Nigeria Quds Day Protest: Pro-Palestinian Protesters vs Police in Abuja - Dozens Killed, Open Fire

In a violent crackdown during International Quds Day, Nigerian security forces opened fire on pro-Palestinian protesters in Abuja, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens more. Video footage from the scene shows armed forces securing the perimeter as demonstrators flee, with some being dragged lifeless into trucks by soldiers. This violent suppression follows a pattern of force used against Quds Day demonstrators in previous years, sparking outrage and concern from human rights organizations. The Nigerian government had previously warned of potential unrest, citing concerns over the protesters' demands for justice in support of Palestine. This tragic event has left many questioning the Nigerian government's response to peaceful demonstrations and the growing tension surrounding global solidarity for Palestine. #Nigeria #QudsDay #PalestinianProtest #AbujaProtests #HumanRights #ProPalestine #InternationalQudsDay #PoliceBrutality #PeacefulProtest #ProtestViolence #NigeriaCrackdown #PalestinianSolidarity ~PR.274~ED.102~HT.410~GR.125~

75,000 Worshippers Gather at Al-Aqsa for Ramadan's Final Friday Prayers Amid Israeli Restrictions

Around 75,000 Muslim worshippers gathered at Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem for the final Friday prayers of Ramadan. Despite facing strict Israeli restrictions and reported harassment, Palestinians participated in the prayers at the sacred site. The number of worshippers this year was notably lower due to increased security measures. Al-Aqsa Mosque, a significant religious site for Muslims, remains a focal point of tensions, with ongoing restrictions on Palestinian access further intensifying regional grievances. #AlAqsa #Jerusalem #Ramadan #Palestine #Israel #Prayers #OccupiedJerusalem #FinalFriday #MuslimUnity #ReligiousFreedom #IsraeliRestrictions #MiddleEast #AlAqsaMosque #PrayerGathering #Peace #FreedomOfReligion #PalestinianRights #HolySite #Conflict #BreakingNews ~HT.336~GR.124~

‘The US can choose the course..’: Iran Drops Post-Meeting Bombshell After Talks With Trump Envoy

The U.S. and Iran have begun rare face-to-face nuclear talks in Oman, led by Trump envoy Steve Witkoff. The White House described the meeting as “constructive,” though it follows heavy U.S. military deployments, signaling a mix of diplomacy and pressure. Iran's uranium enrichment nears weapons-grade, prompting urgency. Trump’s administration insists on strict inspections and disarmament. Despite Tehran’s warnings and skepticism, further talks are set for April 19. Analysts suggest Iran is feeling the heat from increased U.S. and Israeli readiness for strikes if negotiations fail to limit its nuclear ambitions. #USIranTalks #TrumpEnvoy #IranNuclearDeal #OmanDiplomacy #SteveWitkoff #MiddleEastTensions #NuclearStandoff #TrumpReturns #ElonMusk #MarcoRubio #MilitaryPressure #IranUranium #B2Bombers #PeaceOrWar #ForeignPolicy #IAEA #WhiteHouse #AbbasAraghchi #OmanTalks #Geopolitics ~HT.96~ED.346~GR.124~
