Macron Recognizes Palestinian State, Enrages US, Israel |France Accused of Backing Hamas 'Terrorism'

French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will officially recognize the State of Palestine in September, sparking fierce backlash from both Israel and the United States. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the move as “reckless,” while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called it “shameful” and accused France of rewarding terrorism. As Macron defends the decision as a step toward peace and an end to the Gaza war, critics argue it signals growing Western support for Palestine and Hamas. Is France challenging U.S.-Israeli dominance in Middle East policy? And will this shift trigger more European nations to follow? The announcement comes amid international outrage over Israel's military campaign in Gaza and a growing death toll. With nearly three-quarters of UN members now backing Palestinian statehood, global pressure on Israel continues to mount. #Macron #FrancePalestine #IsraelPalestine #GazaWar #Hamas #MiddleEastConflict #UNRecognition #TwoStateSolution #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #Netanyahu #USIsrael #PalestineStatehood #EmmanuelMacron ~HT.318~PR.274~ED.346~GR.125~

“Enrichment Will Continue” Iran’s Big THREAT To West | Iran BANS IAEA From Entering Nuclear Sites [Video]

“Enrichment Will Continue” Iran’s Big THREAT To West | Iran BANS IAEA From Entering Nuclear Sites

Iran has reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to continuing uranium enrichment as talks with European powers loom in Istanbul on July 25. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi declared that despite the recent US and Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the nation’s atomic program remains a symbol of "national pride" and non‑negotiable sovereignty. Simultaneously, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed acceptance of a technical delegation from the IAEA in the coming weeks to discuss future cooperation modalities—but clarified they will not inspect nuclear sites or facilities. European leaders from the UK, France, and Germany are set to press for an extension or activation of the JCPOA’s "snapback" sanctions mechanism unless Iran makes verifiable concessions, including limiting enriched uranium stockpiles and resuming full cooperation with inspectors. Tehran insists that any renewed US engagement must begin with rebuilding trust and rejecting military covert agendas #IranNuclear #UraniumEnrichment #IAEA #EuropeTalks #IstanbulSummit #EuropeIran #Sanctions #Snapback #Diplomacy #MiddleEast #NuclearRights #IranDefiance #Araghchi #Gharibabadi #NationalPride #NPT #WesternPressure #PeacefulNuclear #RegionalSecurity #InFocus ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.102~

Yemen’s MASSIVE Show Of Protest Against ‘Zionists’ | Sa’ada Turn Into Sea Of Palestinian Flags

In a powerful show of solidarity, thousands of Yemenis flooded the streets of Sa'ada yet again in their weekly pro-Palestine march. Chanting slogans against Israel and waving Palestinian flags, the protesters sent a defiant message of unwavering support to the people of Gaza, who continue to endure relentless Israeli bombardments. The march was not just symbolic—it was loud, emotionally charged, and deeply rooted in Yemen's growing resistance culture. With children, elders, and women all participating, the demonstration highlighted the collective pain and outrage felt in Yemen over the siege of Gaza. Many carried posters of Palestinian martyrs and called for international action. As the humanitarian crisis in Gaza worsens, Yemen’s streets have become a weekly battleground of voices demanding justice.

A British doctor returning from Gaza says children are being deliberately targeted with gunshots in specific patterns - head wounds one day, chest or abdomen the next. Professor Nick Maynard, who worked with local medics, said that it is "inconceivable" that the injuries witnessed by himself could be "anything other than direct targeting of these children."

Hamas Winning Gaza: 5 IDF Soldiers Chose To Die Against Al-Qassam | Netanyahu Under Fire [Video]

Hamas Winning Gaza: 5 IDF Soldiers Chose To Die Against Al-Qassam | Netanyahu Under Fire

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are witnessing a disturbing surge in suicides, with five soldiers taking their own lives in just two weeks. This includes a 19-year-old Norwegian immigrant and a Golani Brigade serviceman, both victims of psychological trauma tied to Israel’s prolonged war in Gaza and its broader military campaigns across seven active fronts. In 2024 alone, over 20 IDF suicides have been confirmed, primarily among active-duty reservists recently returned from intense combat. Army officials blame post-traumatic stress and long deployments for the spike. Opposition leaders are calling it a silent crisis, with thousands of soldiers withdrawing from combat roles due to mental breakdowns. Meanwhile, official numbers may underreport the true toll, as additional non-combat veterans’ deaths remain uncounted. With Israel’s military stretched thin across Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, and the West Bank, the cost is not only strategic—but deeply human. #Israel #IDF #GazaWar #SuicideCrisis #CombatTrauma #PTSD #MiddleEastConflict #IsraelNews #SoldierSuicides #ReservistCrisis #MentalHealth #WarOnSevenFronts #Gaza #HamasAttack #WarCasualties #TraumaOfWar #BreakingNews #IsraelPalestine #MilitaryMentalHealth #IDFSuicides ~ED.420~GR.125~HT.96~

Houthi Missile Attack on Israeli Cities Caught on Camera—IDF Intercepts in Air | Sirens Wail Across!

On July 10, 2025, a missile launched from Yemen by Iran-backed Houthi rebels was intercepted by Israel’s air defense systems. Sirens blared across Jerusalem, central Israel, and parts of the West Bank as civilians rushed to shelters in panic. The IDF confirmed the interception and has since carried out retaliatory airstrikes on Houthi launch sites. This strike is part of a growing wave of regional escalation, with missile threats now emerging from Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen. Houthis claim the attack was in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, where over 57,000 have reportedly been killed since the Israeli military campaign began in late 2023.

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~
