U.S President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time offering asylum to white South African refugees fleeing what he calls “genocide.” But the move has sparked outrage and raised questions about hypocrisy as Trump continues his tough stance on immigration, particularly toward Black and Hispanic migrants. As the media focuses on the controversial land expropriation in South Africa, many are now calling out the double standard in U.S. immigration policy.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has sharply rebuked the UK, France, and Canada after their joint condemnation of Israel’s military offensive in Gaza. Accusing them of “rewarding Hamas’s genocidal attack,” Netanyahu defended Israel’s war as a fight for survival and civilization. He reiterated that the war, which began after the October 7 Hamas attack, will only end with Hamas’s surrender. Backing Trump’s vision of Gaza’s future, Netanyahu vowed to continue Operation Gideon’s Chariots until Israel achieves total victory.

France, the UK, and Canada have issued a strongly-worded joint statement condemning Israel's intensified military offensive in Gaza. The three nations demand an immediate ceasefire, full humanitarian aid access, and criticize Israel’s approval of minimal food aid as “wholly inappropriate” under international law. They warn of targeted sanctions over West Bank settlement expansions and condemn inflammatory rhetoric from Israeli officials. The trio reaffirms support for a two-state solution ahead of the June 18 Palestinian statehood conference and urges Hamas to release all remaining hostages.

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to seize full control of Gaza as the IDF intensifies Operation Gideon’s Chariots, launching simultaneous ground assaults in the north and south. Over 670 Hamas targets were hit this week amid heavy bombardment. Gaza hospitals have collapsed, and the UN warns of imminent famine. While Israel allows limited food aid, global pressure mounts to ease the blockade. Netanyahu insists, “We will not give up… we must act in a way that cannot be stopped.”

Israel intensifies its military campaign in Gaza under Operation “Gideon’s Chariots,” launching simultaneous ground assaults in both the north and south. Airstrikes overnight have killed over 100 people, with Gaza’s last northern hospitals—like the Indonesian facility—now shut down, triggering a dire medical crisis. While Israel allows limited food aid to prevent mass hunger, its strategy seeks to segment Gaza and isolate Hamas fighters. As ceasefire talks resume in Qatar, Israel insists on hostage release and Hamas disarmament, while Hamas refuses to negotiate under fire, warning escalation won’t bring peace or freedom for captives. Mediators from the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt race to salvage dialogue amid deepening violence.
