Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a call with Pope Leo XIV following the deadly IDF strike on Gaza’s Holy Family Church, which killed three civilians. The Pope expressed deep sorrow, called for an immediate ceasefire, and urged protection of worship sites. He also warned of Gaza’s worsening humanitarian crisis. While Netanyahu’s office called the exchange “friendly,” the Vatican stressed moral responsibility. The Latin Patriarchate and global Christian groups have condemned the strike, demanding Israel halt attacks on sacred sites and civilians.

An Israeli airstrike on the Holy Family Church compound in Gaza has killed three civilians and injured several others, including children and a parish priest.

France, Italy, and the Vatican condemned the attack, demanding accountability. Pope Leo XIV expressed sorrow and urged a ceasefire. Israel has apologized and launched an investigation, stating religious sites are not intentionally targeted despite growing criticism.

A dramatic showdown erupts in Texas as 51 Democratic lawmakers flee the state, heading to Illinois to block a Republican redistricting map backed by former President Donald Trump.
The GOP-drafted map would add five Republican-leaning seats to the U.S. House, but Democrats say it's a blatant power grab that silences millions of voters. Without the two-thirds quorum needed to proceed, Governor Greg Abbott’s special session is now in chaos.
As the redistricting war intensifies, Democrats call this political exile a fight for democracy, while Republicans label it cowardice. Will the runaway lawmakers succeed—or be hunted down, fined, or even removed from office?

Chaos erupted on the streets of San Francisco on Tuesday as federal immigration agents clashed violently with protesters outside a city courthouse. The confrontation, now being called the most violent of its kind in the city this year, saw Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents using aggressive tactics against a group of approximately 20 demonstrators.
The tense situation began around 11:18 a.m. when ICE agents attempted toescort a detained man from the courthouse. Protesters quickly formed a human chain, using their bodies and bicycles to block the exit while shouting anti-ICE slogans. In response, several agents, with their faces covered, were seen deploying pepper spray, pushing protesters to the ground with batons, and yelling expletives. The situation escalated dramatically when one agent brandished a rifle to intimidate the crowd.
The most shocking moment occurred when a black SUV, reportedly waiting for the agents, sped through the crowd of protesters. Witnesses reported that a woman was thrown from the hood of the moving vehicle, which then almost ran her over a block away. This incident has sparked outrage and raises serious questions about the use of force by federal agents during public demonstrations in the United States.
