Ireland, Norway and Spain Join International Push to Recognize a Palestinian State
Ireland, Norway and Spain , Join International Push to , Recognize a Palestinian State.
Spain, Ireland and Norway have all said they would
officially recognize a Palestinian state on May 28, amid
international concern over the ongoing war in Gaza.
Associated Press reports that the decision
may generate momentum for other
EU countries to recognize a Palestinian state.
Seven members of the 27-nation
European alliance have already
officially recognized a Palestinian state.
140 of the about 190 countries in the United Nations
have also already recognized a Palestinian state.
International pressure on Israel has been
growing as the offensive in Gaza has
now stretched into its eighth month.
.
This recognition is not
against anyone, it is not
against the Israeli people.
It is an act in favor of peace,
justice and moral consistency, Pedro Sánchez, Spanish Prime Minister,
via The Associated Press.
On May 11, the U.N.
General Assembly voted to grant
new "rights and priveleges" to Palestine, a sign of
growing support for a potential vote on full membership.

We used to think that
recognition would come

that recognition should
come as an impetus, as a

Dmitry Medvedev, former Russian President, has sparked controversy with his fiery remarks, demanding retribution for Europe’s involvement in the Ukraine conflict and the alleged refusal of a Norwegian ship to help a sinking Russian vessel. Calling European nations "deceitful," "brainless," and "bloodthirsty," Medvedev argued that the countries opposing Russia’s actions must face consequences. In this video, we explore Medvedev’s intense rhetoric and the geopolitical implications of his words. What does this mean for the future of relations between Russia, Europe, and the U.S.? Watch now to understand the impact of this growing tension.

Trump’s Gaza ‘Riviera’ Plan has sparked massive outrage in the Muslim World. U.S. President Donald Trump’s controversial plan to turn Gaza into a Middle Eastern ‘Riviera’ has triggered a major Arab summit in Saudi Arabia. Leaders from Egypt, Jordan, the UAE, Qatar, and other Gulf nations are gathering to discuss a unified response to the proposal, which involves expelling Gaza’s Palestinian population. While Cairo has proposed an alternative reconstruction plan, divisions remain over who should govern Gaza post-war. As regional tensions escalate, the summit is expected to shape the future of Gaza and broader Middle East geopolitics.

Hamas ready to release all Israeli hostages at once in Gaza ceasefire negotiations. Hamas has announced its readiness to release all remaining Israeli hostages at once during the second phase of Gaza ceasefire negotiations, as reported by Al Jazeera. The group proposed exchanging all Israeli captives for Palestinian prisoners in a single exchange, aiming to secure a permanent truce and full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. The ceasefire deal, brokered by Egypt, Qatar, and the US, began on January 19. In the first phase, Hamas agreed to release 33 hostages in return for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.

Hezbollah’s explosive warning has sent shockwaves through Israel, as the group’s Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem issued a final ultimatum demanding the full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory by February 18. In a fiery statement, Qassem warned of severe consequences if Israel fails to comply, escalating fears of a potential military confrontation.
Qassem also took direct aim at former U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, accusing them of attempting to erase Palestine through policies he described as "political genocide." He slammed Trump’s approach to the Palestinian cause, calling it an orchestrated effort to eliminate Palestinian identity and sovereignty.

Tens of thousands of Yemenis rallied across Sa’ada province in a powerful show of solidarity with Palestine and the Axis of Resistance. Protesters condemned the US-backed Gaza displacement plan and vowed to resist any forced removal of Palestinians. Senior Houthi leader Mohammad Ali al-Houthi warned the US that Yemen’s military is prepared for escalation. With tensions mounting, Yemen’s Ansarullah movement has reaffirmed its commitment to defending Palestine against US-Israeli schemes, signaling potential regional consequences in the face of forced displacement.

Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has issued a stark warning against U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan to relocate Palestinians from Gaza, calling it a "criminal" scheme to empty Palestine. In a fiery speech, he threatened military intervention, including missile and drone strikes, if the plan is enforced by force. Al-Houthi provocatively suggested that if the U.S. is concerned about Jewish welfare, it should relocate them to America instead. The Houthis have already launched over 40 missiles and 320 drones at Israel and vow to resume attacks if Trump’s plan moves forward.
