A similar letter that Blinken sent to Israeli officials in April led to more humanitarian assistance getting to the Palestinian territory, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said Tuesday. But that has not lasted.

“In fact, it’s fallen by over 50% from where it was at its peak,” Miller said. “So the secretary, along with Secretary Austin, thought it was appropriate to make clear to the government of Israel that there are changes that they need to make again, to see that the level of assistance making it into Gaza comes back up from the very, very low levels that it is at today.”

“Seriously, it’s 2024,” Judith Collins told reporters Thursday. “What the hell’s going on here?”

Observers say it’s unlikely Kim will launch a preemptive, large-scale attack on South Korea because of fear that an almost certain massive retaliation by the more superior forces of the United States and South Korea would threaten Pyongyang’s survival.

At the property, the couple met two other workers who were also Indonesian.

Immediately, they asked what type of jobs Dimas and Bella had been promised.

When the couple replied, "to harvest and pack cucumbers", the other workers told them those jobs did not exist and that they had been lied to.

Instead, they had to do heavy manual labour to renovate the farm, which they were told had been abandoned a year or two earlier.

Bella started to cry.

“Her mother’s a big fan of ours,” the former president finished before returning to his speech. “Her mother, her father.”

“Investigators told me that this was the worst case that they’ve dealt with, a very, very horrible case involving animal cruelty,” said Constable Stephen Spencer.

The strike was in response to Israeli attacks, including air strikes on Thursday, that Lebanon's health ministry said killed at least 22 people in central Beirut.

A civil defence spokesman said the attack on al-Mufti school, where hundreds of displaced people from around Gaza were sheltering, had injured at least 50 people and more than a dozen were killed.

The killing of a Sikh separatist in Canada last year was part of a broader campaign of violence against Indian dissidents directed by a senior official in the Indian government and an operative in the country’s spy agency, according to Canadian officials who cited intercepted Indian communications and other newly acquired information.

Canadian authorities have also identified at least six Indian diplomats serving in Canada who were directly involved in gathering detailed intelligence on Sikh separatists who were then killed, attacked or threatened by India’s criminal proxies, Canadian officials said.

“The scale of [Chinese military] activity is getting larger and larger, and so it is harder to discern when they might be shifting from training to a large exercise, and from an exercise to war,” the Taiwanese defense official added.

Over 50 people were detained by the police during the raid, SHOT reported, adding that police also raided Three Monkeys, another central Moscow queer venue overnight. It is unknown where those detained were taken.

The warning came after Israeli forces hit positions of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), injuring peacekeepers.

Amjad Al-Shawa, Director of the Palestinian Non-Governmental Organizations Network, told CNN that the depletion of flour and other production materials has led to the closure of essential bakeries that produce bread as part of humanitarian aid.

“Most of our people have come to rely on this aid. Now, they are at risk of hunger and famine,” Al-Shawa added.

“It is no coincidence that these antisemitic demonstrations appear 48 hours after the first anniversary of the Hamas attack against the State of Israel, because they express the same terrorist ideas: eliminating the Jewish people,” Victor Garelik said in a statement.

A member of the Indian Business Association, who did not want to be named, told RNZ about an incident at his Auckland petrol station, in which he tried to stop a customer driving away without paying.

He had opened the passenger side door and was confronted with a gun, he said.

"He just pointed the gun toward me, and that was a shotgun," he said.

"He said 'f*** off', so I immediately hands up, and just left the car, let him go."

Five barrages of dozens of rockets were fired at northern Israel, most of which were intercepted. Fragments from the interceptions damaged several houses, including rockets falling in agricultural areas and inside Lebanese territory.

Peters’ speech, covering New Zealand First’s policy on overseas investment and taking jabs at Labour, had already been interrupted by a small group, shouting “free Palestine” and questioning Peters’ foreign policy in the Middle East. They were removed from the conference.

They said they were from the “bureau of concerned citizens”, believing a “genocide is occurring”.

Then, as Peters left, more people began shouting at Peters, then clashing with attendees. Multiple people were pushed up against hallway walls.

However, he said he was concerned that "Israel doesn't listen".

"They effectively just shut down the coal plant and left the people to deal with the outcomes," said deputy energy and electricity minister Samantha Graham.

The press conference "was strong on determination but lacking in numerical details," said Vasu Menon, managing director for investment strategy at OCBC in Singapore.

"The big bang fiscal stimulus that investors were hoping for to keep the stock market rally going did not come through," said Menon, adding this may "disappoint some" in the market.

"They had rocket launchers and hand grenades with them," he told AFP.

She withdrew her first petition two months after filing it in 2022. Bohren denied her second request this past April, saying she remains a risk to the public.

The one-page petition doesn’t include any arguments for Geyser’s release. Instead, it cites state laws that require Bohren within 20 days to appoint at least one expert to examine her and produce a report within 30 days of being appointed. The petition also requests the judge schedule a hearing, noting that state law requires him to hold one within 30 days of receiving the examiner’s report.

"We assess that the Supreme Leader has not made a decision to resume the nuclear weapons program that Iran suspended in 2003," said the ODNI spokesperson, referring to Iran's leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The intelligence assessment could help explain U.S. opposition to any Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear program in retaliation for a ballistic missile attack that Tehran carried out last week.

The “glow” of the industry has worn off, he says. It had once made him “feel fancy”. Now, he is just a “finance rat”, as he and his peers are mockingly called online.
