Algeria and Mali have each closed their airspace to flights from the other country, as the row over a drone that was shot down close to their common border escalates. On Sunday, without giving evidence, Mali accused its northern neighbour of being a sponsor and exporter of terrorism after Algeria attacked one of its drones last week. Algeria was the first to ban flights to and from Mali, then Mali later said it was doing the same to all Algerian flights "in reciprocation". Sunday's strongly worded statement from Mali's foreign ministry had challenged Algeria's earlier explanation that the unmanned surveillance aircraft had violated its airspace. The st…

"But what kind of freedom is it when 59 people are still in Hamas hell?" In recent weeks, powerful voices have joined the fight to bring home Israel's remaining hostages - those of the captives released during the latest ceasefire deal that began in January and lasted two months. Despite their ongoing trauma, frailty and grief, a number of ex-hostages have felt compelled to give their harrowing testimony on stage at demonstrations, in long TV interviews or in meetings ove…

Last year, on 17 September, at around 15:30, a pager which a nurse called Adam was given at the start of his shift at a hospital in Lebanon received a message. The devices had been distributed by Hezbollah, the Shia Muslim group, to thousands of its members, including Adam, and he said it was how he and his colleagues expected to be alerted of emergencies or a disaster. "The pager started beeping non-stop and, on the screen, it said 'alert'," Adam, who did not want to use his real name for safety reasons, said. The text appeared to have been sent by the group's leadership. To read it, he had to press two buttons, simultaneously, with both hands. Adam did it many time…

At least 27 Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli air strike on a school in northern Gaza that was serving as a shelter for displaced families, the Hamas-run health ministry says.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has reportedly issued an arrest warrant for former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, a move that has sent shockwaves through the country's political landscape.

While the ICC has not officially confirmed the issuance of the warrant, sources close to the investigation have revealed its existence, and Duterte's sudden departure to Hong Kong further fuels speculation.

A recent CNN analysis explores the growing rift between former US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, highlighting a potential shift in US support for Ukraine in the ongoing war with Russia. The analysis suggests that Trump's stance on the conflict has evolved since his previous presidency, with a more critical view of Zelensky and a potential inclination to withdraw US aid. This shift is attributed to Trump's perceived belief that Ukraine is not delivering on its promises to fight Russia effectively, and his growing frustration with the war's impact on the US economy. The analysis points to Trump's recent statements, where he has expressed …
