Inside a peaceful Parisian park lies a powerful story of faith, exile, and identity. Every year, Tibetans gather at the Pagoda of Vincennes for the Sakya Monlam prayer—thousands of kilometers from their homeland. As tensions rise with China over the Dalai Lama’s successor, refugees like Tenzing and Lobsang share their fears, hopes, and ties to India—whom they call their “second homeland.” This is more than a spiritual gathering—it's a silent resistance for a forgotten people.

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.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is urgently rallying European leaders ahead of Donald Trump’s high-stakes meeting with Vladimir Putin. Speaking with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Zelensky warned of “the danger of Russia’s plan” to force Ukraine into discussing the “impossible” — territorial exchanges that would favor Moscow’s future war ambitions.
While Trump is expected to sit down with Putin soon, Zelensky is pushing for maximum coordination with the UK, US, EU, and other allies to secure a “truly lasting peace” and avoid any deal that simply reconfigures the conflict. He also emphasized Ukraine’s progress toward EU membership, warning that Russia has not shifted its stance on ending the war and continues to fuel the fighting.

A devastating wildfire is raging through southern France’s Aude department, leaving one woman dead, nine people—including firefighters—injured, and entire communities in peril. The blaze has already consumed up to 12,000 hectares—an area larger than Paris—damaging or destroying 25 homes. Hundreds of firefighters are engaged in a relentless battle, backed by water-dropping aircraft, as strong winds, scorching heat, and bone-dry vegetation fuel the inferno. Prime Minister François Bayrou is due to visit the scene, while President Macron has mobilized all national resources, urging utmost caution.
Officials warn the fire is far from contained and will require days of sustained effort to control. Evacuations are underway, roads are closed, and smoke-choked airdays linger over the region. As France grapples with yet another brutal blaze during its drought-stricken summer, the human, environmental, and economic stakes continue to rise—in what experts say is just the beginning of a catastrophic fire season.

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.

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to take “immediate” steps to topple the Palestinian Authority (PA). In a fiery statement, Ben Gvir said this was the only suitable response to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas’s reported plan to unilaterally declare a Palestinian state during the UN General Assembly in September. He labeled Abbas a “terrorist” and the PA a “terror authority,” demanding its dismantling without delay.
His comments follow reports from Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed that Abbas is preparing a bold diplomatic move as several nations prepare to recognize Palestinian statehood during the UN gathering in New York. The push comes amid escalating tensions in the region, as far-right Israeli leaders push for aggressive measures against Palestinian political leadership. Netanyahu has yet to respond publicly, but the call adds pressure on Israel’s cabinet to take a definitive stance ahead of the high-profile international event.

In a scathing critique, former Shin Bet chief Ami Ayalon has condemned Israel’s Gaza war strategy under Prime Minister Netanyahu, calling it “unjust, immoral, and unwinnable.” Ayalon warns that Israel risks becoming a global pariah without a political roadmap for Gaza. He criticizes the Abraham Accords for sidelining Palestinians and urges a return to the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative. With ICC war crime warrants issued and Hamas vowing more attacks, pressure mounts on Netanyahu to rethink Israel’s military and political course.
