Palestinian journalist Hind Khoudary opens cafe in Gaza City
Hind Khoudary, a Palestinian journalist known for her coverage of Israel's genocidal war on Gaza for Aljazeera, has opened a beachside cafe in Gaza City.
'On the beach' opened to the public a week ago, to "provide even a small service" to Palestinians suffering intense heat, Israeli strikes, and limited food and aid supplies to the besieged enclave, said Khoudary.
"I missed seeing Gaza the way I used to love seeing it," she added, hoping the space would provide a sense of relief after over two years of genocide.

"The Iran war may be fought primarily remotely via the air, but its strategic outcome is increasingly being decided at sea.
The latest strikes and counterstrikes have clarified rather than altered that central fact. Washington may escalate through a ground intervention, wider attacks on Iran’s critical infrastructure, or a strike against the deeply buried nuclear-linked complex at Pickaxe Mountain in Isfahan province.
Each option could inflict further damage and expand the war. None, however, is likely to eliminate Iran’s distributed maritime architecture or make the Strait of Hormuz strategically irrelevant.
Ukraine has shown the entire world that a fleet can be beaten without a fleet. Iran has shown that a navy can destroy a superpower’s strategic objectives and shape diplomacy without winning a single naval battle."

Iran attributes instability of Hormuz Strait to US and Israel
During a press conference Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, remarked how the current state of instability in the Strait of Hormuz has entirely been caused by the US-Israeli aggression against Iran.
"We all know that the Strait of Hormuz had no problems up to 28 February 2026, and it was open," he said. He added that "the United States continues to speak with pride about implementing a naval blockade against Iran," despite it being an "admission of an aggressive act against Iran."

Oil leaks from grounded Russian tanker off Oman’s coast
An oil spill from a tanker that ran aground off Oman has reached the coastline, affecting roughly 390 square kilometres, according to the most recent analysis from the country's environment agency.
The crude oil tanker Caroline Bezengi had been stranded for weeks near Oman's Al-Qibliyyah island after it was damaged by explosions.
Omani authorities have not yet identified the cause of the spill. But British maritime security company Vanguard told AFP last week that the tanker was hit by explosions in early June as it sailed off the coast of Yemen, causing water to enter several sections of the vessel.

US doctor recounts treating injured children in Gaza
US doctor recounts treating patients and injured children in Gaza amid severe medical shortages and relentless Israeli bombardment, including the amputation of a five-year-old girl without anesthesia.
“I did a leg amputation on a five-year-old girl, and the only anesthesia that we had was the anesthesia doctor singing to her. She didn't faint. We were praying for her to faint. She stayed awake the whole amputation,” says Dr Mark Perlumtter.

Protesters commemorate Rabaa massacre in Manchester

"The Rabaa massacre is a wound that doesn't heal," said Tarek Morsy, a former Egyptian MP, and added that there is not a specific day to commemorate the massacre, as it "always lives in our hearts and minds."

📰 Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Sunday that Tehran and Muscat were working to establish a temporary maritime route through the Strait of Hormuz, while stressing that the talks were separate from any decision on reopening the strategic waterway.
“The routes that existed previously are no longer functional, so a new route needs to be defined,” Araghchi said.
“For now, we are designing a temporary route, which can then, at a later stage, be turned into a final route.”
Araghchi said negotiations with Oman were continuing over maritime routes for ships passing through the strait.

📰 "In the Gaza Strip, modern brutality has made its terrible presence felt through atrocity after atrocity, in full view of the entire world.
These horrors were caused not by a natural disaster, but by the tsunami of modern genocide carried out by Israel using American and western weapons, munitions and technologies.
Genocide has taken possession of the defining features of everyday life in all their details, leaving its tragic imprint on the population in every sphere.
The fragments that follow are drawn from that reality.
The children of Gaza know no daily life without a menacing sound accompanying them day and night, without pause. This has been the case almost since the moment they first opened their eyes to the world."

Why are Israel and Venezuela friends again?
A diplomatic shift that would have seemed impossible barely a year ago: Israel and Venezuela have restored full diplomatic relations, ending 17 years of severed ties.
For years since Israel’s 2009 war on Gaza, Venezuela has been one of Israel's fiercest critics in the Americas, and a close ally of Iran and the Palestinians.
Under Trump and a compliant new government, Venezuela has swung sharply towards both Washington and Israel. And it is not alone. Across Latin America, a wave of new right-wing governments is rushing to embrace Israel, even as its warfare in Gaza and the West Bank continues.

Kushner says Israel can 'finish the job properly' in Gaza if Hamas does not disarm
“We will not allow Gaza to be rebuilt until the demilitarisation occurs.”
Speaking to Fox News after a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, US President Donald Trump's envoy and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, said that Israel will have the support of the US to “finish the job properly” in Gaza if Hamas does not agree to disarm.
Kushner also said that he had a "very cordial" meeting with Hamas and that getting the group to disarm and move forward with Trump's peace plan could materialise in about a month.
However, he added that Trump's "Board of Peace" will "not restrict Israel’s right to defend itself if there are any imminent threats".

Palestinian American citizen reunites with family under Israeli settler siege in Qusra
"Earlier today they still shaking hands with the settlers instead of arresting them and removing them from the area.”
Loui Ridi, a Palestinian American citizen who lives in Ohio, reunited with his family on Monday, who have been under Israeli settler siege in Qusra in the occupied West Bank.
The siege began when settlers surrounded three homes on a hilltop in the village, setting up tents to force families out and take control.
Despite the Israeli military deploying troops to maintain order, settlers are still roaming around the properties, harassing Palestinian families.
