US congressman says ‘IDF is lying’ about his detention by settlers and soldiers

Ro Khanna photo on West BankRo Khanna accused the Israeli government and military of “lying” on Sunday about the US congressman’s detention by armed settlers and Israeli soldiers during a recent visit to the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

Khanna – a California Democrat – had posted video evidence on social media of Israeli settlers and soldiers blocking the path of his convoy on Wednesday in the South Hebron hills, near the village of Zanuta, where Israelis have driven Palestinians from their homes in what Amnesty International calls a government-backed “ethnic cleansing campaign”.

During an interview with NBC News’ Meet the Press on Sunday, the California Democrat was asked about the Israeli military’s claim that its soldiers “quickly dispersed” the Israeli civilians and reopened the blocked road.

“The IDF is lying,” Khanna said, referring to the Israel Defense Forces. “What happened was unprecedented. They had violent settlers detain American citizens, including an American government official. You had these settlers brandishing M4 [rifles], kicking the tires of our van, laughing at us, mocking at us, videotaping us.

What a Monopoly importer learned when it tried to make things in the U.S.A.

MonopolyThe board game Monopoly has always taught some important economic lessons: The benefits of owning real estate. The profit potential of railroad mergers. The value of a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Now a special edition of the board game is teaching a new lesson—about how hard it is to make things in the USA.

The game is being marketed by the WS Game Company, which produces most of its high-end board games in China, just like almost every other toy maker.

After getting hit with a seven-figure tariff bill last year, CEO Jonathan Silva decided to see if it was possible to produce a profitable board game in the United States.

He opted for a custom version of Monopoly, pegged to the country's 250th birthday. But the experiment almost didn't pass go. One big problem: No dice.

2 killed in mass shooting at Canada’s largest Latin street festival in Toronto, police say

Toronto shootingTwo people were killed and several others injured after at least two shooters exchanged gunfire amid crowds of roughly 13,000 people at Canada’s biggest Latin street festival in Toronto on Saturday, police said.

A total of six people were shot, and several suspects are believed to be at large after the shooting at the Salsa on St. Clair festival, Toronto Police Service Deputy Chief Frank Barredo said at a news conference late Saturday.

Both of the deceased victims were men, Barredo said, while the four injured victims were taken to hospitals with “serious injuries.” Investigators have cordoned off three crime scenes and recovered two firearms, but there is no ongoing threat to the public, he added.

“This seemed to be an exchange of gunfire between two individuals targeting each other,” Barredo said, adding the shooting “indiscriminately put vast numbers of people in danger.”

Lindsey Graham dies at 71, Trump says he was like family: Live updates

Lindsay Graham dead at 71

South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham died from a "brief and sudden illness" on July 11, his office said in a statement. He was 71.

In his more than three decades in Washington, Graham played major roles in crafting key pieces of legislation, affecting millions of Americans' lives while also developing a reputation as a stark foreign policy hawk.

President Donald Trump, a friend of Graham's, said he spoke with the South Carolina lawmaker shortly before emergency responders arrived at his home in Washington on Saturday night. Emergency personnel said they were conducting CPR on a man suffering from cardiac arrest, according to public safety radio feeds reviewed by USA TODAY. Graham's cause of death has not been publicly confirmed.

Trump said Graham was “like a member of the family" who knew how to work with members of both political parties and loved serving in the U.S. Senate. Graham had recently returned from meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and had called Trump about the SAVE America Act, a sweeping piece of voting legislation.

The Man Who Walked Toward the "Yellow Line" in Gaza—and the Son He Carried With Him

Man who walked to the yellow lineAL-MAGHAZI REFUGEE CAMP, Gaza Strip—At midnight, Waad al-Shafi was still awake, sitting on the floor beside her 22-month-old son, Jawad. The room was small and worn down by Israeli shelling. Long cracks run across the concrete and flakes of paint hung from the corners. The dim light cast shadows on the wall behind her.

She held a cloth dampened with cool water, which she dabbed lightly on Jawad’s feet as he slept. Every few moments, she placed her hand on his chest and felt his breathing. Jawad stirred before his eyes snapped open. He let out a low whimper before the words came out in broken pieces: “Bang. Blood. Tank.”

Waad didn’t ask him what he meant. She knew. She leaned toward him and smoothed his hair with one hand, keeping the other resting on him. When his voice fell quiet again, she stayed as she was, sitting beside him, awake, watching the rise and fall of his chest.

Jawad has been this way since March 19, when his father, Osama Al-Shafi, said he was going to take his son to the store to buy candy. He lifted Jawad onto his shoulders and headed out. The store was to the west, near their home in the eastern part of Al-Maghazi refugee camp, a few hundred meters from the “yellow line.” When he left the house, his direction suddenly changed and he began wandering eastward.

‘Farcical reality’: Healthcare workers respond to targeting over pro-Palestine symbols

Health workers pro PalestineThe move to ban NHS staff from displaying political symbols in the workplace and wearing medical scrubs in protests has been widely condemned by politicians and healthcare workers, who say it is using fears of antisemitism to crack down on expressions of solidarity with Palestine. 

Middle East Eye spoke to a number of pro-Palestine NHS workers about their experience campaigning against the genocide in Gaza and the backlash they have faced from their workplace as a result.

The Mann report was commissioned by former health secretary Wes Streeting in 2025 to investigate antisemitism in the NHS.

However, the British Medical Association (BMA) noted that, although the need to combat antisemitism and racism within the NHS is vital, some of the recommendations from the report are “deeply concerning” in how they might be implemented, particularly with regard to freedom of speech and expression.

While NHS England hhttps://www.middleeasteye.net/news/farcical-reality-healthcare-workers-respond-being-targeted-displaying-pro-palestine-symbolsas adopted the guidance, it is up to individual NHS trusts to implement it.

US Senator Lindsey Graham Praises Ukrainian Drone Tech During Visit to SkyFall Plant

Graham in UkrainrAs part of his visit to Ukraine, US Senator Lindsey Graham visited one of the production locations of the Ukrainian technology-defense company SkyFall.

The senator familiarized himself with the development and manufacturing processes of the heavy bomber drones Vampire, also known as “Baba Yaga”, first-person view (FPV) drones of various modifications, and “Shahed” interceptors – P1-SUN.

The SkyFall team also presented new technological solutions that will soon appear on the battlefield. Separately, the senator was presented with the capabilities of the SkyFall Academy, which trains pilots, technicians, and instructors to work with unmanned systems.

The parties discussed the prospects of Ukrainian-American cooperation in the field of defense innovations and possible directions for a technological partnership.

Robert Reich: The Nato summit exposed the real source of Trump’s power

NAT) meetingAt the Nato summit just ended, Trump lashed out at other Nato members, saying he was “very disappointed with Nato” and asking: “Why are we spending hundreds of billions of dollars, and they’re not there for us?” He reiterated his desire to take over Greenland, blasted European energy and immigration policies, insulted Spain, and worried allies by declaring that the fighting between Kyiv and Moscow “doesn’t affect us”.

Yet throughout the proceedings, Trump was treated by other Nato powers with as much courtesy and respect as any US president has ever received from Nato – perhaps more. “It was a great meeting, there was a lot of love in that room, a lot of unity,” Trump said when it was over.

What happened? It’s important to understand the source of Trump’s power.

His power doesn’t come from his being president of the most powerful nation in the world. In fact, his arbitrary tariffs, absurd war in Iran, and outright abduction of Nicolás Maduro have reduced the US’s standing in much of the world.

Nor does his power come from his Maga base, which is now having second thoughts about supporting someone who got the US involved in another Middle Eastern war, caused prices to rise, and whose administration still refuses to release the complete Epstein files.

Family pleads for helpA mother on Friday pleaded for anyone to come forward with information about what happened to ⁠her son, Nolan Wells, a young Black man whose body was found on an island off the coast of Mississippi after he traveled there over the Fourth of July weekend with three white friends.

“We just want ⁠to know what happened and ⁠why our baby ​didn’t come home,” Christine Wonsley, choking back tears, said at a news conference about her son.

The death of Wells has become a social media flashpoint, fueled by questions about race in the US.

The body ⁠of Wells, 18, was found on 6 July on the north-western tip of Horn Island, a long, thin barrier island with a beach along Mississippi’s Gulf coast.
