Iraq has strongly condemned the use of its airspace by the U.S. and Israel for launching attacks on Iran, calling it a violation of its sovereignty. The country’s National Security Advisor, Qasim al-Araji, reiterated Iraq’s firm stance against the exploitation of its territory for military actions against any neighbouring nation. This follows allegations that Israel used U.S.-controlled airspace over Iraq to conduct airstrikes on Iranian military sites. Iraq has submitted formal protests to the United Nations, demanding accountability for the breach of its airspace and emphasising its commitment to maintaining neutrality and regional peace.

In a dramatic claim, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) has suggested that the United States is considering a major political shift in Ukraine, potentially orchestrating elections in 2025 to replace President Volodymyr Zelensky. According to the SVR, the U.S. views Zelensky as "overly entitled" and may initiate both presidential and parliamentary elections to remove him from power, despite the ongoing war with Russia. The U.S. is reportedly already working with NGOs to rally public support for the elections and possibly establish a new pro-American political party. This push for elections, which would take place under martial law, raises questions about Ukraine's sovereignty and the extent of U.S. influence over its future. With Zelensky’s government facing mounting internal and external pressures, the stakes for Ukraine's leadership and its relationship with the West are higher than ever.

The Kremlin has strongly refuted recent claims suggesting that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin had spoken in recent days, calling the reports "pure fiction." Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov dismissed the allegations, which had been reported by The Washington Post and Reuters, labelling them as a "complete lie." According to these reports, Trump had supposedly urged Putin not to escalate the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Peskov mocked the rumours, describing the information as "false" and criticised the quality of such reports being published by reputable outlets. He further stated that, as of now, there were no concrete plans for Putin to engage in talks with Trump, despite earlier reports hinting at potential discussions between the two leaders.

In a high-stakes operation, Russian security services have thwarted an attempt by Ukrainian intelligence to hijack a Mi-8MTPR-1 electronic warfare helicopter. The plot was uncovered by a Russian pilot, who was offered a large bribe and a complex escape route in exchange for betraying his country. The Ukrainian agent, who went by the name 'Sergey,' also advised the pilot to poison his fellow crew members or use a weapon to ensure the success of the hijacking. The pilot, trained to recognize security threats, reported the contact to his superiors, and the situation was turned into a counter-operation by Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB).

In a dramatic shift, Qatar has pulled out as a key mediator in the Gaza ceasefire talks, citing Hamas's refusal to negotiate in good faith. This decision comes after intense pressure from the U.S. and Trump’s administration, which had made it clear that Hamas’s continued presence in Doha was no longer acceptable. Qatar informed both Israel and Hamas that it could no longer facilitate negotiations under these conditions. The move marks a significant turning point in Middle Eastern diplomacy, as Qatar, once a key mediator, distances itself from Hamas while signaling its readiness to re-engage only if both sides show a sincere willingness to negotiate. The pressure from the U.S. on Qatar to close Hamas’s office in Doha underscores the shifting dynamics of the region's diplomatic landscape.
