Freed British-Israeli hostage says Starmer not 'on right side of history' over Palestine recognition
Wednesday, 30 July 2025 () A British-Israeli woman who was held hostage by Hamas for more than a year has said Sir Keir Starmer is "not standing on the right side of history" after his conditional pledge to recognise Palestine as a state.
Europe’s powerful ‘E3’—Germany, France, and the UK—are signaling a major diplomatic rift with the U.S. and Israel over the Gaza crisis. After criticizing Israel’s blockade of aid and civilian deaths, France has recognized Palestine, while the UK has pledged recognition without a timeline....
Priti Patel has claimed the prime minister was "under enormous political pressure" from his backbenchers to recognise Palestine as a free state. The shadow foreign secretary added that Keir Starmer's decision to recognise Palestinian statehood was "ill-timed". Report by Kennedyl.

In a seismic shift in foreign policy, Canada has announced it will formally recognise the State of Palestine at the 80th UN General Assembly session in September 2025. Prime Minister Mark Carney declared the move essential to preserve hopes of a two-state solution—calling current efforts "eroded before our eyes." The decision follows similar recognitions by France and the UK, creating a powerful bloc pushing for Palestinian statehood. However, Carney made the recognition conditional—insisting on PA reforms, 2026 elections excluding Hamas, and full demilitarisation. Israel has blasted the decision, calling it a "distorted campaign of international pressure" and warning it legitimises Hamas's October 7 atrocities. Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas hailed the move as “historic.” The tension between international recognition and Israeli resistance could reshape global diplomacy on the conflict.

In a dramatic twist that could shake North American diplomacy, U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fiery warning at Canada following its unexpected endorsement of Palestinian statehood. Trump took to Truth Social to express his outrage, stating, “That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh’ Canada!!!” The statement comes amid ongoing discussions about trade relations between the two nations.
Canada’s stance on Palestine appears to have infuriated Trump, who sees this as a betrayal of U.S. interests and a roadblock to future trade negotiations. The move has sparked intense reactions across the political spectrum, with analysts now speculating about a potential freeze in economic ties. Trump's outburst raises concerns of diplomatic fallout and shifts the spotlight to Canada's role in the Middle East peace debate. Could this signal a bigger rift between traditional allies? The world is watching.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) released footage allegedly showing Hamas fighters taking control of aid containers in Gaza. The IDF accuses Hamas of looting humanitarian supplies meant for civilians. Hamas denies the allegation, claiming its personnel ensure secure aid distribution. The video follows a New York Times report where Israeli officials admitted no proof exists of systematic aid theft. With global pressure mounting—from the U.S. to Europe—the war of narratives over Gaza’s humanitarian crisis continues to intensify.
