Foreign Secretary David Lammy announces new sanctions to target the finances of people smuggling gangs. The planned measures are intended to disrupt the flow of money and make it harder for ringleaders to profit from the deadly trade. Lammy says, "together we can strengthen borders, smash the gangs and get those with no right to be here to return to their countries".

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has raised concerns over the Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement, claiming that Hamas has violated key terms of the deal. The agreement, brokered with mediation by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar, was intended to halt hostilities, facilitate prisoner exchanges, and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. However, Netanyahu's office accused Hamas of creating a "last-minute crisis" by reneging on commitments, including vetoing the release of Palestinian prisoners convicted of murder.

The terms of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire include the release of 98 hostages, including 33 Israelis, as part of a deal brokered by the US, Qatar, and Egypt. The release will occur in phases, with 3 American-Israeli hostages also being freed. In return, Israel will release Palestinian detainees, with the number increasing for female detainees. Israel has agreed to allow significant aid into Gaza and will withdraw troops from urban areas. There are also provisions for reopening the Rafah border crossing to Egypt, which will allow displaced Palestinians to return home. The ceasefire is seen as a significant step in the ongoing conflict, but it remains to be seen how the situation will evolve, particularly in Gaza, where humanitarian needs are critical.

Three Lancashire Constabulary officers are facing disciplinary proceedings after 23-year-old mum, Kiena Dawes, took her own life following prolonged abuse by her former partner, 30-year-old Ryan Wellings. Ms Dawes was assaulted by Wellings two weeks before she died. He was arrested, and shortly afterwards, Ms Dawes reported him to the police for contacting her – a breach of his bail conditions. An officer had dismissed her complaint, and she was also urged to delete a Facebook post in which she had written about the abuse she’d endured. This all left her feeling, “unsupported” by police and she was upset that Wellings had not been, “locked up”. On Monday, Wellings was found guilty of assault and prolonged domestic abuse at Preston Crown Court but was cleared of manslaughter. Report by Jonesia.
