Nigeria Quds Day Protest: Pro-Palestinian Protesters vs Police in Abuja - Dozens Killed, Open Fire
In a violent crackdown during International Quds Day, Nigerian security forces opened fire on pro-Palestinian protesters in Abuja, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens more.
Video footage from the scene shows armed forces securing the perimeter as demonstrators flee, with some being dragged lifeless into trucks by soldiers.
This violent suppression follows a pattern of force used against Quds Day demonstrators in previous years, sparking outrage and concern from human rights organizations.
The Nigerian government had previously warned of potential unrest, citing concerns over the protesters' demands for justice in support of Palestine.
This tragic event has left many questioning the Nigerian government's response to peaceful demonstrations and the growing tension surrounding global solidarity for Palestine.

At least 175 people have died and over 3,000 displaced after catastrophic floods submerged Mokwa, a major market town in Nigeria's Niger State. Triggered by predawn rains, the floods affected 500 households, leaving many rooftops submerged and people waist-deep in water. President Bola Tinubu has activated emergency response operations, vowing no victim will be abandoned. As climate change worsens Nigeriaās weather extremes, devastated residents mourn their dead and lost harvests. The town, a crucial agricultural hub, is now struggling to cope with trauma, loss, and rising humanitarian needs.

French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that France will officially recognize the State of Palestine in September, sparking fierce backlash from both Israel and the United States. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the move as āreckless,ā while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called it āshamefulā and accused France of rewarding terrorism.
As Macron defends the decision as a step toward peace and an end to the Gaza war, critics argue it signals growing Western support for Palestine and Hamas. Is France challenging U.S.-Israeli dominance in Middle East policy? And will this shift trigger more European nations to follow?
The announcement comes amid international outrage over Israel's military campaign in Gaza and a growing death toll. With nearly three-quarters of UN members now backing Palestinian statehood, global pressure on Israel continues to mount.

In a powerful show of solidarity, thousands of Yemenis flooded the streets of Sa'ada yet again in their weekly pro-Palestine march. Chanting slogans against Israel and waving Palestinian flags, the protesters sent a defiant message of unwavering support to the people of Gaza, who continue to endure relentless Israeli bombardments. The march was not just symbolicāit was loud, emotionally charged, and deeply rooted in Yemen's growing resistance culture.
With children, elders, and women all participating, the demonstration highlighted the collective pain and outrage felt in Yemen over the siege of Gaza. Many carried posters of Palestinian martyrs and called for international action. As the humanitarian crisis in Gaza worsens, Yemenās streets have become a weekly battleground of voices demanding justice. Sa'ada's march is yet another signal that the Arab street is far from silent.

Tensions flare as Hamas rejects U.S. accusations that it derailed ceasefire negotiations, insisting it submitted a final response after wide consultations.

The UN warns that Palestinians in Gaza are āwalking corpsesā as severe food blockades by Israel push the humanitarian crisis to the brink of collapse. With aid shipments stalled and starvation deaths rising, the situation is rapidly worsening. Despite ceasefire talks and international pressure, the blockade continues to suffocate the civilian population. This is a man-made catastrophe demanding urgent action.
