Starmer to visit Gulf as he seeks stronger economic and defence ties with UAE and Saudi Arabia

BREAKING: After France UK To Recognize The State Of Palestine |‘Palestine Statehood An INALIENABLE…’

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under growing international and domestic pressure to officially recognize the state of Palestine. Following France’s bold move and mounting calls from within his own cabinet, Starmer now claims recognition is inevitable, declaring Palestinian statehood an “inalienable right.” However, he stopped short of providing a timeline, raising questions over the UK’s real intent. In the backdrop of the catastrophic Gaza crisis, where over 38,000 have died and thousands more are displaced, Starmer pledged humanitarian aid, child evacuations, and renewed diplomatic efforts. Yet critics argue that his words fall short without clear policy moves. As Macron gains global support for France’s recognition, eyes are now fixed on whether Starmer will act — or delay. The Gaza war’s horrors have intensified demands for urgent Western action.

USS Nimitz: U.S’ Flagship Aircraft Carrier Heads West | Israel’s Power Boosted | Headache for Iran

The U.S. appears to be stepping directly into the escalating Israel-Iran conflict, deploying its aircraft carrier USS Nimitz toward the Persian Gulf. The carrier’s Vietnam port call was abruptly cancelled due to “emergent operational requirements,” sparking speculation of heightened American military readiness. While the U.S. denies involvement in Israel’s June 13 strikes, Trump admitted American-supplied systems were key. Iran has accused the U.S. of enabling Israeli attacks and warned that strikes on U.S. bases would be considered an act of war. #USNavy #USSNimitz #IsraelIranConflict #BreakingNews #MiddleEastTensions #PersianGulf #RedSea #USMilitary #Trump #USBases #IranNuclear #IsraelStrikes #IranAccusesUS #AircraftCarrier #USDeployments #Geopolitics #USIranTensions #WarFooting #MarineTraffic #USSupportToIsrael #MilitaryEscalation #EmergencyDeployment #DanangVisitCancelled #AbbasAraghchi #GlobalCrisis #MilitaryPosture #USIsraelAlliance #IranWarWarning #NavalPower #USStrikeGroup Also Read Israeli Missile Hit Iran's TV Studio During Live Bulletin; Video Goes Viral :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-missile-hit-irans-tv-studio-during-live-bulletin-video-goes-viral-4183489.html?ref=DMDesc G7 Backs Israel, Says Tel Aviv Has Right To Self-defence; No Nukes To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/g7-backs-israel-says-tel-aviv-has-right-to-self-defence-no-nukes-to-iran-4183393.html?ref=DMDesc Khawaja Asif: Pakistan Made ‘No Such Commitment’ To Iran On Israel Nuclear Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/khawaja-asif-pakistan-made-no-such-commitment-to-iran-on-israel-nuclear-strike-4183025.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~

Kremlin’s Most SHOCKING Move Yet? Backs France’s Recognition of Palestine |Defies Trump & Netanyahu

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macron’s bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September — making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestine’s 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macron’s decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a “reward for terror” and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it “reckless.” Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it “historic.” Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition. #Russia #Palestine #Israel #France #Macron #UN #TwoStateSolution #MiddleEastConflict #Kremlin #PalestinianStatehood #GazaWar #Netanyahu #MarcoRubio #USIsraelTensions #UNRecognition #WorldNews #GlobalDiplomacy #EastJerusalem #WestBank #PalestineRecognition

Saudi Arabia to give $6Bn to Syria | Big jolt to Netanyahu | Israel's role in Syrian Civil War ends?

Saudi Arabia has signed over $6 billion in investment deals with Syria, signaling strong support for President Al-Sharaa amid ongoing unrest. The agreements cover energy, infrastructure, real estate, and agriculture, aiming to revive Syria’s war-torn economy and create up to 200,000 jobs. Analysts see this as a major geopolitical shift—and a blow to Israel’s regional influence—as Tel Aviv has actively targeted Syrian positions during its civil war. The move comes after Saudi and Qatari efforts cleared Syria’s World Bank debt, unlocking fresh international lending. #SaudiSyriaDeal #MiddleEastShift #SyriaReconstruction #BreakingNews #IsraelBlow #AlSharaa #SaudiInvestment #SyrianCivilWar #Geopolitics #DruzeCrisis #QatarSyriaDebt #MiddleEastUpdate #DamascusDeals #EnergyInvestment #SaudiDiplomacy #ArabUnity #RebuildSyria #SyriaEconomy #IsraelVsSyria #ConstructionBoom #NetanyahuSetback #HumanRightsCrisis #PostWarRecovery #WesternSanctions #SaudiSoftPower #GulfPolitics #SyriaNews #SectarianUnrest #JobCreation #SyriaFuture #RedrawingAlliances #oneindianews #oneindiaenglish #breakingnews #worldnews #englishnewslive #englishnews #latestnews #news ~HT.410~ED.194~

Houthi Attack DESTROYS British 'Magic Sea' Ship in Red Sea | Britain Dragged Into Red Sea War

This exclusive new footage provides a chilling, firsthand look inside the bulk carrier 'Magic Sea' during a devastating attack by Houthi rebels in the Red Sea. The video captures the sheer panic as alarms blare and glass shatters from the impact of the strike, forcing the crew to abandon the ship just moments before it began to sink. This incident marks a significant escalation in the ongoing Red Sea crisis, which is severely disrupting global shipping routes. The Houthi group in Yemen officially claimed responsibility for the attack, stating they utilized a combination of unmanned boats, naval missiles, and drones. According to a statement by their spokesperson, the group alleges that the 'Magic Sea' had violated their ban on ships entering Israeli ports, which they refer to as "occupied ports." They further claimed that the ship's crew had been issued multiple warnings but failed to comply, leading to the direct strike. In the aftermath of the attack, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) confirmed a successful rescue operation. All 22 crew members and the security staff onboard the vessel were safely evacuated before the ship was completely lost. This attack is the latest in a series of aggressive actions by the Houthis against international maritime traffic, raising global concerns over the security of this critical waterway and the potential for a wider conflict in the Middle East. #RedSea #HouthiAttack #BreakingNews #WorldNews #OneindiaNews #Yemen #MiddleEastCrisis #GlobalShipping #MagicSea #Israel Also Read US and Iran-Backed Houthis Commit to Escalation Following Airstrikes Targeting Yemen Rebels :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-iran-backed-houthis-escalation-airstrikes-yemen-011-4096567.html?ref=DMDesc 17 People Missing After Tourist Yacht Sinks in Red Sea Following High Waves Warning :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/tourist-yacht-sinks-red-sea-17-missing-011-3998351.html?ref=DMDesc US Navy Continues Aircraft Carrier Presence in Red Sea to Counter Houthi Threats :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-navy-extends-aircraft-carrier-deployment-red-sea-011-3838877.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.122~

Strait Of Hormuz In CHAOS: Three Ships Ablaze Near Strait Of Hormuz Amid Israel-Iran Conflict

Amid soaring Israel-Iran tensions, dramatic images on social media show three ships engulfed in flames off the Gulf of Oman near the critical Strait of Hormuz. While authenticity remains unverified, NASA’s FIRMS data also detected fires in the same zone. The area, a vital artery for global oil, has long been a flashpoint. No official Emirati response has surfaced yet. As Israel pounds Iran’s military sites, fears rise over possible retaliation through trade disruption, especially a blockade of Hormuz, which sees over 20 million barrels of oil pass daily. #IsraelIranTensions #StraitOfHormuz #GulfOfOmanFire #MiddleEastCrisis #OilTradeThreat #ShipFireGulf #HormuzBlockadeFears #FIRMSData #IranStrikeBack #IsraelIranWar #OilRouteAtRisk #GlobalOilSupply #MaritimeSecurity #TankerFirePhotos #UnverifiedImages #GeopoliticalFlashpoint #TehranVsTelAviv #HormuzCrisis #GulfMaritimeAlert #BreakingMiddleEast ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.125~
