Since February 28, 2026, the US and Israel's conflict with Iran has taken an unexpected turn, with President Donald Trump repeatedly claiming victory while Iran says otherwise. Months into the conflict has caused a ripple effect across the globe, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz has left the global economy in a fragile state.

Amid the chaos, Israel's attack on Lebanon has reportedly strained a potential ceasefire between the US and Iran, causing the President of the United States (POTUS) to snap at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

According to news outlet Axios, the POTUS reportedly lashed out at Netanyahu during a phone call for jeopardizing the ceasefire deal with Iran. The call took place after Israel’s attack on southern Beirut, which reportedly led Iran to hint at withdrawing from the ongoing peace talks with the US.

“You are f—g crazy,” the POTUS reportedly told Netanyahu during the call. He further added that, if it were not for him, the Israeli prime minister would be behind bars. Quoting a US official cited by Axios, he said, “You’d be in prison if it weren’t for me. I’m saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this.”

According to various sources, during the call, the POTUS asked Netanyahu, “What the f— are you doing?”

Benjamin Netanyahu Calls Off Beirut Strike After Phone Call With Trump -

Sources claim that Trump’s call with Netanyahu was extremely tense, with the POTUS completely lashing out at the latter. Later, the POTUS took to his beloved Truth Social platform and wrote, “There will be no troops going to Beirut, and any troops that are on their way have already been turned back.”

In April 2026, Iran, Israel, and the US entered into a two-week ceasefire, providing a brief respite amid the conflict. Another 10-day ceasefire was implemented in Lebanon on April 16, 2026. However, Iran deemed Israel's attack on Lebanon to be the sole reason for refusing to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, through which approximately.......

A 18-year-old Henry Nowak - Finance University student from Chafford Hundred, Essex, England - was stabbed by a 23 years old Vickrum Digwa with a Sikh kirpan - a ceremonial knife - with a 21cm blade on December 3, 2025. Vickrum is now sentenced to minimum 21 years in jail by the Southampton Crown Court.

He stabbed Henry five times in Belmont Road, Southampton. When Henry Nowak was walking to his home from a night out in Southampton, England on the same day, the horrible incident took place.

Vickrum Digwa, in his defence, told the Southampton Crown Court that he was subjected to a racist attack by Henry. According to Vickrum, Henry punched him and knocked his turban off in a fight. After this incident he murdered Henry with a Sikh ceremonial knife. Vickrum told the court that he carries the knife as a tradition of Sikh faith in their community. However, the jury has rejected this defence and found Vickrum Digwa guilty of murder of Henry Nowak.

Henry was filmed by his attacker Vickrum in which Henry seems to be telling him that I am a bad man, moments before the knife attack. The attack included two stab deeper wounds to the back of Henry’s legs and a fatal wound to his heart as well as on his chest. The 23-year-old Vickrum is also convicted of carrying a bladed weapon in public and his mother, Kiran Kaur aged 53, found guilty of assisting him by removing the sharp weapon from the incident. The court also found that Vickrum Digwa also lied to the police officers that he had not stabbed Henry Nowak. Henry succumbed to his injuries and died on the spot. Henry’s last words were “I can’t breathe”.

On Monday, June 1, 2026, the founder of Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), Abhijeet Dipke, announced that he will return to India on June 6, 2026. Dipke made the announcement on X account where he shared a video in which he explained the reason behind his return. He said that he is coming back to participate in a peaceful protest demanding the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

He made the announcement with the caption: "Important announcement. CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke will return to India on June 6 for a peaceful protest at Jantar Mantar, Delhi, demanding the resignation of the Education Minister." He is demanding the resignation over the NEET paper leak controversy and other alleged failures in India's education system.

In the video, he said, "Hello everyone, I have decided to come back to India... to ask for the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan." He claimed that millions of students have suffered due to irregularities in major examinations and argued that someone should take responsibility. He also stated that 8 lakh students have signed an online petition seeking the minister's resignation and that crores of people have supported the demand on social media.

He said that students appearing for NEET, CBSE, CUET, and SSC GD examinations have been affected, adding that "there are more than 1 crore students who have been ridiculed by the system." According to him, repeated examination-related issues have left students anxious, uncertain and worried about their future.

The activist said that despite protests being held in several cities, including Lucknow, Jaipur, Maharashtra and Delhi, the government has not responded adequately. He maintained that if a minister does not resign after such major controversies, it raises questions about accountability within the system.

Calling for a peaceful democratic movement, he said, "I will come to Delhi on 6th June, Saturday morning. All of you meet me at the airport. We will all go to Parliament Street Police Station and ask for........

Balendra Shah, Prime Minister of Nepal said that he has learnt about his country "encroaching" territories in India. Balendra Shah was trying to answer the questions asked in the Parliament related to the long-running border dispute between India and Nepal on May 31, 2026. His statement has sparked outrage on social media. It is considered as the first statement by the head of the Nepali Government on this issue.

In his maiden appearance in the ongoing parliament session in Nepal, Balendra Shah said that India and Nepal have agreed to take the help of surveyors, historians as well as experts to look for a resolution. Shah has said that Kathmandu has also held diplomatic discussions and meetings on this particular issue with China and the United Kingdom.

Shah was responding to a question by a lawmaker in the session held in Parliament regarding the Kalapani region, which remains disputed between Nepal and India, whereas both the countries claim sovereignty over the area. Nepal and India have an old dispute going over Kalapani, Lipulekh and Limpiyadhura in which both countries are claiming the boundary areas. India mentions that the territories are part of Uttarakhand whereas it is said the issue must be resolved and addressed via bilateral dialogue.

"The government of Nepal has officially sent a diplomatic notification to India, which talks about the issue of encroachment of territories by India, including Lipulekh, and said we have already received their answers," Shah said in the parliament. "Both the countries have agreed to resolve the problem sitting together with the guidance of historians and experts through diplomatic means." The Nepal Communist Party and Nepali Congress demanded that the Prime Minister should clarify where exactly Nepal has encroached upon the territory of India.

Balendra Shah said that Nepal encroaching Indian territories has triggered a controversy. This issue has sparked outrage on social media and the internet. Many Nepalese social media users are criticising the statement made by the Prime Minister, while experts have dismissed it.

On May 31, 2026, a crowd assembled to cheer and celebrate the annual Israel Day Parade along Fifth Avenue in New York City, a city that never sleeps. Dozens of people marched through the streets waving Israeli flags and dressed predominantly in blue.

The Israel Day Parade, which began in 1964, has long maintained the tradition of having the New York City mayor participate in the event. However, for the first time in six decades, a sitting NYC mayor skipped the 2026 Israel Day Parade.

Zohran Mamdani, NYC’s first Muslim mayor, broke the tradition by not attending the parade. The theme for the 2026 annual parade was “Proud Americans, Proud Zionists.” Over the decades, the parade has been deemed an unmissable event, especially for mayors and governors. The city’s 112th mayor turned the custom upside down, breaking decades-long norms.

Several political figures, such as Senator Chuck Schumer, Governor Kathy Hochul, and Attorney General Letitia James, participated in the parade. Every year, the parade is held to celebrate Israel along Fifth Avenue, beginning at 57th Street. Over the years, the parade has been known by several names, including the “Salute to Israel Parade” and the “Celebrate Israel Parade.”

Mamdani had earlier confirmed at a press briefing that he would not be attending the parade. “I said on the campaign trail that I wouldn’t be attending the parade, and I’ve made my views on the Israeli government abundantly clear,” said Mamdani. He added that security at the parade would be maintained at full force.

The mayor’s absence has sparked a fresh wave of criticism against him. Some parade attendees, however, defended Mamdani’s decision to skip the parade. Jessica Tisch, NYC’s police commissioner, who is also Jewish, stated, “It is the mayor’s decision not to march, and it’s my decision to march proudly.”

Quoting CTV News, Rabbi Marc Schneier, president of the Foundation for Ethnic Understanding, called Mamdani’s decision to miss the Israel Day Parade a “slap in the face to all Jewish New Yorkers.” He said, “Do us a favor, stay home. We don’t need you. We don’t want you.”
