Iran envoy urges global action on Palestinian crisis

Iran’s ambassador has called for urgent, coordinated international action to address what Tehran describes as a deepening humanitarian and political crisis facing the Palestinian people.​ Speaking against the backdrop of the ongoing Israel–Palestine war and wider strikes in the region, the envoy urged Muslim and non Muslim nations, especially members of the Non Aligned Movement, to speak out more forcefully against Israeli military operations and the blockade on Gaza. He argued that silence or “neutrality” in the face of rising civilian casualties amounts to complicity. The ambassador called on the United Nations Security Council and General Assembly to move beyond statements and adopt “urgent, collective measures” to halt attacks on civilians in Gaza and the West Bank, ensure accountability for alleged war crimes and guarantee the delivery of humanitarian aid. He also pressed for sustained funding for UNRWA and other […]

Trump says Iran’s new Supreme Leader is alive but “damaged”

United States President Donald Trump says he believes Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, is still alive but “damaged” after the US and Israel’s opening strikes on Iran. Mojtaba, whose father and former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed on the first day of the war, has not been seen in public since he was selected by Iran’s Assembly of Experts on March 8. His first comments to the nation were delivered as a written message read out by a television presenter, fuelling speculation about his condition. An Iranian official told Reuters that the new leader was “lightly injured” and continues to function, with state TV referring to him as “war wounded.” Asked about rumours that Mojtaba might be dead or incapacitated, Trump told Fox News’ “Brian Kilmeade Show”: “I think he probably is (alive). I think he is […]

US House likely to reject move to limit Trump’s Iran war powers

The United States House of Representatives is expected to vote down a bid to limit President Donald Trump’s authority to continue military operations against Iran. The measure mirrors a resolution that failed in the Senate, where most Republicans blocked an attempt to require Trump to obtain explicit congressional approval before extending the campaign in Iran. Republicans, who hold a slim majority in both chambers, argue that the president has sufficient constitutional and statutory authority to act and describe the strikes on Iran as defensive and necessary. Democrats, backed by a few Republicans, insist that Congress must reassert its war powers, warning that the widening conflict with Iran risks dragging the US into a prolonged and open ended war in the Middle East. Analysts say even if the House and Senate were to pass a war powers resolution, Trump would almost […]

Nigerians in Middle East send distress calls as FG halts pilgrimage

Escalating violence in the Middle East has disrupted Nigerian pilgrimage plans and triggered distress calls from citizens living and working in the region. The Nigerian Christian Pilgrim Commission has announced the immediate suspension of all pilgrimages to Israel, citing the worsening security situation and the state of emergency declared by Israeli authorities. Executive Secretary Bishop Stephen Adegbite said the decision covers both government organised and privately arranged trips until conditions improve. He explained that the safety and welfare of pilgrims remain the top priority and urged intending pilgrims and operators to exercise patience while the Commission closely monitors developments. The suspension came shortly after the conclusion of the 2025 Main Pilgrimage to Israel and Jordan, during which over 4,000 pilgrims were successfully airlifted, with the last batch arriving Lagos on March 3. Adegbite appealed to Nigerians to pray for peace […]

Zelensky warns of air defence supply risks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that escalating conflict in the Middle East could jeopardize Ukraine’s access to critical air defence systems. He said the growing military demands in the region may divert both weapons supplies and political attention away from Kyiv’s fight against Russia. In an interview with Corriere della Sera, Zelensky explained that the United States and its Middle Eastern partners may prioritize their own defence needs, particularly advanced systems such as Patriot missiles. He acknowledged the risk that Washington and the European Union could shift focus from Ukraine if the crisis involving Iran expands into a prolonged war. Since Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022, Ukraine has remained central to Western diplomatic and military support. However, officials in Kyiv now sense a shift in global attention. Heavy use of interceptor missiles by Gulf countries could create shortages in […]

Iran in Crisis After Khamenei’s Death

The reported killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in the opening phase of joint US-Israeli air strikes has plunged the Islamic Republic into its most fragile position since the 1979 revolution. The operation—described by Washington as a decisive attempt to dismantle Iran’s command structure—targeted senior military and political figures. By Saturday night, widespread reports of Khamenei’s death triggered rare scenes of public reaction, including small celebrations in parts of Iran and among diaspora communities abroad. For many critics of the regime, the development signaled a historic rupture. US President Donald Trump urged Iranians to “take over your government,” while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu suggested regime change was both achievable and desirable. The military campaign, dubbed Operation Epic Fury by US officials, appeared tightly coordinated. However, the political consequences inside Iran remain uncertain and potentially volatile. On Sunday, Iranian […]

Oil Prices Jump Amid Strait of Hormuz Crisis

Global oil prices climbed sharply after Iran intensified strikes across the Middle East, raising fears of disruption to energy supplies. Brent crude, the international benchmark, jumped 10% on Monday to briefly exceed $82 per barrel following reports that at least three vessels were attacked near the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend. Natural gas prices also surged by up to 25% amid concerns about supply constraints. Iran warned commercial vessels against passing through the strategic waterway, through which roughly 20% of global oil and gas shipments transit. Shipping activity at the entrance to the strait has slowed dramatically, with analysts cautioning that a prolonged disruption could drive energy prices significantly higher. In the UK, the FTSE 100 opened nearly 1% lower, with airline shares hit by widespread airspace closures across the Middle East. European markets experienced sharper losses: France’s CAC […]

Iranian Drone Crashes at UK Base in Cyprus

An Iranian drone crashed inside the British military base at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus around midnight on Sunday, according to Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides. No injuries were reported and damage was described as minimal. The UK Ministry of Defence confirmed that, as a precaution, family members of personnel stationed at the base would be moved to alternative accommodation. On Monday, staff at the base were warned of an “ongoing security threat” and advised to stay away from windows and take shelter behind furniture. Christodoulides stated that a Shahed unmanned aerial vehicle had crashed within the British Sovereign Base Area. Cyprus officials later said two drones heading toward RAF Akrotiri had been intercepted. The Sovereign Base Areas Administration announced a temporary dispersal of non-essential personnel from the station but clarified that nearby Akrotiri village residents did not need to evacuate. Separately, […]

Eleven Killed in Gaza Amid Ceasefire Strains

Eleven Palestinians were killed in Israeli air strikes in the Gaza Strip on Sunday morning, according to Palestinian civil defence and health officials. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it targeted what it described as terror infrastructure in response to alleged ceasefire violations by Hamas. The military added that militants were killed after emerging from a tunnel into an area of Gaza under Israeli control. The Palestine Red Crescent Society reported that a strike on a tent encampment in northern Gaza killed at least six people, while another strike in the south of the territory left five dead. Israel and Hamas have traded accusations of near-daily violations since a fragile ceasefire took effect on 10 October. The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza says at least 600 people have been killed since the truce began. Earlier this month, local officials reported […]

Israel’s new West Bank measures spark annexation fears

Palestinians, several Arab states and Israeli anti-occupation organisations have denounced new measures approved by Israel’s security cabinet for the occupied West Bank, warning they amount to a form of de facto annexation. The steps were announced by far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who said they would make it easier for Jewish settlers to acquire Palestinian land. “We will continue to eliminate the idea of a Palestinian state,” he declared. Under international law, Israeli settlements in the occupied territories are widely considered illegal. The measures, which still require formal approval from Israel’s top military commander in the West Bank, are designed to expand Israeli control over land management, planning, licensing and enforcement across the territory. They were unveiled just days before a scheduled meeting in Washington between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump. According to Israeli officials, […]
