EU foreign ministers approve reactivation of border mission at Rafah
While EU members Ireland and Spain are expected to make the recognition of the Palestinian State official on Tuesday, European Foreign Affairs Ministers approve the reactivation of an EU border mission at Rafah.
India has doubled down on its decision to continue purchasing discounted Russian crude oil despite U.S. President Donald Trump's remarks suggesting New Delhi may halt such imports. Indian state-owned refiners reaffirmed that sourcing oil from Russia remains a strategic, price-driven choice essential for the countryâs energy security, given its 85% crude import dependence. Officials emphasized that Russian oil is not under international sanctions and purchases comply with the G7/EU price cap mechanism, ensuring global markets remain liquid and prices stable. Sources argue that India's imports prevented oil prices from soaring above the March 2022 peak of $137 a barrel amid OPEC+ cuts. Meanwhile, reports of suspended purchases were dismissed, with officials highlighting the EUâs own high intake of Russian LNG. India insists its decisions are guided by national interest while contributing positively to global energy stability, even as Washington hints at possible penalties.

In a bold humanitarian gesture, the United Arab Emirates has dispatched its largest-ever aid vessel to Gaza, carrying a massive 7,000 tonnes of essential food, medical, and shelter supplies. This mission, named Chivalrous Knight 3, marks a significant escalation in the UAEâs relief efforts amid Gazaâs worsening humanitarian crisis.
The ship set sail toward Egyptâs El Arish Port and will route supplies through the Rafah crossing into Gaza. Emirati officials described the mission as a "gift to our people in Gaza," reinforcing their continued commitment to Palestinian civilians. The aid comes amid global scrutiny over the blockade and suffering in Gaza, and highlights growing regional involvement in humanitarian diplomacy. This massive maritime effort signals both urgency and scaleâproviding life-saving materials to a population in dire need.

Leaked CCTV footage from Rafah reveals Israeli soldiers allegedly filming themselves as they destroy an entire residential block in southern Gaza. Once home to nearly 200,000 Palestinians, the area has now been turned to rubble, as families are either killed, displaced, or starving under siege.
This disturbing visual raises urgent questions: Is this documentation or display? Defense or destruction?
As Gaza reels from bombings, starvation, and mass displacement, critics â including Israeli opposition leaders â warn that whatâs unfolding could amount to war crimes.

Outspoken Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene has condemned U.S. funding for the Ukraine war, calling it a âcomplete betrayalâ of American taxpayers. Referring to Trumpâs 2024 victory, Greene argued that voters had rejected foreign wars, yet Washington continues to finance conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. She accused Democratsâand some neocon Republicansâof pushing an âAmerica LASTâ agenda while warning that such policies will alienate younger voters permanently.
Greene even called Israelâs Gaza offensive a âgenocide,â highlighting deep fractures within Trumpâs GOP. Despite campaign promises to end the war, Trump recently approved additional military support for Kiev, including Patriot missile systems. The debate exposes growing discontent among Republican ranks about endless foreign interventions and unchecked military spending. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials praised Trumpâs support, calling it a vital deterrent against Russian advances. Greene warned that ignoring these political alarm bells could prove disastrous for U.S. unity and voter trust.

Tensions in the Middle East escalated as Hamas declared it will not disarm unless a fully sovereign Palestinian state is established with Jerusalem as its capital. This declaration came after U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff claimed Hamas showed willingness to lay down armsâan assertion Hamas quickly rejected. Israel, meanwhile, maintains disarmament as a non-negotiable precondition for any ceasefire deal.
As ceasefire negotiations stall, pressure builds from Western and Arab nations urging Hamas to give up arms. Meanwhile, a shocking video of Israeli hostage Evyatar David emaciated in captivity triggered a fresh wave of outrage. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza deepens, with UN agencies reporting hundreds killed while seeking aid. U.S. envoy Witkoff, currently in Israel, has met with hostage families and criticized partial peace plans. With over 60,000 deaths in Gaza and starvation rising, global calls intensify for an urgent resolution to end the bloodshed.
