Ridge Hospital Assault: Probe Finds No Medical Evidence

The committee investigating the recent Ridge Hospital assault incident has concluded that there is no medical evidence to support claims that Rejoice Tsotso Bortei, a rotation nurse, suffered a shoulder dislocation during the altercation.

Modi to Visit China After Border Clash as Trump’s Tariffs Push India Toward Beijing

Five years after a deadly Himalayan border clash froze ties between India and China, the relationship appears to be warming — under the pressure of US President Donald Trump’s sweeping 50% tariffs on Indian imports. For the first time since 2018, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to China this week to attend a Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit hosted by President Xi Jinping. The visit comes despite the lingering scars of the 2020 Galwan Valley clash, where Indian and Chinese soldiers fought brutal hand-to-hand combat with rocks and clubs. Now, both leaders are set to meet face-to-face, signaling that economic stability may be taking precedence over old rivalries. The SCO gathering — which will also include leaders from Russia, Pakistan, Iran, and Central Asia — is expected to be the largest in the bloc’s history. Beijing and Moscow […]

UN Demands Accountability After Israeli Strikes Kill Journalists and Health Workers at Gaza Hospital

The United Nations has called for “accountability and justice” after back-to-back Israeli strikes on Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis killed at least 20 people, including health workers, journalists, and first responders. The attack on Monday has drawn global outrage from press freedom groups, medical organizations, and foreign governments. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said an initial inquiry found that soldiers from the Golani Brigade had identified a camera allegedly set up by Hamas near the hospital. The military claimed the camera was being used to monitor Israeli troop movements and direct attacks. However, Israel did not provide evidence to support the claim, nor did it explain why two consecutive strikes were carried out within minutes — even though the area is well-known as a gathering spot for journalists who frequently livestream from the location. The IDF also said six “terrorists” […]

Denmark Summons US Envoy Over Alleged Covert Ops in Greenland

Denmark’s foreign minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen has summoned the top US diplomat in Copenhagen following reports that American citizens have been carrying out covert operations in Greenland. According to Danish broadcaster DR, sources allege the operations aimed to infiltrate Greenlandic society and promote the territory’s secession from Denmark to the United States. The report did not clarify who the individuals were working for. Danish intelligence services have repeatedly warned that Greenland is a target for foreign influence campaigns because of its strategic location and natural resources. Rasmussen stressed that “any attempt to interfere in the internal affairs of the Kingdom [of Denmark] will of course be unacceptable,” confirming that the US charge d’affaires had been summoned for explanations. The BBC has approached both the US embassy in Copenhagen and the State Department for comment. The controversy comes against the backdrop […]

Israeli Military Orders “Inevitable” Gaza City Evacuation Amid Offensive

The Israeli military has told Palestinians that the evacuation of Gaza City is “inevitable” as its forces prepare for a full takeover. In a post on X on Wednesday, military spokesperson Avichay Adraee urged families to relocate south, promising they would “receive the most generous humanitarian aid.” Overnight, Israeli tanks advanced into the Ibad al-Rahman district, in Gaza City’s northern outskirts, destroying homes and forcing more residents to flee. Witnesses said the sounds of heavy explosions grew louder as families escaped. By Wednesday morning, tanks had reportedly pulled back to Jabalia, where Israeli troops said they eliminated a “terrorist cell” and uncovered a weapons storage site. Meanwhile, bombardment continued in Shejaiya, Zeitoun, and Sabra districts. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to conquer the entire Gaza Strip after ceasefire and hostage talks with Hamas collapsed last month. But he is […]
