The UK and four allies have criticised Israel's decision to launch a new large-scale military operation in Gaza - warning it will "aggravate the catastrophic.. Sky News
In a major policy shift, Germany has suspended arms exports to Israel that could be used in Gaza, citing rising civilian casualties and humanitarian concerns. Chancellor Friedrich Merz emphasized Israel’s right to self-defense but said Berlin could not ignore the human toll of the conflict. The move marks a rare break from U.S. alignment and reflects mounting European discontent. As the war intensifies, Germany calls for humanitarian corridors and warns against West Bank annexation, signaling a shift in global patience with Netanyahu’s strategy.

Southeastern Greece is battling relentless wildfires, with flames threatening towns just 50 km from Athens and forcing mass evacuations. In Keratea and Palaia Fokaia, residents fled as gale-force winds drove the blaze into homes, killing one elderly man. Fire crews, backed by water-bombing aircraft, worked through the night to contain the inferno, while villages near Ancient Olympia were evacuated amid fears for the historic site. Meteorologists warn of “meltemi” winds reaching 70 km/h, fanning the fires across Attica and the Peloponnese.
The blazes have destroyed thousands of hectares of farmland, homes, and pine forests, raising alarms over long-term environmental devastation and economic loss. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis convened an emergency cabinet meeting, calling the situation “fluid and dangerous.” With memories of past fire tragedies like Mati in 2018 still raw, Greece braces for more flare-ups as the weekend’s dangerous winds close in.

Apocalyptic wildfires have engulfed Turkey’s Çanakkale province, forcing mass evacuations and halting maritime traffic through the Dardanelles Strait. Flames tore through forest roads, consuming fire trucks and threatening ancient Troy. Villages and a care home were cleared as winds intensified, with temperatures expected to worsen. The strait—a vital global shipping route—has been closed in both directions. With firefighters stretched thin and conditions deteriorating, officials warn of more wildfires ahead, as Turkey grapples with one of its worst fire emergencies in years.
