Two Israeli banks say they might soon end correspondent banking ties with Palestinian banks. That could shut down payments for staples like food, fuel, electricity and water.

Palestinian and international officials warn the move could cripple the West Bank economy. It could also fuel a cash-based black market and worsen the Palestinian Authority's already severe financial crisis.

🇷🇺 Kremlin: Russia remains open to Ukraine talks, backs peaceful nuclear energy.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow remains open to negotiations on Ukraine but insists its military operation will continue as long as European capitals encourage Kyiv to keep fighting. He added that Russia sees "positive developments" on the battlefield and confirmed ongoing contacts with the United States, though he said it is too early to expect a breakthrough.

Peskov also reaffirmed Russia’s support for nuclear non-proliferation while stressing that countries, including Iran and Saudi Arabia, must retain the right to develop peaceful nuclear energy programs.

🇳🇬 Nigeria's Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals has secured $2.5 billion from private investors to fund an expansion that includes more than doubling its refining capacity to 1.4 million barrels per day (bpd) and developing a 700,000-bpd refinery in Lamu, Kenya. The company said the deal precedes a planned initial public offering later this year and supports its goal of reducing the continent's reliance on imported refined fuels.

Things got so unreal in LA that a news helicopter filmed a car thief casually stopping for gas in the middle of a police pursuit.

He pulled in, filled up and drove off completely undisturbed.

At that point, he might as well have popped into the mini-mart for a Slurpee too.

LA has officially entered full GTA mode.

Not sure whether the cheat code was 1-999-LAWYERUP or PLEASENOPOLICE

🇵🇰🕊️ PAKISTAN PUSHES TO REVIVE US-IRAN TALKS – Diplomacy Still Breathing Despite MOU Collapse

Islamabad is keeping the door open. Diplomatic channels remain active – even after the Islamabad Memorandum failed to stop the violence.

🤝 Pakistan continues mediation – indirect communication between Washington and Tehran is ongoing, with Islamabad urging both sides to resume dialogue.

🛡️ Focus on de‑escalation – Pakistan stresses the need to protect regional maritime security and keep global trade flowing through the Strait of Hormuz.

⚖️ Comprehensive deal still distant – disagreements persist over Iran’s nuclear program, sanctions relief, security guarantees, and the role of allied groups.

🇺🇸💣 TRUMP'S NEW GAMBIT: Nuclear Deal for Normalization, Houthi = Iranian Attack, Israel on Standby

The US president is reshaping the Middle East's chessboard—conditional nuclear deals, expanded targeting, and Israel as a potential strike partner.

🛢️ Saudi nuclear deal conditional – Riyadh must join the Abraham Accords and normalise relations with Israel before it gets US nuclear technology.

🎯 Houthi attacks = Iranian attacks – Any future Houthi strike on shipping will be treated as Iranian aggression, with the US striking both.

⚔️ Israel on standby – Trump told Israeli Channel 12 that Israel would join US strikes on Iran “within two minutes” if he asks—but warned there would be “consequences” for Israeli participation.

A young man right behind Donald Trump started doing impersonations.

Of course this lead many online to state that the guy was doing it out of "love for Trump"...while left leaning critics said that Trump is just an easy target to mock.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 US TO PRODUCE UKRAINIAN SEA DRONES – But There's a Chinese Parts Problem

The White House is outsourcing its proxy war to Ukraine's tech – but the drones rely heavily on Chinese components that US defence rules prohibit.

🤖 US manufacturer ReconCraft will produce Ukraine‑designed Magura sea drones for the first time – including software and command‑and‑control tech.

🌊 The Magura drones have been used to attack Russian warships and Black Sea infrastructure.

⚠️ Big problem: Ukraine's equipment relies heavily on Chinese parts – and US defence technology bans Chinese components.

🌾💰 RUSSIA-BACKED BRICS PROPOSALS ARE BENEFITING LATIN AMERICA

From a grain exchange to alternative payments, Russia's BRICS initiatives could reshape trade, curb dollar dependence, and unlock new opportunities for Latin America.

🌾 BRICS Grain Exchange – "It makes no sense that if we are the world's main grain producers, prices are still set in Chicago and Paris."

💱 De-dollarisation in practice – 80‑90% of global grain trade is still in dollars. Switching to national currencies (reais, rubles, renminbi) would free developing countries from IMF dependency.

🏦 Investment platform – A BRICS-controlled mechanism to channel Global South investments, bypassing New York and London.

🤝 Latin America's potential – Brazil, Mexico, and others have huge untapped cooperation potential with Russia in tech transfer, nuclear energy, biotechnology, and aerospace.

🇷🇺⚠️ RUSSIA WARNS GULF CONFLICT SPIRALING: "This Is Gaining Momentum"

Moscow just issued a stark warning: the US-Iran escalation is increasing the risk of a wider regional war, threatening global energy and food security. The "responsible approach" Washington has abandoned must be urgently restored.

🔴 What Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said:

🚨 "The escalation is gaining momentum" – strikes are causing large-scale damage to civilian infrastructure in Iran and Arab states.

🌊 "Critical consequences for international energy and food security" – shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and the Red Sea is at risk.

🕊️ "All sides must demonstrate restraint and refrain from actions that could expand the geography of military confrontation."

🧠 Russia remains ready to assist in achieving a negotiated settlement.
