WATCH | Democrats’ Bid to Block Arms Sales to Israel Fails as Gaza Critique Gains Momentum
Senate Democrats displayed growing internal division over US arms sales to Israel, with approximately one-third voting to block $1.097 billion in weapons transfers.
Led by Bernie Sanders, these progressive Democrats highlighted humanitarian concerns in Gaza, challenging the Biden administration's stance.
The votes revealed increasing tensions within the party regarding Israel's military campaign, though the resolutions were ultimately unsuccessful.
Yemen’s Houthi forces have escalated their missile campaign against Israel, successfully breaching Israeli defense systems with advanced hypersonic missiles. Between December 19 and 28, the Yemeni military launched 13 missile strikes, primarily targeting Tel Aviv, the heart of Israel’s economy. Despite Israel’s efforts to intercept these missiles, including its advanced defense systems, some strikes have hit critical civilian and military targets. A U.S. report reveals significant weaknesses in Israel’s defense capabilities, especially due to a lack of precise intelligence, and warns that Yemen's relentless attacks are putting Israel’s security under immense strain. The report also highlights the severe economic disruptions caused by the missile strikes, including the closure of the Eilat port. Israeli officials have vowed retaliation, but the situation continues to worsen as Yemeni forces remain undeterred in their operations.

The rise in both anti-Semitic and Islamophobic hate crime is "really appalling but not a surprise", says the director of policy at the Community Security Trust, a charity whose mission it is to provide safety to the UK Jewish community. Dr Dave Rich adds that the "enormous" increase has been apparent on social media and offline, exacerbated by the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7th 2023, the subsequent, ongoing war in the Middle East and the anti-immigration riots that occurred in the UK over the summer.

In a dramatic escalation of regional tensions, Yemen's Houthi forces have launched a devastating series of missile strikes against Israeli targets, executing 13 attacks over 10 days. Central to this campaign was the deployment of the advanced Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile, which struck the Negev Desert’s Nevatim Air Base, 15 kilometers southeast of Beersheba. The attack reportedly inflicted significant damage on the strategic Israeli military site

Israel launched a covert commando raid on an underground Iranian missile production facility in Syria, near Maysaf, in a high-stakes operation revealed by KAN News. The mission targeted key sites, including the Syrian Scientific Studies and Research Center and a missile production hub run by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards. The strike aimed to curb Iran’s missile program and prevent weapons from being supplied to Hezbollah. The operation, conducted with prior U.S. notification, underscores escalating regional tensions and Israel's resolve to counter perceived threats from Iran’s growing military presence in Syria.

The House passed a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown just hours before the midnight deadline. The bill extends funding through March 2025, providing disaster relief and farm aid, but excludes the debt limit suspension demanded by President-elect Trump. The bill now moves to the Senate for approval before being sent to President Biden. Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans worked to secure Democratic support, while Trump’s opposition led to changes in the bill's provisions.

As the deadline to prevent a government shutdown rapidly approaches, former President Donald Trump has dismissed a bipartisan agreement between Republicans and Democrats. Trump pushed for a controversial new deal that includes a three-month government funding extension and a two-year suspension of the debt ceiling, a proposal that was swiftly rejected by the House of Representatives. With crucial public services and federal workers at risk, Congress must act fast to avoid a shutdown. Will lawmakers come together in time to avert this crisis just days before Christmas?

In a controversial moment during his trip to Angola, President Joe Biden dodged questions from reporters regarding his recent decision to pardon his son, Hunter Biden. The pardon, covering Hunter’s actions over the past 11 years, has sparked significant political backlash, particularly from critics who point out the contradiction with Biden’s previous statements. Despite earlier promises not to intervene in Hunter's legal matters, Biden reversed his stance and granted the pardon. As reporters attempted to raise the issue during a meeting with Angolan President João Lourenço, Biden laughed off their questions, turning to the Angolan delegation and quipping, "Welcome to America." His refusal to address the matter has further fueled the controversy, casting a shadow over his final days in office.
