Germany plans to “launch a deportation campaign,” according to the new coalition agreement under conservative Chancellor Friedrich Merz. The migration plan mirrors almost exactly that of the far-right AfD, which recently became the leading party in German polls for the first time. Islam appears only as a security threat—Muslim life is either ignored or criminalized.

Violence erupted in southern India as police attacked protesters opposing the new Waqf (Amendment) Act. Demonstrators from the Solidarity Youth Movement and Students Islamic Organisation were met with smoke grenades, water cannons, and batons in Karipur, Kerala.
The law, pushed through by Modi’s far-right government, adds non-Muslims to boards overseeing Muslim community properties. These lands include mosques, schools, graveyards, orphanages, and other vital services.
Muslim groups and opposition leaders call it a direct assault on religious autonomy. Without formal documents, many historic sites could be seized or dismantled—deepening fears of erasure under an increasingly Hindu nationalist state.
To understand how Modi’s rise is rooted in anti-Muslim violence, go back to Gujarat, 2002—and take a closer look at how it shaped his political path.

🟡 BREAKING: Ahmad Manasra, imprisoned at the age of 13, has been released from Israeli detention.
After serving a nine-and-a-half-year sentence—during which he endured torture and years in solitary confinement—he is finally free. Although Israeli courts found no evidence, Ahmad was accused at age 13 of attempting to murder two Israelis in Jerusalem.
A widely circulated video showed Ahmad’s interrogation while he was a child, conducted without a lawyer or a parent present. Israeli interrogators reportedly deprived him of sleep, physically assaulted him, and denied him a fair trial. The prolonged torture led to severe psychiatric conditions, with his mental health deteriorating to a life-threatening level.
Today, at 23 years old, Ahmad has been released under strict conditions. Journalists are barred from entering his family’s building, gatherings are not allowed, and no one is permitted to welcome him home.
Do we even need to explain this?

Israel has committed a new massacre in Gaza, killing at least 35 people. Entire residential buildings have been reduced to rubble in one of the largest attacks on the Shujayea district in northern Gaza City.
Survivors described the large-scale attack as an earthquake that disintegrated people into pieces. At least 80 people are missing, believed to be trapped under the rubble or vaporized by the strikes.
Israel's war on the besieged Gaza Strip, which, according to official records, has killed over 50,800 people, shows no signs of stopping. Israel currently occupies more than 50% of the Gaza Strip.
According to Haaretz, the army is preparing to turn the entire Rafah area into a buffer zone, with residents barred from returning and the possibility of demolishing all buildings. Rafah recently witnessed massive forced displacements, with civilians killed while fleeing, and 15 paramedics executed and buried in a mass grave.

Three US citizens convicted over a failed coup in DR Congo have been repatriated to serve life sentences in the US. Originally sentenced to death, their transfer comes as Washington eyes Congo’s vast mineral wealth.
Among them is Marcel Malanga, 21, son of coup leader Christian Malanga, who was killed during the attack on the presidential palace. Also returned were Tyler Thompson Jr. and Benjamin Zalman-Polun, linked to Malanga via a gold mining firm. Their release follows backroom deals between the US and Kinshasa over cobalt and coltan access.
Talks involve "multibillion-dollar investments" and military aid against Rwanda-backed rebels. The US condemned the May 2024 attack but now protects its citizens while deepening extractive ties. 34 other foreign and Congolese convicts remain in limbo.

Today marks the 77th anniversary of the Deir Yassin massacre. On April 9, 1948, just weeks before the creation of the State of Israel, members of the Irgun and Stern Gang Zionist militias attacked the Palestinian village of Deir Yassin, killing at least 107 Palestinians.
According to testimonies from the perpetrators and surviving victims, many of the people slaughtered, from those who were tied to trees and burned to death to those lined up against a wall and shot by submachine guns, were women, children, and the elderly.
As news of the atrocities spread, thousands fled their villages in fear. Eventually, some 700,000 Palestinians would flee or be forcibly displaced at the outset of Israel’s creation, making the massacre a decisive moment in Palestinian history.

Thousands of Indigenous Brazilians marched in the country’s capital yesterday to demand the recognition of their ancestral lands. The march marked the end of the annual “Free Land Camp,” the country’s largest Indigenous summit.
In addition to land rights, they are also fighting for environmental justice and a fair energy transition. Another key demand that emerged from the summit was for COP30 organizers to give Indigenous leaders equal weight to heads of state.

“This is the body of a child. Is he a terrorist?” The US has targeted a residential area in Hodeyda, Yemen, killing at least six civilians, including three children.
The US-led attack on Yemen, ongoing since March 15, has killed at least 92 people. Despite US President Trump claiming “the Houthis have been decimated by relentless strikes,” Pentagon officials admit the impact has been limited. US officials say the bombings, heavier than those under Biden and larger than publicly acknowledged, have failed to weaken Yemen's capabilities or disrupt the Red Sea blockade.
The US has spent nearly $1 billion on its war in Yemen, according to the Pentagon. The high costs of deploying aircraft carriers, B-2 bombers, fighter jets, and air defense systems are raising concerns among military officials. US commanders are increasingly worried about the implications of these deployments on the country’s readiness for a potential conflict with China.

“They’re calling us up, kissing my ass” — Trump mocks world leaders as 104% tariffs on China take effect.
At a Republican fundraising dinner last night, Donald Trump ridiculed foreign leaders claiming they’re desperate and begging for trade deals. “They are dying to make a deal. Please, sir, make a deal. I’ll do anything, sir.”
The comments came at the same time the US imposed a historic 104% tariff rate on Chinese goods. While Trump bragged that countries are begging for relief, he admitted China had not reached out — calling them a “proud people.”
Beijing, for its part, says it will not cave to US pressure and is instead expanding trade partnerships elsewhere. Meanwhile, the European Union is walking a fine line, preparing retaliatory tariffs of its own in response to US measures. At the same time, it is also pursuing a 'zero-for-zero' tariffs deal with Washington.

Iran and the US to meet Saturday for nuclear talks.
US President Trump announced that a high-level meeting with Iran will take place in Oman. Trump emphasized that the US is holding direct talks with Iran—a claim repeatedly denied by Iranian officials, who have only accepted indirect talks.
Trump said that “doing a deal would be preferable to doing the obvious,” hinting at a strike on Iran. Meanwhile, the US is reinforcing its military presence in the region—with warplanes and carriers—as part of its war on Yemen and pressure campaign against Iran.
Despite a US Intelligence Community report confirming that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon—and Trump’s withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal—Israel and the US claim to want to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Netanyahu suggested using Libya’s 2003 nuclear disarmament deal as a model. Despite promises from the US and UK of revitalization, cooperation, and sanctions relief, Libya ultimately faced a NATO invasion in 2011.

Indigenous leaders are demanding equal decision-making authority as heads of state at the upcoming COP30 summit. The UN Climate Change Conference is scheduled for November of this year in Belém, Brazil.
Gathering in Brasília for a conference, 8,000 Indigenous leaders from around the world issued the call for substantive inclusion in climate policy decisions. Delegations from Latin America and the Pacific joined under the slogan “We are the response.”
In Brazil, severe drought conditions in 2024 contributed to wildfires that burned around 18 million hectares of Amazon rainforest, an area larger than all of England. While Brazil’s COP30 team announced an Indigenous Leadership Circle, participants argue that symbolic gestures are not enough.
This call for equitable representation comes at a time when the US is experiencing a resurgence of climate change denialism. The Trump administration has initiated policies that roll back environmental protections and promote fossil fuel production by big corporations.
“Bella Ciao” from Gaza to the world.

“165 days of torture.” Today, Israel released ten prisoners from the besieged Gaza Strip. They had been held in the infamous Sde Teiman torture center, where rape and torture to death of Palestinian prisoners have been documented. The prisoners show various signs of torture on their bodies, including one who is unable to walk.
Since October 2023, Israel has detained over 15,800 Palestinians from the West Bank. The figure does not include those arrested from the Gaza Strip, as Israel has not provided any details about individuals arbitrarily detained there.

“We want to return to the camp.” Listen to a Palestinian man defying the Israeli army in Tulkarem refugee camp.
Displaced residents of Tulkarem refugee camp have been trying to return to their homes despite the presence of the Israeli army. The Israeli military operation "Iron Wall" has been ongoing in Tulkarem for over 70 days, expanding day by day. The army has destroyed roads, residential areas, and infrastructure, making the camp unrecognizable. Residents describe the destruction in Jenin, Tulkarem, and Nablus as worse than during the Second Intifada.
Israeli annexation plans in Palestine are being implemented in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. The ongoing displacement of Palestinians has surpassed 40,000 people, and the approval of new settlement plans has reached record numbers in 2025. In February, Finance Minister Smotrich stated, “Tulkarem and Jenin are going to look like Jabaliya and Shujayia.”

32 years ago today, one of South Africa’s most iconic figures, the communist revolutionary Chris Hani, was assassinated.
Born Martin Thembisile Hani, he is remembered as the charismatic, passionate, and principled General Secretary of the South African Communist Party (SACP).
At just 15, Hani joined the ANC Youth League and became active in protests against the Bantu Education Act. After completing his studies, he joined the ANC’s armed wing, uMkhonto we Sizwe (MK), eventually rising to the position of chief of staff. Pursued by the apartheid regime, he went into hiding and adopted the name Chris. He received military training in the Soviet Union and fought in joint operations between MK and the Zimbabwe People’s Revolutionary Army during Zimbabwe’s liberation struggle.
Following the unbanning of the ANC in 1991, Hani returned to South Africa and succeeded Joe Slovo as leader of the SACP. On April 10, 1993, he was assassinated by white supremacist Janusz Waluś.

Happy birthday to the Palestinian resistance icon and former guerrilla fighter, Leila Khaled! She went down in history for her fearless operations and is still active for the Palestinian cause today.
Her family had to flee Israeli ethnic cleansing from their hometown Haifa when Khaled was only a small child, ending up as refugees in Lebanon. Khaled and her family later joined the Marxist-Leninist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which schooled her in the Guerrilla struggle in the hinterland of the Jordanian capital Amman.
Khaled and the PFLP gained attention in 1969 for hijacking a passenger plane without bloodshed, based on the suspicion that the former Israeli ambassador to the U.S. was onboard. The photo of Khaled wearing the kuffiyeh and carrying an AK-47 rifle, being the first woman ever to hijack a plane, spread across the globe.

A young man threw back a gas canister fired by the Israeli army during its assault on the Balata refugee camp in Nablus.
Israel has officially announced the expansion of its military operation, “Iron Wall,” in the West Bank to include Nablus and the Balata refugee camp. Several families were forced to flee by the Israeli army, who told them they would not be allowed to return. Snipers have been deployed on rooftops, camp entrances have been closed, and many individuals have been interrogated and arrested. The Israeli invasion of the camp was met with stone-throwing and chants in support of the resistance.
Israel’s military operation in the West Bank has now surpassed 75 days, resulting in the displacement of over 40,000 people—the largest displacement since 1967. In the occupied West Bank, at least 911 Palestinians have been killed by the army or by Israeli settlers since October 7, 2023.

Greeks have organized a 24-hour general strike today, halting flights, ferries, and public transport. Unions are demanding higher wages and the restoration of collective Labor rights that were removed during the EU-enforced austerity measures that followed the 2010 crisis.
Greece has some of the lowest wages anywhere in Europe, whilst also having a cost of living in line with wealthier EU nations. The strike also closely follows another round of strikes earlier this year, which took place around the anniversary of the Tempi train disaster. 57 were killed in that incident after austerity and privatization policies led to a decline in safety standards on public transport.

The far-right AfD continues to surge in Germany. According to the latest Ipsos poll, it is now the strongest party in the country for the first time in history.
This marks a new all-time high for the AfD. It also confirms a steady rise in support for the far right in Germany. The CDU/CSU, meanwhile, is back near the same level it had in 2021, when it lost power and moved into opposition.
To understand what this rise means in practice, read more about how over 100 known right-wing extremists are now working inside the German parliament—hired by the AfD and paid by the taxpayer.

At least 33 people have died in Kinshasa, the capital of the DR Congo, due to flooding caused by torrential rains. The Ndjili River overflowed, submerging homes and infrastructure, leaving numerous people trapped.
Criticism has been mounting against the government for its slow response and poor disaster management. Kinshasa’s inadequate infrastructure, including blocked drainage systems, has worsened the crisis.
In an unusual turn, photos emerged showing civilians helping military officials through floodwaters, reversing the usual roles.
President Félix Tshisekedi faced public criticism as recovery efforts continue. The government has set up emergency shelters for displaced families, but many people remain without access to clean water and basic services.

Trump wants Palestinians to be expelled and Gaza under US control.
Standing beside Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu at the White House, the US president called Gaza “incredible real estate.” He said America should “own” and “control” it. Trump also reaffirmed his plan for the removal of Palestinians out of Gaza.
Netanyahu, under an active arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court for war crimes, including the use of starvation as a weapon, stood alongside Trump. This occurred during Netanyahu’s official visit to the United States, where he still remains today. While the US is not obliged to enforce the warrant, ICC members, including France, let Netanyahu use their airspace.
Since January, Trump has publicly pushed for the displacement of Gaza’s population, calling the territory a “demolition site” and urging Egypt and Jordan to take them in. This plan has been widely condemned as a form of ethnic cleansing by the UN, Human Rights Watch, and legal scholars.
