India on Thursday reaffirmed its long-standing position on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict following the recent recognition of Palestine by Ireland, Norway, and Spain. Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal highlighted India's historical support for Palestinian statehood and a two-state solution. When asked about the coordinated decision by Spain, Ireland, and Norway to formally recognise Palestine, Jaiswal, at a weekly press briefing, said, “As you are aware, India was one of the first countries to recognise the state of Palestine in the late 1980s, and we have long supported a two-state solution which entails the establishment of a sovereign, viable, and independent state of Palestine within recognised and mutually agreed borders, living side by side with Israel in peace.”

capital of both Israel and Palestine.

of a two-state solution alive at
a time when others are trying
to sadly bomb it into oblivion, Simon Harris, Prime Minister of Ireland, via BBC.

UN Nuclear Watchdog , Clashes With Iran for Failing , to Cooperate With Inspectors.
'The Guardian' reports that the West may be teetering on the edge of a renewed confrontation with Tehran over Iran's nuclear program.
The news comes after the United Nations' nuclear watchdog voted to censure Iran for repeatedly failing to cooperate with U.N. inspectors. .
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
vote came after the United States dropped its
objection to the censure, joining European nations.
EU nations had urged the Biden administration to alter
its stance on the matter, claiming that the integrity
of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty was in jeopardy. .
The U.S. has since called for a long-term strategy to be
developed to deal with Iran's nuclear program, stressing
that the terms of the original 2015 deal expire next year.
The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action
(JCPoA) originally saw Western economic
sanctions lifted in exchange for strong
controls over Iran's nuclear program.
However, 'The Guardian' reports that Tehran has
since gradually restricted access for U.N. inspectors,
while also vastly boosting its stock of enriched uranium. .

In a recent address to reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov referred to the United States as an “enemy,” signalling a potential hardening of Moscow's rhetoric. While it remains uncertain if this language reflects an official change in policy, Peskov emphasised that only President Vladimir Putin can make such determinations. The Kremlin spokesman's comments were partly in response to Washington's refusal to allow former US Marine, UN weapons inspector, and RT contributor Scott Ritter to travel to St. Petersburg. Peskov described this as “the latest manifestation of the rabid campaign to prevent US citizens from interacting with the Russian Federation.” He suggested that such a refusal would only be “understandable” if it were related to Ritter's former intelligence status. “We are now an enemy country for them – much like they are for us” Peskov stated, noting that travel restrictions on former intelligence officers to hostile countries are common worldwide.

Israel targeted a Gaza school, claiming it contained Hamas fighters, killing 27 civilians seeking shelter, which Hamas denied. Hamas leader Haniyeh rejected the U.S. ceasefire proposal, demanding a permanent Israeli withdrawal. Despite U.S. efforts, truce attempts failed as Hamas insists on a lasting deal while Israel wants only temporary pauses until defeating Hamas. The eight-month war erupted after a Hamas attack killed 1,200 Israelis.
