The humanitarian crisis along the Thai-Cambodia border has reached a grim new chapter as over 170,000 civilians flee escalating violence. In a shocking image of desperation, displaced Cambodians were seen fighting over a single boiled egg at a refugee shelter. As Thai artillery shells rain down near disputed temples like Ta Moan Thom and Ta Krabei, thousands of families are left with no food, no shelter, and no certainty.
Cambodian authorities claim to have regained territory, though independent verification is lacking. Hospitals are overwhelmed, soldiers lie untreated, and rural civilians are risking their lives to tend to livestock or recover belongings. Many now shelter in school buildings and makeshift camps, sharing dwindling rice rations. More than 30 people have been confirmed killed, most of them civilians. The echoes of war have not only shaken temples—they’ve shattered livelihoods across an 800km-long frontier that refuses to find peace.

The Thailand-Cambodia border has erupted into deadly violence, with over 130,000 civilians displaced and at least 16 killed as military clashes intensify near the ancient temple cluster of Preah Vihear and Ta Muen Thom. The historic dispute—rooted in colonial-era maps and a 1962 ICJ ruling—has turned the Emerald Triangle into a modern warzone. With F-16s deployed and artillery pounding civilian areas, both nations refuse to de-escalate, risking a broader Southeast Asian war amid rising nationalist fervor and global concern.

Trump’s decision to withdraw the U.S. from UNESCO has sparked backlash, with China accusing Washington of abandoning its global responsibilities. Beijing has pledged continued support for UNESCO and multilateralism, subtly signaling its intent to expand influence within UN agencies. Critics warn this move may allow China to dominate international institutions as the U.S. retreats from global leadership. The Trump administration cited “woke” agendas and bias as reasons, reigniting fears of a broader U.S. disengagement from key international bodies.

In a bold move, President Donald Trump has once again pulled the United States out of UNESCO, citing the agency’s “woke” initiatives, anti-Israel bias, and growing pro-China influence. The White House confirmed that a review of U.S. participation found UNESCO’s policies on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) to be inconsistent with American values. Trump’s decision has reignited debate on America’s role in global institutions, with critics warning of a leadership vacuum that could be filled by rivals like China.

U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fiery attack on Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), calling her “Low (Very!!!) I.Q.” and challenging her to take a cognitive exam. In a scathing Truth Social post, Trump compared Crockett to members of the progressive “AOC Plus Three” squad and claimed she was “only slightly dumber.”
He boasted about “acing” his own test during a recent physical at a military hospital, alleging Democrats would “fail” in “a spectacular show of stupidity and incompetence.” Crockett, a vocal Trump critic, recently called him a “piece of s---” during a public event, drawing national headlines. The feud comes as Texas Republicans push to redraw congressional districts in their favor.

Israel’s Gaza military operations are triggering a growing diplomatic backlash, with Australia and New Zealand signaling plans to formally recognize a Palestinian state at the UN this September. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the move aligns with global momentum for a two-state solution, joined by more than 15 nations including France, the UK, and Canada. Albanese and New Zealand’s Foreign Minister Winston Peters have also criticized Israel’s defiance of international law, warning that Gaza’s situation has reached catastrophic levels.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to announce a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood at the September UN General Assembly, outlining borders and constitutional principles until a full constitution is passed. France, the UK, and other nations signal possible recognition, with President Macron pledging support. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has condemned the plan, urging Netanyahu to dismantle the PA. The move could mark a turning point in Palestine’s international recognition strategy, but risks sparking intense political backlash.

Israeli forces launched multiple ground incursions into Syria’s southwestern Quneitra province, setting up checkpoints, searching residents, and deploying tanks before withdrawing hours later. According to Syrian state media, IDF convoys entered several towns, breaching the 1974 ceasefire agreement that established a buffer zone near the occupied Golan Heights. Damascus and its allies accuse Israel of exploiting Syria’s instability for territorial gains. The United Nations has condemned repeated Israeli violations, warning they risk escalating regional tensions and destabilizing the volatile Syria–Israel border.

President Donald Trump has nominated State Department spokesperson and longtime Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce as the next U.S. deputy representative to the United Nations. Bruce, a fierce defender of Trump’s “America First” policies, has served as State Department spokesperson since his inauguration in January. Known for defending the administration’s tough stances on immigration, Russia’s war in Ukraine, and Israel’s Gaza offensive, Bruce is expected to bring combative rhetoric to the UN stage.
Her appointment will require Senate confirmation, where Republicans hold a majority. Trump praised her “fantastic job” at State, while Bruce called the role an honor and vowed to continue advancing U.S. priorities abroad. She will serve under Mike Waltz, Trump’s pick for UN envoy, whose confirmation is pending. The move signals Trump’s push for loyalist voices in high-profile diplomatic posts at a time of intense geopolitical tensions.

Six Lebanese soldiers were killed on Saturday in a powerful explosion at a Hezbollah weapons depot in Wadi Zibqin, near the Israeli border. The Lebanese army said troops were dismantling munitions from the Iran-backed group’s facility when the blast occurred. The tragedy comes just days after Beirut announced a plan to disarm Hezbollah by year’s end under heavy U.S. pressure, a move strongly opposed by both Hezbollah and Iran.
UN peacekeepers recently uncovered fortified tunnels and large weapons caches in the same area. The incident underscores the volatile climate in southern Lebanon despite last year’s ceasefire with Israel, which mandated that only Lebanese state forces hold arms. Israeli strikes on Hezbollah targets have continued, further inflaming tensions. Investigations are underway into the cause of the deadly blast as leaders mourn the fallen soldiers.

In a chilling accusation, the Director of Al-Shifa Hospital claims that Israel is preparing a major massacre in Gaza and has begun by targeting journalists to silence the truth. Al Jazeera reporters Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qraiqea, along with three cameramen, were killed in a strike near the hospital. Al Jazeera has called it a "targeted assassination" and a direct attack on press freedom. The IDF claims the journalists were affiliated with Hamas but has provided no credible evidence. With international outrage growing and journalists under fire, is this the beginning of a blackout before a bloodbath?
