- Tornadoes and floods devastate central U.S. East Africa suffers worst drought in 60 years.
- Two terrorist attacks in one day stun Norway.
- Syrian military kills rebels.
- Rioters burn British cities after police shoot a black man.
- Hurricane Irene hits the U.S. East Coast.

- Israelis attack Gaza, again.
- Texas suffers record-breaking wildfires.
- The king of Saudi Arabia gives women the right to vote but not the right to drive.
- Riots in Greece oppose austerity measures to avoid defaulting on debts.
- U.S. drones kill Al-Qaeda leaders in Pakistan.
- Lybian dictator Muammar el-Qaddafi is captured and killed by rebels.
- Italy passes austerity measures as its media magnate president resigns.
- Islamists win the post-revolution elections in Egypt and Tunisia amid fears of religious dictatorships.
