Netanyahu, Western Leaders Clash as UK, Canada, Australia Recognise State of Palestine

The governments of the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia yesterday formally recognised the State of Palestine, escalating diplomatic tensions with Israel as war rages in Gaza. Portugal is expected to follow suit. The coordinated announcement came after months of warnings that recognition would follow if Israel failed to commit to a peace process that allowed for a two-state solution. Starmer: “A Step Toward Peace” UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer defended the decision, saying it was necessary to preserve the hope of peace amid Gaza’s humanitarian crisis. “In the face of the growing horror in the Middle East, we are acting to keep alive the possibility of peace and a two-state solution,” Starmer said in a post on X. He stressed that recognition “is not a reward for Hamas,” adding that the group “can have no role in government, no role […]

Fact Check: CRISPR Therapy ‘Erases’ HIV from Cells — But No Cure Yet

A viral Facebook post with over 350,000 likes and 75,000 shares claims that scientists have developed a CRISPR-based therapy that removes HIV DNA from human cells and prevents the virus from returning. Fact CheckThis claim is misleading. While CRISPR research has made progress in laboratory experiments, no therapy has yet been proven to permanently remove HIV from the human body or to guarantee that the virus will not return. What the Science Says Laboratory Research:In 2024, researchers at Amsterdam University Medical Centre used CRISPR-Cas9 with two guide RNAs to cut HIV DNA out of CD4+ T cells in lab dishes. In those treated cells, the virus did not replicate immediately. However, this experiment was conducted outside the human body and does not reflect the complexity of HIV in living patients. Human Trials:The most advanced CRISPR therapy for HIV is EBT-101, […]

Nigerians Split Over Charlie Kirk’s Assassination

Nigerians have expressed mixed reactions to the assassination of American conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was shot dead on September 10, 2025, during a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University, Orem, Utah. The 31-year-old co-founder of Turning Point USA was addressing mass shootings in the U.S. when a gunman, identified as Tyler Robinson, shot him in the neck. The incident cut short what was meant to be the first stop of Kirk’s American comeback tour. Kirk was widely known for his controversial views on race, religion, and politics. In past debates, he had made remarks criticized as racist and divisive, including questioning the competence of Black professionals and warning against what he described as the threats of Islam, Marxism, and “wokeism” to Western values. Nigerian reactions:Kirk’s death has sparked debate among Nigerians. Some, especially church leaders and gospel singers, praised […]

Hamas warns Gaza hostages could share fate of missing Israeli pilot

Hamas’ armed wing on Saturday published “farewell” photographs of most of the remaining hostages in Gaza, warning that Israel’s expanding ground assault on Gaza City could endanger their lives. The group invoked the case of Ron Arad, an Israeli air force navigator missing since 1986 after being shot down over Lebanon, whose fate remains unresolved decades later. Hostages at risk Of the 251 people seized during Hamas’ October 2023 attack on Israel, 47 remain in Gaza, including 25 whom the Israeli military has declared dead. “Due to (Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu’s obstinacy and (military chief Eyal) Zamir’s submission… a farewell photograph taken at the start of the operation in Gaza City,” the Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigades wrote on Telegram alongside the images. The militants released 46 photographs of hostages, each labelled with the name “Ron Arad,” a symbolic warning of possible […]

Estonia blasts Russia over brazen airspace violation

Estonia’s foreign ministry has accused Russia of violating its airspace, calling the incursion by Russian fighter jets “brazen” and “extremely dangerous.” According to officials in Tallinn, three Russian MiG-31 warplanes entered Estonian airspace without permission on Friday, flying over the Gulf of Finland for a total of 12 minutes. The aircraft reportedly had their transponders switched off, a move seen as a direct provocation against a NATO member state. In response, Estonia summoned Russia’s chargé d’affaires to lodge a formal protest. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas described the incident as “an extremely dangerous provocation,” while Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna called it “unprecedentedly brazen.” “Russia’s increasingly extensive testing of boundaries and growing aggressiveness must be met with a swift increase in political and economic pressure,” Tsahkna warned in a statement. Estonian officials noted that Russia has violated the country’s […]
