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.

Harvard Strikes Back: Judge BLOCKS Trump’s BAN on Harvard’s Foreign Students | Govt LOST In Court?

A federal judge has temporarily blocked President Trump’s ban on Harvard’s international students, siding with the university's claims of illegal retaliation and violation of due process. Judge Allison Burroughs issued a restraining order, arguing the move could Strip Harvard of its global identity. The order targeted only Harvard, with the White House accusing it of links to foreign adversaries. As tensions rise, the courtroom becomes the battleground in a growing fight over academic freedom and immigration policy in post-Trump America. #HarvardVsTrump #Harvard #InternationalStudents #VisaBan #StudentRights #TrumpAdministration #CourtRuling #ImmigrationPolicy #AcademicFreedom #JudgeBurroughs #HigherEd #LegalBattle #BreakingNews #EducationPolicy #FederalCourt #USPolitics #StudentVisas #GlobalEducation #RetaliationClaims #TrumpVsHarvard #UniversityFreedom #HarvardJustice #DueProcess #TrumpBanBlocked #LegalRelief #JudicialOrder #CourtShowdown #HarvardWins #EducationRights #PoliticalBacklash ~ED.346~HT.408~
