Paris erupted in anger as pro-Palestinian protesters carried plastic skeletons, baby shrouds, and peace doves to expose Israel’s Gaza famine and ongoing genocide. Chants of “Israel get out, Palestine is not yours” echoed across the French capital. Demonstrators accused Israel of war crimes, condemned the killing of journalists, and demanded sanctions and urgent humanitarian aid. Meanwhile, Emmanuel Macron backed a two-state solution under rising international pressure. With nearly 63,000 Palestinians killed since October 2023, the streets of Paris sent a clear message: the world will not stay silent.

In a fiery intervention at the United Nations, China accused Israel of being the “occupying power” in Gaza and demanded an immediate halt to its plans to seize Palestinian land. Speaking at the UN, Chinese Deputy Permanent Representative Geng Shuang warned that Israel’s intentions would further inflame regional tensions and undermine peace efforts. He sharply criticized Israel for showing “low political will” toward any genuine action for peace, accusing Tel Aviv of escalating the conflict instead of resolving it. China reaffirmed its support for a two-state solution and emphasized the urgent need for the international community to hold Israel accountable. The strong remarks mark one of Beijing’s boldest positions yet on the Gaza crisis, underscoring its growing influence in Middle East diplomacy. Israel has yet to respond formally, but the comments highlight widening global divisions over Gaza and the future of the Palestinian territories.

In a dramatic realignment of U.S. military assets, Washington has reportedly redeployed a THAAD missile defense battery from the UAE to Israel as fears mount of a wider regional war with Iran. The move comes as Israel prepares potential large-scale operations in Gaza, while Tehran flaunts new hypersonic missiles capable of piercing existing defenses. Analysts warn that by stripping the UAE of its shield, the U.S. is signaling Israel’s survival is its top priority, even at the cost of Gulf security. The Pentagon has yet to confirm the transfer, but military flights between Abu Dhabi and Tel Aviv suggest assets were quietly shifted. With Iran testing advanced Sejjil and Fattah-1 systems and regional cyberattacks crippling Tehran’s air defenses, the next Israel-Iran confrontation could be deadlier than ever. THAAD’s redeployment underscores Washington’s belief that the decisive front is now Israel—not the Gulf.

US Vice President J.D. Vance has defended his fiery Oval Office clash with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, calling the February confrontation “useful” for Americans to witness. The heated exchange erupted during Zelensky’s Washington visit to secure a deal over Ukraine’s mineral resources. When Donald Trump explained his decision to stay neutral and pursue diplomacy with Moscow instead of ramping up military aid, Zelensky accused him of speaking from the safety of “a nice ocean.” Vance shot back, calling the remark “disrespectful,” and Trump told Zelensky not to lecture Americans. Vance later argued that years of unchecked aid under Joe Biden lacked strategy and failed to advance peace. He said the episode exposed Washington’s frustrations and underlined Trump’s push for a settlement with Moscow. The clash has become a flashpoint in US-Ukraine relations, showing cracks in support for Kyiv as Trump courts a diplomatic end to the war.

In a fiery White House exchange, South Korean President Lee Jae Myung sided with U.S. President Donald Trump as both leaders accused Joe Biden of enabling North Korea’s nuclear rise. President Lee told Trump the Korean peninsula was “stable” during Trump’s first term, but claimed North Korea advanced its weapons program significantly under Biden’s watch. Trump immediately seized the moment, declaring, “They would not have done that if I were President,” to which Lee replied, “I completely agree with you.” The dramatic on-camera moment is fueling debate in Washington and Seoul, with critics warning that such public criticism of Biden could inflame U.S. domestic politics and reshape Korean diplomacy. Supporters of Trump, however, hailed the remarks as proof that his strongman approach had kept Pyongyang in check. The sharp rebuke leaves Biden facing fresh questions over his North Korea policy.

Russia’s missile strike on the U.S.-owned Flex factory in Ukraine was seen as a potential turning point in the war. But instead of lifting the ban on deep Ukrainian strikes inside Russia, President Trump responded with a tweet blaming Biden—without directly condemning Putin. Even after Putin openly rejected Trump’s calls for talks, the U.S. president showed restraint, raising doubts about his approach to Moscow. With Ukraine seeking stronger support and Russia flexing military power, Trump’s silence underscores Putin’s upper hand in diplomacy.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump reacted sharply after Russian missile strikes destroyed an American-owned factory in Ukraine, accusing Joe Biden of weakness and incompetence. Trump argued that Ukraine cannot win the war without striking inside Russia, blasting Biden for only allowing Kyiv to “defend” instead of “fight back.” He claimed the invasion would have “zero chance” of happening if he were in office, declaring that Biden’s failed leadership emboldened Moscow. The attack, which hit a U.S. electronics plant in western Ukraine, has intensified tensions and raised fears that Russia is deliberately targeting American investments. Trump’s fiery comments come as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warns that Vladimir Putin does not want peace but seeks to install a Russian-controlled puppet regime. With Washington and Europe scrambling for security guarantees, Trump’s blunt remarks signal deep divisions in U.S. policy as the war enters a new, dangerous phase.

Donald Trump has introduced a new strategy to deter illegal immigration: painting the southern border wall black. Kristi Noem revealed the move, saying the black paint will absorb more heat, making the wall harder to climb while extending its durability. Border officials claim construction is advancing at half a mile per day, with added sensors and cameras. Interim El Paso Sector Chief Walter Slosar said migrant apprehensions have dropped dramatically, highlighting Trump’s tougher enforcement compared to Biden.
