More than 580 Palestinians have been killed and over 4,200 injured while standing in line for humanitarian aid in Gaza, according to the latest data from the Gaza Media Office. Eyewitness reports and Israeli media reveal shocking claims that IDF soldiers were ordered to fire on unarmed, starving civiliansâmen, women, and childrenâdesperate for food.
The UN has condemned the US-Israel airdrop system as a âdeath trapâ, calling it a catastrophic failure of humanitarian response. A new study, led by the University of London and Palestinian scholars, reveals that nearly 100,000 people have died since the start of Israelâs war on Gazaâmost from airstrikes, many from starvation and disease.
This video unpacks the systematic targeting of civilians, the crumbling infrastructure, and the global silence in the face of a growing humanitarian catastrophe. Rights groups are calling this a modern genocide. Will the world act before it's too late?

IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi has warned that Iran could resume uranium enrichment within months, despite recent U.S. strikes on its nuclear sites. Grossi emphasized that Iranâs expertise and infrastructure remain largely intact. Satellite images of Fordow show signs of possible reconstruction, contradicting Trumpâs claim that Iranâs program was âtotally obliterated.â The IAEA says damage was significant but not crippling. With Tehran cutting off cooperation with the UN watchdog, concerns are rising over Iranâs next nuclear move.

Former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter has accused IAEA chief Rafael Grossi of aiding Israelâs Mossad in assassinating Iranian nuclear scientists by leaking their identities and locations. In a June 29 interview on Iranâs Press TV, Ritter alleged that the agency under Grossi compromised Iran's scientists, directly leading to targeted killings. His claims have reignited Iranâs long-standing accusations of Western bias within the IAEA, further fueling Tehranâs decision to end cooperation with the agency. The controversy deepens tensions in the region and raises serious questions about international nuclear oversight.

Suspects in the March 2024 Crocus City Hall massacre that killed 149 people have reportedly told Russian investigators that a Ukrainian state entity ordered the attack. According to interrogation transcripts cited by Russian media, the attackers â all Tajik nationals â said the assault was executed by ISIS-K but coordinated through a handler named "Saifullo" linked to Ukraine.
The suspects were allegedly promised $13,000 each and instructed to flee to Kiev after the attack. They claimed their weapons came from Ukraine, with operational guidance originating from TĂŒrkiye and Afghanistan. Ukraine has denied any role in the incident, though it has previously admitted to sabotage inside Russian territory. The attack, which also injured over 600 people, marks one of the deadliest in Russia in recent memory. Questions persist around the true orchestrators of the massacre and whether foreign intelligence or proxy actors were involved.

The UNâs top human rights official, Volker TĂŒrk, has strongly condemned U.S. sanctions on four ICC judges as âdeeply corrosiveâ to international justice. These judges, who ruled on cases involving alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and arrest warrants against Israeli leaders, now face sanctions from the Biden administration. TĂŒrk warned that targeting international judges for executing their duties endangers the rule of law. The EU has backed the ICC, vowing to counter these sanctions and defend the courtâs independence from political pressure.

U.S. President Donald Trump has sanctioned four International Criminal Court (ICC) judges for pursuing war crimes investigations against American and Israeli troops over actions in Gaza and Afghanistan. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the ICCâs actions as illegitimate and a threat to U.S. sovereignty. Netanyahu praised the move, calling the ICC charges political. The ICC, EU, and UN strongly opposed the sanctions, warning they undermine global justice and shield war criminals from accountability.

Tensions surged near Sandy Cay on May 22 as Chinese Coast Guard vessels sideswiped and blasted Philippine research ships with water cannons. China slammed the mission as âillegal,â warning of further action, and accused the US of using the Philippines to provoke Beijing in the South China Sea. The Philippines condemned Chinaâs âaggressive interference,â reporting vessel damage and safety threats. Sandy Cay is part of the disputed Spratly Islands, also claimed by Vietnam and Taiwan. The incident adds fuel to the ongoing maritime conflict and challenges a 2016 arbitration ruling.
