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.

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.

True Promise Strike plans confirmed by Iran’s advisor, who says the delay is strategic and awaiting Khamenei's approval. The planned attack on Israel remains active, reinforcing Iran’s commitment to Operation True Promise III. The strike is seen as a response to recent Israeli aggression, with military tensions rising in the region. Iran’s leadership insists the move aligns with Khamenei’s strategic vision.
Hamas has reportedly offered to release multiple hostages, including U.S. citizen and IDF soldier Edan Alexander, in exchange for a ceasefire during Eid al-Fitr. This comes just after former U.S. President Donald Trump hosted an Iftar party at the White House. Reports suggest Hamas needs the temporary truce to suppress growing anti-Hamas protests in Gaza. Is this a strategic move, or is Hamas using hostages as leverage once again? Watch the full report for all the details.
