The Supreme Court denied military chaplains' lawsuit claiming retaliation for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine. The appellate court ruled that the Defense Department's decision in January 2023 to rescind the vaccine mandate rendered the chaplains' case moot. The Defense Department was later ordered to pay $1.8 million in legal fees as settlement for two lawsuits over the mandate.

BELGRADE, July 19 (Reuters) - Three people were killed in a severe thunderstorm that hit Slovenia and Croatia on Wednesday, as parts of Europe struggled with record-high temperatures and wildfires, authorities said. In Croatia two people were killed and several were injured, the Civilian Defense Department said on its website. In neighboring Slovenia a woman was killed by a falling branch, and at least one person was injured, authorities said. Meteorologists in Serbia also issued a weather alert and warned that the so-called supercell storm, which brings hurricane-force winds, hail and rain, was moving in from Croatia and was expected to hit the country later in the day.
