Trump posts self as ‘acting president’ of Venezuela

US President Donald Trump has shared a doctored image on his Truth Social account describing himself as the “Acting President of Venezuela, incumbent January 2026.” The graphic, styled to look like a Wikipedia page, lists him as both the 45th and 47th US president and claims he now leads the South American country.​ The post comes days after a US military operation in Caracas that saw Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores captured and flown to New York to face drug and weapons related charges. Trump has said his administration will “run” Venezuela and oversee its oil assets during what he calls a transition period.​ Despite Trump’s online claim, no international body or foreign government has recognised him as Venezuela’s acting leader. The country’s actual acting president is Vice President Delcy Rodríguez, who has rejected US authority […]

Adelaide Writers’ Week cancelled after author row

One of Australia’s most important literary gatherings has been thrown into turmoil after organisers removed a high-profile Australian-Palestinian author from its programme, triggering mass withdrawals and the eventual cancellation of the festival’s Writers’ Week. The Adelaide Festival board announced last week that Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah had been dropped from its Writers’ Week lineup, citing “sensitivities” following a deadly shooting at a Jewish cultural event in Bondi in December. Fifteen people were killed in that attack, which authorities said was inspired by the Islamic State group. Although the board said it was not suggesting any link between Abdel-Fattah and the attack, it argued that her past public statements made her appearance “culturally insensitive” in the current climate. Abdel-Fattah strongly rejected the move, describing it as an act of discrimination and censorship against Palestinians. The decision quickly sparked a wave of protest […]

Syrians say recruiter sent them to die in Ukraine

A young Syrian man has described how he was lured into Russia’s war in Ukraine by a recruiter who later burned his passport after he refused to pay to stay out of combat. Omar, 26, says he was recruited by Polina Alexandrovna Azarnykh, a Russian woman who runs a Telegram channel offering foreign men contracts with the Russian military. Speaking to the BBC under a false name for his safety, Omar said he was promised safe, well-paid work and even Russian citizenship, but instead found himself fighting on the front line with minimal training. In a video sent to Omar, flames can be seen consuming his Syrian passport while a woman’s voice in Russian says, “It’s burning well.” Omar says the voice belongs to Azarnykh, who became angry after he refused to pay her $3,000, money she had allegedly demanded […]

BBC moves to dismiss Trump’s $5bn lawsuit

The BBC has announced it will seek to have Donald Trump’s lawsuit thrown out, challenging both the legal basis and the location of the case over how his January 6, 2021 speech was edited in a Panorama documentary. The US president filed a $5 billion lawsuit in Florida last month, accusing the British broadcaster of defamation and of breaching a trade practices law. He claims the programme wrongly suggested he directly called for violence ahead of the Capitol riot. In court documents submitted on Monday, the BBC said the Florida court does not have “personal jurisdiction” over the organisation and that the venue is not appropriate for the case. The broadcaster also argues that Trump has failed to present a legally valid claim. The BBC has already acknowledged that the way the speech was edited created a misleading impression. It […]

Iran protests: witnesses allege live fire on crowds

Witnesses in Iran say security forces have used live ammunition against unarmed demonstrators as protests spread across the country over worsening economic conditions and political grievances. One protester, identified here as Omid to protect his safety, described scenes of violence in a small city in southern Iran where he has been taking part in demonstrations. Speaking in a trembling voice and fearful of being identified, the man in his early forties said he saw security personnel firing directly at crowds. According to his account, protesters were confronted by forces using Kalashnikov-type assault rifles. He said people collapsed where they stood, despite posing no armed threat. “We are facing a harsh system with nothing but our voices,” he explained, describing the protests as a struggle carried out with “empty hands”. The BBC has received multiple testimonies echoing Omid’s claims, pointing to […]

Families doubt Venezuela’s prisoner release pledge

The son of an imprisoned Venezuelan opposition figure has urged former US President Donald Trump to remain firm on Caracas, warning that the government has not honoured its pledge to free large numbers of political detainees. Ramón Guanipa, whose father Juan Pablo Guanipa is a prominent opposition leader, said only a small fraction of those jailed for political reasons have been released so far. He believes Trump may not yet be aware that fewer than 50 of the more than 800 reported political prisoners have actually been freed. Last week, the Venezuelan authorities announced they would begin releasing detainees in what they described as a goodwill gesture. The move followed the dramatic seizure of President Nicolás Maduro in Caracas on 3 January by US forces, after which he was taken to New York to face drug-trafficking charges. Soon after the […]

Doctors restore sight in rare eye condition

Doctors at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London say they have achieved what was once thought impossible: restoring vision and stopping blindness in people with a rare and serious eye condition called hypotony. Hypotony happens when pressure inside the eye drops to dangerously low levels, causing the eyeball to collapse in on itself. This can lead to permanent vision loss. Until now, treatments have been limited and often only slowed the damage without bringing real sight back. In a major breakthrough, specialists at Moorfields have developed a new treatment using a clear, water-based medical gel called hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). Instead of being used briefly during surgery, the gel is injected directly into the eye at regular intervals to restore pressure and keep the eyeball in its normal shape. Early results are highly encouraging. In a small trial, seven out of eight […]

Trump says US will take Greenland one way or the other

US President Donald Trump says the United States will take control of Greenland “one way or the other,” warning that Russia or China could move in if Washington does not act. He describes the mineral rich Arctic territory, which is part of Denmark, as vital for US security because of growing Russian and Chinese activity in the region.​ Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump says he prefers to reach a deal with Greenland’s self governing authorities but is ready to consider tougher options if negotiations fail. He argues that countries should “own” key territory rather than rely on leases, and says the United States must be ready to defend Greenland as its own.​ Trump has repeatedly suggested that if the US does not act, Russia or China will “take over” Greenland, a prospect he calls unacceptable. He also […]

North Korea says shameless US is making a mockery of UN

North Korea has accused the United States of abusing the United Nations and trying to turn it into a tool for its own interests. Pyongyang called US actions “shameless” and said Washington was making a mockery of the UN through its behaviour.​ In a statement from its mission to the UN in New York, North Korea condemned reported US plans to hold a briefing on alleged North Korean violations of UN sanctions. It said the real issue the UN should focus on is what it described as a “hideous criminal act” by the United States, without giving details.​ Pyongyang said the US “despises the existence of the UN itself” and uses the organisation only when it serves its strategic goals. It warned that Washington’s “irrationality and malpractice” in using the UN arena for unilateral and selfish purposes should not be […]

Iran not seeking war but fully prepared, says minister

Iran’s foreign minister says the country does not want war but is fully prepared to fight if necessary. He also says Tehran is open to talks with the United States if negotiations are fair and based on mutual respect.​ Abbas Araghchi told a gathering of foreign ambassadors in Tehran that Iran is ready for both conflict and diplomacy. He stressed that any talks must give Iran equal rights and must not be dictated by Washington.​ Araghchi’s comments come as US President Donald Trump signals that Iran’s leadership is seeking negotiations after he warned of possible military action over the crackdown on protests. Washington has also maintained a “maximum pressure” policy aimed at curbing Iran’s nuclear programme.​ The minister repeated that Iran’s nuclear activities are peaceful, even as Western countries and the UN nuclear watchdog say Tehran once ran an organised […]
