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.

SpaceX’s highly anticipated ninth Starship test flight ended in failure after a series of critical malfunctions mid-mission. Launched on May 27, 2025, from Starbase in Texas, the spacecraft initially achieved a successful ascent but quickly spiraled out of control due to a fuel system leak. The mission, which aimed to test reentry dynamics with missing heat-shield tiles and deploy eight Starlink simulator satellites, suffered multiple setbacks—including a booster loss and payload door failure.
