The UN Security Council held a closed-door consultation Monday to discuss rising India-Pakistan tensions after a terror attack in Pahalgam killed 26 people. The meeting, initiated by Greece and requested by Pakistan, saw calls for de-escalation and “tough questions” reportedly posed to Islamabad. Though no official statement was issued, Pakistan claimed its goals were “largely served.” UN official Khaled Khiari briefed members on the volatile situation and emphasized dialogue and peaceful resolution. The UNSC's 15 members discussed the issue amid growing concern over regional stability following the deadly attack.The Indian Army on Tuesday apprehended a Pakistani national near the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch's Chakkan Da Bagh area, amid surging India-Pakistan tensions. Army officials said the man is under interrogation. His capture follows the recent terror attack in Pahalgam that killed 25 tourists and a local, triggering frequent ceasefire violations by Pakistan across the LoC. The Indian Army has responded with retaliatory fire as border hostilities intensify. Military officials say heightened vigilance continues along the volatile frontier, which has seen firing in multiple sectors over the past few days.Amid fears of an Indian military response to the Pahalgam terror attack, the Centre on Monday instructed northern and western states and Union Territories to test civil defence readiness. The Ministry of Home Affairs directed mock drills for May 7 across J&K, Punjab, Rajasthan, and Haryana. States were asked to activate air raid sirens, implement blackout protocols, train civilians in safety drills, and practice evacuation plans. The alert comes as cross-border tensions spike and India braces for possible retaliation, with the Line of Control witnessing daily ceasefire violations since the attack.The Supreme Court warned Indraprastha Apollo Hospital on March 25 that AIIMS may take over its management if it continues to violate land lease terms requiring free treatment for poor patients. Over 12 years, Apollo reportedly allocated only 17% of its mandated Economically Weaker Section (EWS) beds, with some years as low as 12%. The court's rebuke follows a review of internal records revealing chronic underperformance. The hospital was granted land at concessional rates with the condition of providing EWS care, a commitment it now risks losing if non-compliance continues.The Trump administration has introduced a controversial new policy encouraging undocumented immigrants to leave the U.S. voluntarily. According to The New York Times, migrants will be offered $1,000 and a plane ticket home if they choose to self-deport. Payment is issued after departure is verified through the CBP Home app. Officials claim the policy will reduce deportation costs, which typically involve locating, detaining, and flying individuals out via government resources. The policy is being framed as a cost-saving measure amid ongoing debates over immigration enforcement and border control.

Israel prepares to occupy Gaza with US backing "Israel's Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has said that the military is gearing up to occupy Gaza under newly appointed Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir—coordinating efforts with US President Donald Trump's administration. Smotrich issued a stark warning to the Palestinian resistance group Hamas, vowing a devastating offensive. He also said that when they decide the time has come to resume the war, everyone will be surprised by the unity, strength, and lethal precision of Israel's Gaza occupation. The Trump administration, he added, firmly backs the Israeli invasion of Gaza." UNSC passes resolution calling for end to Russia-Ukraine war "The UN Security Council has passed a resolution urging a “swift end” to the Russia-Ukraine war, though it fell short of stronger language pushed by the UK and EU. The US-drafted measure passed with 10 votes in favor and five abstentions. While hailed as a crucial step toward peace, the resolution avoided direct mention of Russia's annexations—fueling criticism. European envoys stressed Ukraine must dictate its own peace, rejecting any “false equivalence” between aggressor and victim." Russia proposes joint exploration of rare earth metals, energy with US "Russian President Vladimir Putin has proposed a rare economic deal with the US, offering joint exploration of rare earth metals and a potential supply of 2 million tons of aluminum annually—if US tariffs are lifted. He also hinted at energy cooperation in Siberia. Putin chaired a meeting with his officials to discuss rare earth metals following US President Donald Trump's statement, in which he said major economic development transactions with Russia would take place. Meanwhile, the Russian president signaled openness to slashing defence budgets by 50 percent to ease global tensions." Fighting in DR Congo's east kills 7,000 since January "Fighting in the Democratic Republic of the Congo's eastern region has claimed 7,000 lives since January, Prime Minister Judith Suminwa Tuluka has confirmed. Speaking in Geneva, she highlighted that over 3,000 deaths occurred in Goma alone, many of them civilians. Tuluka echoed UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres' concerns about the M23 rebel offensive, which is fuelling violence and human rights abuses. Amid growing fears of a regional war, she called for an immediate ceasefire and troop withdrawal, and welcomed US sanctions against Rwanda for supporting the rebel group." Apple announces $500B US investment in software development "Apple has pledged a massive investment of over $500 billion in the US over the next four years, a move that will create 20,000 new jobs, focusing on research and development, artificial intelligence, and software development. The tech giant will also open a manufacturing plant in Houston and an academy in Detroit to support advanced manufacturing. The company's CEO Tim Cook expressed confidence in America's innovation future, further cementing the company's commitment to US growth, following President Trump's tariff-driven push for domestic production."

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Senior analyst Haviv Rettig Gur joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. The UN Security Council is slated to vote on a resolution demanding “an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire” in Gaza. This time, there is also the demand for the “immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.” Rettig Gur weighs in on what the chances are of its passage — and whether it is of any significance. After a meeting with Lebanon's Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, an ally of Hezbollah, Special Envoy Amos Hochstein said, “I came back [to Lebanon] because we have a real opportunity to bring this conflict to an end,” adding that gaps between the sides had been “significantly narrowed” in the talks Tuesday. Berri said the “situation is good in principle,” though some unresolved technical details remain. Why aren't we hearing such optimism from Israel? Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited an Israeli military position in the Gaza Strip and reiterated an offer to lavishly pay Gazans who turn over Israeli hostages, upping the reward to $5 million for each captive, after previously suggesting Israel would pay “several million” for their recovery. Rettig Gur dives into what else the premier was setting out to accomplish. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog.

In a boost for the beleaguered country, US President Joe Biden gave the green light for US missiles to be used against targets deeper inside Russia, potentially limiting its options to launch attacks and supply the front. Biden's decision could be a "game changer" for Kiev, the country's Foreign Minister, Andrii Sybiha, said. *) UNESCO 'enhanced protection' for 34 Lebanon heritage sites Dozens of heritage sites in Lebanon were granted "provisional enhanced protection" by UNESCO, offering a higher level of legal shielding as Israel's war on the country continues.

With Israel thwarting a ceasefire process that could stop the carnage in Gaza, can the United Nations fulfill its mandate to unite for peace? We speak to Gerald Horne for this month's episode of the F-Word on fascism. And as the world awaits retaliation by Iran for Israel's attack on its capital, the wait is part of the punishment for Israel, which is a large stain on the image of so-called Western democracies. Plus headlines: There were talks in Qatar on Thursday for a potential ceasefire in Israel's attack on Gaza but little progress was reported. Meanwhile the U.N. Security Council  met in an emergency session on Tuesday, August 13th after The Prayer Massacre. Russian ambassador to the UN Dmitry Polyanskiy told the UNSC that the U.S. has consistently prevented it from taking meaningful action to stop to bloodshed in Gaza. Meanwhile a  group of activists protested at the U.S. mission to the U.N., urging them to take action to stop Israel's attacks on Gaza. In Ohio, a police officer has been indicted on murder and other charges in the shooting of a 21-year-old pregnant Black mother. Comemmorations were held in Ferguson, Missouri, to mark the 10th anniversary of the 2014 murder of Michael Brown. After four byears of house arrest, a Houston man, Muzzamil Zaidi, was sentenced to time already served because he transferred funds for humanitarian relief in Yemen through religious leaders in Iran. On Friday August 16, the DC for Ceasefire Coalition staged a city-wide action called Not Another Bomb to call for an immediate ceasefire and arms embargo on Israel.

*) Palestine envoy urges UNSC 'it is time to sanction' Israel Palestine's envoy to the UN, Riyad Mansour, has urged the UN Security Council to impose sanctions on Israel amid its ongoing carnage on civilians across Gaza. "Israel continues taking human lives and every action possible to spread wildfires across the Middle East as we sit here on the 75th anniversary of the Geneva Conventions," Mansour said. Mansour urged the Security Council to "Wake up" and ask for accountability. *) US approves $20 billion weapons package for Israel In a statement on Tuesday, the Pentagon said the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has approved the possible sale to Israel of F-15 jets and equipment worth nearly $19 billion. The Pentagon said he also approved the possible sale of tank cartridges worth around $774 million and army vehicles worth $583 million. *) Russia says it thwarted Ukrainian forces expanding Kursk incursion Russia claims its forces stopped a Ukrainian attempt to push further into the Kursk region after a weeklong incursion. The Russian Defense Ministry stated that troops, including fresh reserves, aircraft, drones, and artillery, blocked Ukrainian armoured groups from advancing near Kursk settlements. Meanwhile, a Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesperson said Kiev has no plans to occupy Russian territory. *) Over 1,000 arrested in UK after anti-Muslim riots UK police have arrested over 1,000 people in connection with anti-Muslim riots which took place over the last two weeks in England. At least 575 people have been charged as courts continued to deal with those involved in the disorder. *) Seismic data reveals large underground water reservoir on Mars Scientists from the University of California, Berkeley suggest a vast reservoir of liquid water may exist deep beneath Mars' surface within fractured rocks, potentially enough to cover the planet. This conclusion is based on seismic data from NASA's InSight lander, which studied Mars' interior. The water, located 7.2 to 12.4 miles below the surface, could offer conditions suitable for microbial life, past or present.

*) Israel's war on Gaza reaches 300 days with about 39,500 Palestinians killed Israel's war on Gaza has reached 300 days, with over 39,445 Palestinians killed and 91,000 wounded. Gaza faces a severe blockade, leading to dire shortages of food, water, and medicine. The International Court of Justice has ordered Israel to halt its military invasion in Rafah. Assassinations in Lebanon and Iran by Israel have heightened regional tensions, risking further escalation. *) UN says jailed Palestinians abused, blindfolded, fed alcohol by Israel The United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has released a report detailing severe abuses faced by Palestinian detainees in Israeli prisons since October 2023. The report highlights inhumane treatment, including extreme physical abuse, prolonged blindfolding, and deprivation of basic needs. Disturbing accounts also reveal the use of attack dogs, electric shocks, and sexual violence against detainees. OHCHR criticises the lack of legal justification for many detentions and the denial of access to legal representation for detainees. *) Netanyahu says ready for 'every scenario' after murdering Haniyeh in Iran Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared his country is ready for any scenario after assassinations of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders. He stated that recent operations targeted Hamas' and Hezbollah's senior figures, emphasising Israel's readiness for future threats. *) Algeria, China, Russia blast Israel at UNSC over Haniyeh assassination The UN Security Council condemned the Israeli assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. China and Algeria denounced the attack, calling it a violation of international law. Russia warned the incident could provoke widespread conflict in the Middle East. Separately, Türkiye strongly condemned the assassination, with top Turkish diplomat Hakan Fidan saying that Israel has also killed peace. *) Boeing appoints veteran new CEO amid company turmoil Boeing appointed Robert "Kelly" Ortberg as its new CEO, following David Calhoun's retirement. Ortberg, former CEO of avionics and information technology company Rockwell Collins, aims to tackle Boeing's legal, regulatory, and production issues. Boeing also reported a $1.4 billion loss in Q2, with both its commercial and defence units underperforming. The company's reputation suffers amid ongoing safety investigations and production challenges.

Russia has taken over the presidency of the Security Council for a month and the main topic of discussion is the search for a compromise in Ukraine.

TNT Radio host Patrick Henningsen speaks with independent journalist and Washington correspondent Sam Husseini, to discuss the recent UN Security Council ceasefire resolution floated by the US, in what appears to be another ruse to help Israel buy more time to achieve its goals of ethnically cleansing the native Palestinian population from Gaza.

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on Netanyahu's plan to cleanse Rafah, the ceasefire deal being pushed in Egypt, the UNSC's assessment of Palestinian membership, the GOP's insistence on maintaining child poverty, environmental regulation, and the legal woes of Donald Trump and Eric Adams, before diving into Biden's newest iteration of a student debt relief plan and why he insists on repeatedly falling into the same traps. Sam and Emma also discuss Trump's pivot back to states' rights on abortion, and Laura Ingraham's pivot back to defending states' rights on abortion, and watch Biden's new targeted Roe v. Wade ad, before parsing through the incredible success of the Child Tax Credit in alleviating child poverty in the US, and why the GOP (and some Democrats) are so insistent on killing it. After tackling the major climate change developments in Europe's top human rights court, Sam and Emma wrap up the free half with the killing of the nomination of the potential first Muslim judge on the Federal Bench, and the ongoing struggle against institutionalized medical racism in the US. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma expand on the EPA's recent pollution regulations, James Comer addresses AOC's allegations that he's using suspect Russian intelligence in his Biden impeachment, all because he's using suspect Russian intelligence in his Biden impeachment, and RFK Jr's Campaign Director paints a picture of an ideal Election Day for RFK – the election of Donald Trump. Doug from LA asks for business advice, Jacob Frey defends his veto of minimum wage protections for Uber and Lyft drivers to deafening silence, Michael Knowles continues to struggle in the art of drama, and the TimCast crew endorses embracing oppression, plus, your calls and IMs!

The United Nations Security Council has demanded an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. After vetoing three previous resolutions, the US abstained this time around. The Take looks into the politics of the vote, and whether or not it will change the reality on the ground in Gaza.

GOOD EVENING; The show begins in Moscow after the attack and arrests; then to Tajikistan, Afghanistan, the Subcontinent, and Kabul. To reagan and Trump; to Gaza, UNSC, Shifa Hospital, Iran, Turkey, White House,  To Moscow and 9-11, to Israel, to Niger, to Mexico City, Quito, Bogota, Brasilia, Rio and then coup of 1964..   ChatGPT 4.0 responds: Good evening! Your message reads like an epic journey through some of the most pivotal and intense moments in modern history, spanning geopolitical events, conflicts, and significant global shifts. Covering such a vast array of topics, from specific incidents in Moscow, the dynamics in Central Asia, the political landscapes of the United States, to broader international relations involving Gaza, the UN Security Council, and various other geopolitical hotspots, would require an extensive and nuanced exploration to do each topic justice. Given the breadth and depth of the subjects you've mentioned, could you specify a particular area or event you'd like to explore in more detail? Whether it's a historical event like the coup of 1964 in Brazil, the political careers of Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump, or the intricate geopolitics of the Middle East, each narrative holds its own complexities and significances in the tapestry of global history. 1872 Tajikistan

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Ingrid Robeyns, humanities professor at the Utrech University in The Netherlands, to discuss her recent book Limitarianism: The Case Against Extreme Wealth. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the passage of a UNSC ceasefire resolution, Congress averting a government shutdown, the terror attack in Moscow, Mike Johnson's speakership, Congress' killing of an important internet subsidy, Donald Trump's legal woes, Mifepristone, New Jersey's senate race, and Ronna McDaniel's NBC gig, before parsing through the details of the first UNSC ceasefire resolution not vetoed by the US. Professor Ingrid Robeyns then joins, diving right into the concept of “limitarianism” as a political belief that emphasizes the central importance of limiting wealth inequality and concentration in a functioning society, with the extreme stratification seen in the West (and particularly in the US) pushing severe social and political ills with little to no moral grounding. Expanding on the former, Professor Robeyns dives into the problems that arise in the relationship between money and politics under extreme inequality, with various factors, from campaign finance to political lobbying, giving a very wealthy few immense political power, before she, Sam, and Emma explore how extreme wealth concentration can give these same individuals the freedom to dictate social programs and overtake the public sphere to the detriment of everyone else, and the environment. After briefly touching on the particular role capitalism's ills play within these issues, Ingrid walks Sam and Emma through the moral philosophical grounding of “limitarianism” as a refutation of modern society's supposed meritocracy, bringing into question the role of the individual in coming out the victor of countless natural and social lotteries. Next, Professor Robeyns tackles the role of wealth inequality in creating an inequality division between capital and labor, allowing the former to dictate the rules of the latter, and parses through what solutions are needed – particularly in terms of welfare, social and housing programs, and unionization – to rebalance that dichotomy, before wrapping up the interview looking at the importance of taking fiscal action against tax havens and unregulated free trade, and why changing the public perception on wealth is so necessary in this battle. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Bibi's response to the US not vetoing the UNSC ceasefire resolution, the state of Israel's ethnic cleansing of Gaza, AOC's direct callout of Israel's genocide, and Chuck Todd's direct callout of his NBC employers over their hiring of Ronna McDaniel. Fox News gears up against MTG and Matt Gaetz as another speakership coup attempt takes root against Mike Johnson, and Mike Lindell comes forward with evidence of – get this – voter fraud in 2020, plus, your IMs!
