Trump threatens Iran with 'far worse' attack over nuclear deal
U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stark warning to Iran, threatening a military strike "far worse" than previous actions if Tehran refuses to negotiate a new nuclear deal that excludes weapons development.

Starmer meets Xi in Beijing to reset UK-China ties
In the first visit by a British Prime Minister to China since 2018, Keir Starmer met with President Xi Jinping in Beijing on Thursday to discuss deepening economic cooperation and resetting diplomatic relations.

Israel buries final hostage as Gaza 'painful chapter' closes
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the end of a "painful chapter" as Israel buried Ran Gvili, the last remaining hostage recovered from Gaza, fulfilling a key condition of the U.S.-brokered peace deal agreed last October. The 24-year-old police officer, whose remains were returned alongside 20 living hostages earlier this week, was laid to rest in a ceremony attended by hundreds, marking a moment of national closure that paves the way for the reopening of the Rafah crossing and the next phase of the ceasefire agreement.
Kremlin guarantees Zelenskyy's safety for Moscow talks
The Kremlin has reiterated its invitation for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to visit Moscow for peace negotiations, with aide Yury Ushakov assuring that his safety would be guaranteed. While Russian forces continued overnight with drone and missile strikes on Ukrainian cities, Moscow insisted that any high-level meeting must be meticulously prepared to yield concrete results. Also the Kremlin dismissed Zelenskyy’s counter-proposal for President Vladimir Putin to visit Kyiv as unfeasible due to the International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant against the Russian leader.
