🚨🇮🇱🇵🇸 Israeli forces carried out a major DEMOLITION near Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza. Whatever the military objective, scenes of large-scale destruction near medical facilities are deeply disturbing after years of devastating war in Gaza. Hospitals and the civilians around them should NEVER be treated as an afterthought in warfare... Writer: Samuel t.co/s2p12gf1eS

🚨🇪🇭🇮🇱 Israeli FM Smotrich says the West Bank response should be “exactly like Gaza.” In other words, they want to get their genocide going again so they can finish the Greater Israel project. This dude is a monster! Writer: Jamie t.co/zTf5vlu7Ij

🇺🇸 The Atlanta Falcons' graphic designer will probably need to keep off social media for a while... The NFL team released its brand new logo yesterday, and its gone viral for ALL the wrong reasons. Thousands of commenters are posting memes referencing The Third Reich (even calling the team "The Bird Reich"), saying the logo is Naziesque... What do you think? Is the reaction justified?

The suspect has been taken into custody. Sources: AFP, WF Witness (TG) / Writer: Michael

🇵🇸🇮🇱 Security cameras captured a shooting attack near Hebron this morning, and both gunmen were KILLED in the ensuing firefight. The footage shows the attackers arriving armed with an M-16-style rifle and a handgun before opening fire. Israeli troops responded, exchanging fire with the attackers and killing both at the scene. Netanyahu has announced a LOCKDOWN on the West Bank in response... Writer: Samuel t.co/wYO43xjJTK

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Brent crude oil has climbed to $113.66 per barrel, approaching a 5-month high as fears grow over another round of U.S.-Israeli strikes against Iran. Oil briefly reached $114.65 earlier today, with prices now up nearly 87% since the beginning of the year. The latest increase comes as Washington and Israel reportedly prepare for a renewed military offensive against Iran. Possible targets include Iranian nuclear facilities, missile production sites, and energy infrastructure, though no final decision has been confirmed. Meanwhile, renewed attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and threats against Gulf energy facilities are adding pressure to oil markets. With Brent already above $113, another major escalation could send prices sharply higher, with the crisis now already contributing to disorder in Europe and extreme fuel shortages in parts of Asia.

🇬🇧 A box of Pokémon cards sitting in a British man's attic for 15 YEARS just sold for more than $2 MILLION! The owner originally bought some of the sets for just a few hundred dollars. The retired decorator had collected 41 complete Pokémon card sets between 1999-2009, then stored them away after his son lost interest. At auction, the collection fetched £1.56 million ($2.09 million), more than 6x its estimated value. One Legendary Collection set containing a rare Charizard sold for $174,000, while a Skyridge set originally bought for ~$400 fetched around $131,000. Sometimes cleaning out the attic really can make you a millionaire. Source: AA / Writer: Samuel

🚨🇮🇱 The man who helped make Netanyahu Prime Minister of Israel is now openly opposing him... Billionaire and World Jewish Congress President Ron Lauder says Israel "stands to lose badly" if Bibi is reelected this Tuesday. “Your fathers fought for the country, and you’re losing everything because of stupidity.” He says Netanyahu put his own ambitions ahead of Israel's. And he's definitely not alone in that. Thiel breaking with Trump on the Iran war, now Lauder breaking with Netanyahu... There's only so much recklessness these billionaire backers are willing to accept! Writers: Jamie, Michael t.co/PCkVbgaVqI

🇮🇷 Iran says Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is still firmly IN COMMAND, despite staying out of public view. An IRGC representative said Khamenei continues to oversee Iran's government and armed forces under wartime conditions, describing him as healthy and in “full command of the situation.” Iranian media also reported this week that Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf met Khamenei to discuss military and economic developments in the war. But Khamenei's limited visibility has fueled questions about how power is actually being exercised, with previous reporting indicating the IRGC has gained significant influence over wartime decision-making. The IRGC representative also vowed the confrontation with Israel would continue until the “resistance” achieves its objectives. Source: Iran Int'l (anti-regime outlet) / Writer: Samuel

🚨🇷🇴 BREAKING: Georgescu will remain BEHIND BARS... You read that right: the person who won the first round of the 2024 presidential election will remain in prison due to accusations that have NOT been proven, accusations that are, in fact, RIDICULOUS. The Bucharest Court of Appeal rejected Georgescu's request for house arrest, meaning he will remain in pre-trial detention. The decision was unusually close: the original two-judge panel split, forcing a third judge to step in and break the deadlock. FREE GEORGESCU!!!! Source: libertatea / Writer: Samuel

🇫🇷 Paris shopkeepers aren’t counting on Macron to save the weekend. They’re buying self-defense WEAPONS instead.

What started as students angry about crumbling schools has spiraled into nationwide chaos. Sources: The Times, The Independent / Writer: Julie

🇰🇵🇷🇺 Russia is helping North Korea rapidly expand its missile and drone programs, intensifying the arms race on the Korean Peninsula. In exchange for supplying Moscow with troops and weapons for its war in Ukraine, Pyongyang is gaining valuable battlefield experience and access to Russian military technology. This cooperation is helping North Korea improve missile accuracy, develop more advanced attack drones and strengthen its electronic warfare capabilities. Russia is also reportedly sharing drone technology and manufacturing expertise, allowing Pyongyang to develop weapons based on systems tested in Ukraine. Meanwhile, North and South Korea have conducted competing hypersonic weapons tests, as tensions rise along their heavily militarized border. The fear is now that North Korea will get bolder as its advantages grow while America becomes increasingly tied down in the Middle East. Source: The New York Times / Writer: Mhedi

🇫🇷🇨🇳 The cost of living crisis has reached the people who buy Birkin bags. Shares of LVMH and Hermès have crashed about 40% this year, and the luxury giants now trade at their cheapest valuations in more than a decade. Wealthy Chinese shoppers have pulled back, war-driven inflation is squeezing spending, and Dubai’s shopping hubs have been disrupted by the Middle East war. Somewhere a billionaire is choosing between a 3rd yacht and a 4th Birkin. Tough times. Source: Bloomberg / Writer: Julie

🚨🇷🇺🇺🇦 Putin on Ukraine: "The latest genetic research shows that Russians and Ukrainians are actually one people. Well, if someone wants to think differently, to see things differently, that's fine. We accept that." Russia is home to about 200 distinct ethnic groups... If shared ethnicity justifies annexation, Putin has 200 problems at home. Writer: Michael t.co/Qy85Ri2XRE

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Ukraine has reportedly hit one of Russia's main TAX DATA CENTERS, about 400 km east of Moscow. The facility is reportedly one of 2 main centers that store and process Russia's state registry records and major tax databases. Russian authorities reported intercepting drones in the area and disruptions at Nizhny Novgorod airport, but they haven't confirmed any damage to the site. If that was really the tax data center, it could disrupt a range of Russian government digital systems. Kyiv may have just found a way to make Russians skip tax season 😆 Sources: Infobae, EFE / Writer: Julie t.co/yBzk3pxlWB

🚨🇷🇺🇪🇺 Putin believes Europe's support for Ukraine is proving unsustainable: "If you look at the political processes taking place in Europe, it becomes obvious that the peoples of Europe do not want to fight Russia. I want us to be heard. We do not want war, and we are not preparing for any kind of war with Europe." Do you believe him? Writer: Mhedi t.co/tuhimRt4XB

🚨🇺🇸 "The Closetocracy" dropped yesterday, detailing the late Sen. Lindsey Graham's alleged encounters with 3 men who say he paid them for sex. And one of them was allegedly 17 at the time. The timing is no coincidence, with his sister running for a full-term in his Senate seat just 11 days from now... But it raises some troubling questions: handling classified info, dealing with foreign countries, while engaged in sex acts (again, allegedly) with a minor? Talk about a compromising postion....

🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canadian PM Mark Carney: "[Trump] is under no illusions. It's absolutely clear where I stand, where Canada stands, where Canadians stand. We will NEVER be the 51st state.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Fmr. U.S. Army Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson warns that further strikes against Iran could send oil prices to $170 a barrel. The consequences of the existing war are already being felt severely worldwide. Across Southeast Asia, fuel supply disruptions have caused enormous lines at gas stations, with some motorists waiting for hours to refuel. France has already experienced violent protests and widespread curfews as living costs soar, alongside reports of a massive drop in food consumption. Similar unrest has erupted in Milan. These pressures could become far more severe if another kinetic war pushes energy prices even higher, potentially fueling prolonged strikes, transport blockades and wider civil unrest. A renewed offensive could also disrupt fertilizer production, drive up food prices and cripple shipping routes, with consequences reaching agriculture, manufacturing and semiconductor supply chains. With emergency petroleum reserves already being tapped, another major escalation could leave governments with fewer options to contain inflation and shortages. The next round of war could simply push the global economy beyond its breaking point, turning energy shortages into widespread economic paralysis and social unrest.

🚨🇷🇺🇪🇺 Putin calls Europe "schizophrenic": "They are constantly talking about the threat from Russia and preparing for war with Russia, which, in my view, is a kind of political schizophrenia." Housing crisis? Russia. Economic problems? Russia. Political failures? Russia again. At some point, European leaders might have to take responsibility for their own countries...

🇺🇸🇰🇵 Trump wants to catch up with his old pal Kim Jong Un in China next month. Unfortunately, Kim seems to have left him on read. U.S. and South Korean officials now see little chance of a meeting this year, with North Korea not responding to the outreach. Even Trump is cooling on it: “I get along with him very well, and I'm not sure that anybody's asking for a meeting.” After this week's death rumors, Washington should just be happy he's alive enough to ignore them… Source: Reuters / Writer: Julie
