Electric car rivals BYD and Tesla are set to be the biggest losers from Mexico’s proposed 50 percent tariff on autos imported from China, potentially dealing a blow to the fast-growing electric car market in Mexico, while sparing the traditional "Big Three" U.S. car manufacturers.

The proposed tariff, announced on Wednesday, targets electric and gasoline cars imported from all countries with which Mexico doesn’t have a free trade agreement, including South Korea, India, Indonesia, and Russia. In practice, however, the tariff would mostly impact electric cars manufactured in China and sold in Mexico, industry analysts said.

Israel bombed a villa in Qatar on September 9th, targeting Hamas leaders for the first time and killing six people, though the group’s top figures survived. The strike disrupted talks over a Trump-backed ceasefire deal and may end Qatar’s role as mediator, likely shifting negotiations to Egypt. It risks worsening the Gaza war debate in Israel, endangering hostages, straining ties with the U.S., and alarming Gulf states, which condemned the attack and fear growing Israeli aggression and regional escalation.
