Keir Starmer’s Labour conference speech: The main points

Sir Keir Starmer has delivered his first Labour Party conference speech as prime minister.

In a speech briefly disrupted by a pro-Palestine protester, he addressed the new government’s unpopular cuts to the winter fuel allowance, and warned of further tough decisions to turn the country around.

However, there were some announcements which will be welcome to many, including the introduction of a Hillsborough law, and guaranteed homes for veterans, young care leavers, and victims of domestic abuse.

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~
