US President Donald Trump has said he wants to move swiftly to the second phase of the Gaza peace plan, while issuing a strong warning to Hamas, insisting the group must disarm or face severe consequences.

US strikes suspected drug boats, five reported dead

The United States military says it carried out strikes on two boats suspected of drug trafficking on Wednesday, resulting in the deaths of five people on board. The US Southern Command did not disclose the exact location of the operation. According to the US military, the action is part of a broader campaign targeting vessels believed to be smuggling narcotics across maritime routes in the Caribbean and the eastern Pacific. These operations have been ongoing for roughly three months. The latest strike followed another operation a day earlier, during which US forces targeted what they described as a convoy of three boats allegedly involved in drug trafficking. That earlier action reportedly left at least three people dead. The Trump administration has framed these operations as part of a non-international armed conflict against drug traffickers. However, several legal experts have raised […]

Taiwan has kept its military and coast guard on high alert even as Chinese naval and coast guard ships began pulling back after massive drills around the island.

Isiah Whitlock Jr dies at 71

Veteran American actor Isiah Whitlock Jr has died at the age of 71, his manager has confirmed. The news was announced by Brian Liebman, who described Whitlock as both a close friend and longtime client.

Israel to revoke licenses of 37 aid groups

Israel has announced it will revoke the operating licenses of 37 humanitarian organisations working in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, citing non-compliance with new registration requirements introduced by the government. Among the organisations affected are several prominent international NGOs, including ActionAid, the International Rescue Committee and the Norwegian Refugee Council. According to Israeli authorities, their licenses will be suspended from 1 January, with their activities required to cease within 60 days. The Israeli Ministry of Diaspora Affairs, which oversees the registration process, said the decision was mainly due to the organisations’ failure to submit “complete and verifiable” personal information about their staff. The ministry argued that these details are necessary to prevent what it described as the infiltration of terrorist elements into humanitarian structures. The move has drawn strong criticism from the international community. In a joint statement, the […]

Thailand releases captured Cambodian soldiers

Thailand has released 18 Cambodian soldiers who had been held since July following deadly clashes along the disputed border between the two countries. The handover comes under the ceasefire agreement reached on Saturday to halt weeks of fighting.

The release eventually went ahead after sustained diplomatic efforts by China aimed at ensuring the ceasefire remains intact. Tensions along the Thailand–Cambodia border escalated sharply earlier this month, after years of simmering disputes. The fighting lasted several weeks and forced close to one million civilians to flee their homes in affected areas. Under the ceasefire deal, both sides agreed to freeze troop positions at current front lines, prohibit reinforcements and allow displaced civilians to return to border communities as soon as conditions permit. The Cambodian […]
