The US military on Saturday conducted a drill in the Venezuelan capital of Caracas that rehearsed a potential emergency and evacuation at its embassy.
The exercise, which had been authorized by the Venezuelan authorities, is the first US military drill held in the country after Washington kidnapped President Nicolas Maduro and his wife.
The drill involved two USMC MV-22B Osprey aircraft, which landed near the US Embassy, as well as naval vessels that entered Venezuelan waters in the Caribbean. … Full article
Pakistan now receives up to 80% of its military imports from China — a striking reversal of the Cold War era, when the United States served as Islamabad’s primary arms supplier.
How and why did this happen? The key reason was US sanctions, retired Pakistan Air Force Captain Sultan M. Hali told Sputnik.
During Pakistan’s conflicts with India in 1965 and 1971, the United States imposed sanctions on both sides — but Pakistan was more affected since it relied heavily on Western equipment. China stepped in to help at that critical moment.
In the post-Cold War period, repeated US sanctions again disrupted Pakistan’s access to critical hardware.
Beijing, by contrast, offered technology transfer — a step Western suppliers rarely take, and when they do, it comes with a web of restrictive conditions.
Pakistan has now inducted a wide spectrum of Chinese systems, including fighter jets, air defense systems, early warning aircraft, frigates, and submarines.

Former European Council president Charles Michel warned Friday that perceived double standards in foreign policy are undermining the European Union’s credibility, cautioning against what he described as a “temptation to appease” the US and Israel.
Speaking at the Delphi Economic Forum in Athens, Michel said inconsistencies in applying EU principles risk weakening the bloc’s authority on the global stage.
“Double standards are a puzzle that undermine the European credibility and authority. And sometimes, let’s be honest, I have the impression that there’s a temptation to appease United States, to appease Israel, and to be not far from it arrogant with the rest of the world,” he said.
Michel stressed the need for “a more serious and credible approach” to international relations, warning that ambiguity toward partners who do not adhere to rules-based principles damages the EU’s soft power and credibility. … Full article

TEHRAN – The issues of managing the Strait of Hormuz are not included in the memorandum of understanding between Iran and the United States, they will be resolved by the coastal countries, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said on Monday.
“Concerning the Strait of Hormuz in the memorandum, we are not discussing the details of the agreement. The question on how the strait will be managed is being decided by the coastal countries,” Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said.
Other Statements:
- Unilateral European action against Iran is impossible
- Many of the international community’s troubles could have been avoided had the European Union adopted a responsible stance
- If the EU had respected international law and the UN Charter, the current standoff over the Strait of Hormuz might not have erupted, and the US and Israel should be condemned
- The Strait of Hormuz remained open prior to the attack on Iran that triggered the present crisis
- Negotiations are focused on ending the war, and currently the nuclear issue is not under discussion

US President Donald Trump has told several Arab and Muslim leaders that he expects them to establish formal relations with Israel in exchange for a ceasefire deal with Iran to end the war, according to American officials.
Axios, citing the officials, said that Trump made the demand during a phone conversation on Saturday with leaders from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, and Bahrain.
According to the same sources, all eight leaders expressed support for the potential agreement with Tehran during the call.
“We are with you on this deal,” one official was quoted as telling Trump, according to the report.
Another official familiar with the conversation said the US president indicated that he would next speak with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and hoped to bring him into a joint call with the same group of Arab and Muslim leaders in the future.
Trump also pushed those countries that have not yet joined the so-called Abraham Accords – a series of 2020 US-brokered normalization deals with Israel signed under the Trump administration – to do so and establish formal ties with the Tel Aviv regime, the officials added.
Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Pakistan currently maintain no official diplomatic relations with Israel.
One of the officials told Axios that there was “silence on the line” after Trump’s demand, prompting the president to joke and ask “if they are still there.” … continue

In one of its most brazen disinformation efforts in years, the British tabloid The Daily Mail has published a fake news story claiming that an Israeli woman who was permitted to leave by Hamas militants only avoided being sexually assaulted by showing her captors her scar.
According to the woman in question, May Hayat, she had been taken prisoner by “terrorists” at the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023, when she began to detect “an energy and look in their eyes that every woman knows what’s going to happen next.”
However, she insists the men declined to rape her because Muslims subscribe to a belief system under which “a scar like [hers] means a strong woman,” and “if something happened to her because of them, the 72 virgins they are promised will not come looking for them in heaven.”
This claim contradicts all known Islamic jurisprudence, including the mainstream Sunni doctrine espoused by Hamas – which forbids fighters (and men more generally) from carrying out sexual violence against women, and which does not in any way single out women with scars for special treatment.
But The Daily Mail article, entitled “October 7 survivor reveals how a childhood scar saved her from Hamas terrorists,” fully endorses Hayat’s extraordinarily suspicious claim. Hayat, the outlet states credulously, was later “told that such scars have a spiritual significance in the eyes of the terrorists.” … continue

A British rights group, Right to Protest, has issued a press statement announcing that Dr Ranjeet Brar, a vascular surgeon, is bringing a judicial review to challenge the misuse of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism by public bodies – notable among them is King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
On 6th April 2026, Dr Ranjeet Brar, was suspended by the Trust following his speech at a memorial for the 186 children killed in a school strike in Minab, Iran. In that speech, he criticised Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the policies of the Israeli, US and British governments.
Shortly after, Dr Ranjeet Brar was suspended from work. Dr Brar believes the IHRA definition of antisemitism was used against him to effect his suspension. Dr Brar is one of many who have been penalised for making public statements against Israel.
The Right to Protest said this is not an isolated incident. “Across the NHS, universities, and other public bodies, a non-statutory definition is being weaponised to silence lawful political speech against the State of Israel. Criticism of Israel is being mischaracterised as hate. Hate crime laws are being applied to protect Israel. Healthcare professionals, academics, and citizens who speak critically about Israel or express solidarity with Palestinians face disciplinary threats, censorship, and the destruction of their careers.” … continue

GAZA – Five Palestinian civilians were martyred, including three from the same family, and others were injured in Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip on Sunday, amid ceasefire violations persisting for the 227th consecutive day.
According to local sources, Samih Darduna was martyred this morning by Israeli sniper fire in Jabalia refugee camp, north of Gaza.
The body of eight-year-old Hani Shakshak was also found inside a tent after he went missing yesterday following Israeli strikes on the al-Tawam area, northwest of Gaza.
Earlier at dawn, an airstrike targeted an apartment in an-Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, killing Mohamed Abu Malouh, 38, his wife Alaa Zaqlan, 36, and their one-year-old son Osama.
Israeli aircraft also launched a raid on Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, igniting fires at the bombed site and causing extensive material damage near Yafa Hospital.

Officials said the UAV was targeted by a specialized defense system whose technical specifications have not yet been disclosed.

The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy has reported an increased rate of cargo transit via the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf, pointing to improved security in the key waterway under its control arrangement.
The IRGC Navy’s Public Relations Department said in a statement on Sunday that a total of 33 ships had passed through the Strait of Hormuz in the past 24 hours.
That marks a nearly 50% increase compared to figures announced earlier this week and a major rise from the numbers reported in the early days of a US-Israeli aggression on Iran in early March, which prompted the IRGC to take control of the strait and impose restrictions on transits.
Iranian state TV also said in a report that ships from China, India, and Pakistan recorded the highest number of passages through the Strait of Hormuz, thanks to their coordination with Iranian authorities.
It added that some 240 ships are waiting for clearance from Iran to pass the strait.
The IRGC Navy said that ships that were allowed through the strait over the past 24 hours included oil tankers, container ships, and other commercial vessels, adding that all of them had been cleared to pass after obtaining the required permits from the force under its security arrangements for the waterway. … Full article

Ukraine’s General Staff is pushing a false claim – that its May 22 strike on a high school building and student dormitory in Starobelsk, Lugansk People’s Republic actually targeted the headquarters of Russia’s elite Rubikon drone unit. The Ukrainian media is amplifying this lie.
Zelensky’s military – notorious for deliberately targeting civilians – claimed in a statement that it only strikes military infrastructure. But there are no military facilities near the dormitory hit in this attack. The drone strike killed 21 students and injured dozens more.
Russia has provided full access to the site of the attack to foreign journalists and international observers.
Journalists from 19 countries, including NATO and EU members, have arrived in Starobelsk at the invitation of the Russian Foreign Ministry.

The strike came after Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the Defense Ministry to “submit proposals” for a response to a Ukrainian drone attack on a teacher training college dormitory in the Lugansk People’s Republic, which left 21 people dead and 42 injured, mostly teenage girls.
The bombardment targeted the Ukrainian military’s command and control facilities, air bases, and the country’s defense industry enterprises, the ministry said. No strikes had been planned or carried out against civilian infrastructure, it added. … continue

Claims that President Donald Trump exempted “Israel” from commitments under a potential agreement with Iran appear to be baseless, Fars News Agency revealed, based on a review of the final draft text.
Fars reported that The New York Times had alleged “Israel” was granted an exemption from the obligations outlined in the emerging draft MoU with Tehran.
However, an examination of the explicit wording of the prospective agreement shows the opposite. According to the draft text, should the agreement be finalized, the United States and its allies would be bound not to launch any form of aggression against Iran or its allies.
In return, Iran has committed that neither it nor its allies would carry out preemptive military strikes against the United States and its allies.
Consequently, the media outlet’s claim that “Israel’s” regime is exempt from any commitments toward Iran directly contradicts the explicit provisions of the final agreement, rendering the assertion false and unfounded. … continue

The Israeli navy does not ask for your passport before opening fire. They don’t care whether your country’s government has diplomatic relations with Tel Aviv or not. They also don’t care if your country is secretly starting to soften its attitude toward Israel for the sake of a more comfortable relationship.
They capture, detain, injure, even kill – then wait for the world to look away.
The “Global Sumud Flotilla,” a global humanitarian activist movement to send food to Gaza by sea, has proven one thing indisputably: any country that sends its citizens on humanitarian missions to Gaza must accept insults from Israel.
South Korea, Greece, France, Brazil, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, and Sweden all have good relations with Israel. But their citizens are still detained by Israel in international waters.
Similar missions have been carried out for over a decade, and they always end the same way: activists are arrested or even killed. In the 2010 Mavi Marmara tragedy, for instance, ten Turkish activists were killed by regime forces, yet no meaningful accountability ever followed.
The pattern is very clear. Israel operates on the assumption that the world will condemn and then forget. And so far, that assumption has proven to be true, at least until recently. … continue

Tehran and Washington are in the final stages of drafting a framework agreement through Pakistani mediation aimed at ending the ongoing war and establishing de-escalation arrangements, sources told Al Mayadeen.
According to the sources, the proposed arrangement is not a final agreement but rather a memorandum of understanding designed to outline immediate political, military, and maritime steps following months of regional escalation.
The sources added that the memorandum does not include any clause related to Iran’s nuclear file, which is expected to be addressed in a separate track after the framework is signed.
Ending the US blockade, release of frozen assets
The understanding reportedly focuses on ending the war, implementing de-escalation measures, and facilitating maritime navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, a key chokepoint affected by months of tension. Sources told Al Mayadeen that the memorandum includes the withdrawal of the US fleet from areas surrounding Iran and the end of the American naval blockade imposed during the war.
It also includes the release of half of Iran’s frozen assets, estimated at around $12 billion, alongside a 30-day period to reach a separate nuclear agreement after the signing of the framework. … Full article

Amaryllis Fox Kennedy, a top US intelligence official, is stepping down this week from two key posts due to her opposition to US President Donald Trump’s war on Iran, the Washington Post reported on 22 May.
Kennedy, a former undercover CIA officer in East Asia and a daughter-in-law of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.), is a close ally of Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard.
“Five people familiar with the matter cited her disagreement with Trump’s war on Iran as a reason for her resignation,” the Post wrote.
Kennedy currently holds three intelligence posts simultaneously. She is resigning as deputy to Gabbard at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and as associate director at the Office of Management and Budget, where she oversaw classified intelligence budgets.
Kennedy hopes to remain in her role as a member of President Trump’s Intelligence Advisory Board, which gives the president independent advice on the legality and effectiveness of US spy programs.
Her resignation follows that of Joe Kent, who served under DNI Gabbard as the director of the National Counterterrorism Center. Kent, who is also a former CIA officer, resigned in March, publicly citing his opposition to the war in Iran as the reason for his departure.
Kent has since stated in interviews that the war is being fought on behalf of Israel and that Iran does not pose a threat to the US, as Trump has claimed. […]
The sources speaking with The Post said that Kennedy pushed to declassify historical documents about the assassinations of her father-in-law’s uncle and father, president John F. Kennedy, and senator Robert F. Kennedy, as well as Martin Luther King Jr.
Before working under Gabbard, Kennedy expressed opposition to US intervention abroad, including against US involvement in the war between Ukraine and Russia and any war on Iran. – Full article

Twenty-seven countries have moved to activate emergency World Bank financing mechanisms since the US-Israeli war on Iran began in late February, Reuters reported on 22 May.
Three nations have already received approval for fast-tracked funding, while the other 24 are in the process of completing administrative procedures.
Kenya and Iraq have publicly confirmed they are seeking emergency World Bank assistance, with Nairobi facing surging domestic fuel prices and Baghdad grappling with severely diminished oil revenues due to disruptions in maritime exports.
The 27 nations are drawn from a pool of 101 countries with access to pre-arranged contingent financing, including 54 that are enrolled in the World Bank’s Rapid Response Option, a mechanism that allows sovereign borrowers to immediately redirect up to 10 percent of their undisbursed project balances.
World Bank President Ajay Banga has outlined a three-tier funding structure.
Between $20 billion and $25 billion is available immediately through existing crisis instruments, rising to $60 billion within six months if the bank reorients parts of its broader portfolio, with longer-term structural changes capable of pushing the total to around $100 billion. … Full article

… A lengthy essay published April 29th by Militarnyi, Ukraine’s most prominent military news site, lays bare Kiev’s brutal cloak-and-dagger strategy in Mali and beyond. Headlined Islamist Offensive in Mali: The Prospect of a Syrian Scenario, it details how the successes of Ukraine’s Al Qaeda army in Mali – including Camara’s assassination – are part of a wider military and intelligence operation concerned with “dislodging Russian-Chinese influence from the region” altogether. Damascus being overwhelmed by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham in mere days in December 2024 was cited as inspiration. […]
Kiev’s demonic alliance with Al-Qaeda in the Sahel amply demonstrates how her CIA and MI6-assisted military and intelligence capabilities definitively represent a “growing danger”, to average citizens the world over. Kiev is openly plotting to replicate HTS’ violent takeover of Damascus, first in Mali, then in Burkina Faso and Niger. Militarised, extremist-occupied territories are to multiply, while economic warfare impoverishes and enfeebles the military governments, damaging their domestic popularity. Then, they can be brought to heel via forced capitulation, or outright regime change.
It’s been publicly confirmed Kiev’s clandestine assistance was instrumental in toppling Assad. Now, as Militarnyi openly brags, Ukraine’s alliance with Al-Qaeda in Mali is helping drive “a revival of contacts” between AES and the West. This has led to “the first publicly confirmed US diplomatic engagement” with all three Alliance members, in March. Thanks to the CIA’s covert assistance, and her experiences fighting Russia, militarised Ukraine possesses the capabilities to train its proxy crosshairs globally, with devastating effect. A new World War has begun. – Full article

Czech President Petr Pavel has urged NATO to “show its teeth” in response to what he described as Russian “provocations” on the bloc’s eastern flank.
Pavel’s remarks follow a series of Ukrainian drone incursions into NATO airspace in Europe. Since mid-March, long-range UAVs have repeatedly crossed Baltic and Nordic airspace en route to targets in northwestern Russia, particularly oil facilities in Leningrad Region. The incursions prompted fighter jet deployments, and some drones crashed inside NATO states, causing damage.
Moscow has accused European NATO members of quietly allowing Kiev to use their airspace for attacks on Russian territory, but Western officials deny this, instead blaming Russia for the incursions and claiming that Russian electronic warfare systems may have redirected the drones to stray into NATO airspace.
In an interview with The Guardian published Friday, Pavel echoed the accusations, claiming that Russia was intentionally staging “provocations” operating just below the threshold that would trigger NATO’s collective defense clause, Article 5. He also claimed that Russian military officials openly mock the bloc’s indecision during such incidents, and called for “decisive enough, potentially even asymmetric” responses to counter Moscow’s actions. … continue

A total of 16 people were killed in the Ukrainian attack on a college dormitory in Starobelsk in the Lugansk People’s Republic, the Russian Emergencies Ministry said on Saturday.
“A total of 58 people were injured, 16 of whom died,” the statement read.
The death toll increased as bodies of four more victims have been recovered from the rubble at the site of the dormitory collapse, the ministry added.
According to preliminary estimates, five people still remain buried under the rubble, the ministry said.
On Friday, Lugansk People’s Republic head Leonid Pasechnik said that Ukraine had attacked an academic building and dormitory at the Starobelsk Professional College, which is part of the Lugansk State Pedagogical University. There were 86 students and an employee in the building at the time.

Moscow received information that Tokyo had prohibited Japanese journalists from covering developments related to the Ukrainian strike on a college in Starobelsk in the Lugansk People’s Republic, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Saturday.
Earlier in the day, Zakharova told reporters that Russia had begun organizing a visit of foreign journalists accredited in Moscow to sites affected by Ukrainian strikes on the college in Starobelsk.
“We received an official refusal from the BBC to take part in this trip. They did not even find any excuses; they simply said they would not go – it is their conscious decision. They will not film what is happening there. CNN are on holiday, but we also received information that Tokyo, a relevant official structure, has effectively prohibited Japanese journalists accredited in Russia from participating in any coverage of the situation around Starobelsk,” Zakharova said.
This is representative of so-called Western democracy and freedom of speech, she added.
