feed is centered around the US and Europe but I'd love to get more news about what's going on in other areas of the world.

The first ouside US and Europe that come to my mind are https://eurasianet.org and https://hongkongfp.com

The sites https://globalvoices.org and https://restofworld.org cover news from around the globe.

Edit: Not to forget the news from the Global South at https://www.ipsnews.net
