A severe winter storm in Gaza has led to the tragic loss of 12 lives, including children, as floods devastate makeshift camps for displaced individuals. Thousands of tents are underwater, highlighting the dire humanitarian situation.
In an unprecedented move, the UK has sanctioned two Israeli ministers, Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, over their incitement of violence and human rights abuses in Gaza. The sanctions include travel bans and asset freezes as the UK seeks to hold them accountable amidst rising tensions.
In a swift response to escalating tensions, the EU and UK have announced new sanctions targeting Russia's oil transport fleet, aiming to pressure Moscow amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. As the conflict intensifies, Ukraine continues to seek robust support from allies.
