British rapper Lowkey presses Piers Morgan to condemn Rupert Murdoch over Netanyahu funding.

Piers refuses and pushes back:

Lowkey: It seems he funded Benjamin Netanyahu. That’s an issue.

Morgan: It’s not an issue for me. You hate Israel so much…

Lowkey: My loyalty is to people under the bombs.

I do not view myself as loyal to somebody that would end up on a list of potential funders of Benjamin Netanyahu.

Flights are continuing in the UAE despite escalating safety risks.

Dozens of planes (39 in Dubai alone) landed or took off within minutes of missile warnings. Across UAE airports, that number rises to ~130 within a 10-minute window.

Not all attacks are officially flagged, meaning planes may be exposed without clear alerts.

At least five planes have already been damaged on the ground, including an Emirates A380 and a Saudia A321 in Dubai.

Pilots are increasingly raising serious concerns, with some flights nearly diverted due to low fuel, and others refusing to operate altogether or invoking “fear clauses” to avoid flying.
