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 Macron’s bombshell announcement that France will recognize Palestine at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September — making it the first major Western power to do so. Russia, which adopted Palestine’s 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. Macron’s decision has enraged Israel and the U.S., with Netanyahu calling it a “reward for terror” and Secretary of State Marco Rubio labeling it “reckless.” Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia and Spain have praised the move, calling it “historic.” Over 59,000 Palestinians have died in the ongoing Gaza war, intensifying the global demand for Palestinian recognition.

Tensions between Cambodia and Thailand exploded into deadly border clashes this week, killing at least 13 and displacing over 170,000. Cambodia has urgently called for an immediate ceasefire, citing a desire for a peaceful resolution. The conflict flared near the disputed Preah Vihear and Prasat Ta Muen Thom temples, ancient religious sites turned battlegrounds. Artillery and rocket fire were exchanged, with accusations flying at the United Nations Security Council.
Thailand blamed Cambodia for "inhumane" attacks, while Cambodia argued that Thailand initiated the violence. A century-old land dispute—rooted in colonial maps and contested rulings—has resurfaced, reigniting fears of a broader war. The 2013 ICJ ruling gave control of the 11th-century Preah Vihear temple to Cambodia, yet Thailand continues to dispute surrounding territory. With both militaries mobilized and thousands fleeing their homes, the region teeters on the edge of a larger humanitarian crisis.

Hundreds of Israeli cruise passengers aboard the Mano Maritime–operated Crown Iris found themselves unable to disembark at the Greek island of Syros after a pro-Hamas, pro–Palestinian protest blocked the port. Local demonstrators—estimated at around 150–200—raised Palestinian flags, chanted slogans, and formed a human barrier, prompting Greek authorities and the cruise line to halt disembarkation out of concern for passenger safety.

At the United Nations Security Council, India fiercely rebutted Pakistan’s attempts to internationalize the Kashmir issue and challenge the Indus Waters Treaty. India’s UN Ambassador P Harish accused Pakistan of harboring terrorism and disrupting international peace, labeling it a “terror haven” and “serial borrower.” Meanwhile, Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar insisted Kashmir is a disputed territory and demanded UN intervention. This heated exchange highlights the escalating diplomatic tensions and the complex geopolitical battle over Kashmir and water rights in South Asia.

Pakistan is staring at a water disaster as India holds the Indus Waters Treaty of 1960 in abeyance. The flow of water from rivers like Chenab and Jhelum has plummeted, with Punjab province the worst affected. Water availability in the Indus system is down by over 10%, raising alarm for the approaching kharif season. Pakistan's key dams—Tarbela and Mangla—are also below optimal levels. The crisis follows India’s suspension of the treaty after the Pahalgam terror attack, and Pakistan has warned that blocking water flow could be considered an "act of war."
