[ BREAKING ] Reports of a coup in Guinea-Bissau surged after gunfire hit the area around the presidential palace as the country waited for election results. President Umaro Sissoco Embalo says he was arrested in his office in an operation led by the army chief of staff.
The shots forced residents and drivers to flee, cutting through a city already bracing for another power struggle. The incident came only three days after the vote.
Both Embalo and opposition candidate Fernando Dias have declared victory, escalating fears of a manufactured crisis. The main opposition PAIGC was barred from the ballot. Critics claim this exclusion shaped the entire vote and concentrated power inside a narrow political field.

[ BREAKING ] A coup attempt is unfolding in Guinea-Bissau after soldiers detained President Umaro Sissoco Embaló in the capital, Bissau. Embaló says he was held at the presidential palace around midday as armed units surrounded the compound.
Shots were heard across central Bissau as soldiers took positions near key institutions. The military leadership later announced a “suspension of the electoral process” and claimed it had assumed “total control of the country.”
The coup attempt stems from a disputed election whose final results have not yet been announced. Both Embaló and opposition candidate Fernando Dias have claimed victory.
Tensions were sharpened long before the ballots were counted. The Supreme Court barred Domingos Simões Pereira — the leading opposition figure from PAIGC, which led Guinea-Bissau’s anti-colonial struggle — from running, a move that fueled accusations of manipulation.
Embaló’s foreign policy has been openly multi-aligned, split between long-standing Western partners and ties with Beijing and Moscow.

[ NEW ] Israel has reportedly offered Palestinian fighters trapped in Rafah’s tunnels a deal to “emerge if they surrender and agree to be transferred to Israeli prisons,” according to Israel’s Channel 12. The proposal was relayed through mediators after Hamas urged international actors to pressure Israel “to release the fighters and guarantee them safe passage from Israeli-controlled areas.”
In Rafah, multiple clashes have reportedly erupted between Palestinian fighters and Israeli forces as fighters attempted to surface from the tunnels. Israeli troops have repeatedly violated the ceasefire, striking residential neighborhoods in response to the confrontations. Hamas says it has no communication with the trapped fighters, as Rafah remains completely severed from the rest of the Gaza Strip.
Israeli reports claim the fighters would become “eligible for release and relocation after a period of detention.” Rights groups and local accounts, however, point to the dire conditions inside Israeli prisons and interrogation centers, where thousands of Palestinians have faced enforced disappearance, deadly torture, and widespread violations of basic human rights.
Hamas maintains that the ongoing siege, killings, and arrests of resistance fighters inside Rafah’s tunnels amount to a further breach of the ceasefire. Watch here to learn more about the Palestinian fighters trapped in Rafah’s tunnels.

Central Asia is a hidden battleground that even the world’s biggest powers can’t ignore. From Washington to Moscow and Beijing, everyone is quietly vying for influence over this land of uranium, pipelines, minerals, and hydropower.
Yet despite the wealth beneath their feet, ordinary people see little of the profit, while their countries become a chessboard for global ambitions. Central Asia’s hidden riches are able to shape the world’s balance of power in ways few realize.

[ BREAKING] General Horta Nta Na Man was sworn in as Guinea Bissau’s transitional president. Soldiers in Bissau installed the general after announcing the removal of President Umaro Sissoco Embalo in a coup. The military leadership calls itself the High Military Command for the Restoration of Order.
The takeover came hours before provisional election results were due in a race defined by the clash between President Umaro Sissoco Embalo and challenger Fernando Dias. Officers present the move as a response to disorder in a country repeatedly exposed to foreign interests and cocaine routes.
Local voices say the coup may have been engineered to keep the ruling elite in place, but the real drivers remain unclear as the country waits for the next hours to show the balance of power. Borders are closed and a mandatory curfew holds across the West African state.

[ NEW ] Amnesty International warns that “Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza continues unabated despite the ceasefire.” The rights group says that, despite the release of all living Israeli captives, Israeli authorities are still committing genocide by “deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about the physical destruction of Palestinians.”
A new report released earlier today provides a legal analysis of the ongoing genocide, drawing on testimonies from local residents, medical staff, and humanitarian workers. Agnès Callamard, secretary-general of Amnesty International, said: “The world must not be fooled. Israel’s genocide is not over.”
Since the October 10 “ceasefire,” Israel has repeatedly violated the deal—more than 500 times in seven weeks—killing at least 347 Palestinians and injuring 889. Among the violations, the rights group cites ongoing airstrikes and the obstruction of humanitarian aid and services.

Gaza keeps striving for hope and life against all odds. Amid widespread destruction, ongoing airstrikes, and a dire humanitarian crisis, children are finding relief in martial arts.
Sports coach Hassan Al-Ra’i is training around 200 girls and boys from displaced camps, running a program of mental care through sport. According to him, “When a child practices a sport that gives them a feeling of strength and life, their self-esteem grows.”
The UN children’s agency UNICEF estimates that more than 64,000 children have been killed or injured in Gaza. Psychologists warn that over 80 percent of Gaza’s children now show symptoms of severe trauma.
Therapists treating traumatized children say mental trauma is often accompanied by physical symptoms, including headaches, stomach aches, bone pain, hair loss, vitiligo, and weakened immunity.

This is the dark, true history of “Thanksgiving.”
Today, Americans across the United States are celebrating the colonial tradition, a holiday built on a lie glossing over the annihilation of indigenous Americans following the arrival of European settlers.
In US folklore, the “First Thanksgiving” is often portrayed as a friendly harvest celebration where English settlers and Native Americans came together in 1621.
Not only did this event in history not take place as portrayed today, but there is also no official national day in the US specifically designated to commemorate the extermination of millions of Natives.

[ BREAKING ] Israeli forces have released nurse Tasneem al-Hams, the daughter of imprisoned doctor Marwan al-Hams, in the Gaza Strip. Tasneem had been abducted outside the field clinic where she worked in the Al-Mawasi area.
Her abduction took place 70 days after her father’s. Doctor Marwan al-Hams, Director of Field Hospitals at the Ministry of Health, had been abducted in a similar manner. According to witnesses, a small truck carrying four armed men and a driver in civilian clothing blocked Tasneem’s path, assaulted her, and forcibly pulled her into the vehicle as she headed to work.
The gunmen fired into the air to disperse residents who tried to intervene before fleeing toward northern Rafah Governorate, an area under Israeli military control.

[ NEW ] Coup deposed president Umaro Sissoco Embaló has left Guinea-Bissau, Senegal confirms. He arrived in Dakar on a plane chartered by the Senegalese government after negotiations over his brief detention in Bissau.
Embaló was removed from power after a military takeover on Wednesday, triggered by the unresolved presidential vote. Opposition figures said the operation looked staged to shield him from an electoral defeat and block the release of official results.
A new military chief now holds authority in Bissau and has announced a transition. His leadership over state institutions places the transition firmly under military control and sidelines any immediate civilian challenge.

Happy birthday to the co father of Marxism, Friedrich Engels. But did you know that many people completely misread this key figure in human history?
Modern historians make it seem like Engels and his close friend and comrade Karl Marx spent their lives sitting in universities writing books, but their work was written in the trenches of class struggle.
Born in 1820, Engels was not even 30 when the German Revolution of 1848 broke out. Marx and Engels first worked as journalists who backed armed revolutionary organisations against the monarchy before they took up weapons themselves.
Over the later course of their lives, Engels and Marx built the theory of scientific socialism. After Marx’s death in 1883, Engels finished the last two volumes of the landmark work “Das Kapital.”
At the funeral, Engels said of Marx, “His name will live on through the centuries, and so will his work.” A few years after Engels’ own death, his and Marx’s writings became the blueprint for the communist revolution in Russia that changed the world and triggered a chain reaction for liberation movements across the globe.
Marx and Engels wrote from the viewpoint of organizers speaking to people who were in the middle of struggle themselves. Large parts of modern academia strip that fight out of their work, turning Marxism into theory with no living struggle behind it.

Armed guerillas in southern Syria opened fire against Israeli occupation soldiers during a military raid. At least six Israelis were injured, three of them seriously, in clashes with Syrian fighters who confronted the incursion.
An Israeli patrol entered the village at dawn to arrest a group of people. The patrol was reportedly caught off guard by the villagers’ response, as residents refused to remain idle. Warplanes and tanks opened fire to allow the Israeli patrol to withdraw, resulting in the death of at least 13 Syrians and over 25 injured.
Syria’s Foreign Ministry condemned Israel’s incursion into Beit Jinn, calling it a “full-fledged war crime.” Despite the condemnation, no official Syrian government forces have been deployed to stop the ongoing Israeli raids and attacks in the area.

“Yes, our skin is Black, but we are part of this world.” With these words, Darfur governor Minni Arko Minnawi addressed displaced Sudanese families gathered in El-Afadh camp, accusing global powers of enabling the violence that drove them away from their homes.
Minnawi leads the Sudan Liberation Movement – Minnawi faction (SLM-MM) and serves as governor of the Darfur region under Sudan’s transitional arrangements. His movement is part of the Darfur Joint Protection Force that fights alongside the army against the UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF), though they remain an independent armed movement outside the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) command.
He accused the UAE and other foreign actors of supporting the militias responsible for mass killings in Darfur. The remarks came as civilians fleeing the fighting in El Fasher continue to arrive in Northern State, after the city’s takeover by RSF fighters and allied militias.

Why did Japanese communists fight in Palestine?
On the International Day of Solidarity with Palestine, we present an often-overlooked part of the liberation struggle’s history.
The Japanese Red Army shows how globally intertwined revolutionary struggles are in the age of imperialism. The history of the JRA is not a minor footnote—it is still held in high regard by Palestinian forces as a prime example of international solidarity.
What lessons does the JRA’s struggle offer today? Share your thoughts in the comments.
