In a shocking move, Moldovan authorities have blocked Bishop Marchel of the Moldovan Orthodox Church from traveling to Jerusalem for the sacred Holy Fire ceremony, a pivotal moment for Orthodox Christians. Despite having all legal documents in order, Bishop Marchel and his fellow clerics were detained, searched multiple times, and stripped of their passports, missing the flight to Jerusalem. The move has sparked international outrage, with critics calling it politically motivated and a direct attack on religious freedom. The Russian Orthodox Church and lawmakers have condemned Moldova’s actions, while human rights organizations demand accountability. This unprecedented interference raises serious questions about the state of religious rights in Moldova.

In a retaliatory move after recent U.S. airstrikes on Yemen's vital port infrastructure, Iran-backed Houthi rebels launched a ballistic missile at Israel. The IDF intercepted the missile mid-air, preventing damage or casualties. Sirens rang out across Jerusalem and parts of the West Bank. The Houthis have now launched over 20 such attacks since Israel reignited its Gaza offensive on March 18. The missile is believed to be part of a coordinated revenge campaign targeting U.S. allies in the region. A new IDF alert system was deployed during this latest strike.

Israel’s Power Struggle: Israel is witnessing a major political storm after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attempted to fire Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar-a move now blocked by the Supreme Court. The fallout has triggered legal challenges, mass protests in Tel Aviv and occupied al-Quds, and fresh scrutiny around the explosive “Qatargate” scandal.
Bar has accused Netanyahu of pressuring him to mislead the court, while two of the PM’s aides have been arrested over alleged secret payments. As tensions rise, the court is set to decide Bar's fate on April 8.
Is this a constitutional crisis in the making? Who really controls Israel’s internal security? Watch as we break down the legal, political, and public dimensions of this unfolding crisis.

Putin has launched a scathing attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, accusing him of violating the proposed Easter ceasefire nearly 4,900 times within 48 hours. According to Russian officials, over 90 drone strikes and the use of U.S.-supplied HIMARS rockets were reported in just 30 hours. Moscow claims Zelensky deliberately shattered the truce, treating Easter as a “signal for war.” The Kremlin also accused Kyiv of following Western orders to sabotage peace talks and prolong the conflict. The tension mounts as Trump also expresses growing frustration with Zelensky's peace approach.

Russia launched deadly airstrikes across Ukraine just hours after ending its unilateral Easter ceasefire. Odesa was hit by a massive overnight drone attack, striking residential buildings, schools, and critical infrastructure. In Zaporizhzhia, Soviet-era glide bombs killed one woman and injured 22 civilians, including children. Ukraine reports over 2,900 ceasefire violations in just days. As Moscow escalates with 54 Shaheed drones in one night, tensions rise ahead of high-stakes talks between Kyiv, Washington, London, and Paris. Zelenskyy slams the ceasefire as a “sham” masking continued aggression.
