Macron Recognizes Palestinian State, Enrages US, Israel |France Accused of Backing Hamas 'Terrorism'
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 âreckless,â while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called it âshamefulâ 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.

A mysterious new Hamas video has surfaced, sparking speculation that Abu Obaida â the masked spokesperson of the Al-Qassam Brigades â may still be alive. The release comes shortly after the IDF unveiled footage claiming to show the precision strike that killed him in Gaza. While the Israeli military insists Obaida was eliminated in the operation, Hamas has neither confirmed nor denied his death, instead dropping this cryptic video without explanation.

Seventeen U.S. Senate Democrats, led by a Jewish senator, are demanding accountability from Secretary of State Marco Rubio after a deadly Israeli airstrike in Gaza killed six journalists, including prominent Al Jazeera reporter Anas al-Sharif. Lawmakers called the strike part of Israelâs âsystematic targeting of journalists,â accusing the Israeli government of silencing media voices exposing Gazaâs devastation. In their letter, the senators urged Rubio to press Israel for transparency, citing violations of international law and warning of risks to U.S. credibility and national security. Israel has claimed al-Sharif was tied to Hamas, but has offered no compelling evidence. The senators argue that targeting journalists is unacceptable and have demanded greater media access inside Gaza. The call underscores rising political pressure in Washington over Israelâs conduct in the war and its treatment of reporters covering one of the worldâs most dangerous conflict zones.

Hours before President Zelenskyâs White House visit, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio made waves by suggesting Ukraine and Russia must consider concessions for a peace deal. His remarks come after reports that Putin demanded control of Donbas in exchange for ending the war. Zelensky, backed by Europe, has firmly rejected any territorial compromise, repeating âNo land for invaders.â While Rubio urged diplomacy, he warned peace may remain elusive, and without an agreement, the warâalready entering its fourth yearâcould bring more deaths and consequences for Russia.

In a dramatic global twist, Russia has declared full support for Palestinian statehood, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reaffirming Moscow's long-standing commitment to a two-state solution. The statement comes on the heels of French President Emmanuel Macronâs bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September â making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestineâs 1988 declaration of independence under the USSR, insists that peace in the Middle East hinges on UN Security Council resolutions and the establishment of a sovereign Palestinian state. Macronâs decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a âreward for terrorâ and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it âreckless.â Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it âhistoric.â Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition.

Israel has rejected Hamasâs latest ceasefire proposal, which included hostage releases, prisoner swaps, troop withdrawals, and the opening of border crossings. Prime Minister Netanyahu dismissed the offer as âspin,â insisting on Hamasâs disarmament and Israeli security control in Gaza. Defense Minister Katz warned that Gaza City could face the same destruction as Rafah if Hamas refuses. Meanwhile, Palestinians condemned Israeli minister Smotrichâs call to annex the West Bank, calling it illegal and a violation of international law, urging sanctions.

A senior UAE official has issued a stern warning to Israel and the Trump administration, stating that annexing the West Bank would cross a âred lineâ and jeopardize the vision of regional integration. Emirati envoy Lana Nusseibeh emphasized that such a move could endanger the Abraham Accords, dismantle prospects for a two-state solution, and destabilize relations with Arab countries. With Netanyahu preparing a ministerial consultation on annexation, the UAEâs message highlights the high stakes for peace in the region and signals a critical diplomatic challenge for both Israel and the U.S.

The Yemeni Houthis have confirmed their first military operation in the northern Red Sea, striking the Israeli oil tanker Scarlet Ray with a ballistic missile near Yanbu. Maritime security firm Dryad Global verified the hit, marking a major escalation in the conflict. Once considered a low-risk route, the northern Red Sea is now reclassified as high-risk amid expanding Houthi operations. Vowing to continue attacks until Israel ends its Gaza siege, the Houthis declared the war has entered a new phase.

The U.S. Navy has deployed advanced warships equipped with nearly 1,200 precision-guided missiles, signaling a sharp escalation in Americaâs military readiness. Defense analysts warn this unprecedented firepower marks a direct message to adversaries like China, Russia, and Iran, amid growing geopolitical flashpoints. While Washington frames the move as deterrence, critics fear it risks fueling an arms race and sparking dangerous confrontations at sea. With the Indo-Pacific and Middle East already on edge, the deployment underscores a new era of high-stakes naval warfare.
