The Gaza Civil Defense has reported the loss of 79 aid workers since the onset of the Israeli offensive in early October, with the latest casualty occurring after an Israeli strike on a humanitarian safe zone at the al-Mawasi camp, which killed at least 90 Palestinians and wounded 300. This attack is considered the deadliest in weeks. The conflict escalated on October 7 following a surprise operation by Hamas, leading Israel to launch a full-scale war on Gaza and enforce a near-total siege, severely restricting essential supplies. The offensive has resulted in at least 38,664 Palestinian deaths and 89,097 injuries, worsening the humanitarian crisis. Limited access to food, medicine, and water has intensified civilian suffering and complicated rescue efforts. Despite international calls for ceasefires and aid, efforts at the UN Security Council to address the conflict have been hindered by vetoes, highlighting the urgent need for resolution.

Taiwan's defense ministry called the Chinese military drill
"irrational provocations," while deploying naval, air
and ground forces to "defend the island's sovereignty.".
According to Taiwanese military officials,
the latest Chinese drills are the first
simulated full-scale attack on the island. .
Maps released by China's People's Liberation
Army (PLA) showed that the exercises were
taking place all around Taiwan's main island. .
For the first time, the drills also targeted the Taiwanese islands of Kinmen, Matsu, Wuqiu and Dongyin, all which lie near to the Chinese coast. .
According to the PLA, the drills are focused on
conducting joint sea-air combat-readiness
operations and precision strikes on critical targets.
The exercises will also run integrated operations
inside and outside the island to determine the
"joint real combat capabilities" of Tawian's forces.
China's foreign ministry defended the drills
as a "necessary and legitimate move" to
safeguard national sovereignty.
I need to stress that Taiwan is an
inalienable part of China's territory.
This is both a fact based on
history and the true status quo.
This will not change in the future.

Merrick Garland , Held in Contempt of Congress.
The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives voted to hold the attorney general in contempt of Congress on June 12, BBC reports.
The resolution was passed by a 216-207 vote.
Only one Republican,
David Joyce, voted in opposition. .
As a former prosecutor, I cannot in good
conscience support a resolution that
would further politicize our judicial
system to score political points, Rep. David Joyce, via statement.
Garland is held in contempt of Congress
for refusing to provide interview tapes with President Biden that were recorded during the Justice Department's classified document probe. .
Following the contempt vote, Garland said
House Republicans have "turned a serious congressional authority into a partisan weapon.".
Today’s vote disregards the
constitutional separation of powers,
the Justice Department’s need to
protect its investigations, and the
substantial amount of information we
have provided to the Committees. , Merrick Garland, via statement.
Garland is now the third U.S. attorney
general in American history to be held in contempt of Congress, BBC reports. .
In an opinion piece published in the 'Washington Post' on June 11, Garland said that "the Justice Department is under attack like never before.".
He pointed to a rise in "conspiracy theories, falsehoods, violence and threats of violence towards department officials by Republican critics.".
The short-term political benefits of
those tactics will never make up for
the long-term cost to our country. , Merrick Garland, via the 'Washington Post'

Trump was accompanied by several family members, including Donald Trump Jr., Kimberly Guilfoyle, Eric Trump, Lara Trump, and Tiffany Trump. Missing from the event were his youngest son, Barron Trump, and his daughter Ivanka Trump, the latter having distanced herself from the political scene since her tenure in his administration.
