Davey: Super-injunction was a cover-up

Sir Ed Davey accused Tories of letting down Afghans who supported British forces and protecting its ministers. It comes as a super-injunction blocking reporting about the “horrific” leak of data was lifted. The Ministry of Defence only became aware of the breach when excerpts from the dataset were posted anonymously on a Facebook group in August 2023, and a super-injunction was granted at the High Court in an attempt to prevent the Taliban from finding out about the leak.

Israel In Turmoil As Anti-Govt Fury Erupts Over Gaza Bombings, Hostages | Netanyahu To Flee? [Video]

Israel In Turmoil As Anti-Govt Fury Erupts Over Gaza Bombings, Hostages | Netanyahu To Flee?

Tel Aviv witnessed emotional and politically charged protests as the war in Gaza and the unresolved hostage crisis continue to haunt Israel. On one end of the city’s beachside, left-wing Israeli activists staged a solemn vigil, holding up photos of Palestinian children killed during the months-long bombardment of Gaza. The haunting memorial served as a reminder of the devastating toll on civilians. Simultaneously, hundreds gathered outside the Defence Ministry headquarters demanding swift government action for the release of hostages still held captive by Palestinian militants since the Hamas-led October 7 attacks. The dual protests, though emotionally and ideologically different, reflect a nation torn between grief, anger, and the urgent desire for closure. As frustration grows, both against Hamas and within Israeli leadership, the demonstrations reveal deep cracks in public sentiment over how the Gaza war has been waged — and what it’s left behind. #TelAvivProtests #GazaWar #HostageCrisis #IsraelPalestine #October7Attack #WarToll #PalestinianChildren #HamasHostages #IsraeliProtest #GazaConflict #LeftWingActivism #DefenceMinistryProtest #IsraelUnrest #HostagesInGaza #GazaCasualties #ProtestForPeace #GazaWarDeaths #VigilForChildren #IsraelCracks #MiddleEastTensions ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.102~

Thai-Cambodia War Latest: Thailand Frees ‘Only 2 Soldiers’,18 Still Held As Border Standoff EXPLODES

Tensions are rising between Thailand and Cambodia after Phnom Penh confirmed that only 2 of the 20 Cambodian soldiers captured at the O'Smach border checkpoint have been released by Thai forces. One soldier has reportedly returned dead, leaving 18 still under Thai control. The Cambodian Ministry of Defense has called for the immediate return of all detained soldiers, invoking international humanitarian law and vowing to avoid another armed escalation. “We will not allow war to break out again,” the Cambodian Defense Ministry insisted in a bold statement, but also issued a strong appeal to Bangkok to return not just the 18 remaining soldiers, but also others reportedly held under Thai custody. The clash that led to these captures has sparked fears of renewed tensions in the already sensitive border region. Diplomatic efforts are now being urged at the highest level to prevent a repeat of history. #Cambodia #Thailand #BorderClash #SoldierStandoff #Osmach #InternationalLaw #CambodianSoldiers #ThaiMilitary #MilitaryTensions #DefenseMinistry #BreakingNews #ConflictZone #SEAsiaNews #BorderTensions #CapturedSoldiers #RepatriationDemand #DeadSoldier #PrayForPeace #ThaiCambodiaCrisis #WarThreat ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.102~
