Irish PM Simon Harris says Israel's decision to shutter Dublin embassy 'regrettable'
Israel announced on Sunday it would shut its mission in the Irish capital because of what Israel's Foreign Minister called 'extreme anti-Israel policies.'
Iranâs top security chief, Ali Larijani, has declared that meaningful talks with the West are only possible if Washington and Europe drop their threats of war. In a fiery interview, Larijani said Iran remains committed to diplomacy, but warned that intimidation, sanctions, and military strikes cannot force Tehran into submission. He slammed recent U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iranian sites as violations of international law and accused Europe of acting as Washingtonâs p@wn by reviving the âsnapbackâ sanctions mechanism. Larijani did not rule out Iranâs possible exit from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), saying the pact has âbrought us no benefit.â He made clear that strength â not empty promises â is what secures progress for Iran. His remarks underline Tehranâs hardened stance: real negotiations can only begin when the West accepts that war and pressure are doomed to fail.

A new poll shows Benjamin Netanyahuâs government teetering on the edge as 62% of Israelis say the leadership has lost the publicâs confidence. The results come amid intensifying protests across Tel Aviv, where families of hostages and ordinary citizens are demanding an immediate deal with Hamas to bring their loved ones home. While 26% of Israelis want an urgent partial deal to save hostages in deteriorating condition, 46% back a full ceasefire agreement that would end the war in Gaza altogether. Only 18% believe the fighting should continue, regardless of the hostagesâ fate. With public rage spilling into the streets and international pressure mounting, Netanyahu faces the most precarious moment of his political career. The poll suggests a nation deeply divided, yet united in one belief: the prime ministerâs time may be running out.

In a stunning Oval Office press conference, U.S. President Donald Trump suggested that fewer than 20 of the remaining hostages in Gaza are still alive â sparking outrage and despair from families demanding answers. Trump credited himself with previous hostage releases but warned that âa couple of them are not around any longer,â contradicting Israelâs official figures. Israel insists that 50 hostages remain in Gaza, with 20 alive, 2 in grave danger, and 28 confirmed dead. Families accused the government of keeping them in the dark while Trumpâs comments intensified pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu, who is preparing to launch a massive Gaza City offensive under the name âOperation Iron Fist.â With one million Palestinians ordered to evacuate, negotiators scramble to reach a ceasefire-hostage deal before the invasion begins. The question now: how many hostages remain alive â and can they be saved in time?

Israel is now battling a dangerous two-front war as Yemeni Houthis join Hamas in striking critical targets. Yemenâs Armed Forces announced they fired a âPalestine-2â hypersonic ballistic missile and armed drones past Israeli interception systems, hitting Ben Gurion Airport, a Tel Aviv military site, and Ashkelon. The attack plunged Ben Gurion into chaos, suspending operations and forcing thousands into shelters. Since October 2023, the Houthis have expanded their campaign of solidarity with Hamas, hitting Israeli ships in the Red Sea and targeting airports in their aerial blockade. With 62,300 Palestinians already killed in Gaza, the Houthis vow to continue their strikes until the war and siege end. Israel has retaliated with airstrikes in Yemen, but the rebels show no signs of backing down. The Gaza war is no longer just in GazaâIsrael is now under fire from multiple fronts.

Several Israelis were injured after a major Houthi missile strike targeted central Israel, including Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Air raid sirens blared across the region as Israelâs Iron Dome failed to intercept all projectiles, allowing missile fragments to hit residential and strategic areas. Ben Gurion Airport operations were disrupted, and chaos spread across major cities. The Houthi military, led by spokesperson Yahya Saree, claimed responsibility for the attack, describing it as a âsuccessful strike against Israeli targets.â Dramatic videos show explosions, debris, and civilians rushing to shelters, highlighting serious vulnerabilities in Israelâs air defense systems.
