French President Emmanuel Macron arrived in Tel Aviv on Tuesday, joining a list of world leaders to visit the war-torn nation since the October 7 Hamas attack.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has launched a scathing attack on French President Emmanuel Macron and German opposition leader Friedrich Merz, accusing them of attempting to revive Europe's imperialist past. Speaking at a diplomatic event, Lavrov warned that Western leaders were reverting to their âformer instinctsâ of conquest and domination, drawing chilling comparisons between todayâs political climate and Nazi-era atrocities.
He further stated that âGerman and Ukrainian Nazis are united by their attitudes toward those they want to enslave,â claiming that just as some âburned Jews,â others now âburn Russians.â Lavrovâs remarks come amid intensifying tensions between Moscow and the West over the war in Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing European militarization.
The inflammatory comments are expected to draw condemnation from European capitals but are in line with Russiaâs narrative of positioning itself as a bulwark against Western hegemony and what it calls modern-day fascism.

During the NATO summit, Turkish President ErdoÄan and French President Macron shared another tense and awkward moment. When Macron stood in front of the Turkish flag, ErdoÄan subtly but firmly pulled him to his right sideâcausing visible discomfort. This follows a previous viral incident in Tirana where ErdoÄan grabbed Macronâs finger during a handshake. Netizens are calling it a quiet power move from ErdoÄan, adding to Macronâs recent streak of bizarre public momentsâincluding a face-shove from his wife in Vietnam. Their uneasy diplomacy continues to stir global curiosity.

French President Emmanuel Macron has publicly condemned U.S. airstrikes on Iranâs nuclear sites, saying they violate international law and undermine years of nuclear diplomacy. Macron stressed that while France opposes Iranâs nuclear ambitions, regime change must come from withinânot by force. He also denounced the Israeli strike on Evin Prison, which endangered foreign nationals, including two French citizens. His rebuke signals a growing rift with Donald Trump, warning that military escalation could destabilize the region irreversibly.

A chilling new IDF investigation confirms what many fearedâIsraeli troops abandoned civilians on Zikim Beach as Hamas launched a deadly attack on October 7. Seventeen Israelis were killed after Hamas fighters landed via speedboats, with Golani Brigade troops failing to engage. The probe cites ethical and professional failures, exposing a 40-hour communication breakdown between forces. Only one navy patrol boat resisted. Community defense squads fought back alone. As shocking images and reports emerge, Israel faces painful questions about its military preparedness and the price civilians paid for that failure.

Israelâs war with Iran has pushed its defense systems to the brink, with the country reportedly running low on Arrow interceptors â a critical component of its missile shield. According to Israeli media outlet Ynetnews, Israel may only have 10â12 days of Arrow missile stock left amid relentless Iranian missile barrages. With each interceptor costing $2â3.5 million and nightly operations burning through $285 million, Israelâs financial reserves are depleting fast. A staggering $36 billion budget deficit and an $85 billion total war cost since October 2023 have raised alarm across defense circles. The country is now reportedly prioritizing intercepts for urban centers, allowing some missiles to land in open areas. While still operational offensively, analysts warn that without urgent U.S. resupply, Israelâs air defense may buckle under sustained pressure â a vulnerability adversaries may exploit. Meanwhile, Israeli officials remain tight-lipped, refusing to confirm outright financial collapse.

In blatant defiance of a ceasefire agreement, Israeli drone strikes on Saturday killed at least two people and wounded several others in southern Lebanon. A drone strike in Mahrouna targeted a motorcycle, killing one and injuring two bystanders in a passing car. Hours earlier, another Israeli UAV strike hit a vehicle in Kounine, killing a Hezbollah resistance fighter, identified as Hassan Mohammad Jumaa.
These attacks mark yet another violation of the extended truce that began on November 27 and was supposed to hold past February 18. Despite its expiration, Lebanon had hoped for stability, but Israelâs continued occupation of strategic southern areas and recurring strikes have reignited regional tensions. Beirut has condemned the aggression and vowed to take âall necessary measuresâ to end Israelâs unlawful military presence. The international community remains silent as Tel Aviv pushes the boundaries of legality and human rights with impunity.

Israel estimates $3 billion in economic damage from its 12-day war with Iran, calling it the most extensive destruction in its history. The figure excludes military costs, which could push the total to $12 billion, according to Finance Minister Smotrich. The war disrupted daily life, destroyed key infrastructure, and shuttered businesses. While the Bank of Israel still forecasts 3.5% growth this year, experts warn the conflict's aftermath could slow recovery. A ceasefire brokered by U.S. President Trump ended the fighting after nearly two weeks of missile attacks.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit the White House on July 7 to meet U.S. President Donald Trump amid escalating efforts to end the 20-month-long Gaza war. The meeting will focus on securing a ceasefire, releasing hostages held for nearly two years, and addressing regional tensions with Iran following a recent U.S.-brokered halt to their 12-day air war. Israel is also pushing the U.S. to pressure Qatar to negotiate concessions from Hamas. This marks Netanyahuâs third meeting with Trump since January 2025. #Netanyahu #Trump #WhiteHouseMeeting #GazaWar #MiddleEastPeace #HostageCrisis #Israel #Hamas #IranTensions #Ceasefire #Qatar #USForeignPolicy #MideastConflict #Diplomacy #PeaceTalks #TrumpNetanyahuMeeting #GazaCeasefire #MideastDiplomacy #HostageNegotiations #USIsraelRelations #MiddleEastCrisis #IranIsraelConflict #QatarMediation #PeaceNegotiations #ConflictResolution #WarAndPeace

Israel has launched a wave of air strikes across Gaza, with northern Gaza City now a primary target following evacuation warnings from the Israeli military. At least 80 Palestinians have been killed since dawn, with dozens more wounded. Among the attacks was a strike on Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir el-Balah, raising fears of an impending and intensified ground offensive.

At least 34 Palestinians were killed as Israeli airstrikes ravaged Gaza late Friday into Saturday, according to health officials. Twelve of the dead were sheltering at the Palestine Stadium in Gaza City, with additional casualties reported in residential apartments and tents in Muwasi.
The Gaza Health Ministry says the death toll from the war now exceeds 56,000 â more than half of them women and children. Amid the carnage, Donald Trump told reporters a Gaza ceasefire could arrive âwithin a week,â raising hopes as Israeli minister Ron Dermer prepares to visit Washington for talks. However, ceasefire conditions remain deadlocked, with Hamas willing to release hostages in exchange for ending the war â an offer Netanyahu refuses unless Hamas is disarmed and exiled.
Meanwhile, UN aid convoys are being looted as Palestinians face starvation. Israel allowed only limited food supplies into Gaza after blocking aid for over two months.

Hamas is struggling to survive in Gaza amid internal rebellions by local clans and relentless Israeli military pressure. Weakened by a loss of commanders and much of its tunnel network, the group faces growing uncertainty over continued Iranian support after key Iranian figures were targeted by Israel. With Israel backing rival tribes, Hamas fighters operate autonomously but face growing challenges maintaining control. A ceasefire is urgently needed for Hamas to regroup and suppress rogue elements. The situation exposes deep fractures within Gaza and raises questions about Hamasâs future amid shifting regional dynamics.
