Hamas has responded "in a positive spirit" to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire deal proposed by President Donald Trump, opening the door for negotiations to end the 21-month-long Gaza war. The proposal includes a 60-day ceasefire, return of hostages, and negotiations on long-term peace. Trump, optimistic about a breakthrough, warned Israeli PM Netanyahu to act swiftly. However, differences remain, including troop withdrawal timelines and humanitarian access. Overnight, Israeli strikes killed at least 138 Palestinians, including children in Khan Younis. Meanwhile, hostages’ families marked U.S. Independence Day in Tel Aviv by calling on Trump to “make the deal.” The situation remains fragile as both sides weigh the terms.

In a historic and controversial move, Russia has become the first nation to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. The announcement was met with cautious optimism on the streets of Kabul, where many Afghans are now urging neighboring powers like Iran, Pakistan, and India to “choose friendship” over continued conflict. Locals say the recognition brings hope for stability, economic revival, and an end to international isolation. “War brings only destruction. We want peace and cooperation,” said Ahmad Zia Popal, a Kabul resident. The Taliban, still sanctioned by the West and condemned for its human rights record—especially on women’s rights—called Russia’s decision “courageous” and a model for others. While global criticism looms, many ordinary Afghans see this as a turning point. Moscow’s move also raises geopolitical questions as it deepens its footprint in the region amid growing tensions with the West.

In a stunning geopolitical shift, Russia has become the first country to officially recognise the Taliban government in Afghanistan. Russian Ambassador Dmitry Zhirnov personally conveyed the recognition to Afghan Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi in Kabul, marking what Taliban leaders called a "new phase" in bilateral relations.
The Kremlin, now seeking to strengthen regional influence, sees commercial potential in Afghanistan’s energy, agriculture, and infrastructure sectors, despite global condemnation of the Taliban's human rights record. Since returning to power in 2021, the Taliban have faced international isolation for enforcing brutal Sharia laws and gender apartheid. Yet, Russia has maintained its embassy, signed economic deals, removed the Taliban from its terror list, and labeled them allies in the fight against extremism. As the West tightens sanctions, Russia's move could set a precedent for others considering formal engagement with Kabul's hardline rulers.

Suspects in the March 2024 Crocus City Hall massacre that killed 149 people have reportedly told Russian investigators that a Ukrainian state entity ordered the attack. According to interrogation transcripts cited by Russian media, the attackers — all Tajik nationals — said the assault was executed by ISIS-K but coordinated through a handler named "Saifullo" linked to Ukraine.
The suspects were allegedly promised $13,000 each and instructed to flee to Kiev after the attack. They claimed their weapons came from Ukraine, with operational guidance originating from Türkiye and Afghanistan. Ukraine has denied any role in the incident, though it has previously admitted to sabotage inside Russian territory. The attack, which also injured over 600 people, marks one of the deadliest in Russia in recent memory. Questions persist around the true orchestrators of the massacre and whether foreign intelligence or proxy actors were involved.

South China Sea Breaking: In a significant escalation of defensive capabilities, Taiwan has officially formed its first combat-ready HIMARS rocket unit. This move is designed to strengthen deterrence against increasing threats and military pressure from China. Taiwan's Defense Minister, Wellington Koo, lauded the new unit as a "significant boost" to the island's defensive power, underscoring the strategic importance of this deployment. The soldiers operating these advanced systems have completed specialized training in the United States, highlighting the close military cooperation between Washington and Taipei.
The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) is a game-changer for Taiwan's military. It can fire six 227mm rockets or a single Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missile, the latter boasting a range of up to 300 kilometers. This impressive range means that key military and strategic targets deep within mainland China's coastal provinces are now potentially within Taiwan's strike capability. Reports suggest that Taiwan may have already acquired these long-range ATACMS missiles, a detail that is sure to alarm military planners in Beijing.
This deployment is part of a larger arms deal with the U.S., with 11 of a total 29 HIMARS systems already delivered. The move aligns with America's broader strategy to build a strong coalition in the Indo-Pacific to counter China's growing military and economic dominance. While the HIMARS system has proven its devastating effectiveness in the Ukraine conflict, analysts note that China's more advanced air defense systems could pose a greater challenge. The activation of this unit comes as Chinese military aircraft and vessels continue to cross the sensitive median line of the Taiwan Strait, prompting regular intrusion warnings from Taipei and keeping the region on high alert.

In a significant escalation, Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed a major missile strike against Israel's primary international gateway, Ben Gurion Airport. Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree announced that a newly unveiled missile, named "Palestine-2," was launched towards Tel Aviv, alleging it successfully halted all air traffic and caused widespread panic. The group, officially known as Ansarallah, declared the attack was an act of solidarity with the Palestinian people and the armed resistance in Gaza, vowing that such strikes will persist until Israel's military offensive and blockade on the territory come to an end.
However, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have presented a conflicting account. According to Israeli military sources, the incoming missile was successfully tracked and intercepted by its advanced air defense systems. While air raid sirens were activated in several regions across Israel as a precautionary measure, the IDF maintains that the threat was neutralized before it could impact the airport's infrastructure or cause any casualties.
The incident has drawn a sharp response from Tel Aviv. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a stern warning to Yemen, threatening "dire consequences" similar to those faced by Tehran if the Houthi attacks continue. This latest strike is part of a sustained campaign by the Houthis, who have reportedly launched over 50 missiles and drones towards Israel since the conflict in Gaza intensified, repeatedly attempting to target critical Israeli infrastructure like Ben Gurion Airport.

Deep divisions have emerged in Israel’s war cabinet as Prime Minister Netanyahu and IDF Chief Eyal Zamir clash over Gaza strategy.

Far-right ministers Ben Gvir and Smotrich accuse Zamir of blocking a Gaza victory and demand intensified operations.
