Total Faces War Crimes Claims Over Mozambique Massacre

French energy company TotalEnergies is facing accusations of complicity in war crimes related to a 2021 massacre near its gas project in northern Mozambique. A human rights group has filed a complaint in France, alleging Total enabled or supported actions by local security forces who tortured and killed dozens of civilians at its facility. The events happened in Cabo Delgado, a region troubled by violent Islamist militants. In March 2021, after insurgents attacked the town of Palma near Total’s gas plant, Mozambican soldiers reportedly detained and executed civilians in shipping containers at the site. Some victims were accused of helping the militants, but the actual number killed remains unclear. One investigative journalist estimates at least 97 deaths, possibly more. Total has denied any involvement, saying it cannot be held responsible for actions of troops guarding its gas works. The company’s […]

Nigeria and UN Sign Pact to Improve Elections and Stability

Nigeria and the United Nations have signed a new Regional Partnership for Democracy, aimed at strengthening elections, political stability, and democratic institutions in West Africa. The agreement was announced in Abuja, with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, highlighting Nigeria’s commitment to building a stable and people-centered democracy. The partnership is designed to help African nations overcome challenges such as weak institutions, low citizen participation, and political violence.

The new pact seeks to address these problems by promoting democracy rooted in African values. Minister Tuggar described the agreement as part of President Bola Tinubu’s vision for boosting democracy on the continent. The Regional Partnership for Democracy Secretariat will operate from Nigeria’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, while a technical team will be based […]

Europe ‘Not Ready’ for Russian Drone Attack – EU Defence Chief

Europe is “not ready” to defend itself from a potential Russian drone attack, EU defence chief warns, urging swift action to build continent-wide air defences and integrate Ukraine’s battlefield drone innovations. With Russian drones recently breaching EU and NATO airspace, concerns are rising over the ability of European states to counter evolving threats. The EU aims to accelerate joint procurement and deploy advanced anti-drone systems by 2027, as part of a strategy to be fully prepared for future conflicts by 2030. The bloc also plans closer NATO coordination and stronger protection for critical infrastructure like airports and energy facilities. Officials stress that while Russia cannot yet launch a direct drone assault on Europe, vulnerabilities remain. The EU is set to deepen its partnership with Ukraine, aiming for a “joint drone alliance” in 2026 to capitalize on Kyiv’s expertise and experience […]

China Approves Arrest of Ex-Abbot of Shaolin Temple Over Embezzlement

Chinese authorities have approved the arrest of Shi Yongxin, former abbot of the globally renowned Shaolin Temple, for suspected embezzlement, misappropriation of funds, and accepting bribes as a non-state employee. Shi was removed from his role in July 2025 for “extremely bad behaviour,” and is accused of misusing project funds and temple assets, leading to a formal investigation and his defrocking by China's top Buddhist authority. Shi Yongxin, nicknamed the “CEO monk,” presided over the temple since 1999 and was responsible for expanding Shaolin’s influence worldwide. Despite significant accomplishments, he drew criticism for commercialising Buddhism and was accused by former monks of financial misconduct, maintaining a fleet of luxury vehicles, and personal scandals involving alleged children with multiple women. The Henan province Xinxiang Procuratorate announced Shi’s arrest has been formally approved, although reports are unclear about his current detention status. […]

UK to Allow Nigerians, Other Foreign Students Switch to Innovator Founder Visa

The United Kingdom has announced that international students—including thousands of Nigerians—will soon be able to switch directly to the Innovator Founder visa from within the country. This major policy shift, effective November 25, 2025, allows students on valid Study visas to transition to the business-focused visa route without returning to their home country. Formerly, international students had to exit the UK before applying for the Innovator Founder visa. The new rule removes that hurdle, enabling students to set up businesses and launch their entrepreneurial careers as their applications are being processed in the UK. The Innovator Founder visa permits graduates to establish and operate innovative businesses that introduce novel products or services to the UK market. To be eligible, applicants must present a viable business idea endorsed by an approved body and meet all other requirements. This policy update follows […]

Trump Threatens to Sue BBC for Up to $5 Billion Over Edited Speech

President Donald Trump has announced plans to sue the BBC for up to $5 billion over its Panorama documentary, which combined segments of his January 6, 2021 speech in a way his lawyers allege was “false and defamatory.” The edit allegedly made it appear Trump was directly inciting the US Capitol riot, triggering outcry and the resignation of BBC Director General Tim Davie and Head of News Deborah Turness. The controversy broke after an adviser’s memo detailed how three portions of Trump’s speech were spliced, causing reputational harm that Trump’s team claims was “disseminated worldwide.” BBC Chair Samir Shah and the corporation have apologized for the “error of judgement” but rejected Trump’s demand for financial compensation or legal liability. Despite the apology and the BBC’s decision to pull the documentary from rebroadcast, Trump insists the edit amounted to “election interference” […]

Prison Looms for Brazil’s Bolsonaro After Court Rejects His Appeal

Brazil’s far-right former president Jair Bolsonaro faces imminent prison after Supreme Court judges unanimously rejected his appeal against a 27-year sentence for masterminding a failed coup following his 2022 election loss to President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. Bolsonaro, convicted in September, was found guilty of plotting to prevent Lula from taking office, with prosecutors alleging the scheme included plans to assassinate Lula and a Supreme Court judge—a plot averted due to lack of military support. With this latest decision, Bolsonaro’s legal team has only five days to file a final appeal, which can be swiftly quashed by lead judge Alexandre de Moraes. Once the final judgment is published—expected as early as next week—a warrant for Bolsonaro’s arrest will likely be issued the same day. The sentence, already reduced for age, was based on Bolsonaro’s role in instigating a violent […]

China Warns Citizens to Stay Away from Japan Amid Diplomatic Tensions

China has issued a travel advisory urging its citizens to avoid Japan after a diplomatic row flared over Tokyo’s recent comments regarding Taiwan. The dispute began when Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi told parliament that military action against Taiwan—a self-ruled island claimed by China—could prompt a Japanese response. China responded by summoning Japan’s ambassador and later warning Chinese nationals of “significant risks to personal safety” in Japan through its embassy’s official WeChat channel. Beijing criticized the “provocative remarks regarding Taiwan” and noted the damage to the atmosphere of people-to-people exchanges. In light of the advisory, China’s three biggest airlines—Air China, China Southern, and China Eastern—offered full refunds and changes on flights to Japan through December 2025. Japan’s government called China’s warning “inconsistent with the promotion of a strategic and mutually beneficial relationship” and has summoned China’s ambassador in response to […]

 Russia Finds Deceased LGBTQ Travel Agent Guilty of Extremism

A Moscow court has found 48-year-old LGBTQ travel agent Andrei Kotov guilty of extremism—one year after he died by suicide in jail. Kotov, head of Men Travel, was detained in November 2024, alleging he was beaten by police and later charged with extremism and using underage people for pornography. Rights groups say the case was a “show trial” designed to intimidate and silence the LGBTQ community. Russia’s crackdown on LGBTQ individuals has intensified since the Ukraine war, with President Vladimir Putin promoting “traditional family values” and labelling anything contrary as foreign-influenced. The Supreme Court banned the “international LGBT movement” as extremist in 2023, paving the way for arbitrary prosecution of LGBTQ people and their allies. The posthumous conviction comes despite Kotov’s death in pre-trial detention, raising concerns of judicial excess and deepening Russia’s human rights crisis. Activists warn the atmosphere […]

Doctors in England Launch Five-Day Strike Over Pay and Training Jobs

Thousands of resident doctors in England began a five-day strike—their longest ever—on November 14, protesting stagnant pay and lack of training positions. This marks the 13th medical walkout since March 2023, as the National Health Service (NHS) reels from chronic understaffing and Britain’s prolonged cost-of-living crisis. The British Medical Association (BMA) is demanding a 26% pay increase to match real earnings from two decades ago, and more training posts for junior medics struggling to secure consultant pathways. Government health minister Wes Streeting condemned the strike, branding it “political posturing,” arguing doctors recently received a 28.9% pay raise—the highest public sector award in two years. Resident doctors counter that over 30,000 candidates now vie for only 10,000 posts needed for long-term career progression, leaving many without jobs after years of training. Strikes by nurses, teachers, lawyers, and other workers continue to […]
