China probes top generals Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli

China’s defence ministry says the Communist Party has opened investigations into senior military figures Zhang Youxia and Liu Zhenli for suspected serious violations of discipline and law. Zhang is a Politburo member and vice chairman of the powerful Central Military Commission (CMC), while Liu serves as chief of staff of the CMC Joint Staff Department.​ Zhang, 75, is widely regarded as President Xi Jinping’s closest ally in the People’s Liberation Army and one of the few top officers with combat experience. He is a key architect of China’s military modernisation and one of two CMC vice chairmen overseeing the country’s armed forces.​ The move is the latest step in Xi’s sweeping anti corruption drive, which has heavily targeted the military since 2012. In October 2025, eight top generals, including former CMC vice chairman He Weidong, were expelled from the party […]

Ukraine says deadly Russian strikes threaten US‑backed peace talks

Ukraine has accused Russia of undermining efforts to end their nearly four‑year war by launching fresh deadly attacks while Ukrainian, Russian and U.S. officials hold direct peace talks in Abu Dhabi. Overnight bombardments killed one person and injured 27 in Kyiv and Kharkiv, even as negotiators met for a second day to discuss the latest U.S.‑brokered proposals.​ Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga said President Vladimir Putin ordered a “brutal massive missile strike” on Ukraine while the delegations were meeting, accusing Moscow of hitting “not only our people, but also the negotiation table”. Ukraine’s chief negotiator Rustem Umerov said discussions in Abu Dhabi were focused on parameters for ending the war and the future logic of the negotiation process.​ The talks come after U.S. President Donald Trump met Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky at the World Economic Forum in Davos and U.S. envoy […]

Zelenskiy: Territorial issue on table at UAE trilateral talks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy says the vital question of territory in Ukraine’s war with Russia will be discussed at U.S.‑brokered trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi on Friday and Saturday. Kyiv faces growing pressure from Washington to strike a peace deal in the nearly four‑year conflict, while Moscow is demanding that Ukraine give up the entire eastern Donbas region before halting its offensive.​ Speaking in a WhatsApp media chat a day after what he and U.S. President Donald Trump described as positive talks, Zelenskiy said the status of Donbas would be a central focus of the UAE meeting. “The issue of Donbas is key,” he said, adding that the talks would examine how all three sides view the territorial question.​ An aide to Zelenskiy said discussions would start on Friday evening. A major sticking point remains Russian President Vladimir Putin’s demand […]

Trump sends US ‘armada’ toward Gulf amid Iran tensions

President Donald Trump says a US “armada” is heading toward the Gulf as Washington keeps a close watch on Iran despite recently playing down the prospect of imminent military action. He told reporters on Air Force One, returning from the World Economic Forum in Davos, that the United States was sending a “massive fleet” toward Iran “just in case”, adding that he would rather avoid conflict but was monitoring Tehran “very closely”.​ Trump has repeatedly kept open the option of new strikes on Iran after backing Israel’s 12 day war in June aimed at degrading Iranian nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities. He said in Davos that US attacks on Iranian uranium enrichment sites last year were intended to prevent Tehran from developing a nuclear weapon, something Iran denies.​ The latest remarks come after weeks of seesaw rhetoric, with Trump at […]

Trump’s Greenland climbdown eases tension but future still unclear

U.S. President Donald Trump has backed away from using tariffs or military force to push his controversial plan to acquire Greenland from Denmark, easing fears of a major transatlantic rift. After weeks of threats, he dropped the tariff idea and hinted that a preliminary agreement over the Arctic territory could be reached instead.​ Trump’s bid to gain control of Greenland, a Danish territory and key NATO outpost, had alarmed European allies who saw it as a direct challenge to an alliance that has underpinned Western security since World War Two. Following talks at the World Economic Forum in Davos with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, Trump voiced optimism about a deal that would secure a U.S. missile defence site and access to critical minerals while countering Russian and Chinese influence in the Arctic.​ European stock markets steadied on the news, […]

Trump says US, NATO will ‘work something out’ on Greenland

Britain has approved China’s plan to build its largest embassy in Europe on the Royal Mint Court site near the Tower of London, ending a three year planning deadlock. The decision comes despite warnings from some British and U.S. politicians that the complex could boost Chinese espionage activities in the UK.​ The government took over the planning process after the local council rejected Beijing’s application in 2022, and an inquiry was held last year to review the project. Officials said all material considerations were assessed and that the approval is now final unless overturned in court.​ The move is expected to smooth the way for Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s planned visit to China, the first by a British leader since 2018. Chinese President Xi Jinping had previously asked Starmer to intervene, and both sides viewed the embassy decision as key […]

Israel starts demolishing UNRWA headquarters in Jerusalem

Israeli bulldozers have begun demolishing parts of the headquarters of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, in occupied east Jerusalem. The operation took place in the Sheikh Jarrah area, where an Israeli flag was seen flying over the compound.​ UNRWA spokesman Jonathan Fowler said Israeli forces entered the compound shortly after 7 a.m., removed security guards and then allowed bulldozers to move in and start tearing down buildings. He called it an unprecedented attack on the agency and a serious breach of international law and UN privileges and immunities.​ Fowler warned that what is happening to UNRWA today could happen to any other international organisation or diplomatic mission if such actions go unchallenged. Photos from the scene showed heavy machinery at work and extensive damage inside the compound.​ Israel’s far right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir briefly visited […]

Iran may ease internet blackout as hacked TV shows revolt calls

Iran may lift its nationwide internet blackout within days after using sweeping restrictions to crush the biggest anti government protests since the 1979 Islamic Revolution. A senior lawmaker said top security bodies will decide on restoring access once they judge that security conditions are appropriate.​ Authorities largely shut internet and international phone lines as unrest spread across the country from late December, only allowing a heavily filtered connection in recent days. Monitoring group Netblocks said national connectivity remains very low, with a controlled filternet now letting some messages through.​ An Iranian official told reporters that the verified death toll from the protests has passed 5,000, including about 500 security personnel, with some of the worst violence in Kurdish areas in the northwest. Rights groups abroad also say thousands were killed, citing reports of protesters hit by pellets in the face […]

Trump links Greenland threat to Nobel Peace Prize snub

United States President Donald Trump has linked his push for control of Greenland and his tariff threats against European allies to his failure to win the Nobel Peace Prize. In a message to Norway’s Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere, he wrote that he no longer feels obliged to think only of peace after the Norwegian Nobel Committee passed him over.​ Trump complained that Norway did not award him the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize, which went instead to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado. He said he can now focus on what he considers good and proper for the United States, while still claiming peace remains a priority.​ The president has intensified his demand for the U.S. to take control of Greenland from Denmark, arguing that Copenhagen cannot defend the island from Russia or China. He has questioned why Denmark has […]
