Amid escalating crises in Gaza and rising tensions on the Lebanese border, the WHO and ICRC call for ceasefire and humanitarian law adherence. Meanwhile, Commonwealth nations make strides in environmental protection with the Apia Ocean Declaration, and Michelle Obama campaigns in Michigan for Kamala Harris' historic presidential bid.
The crisis in northern Gaza has escalated to catastrophic levels, as the World Health Organization calls for a ceasefire amid severe medical shortages and violent military operations impacting healthcare facilities, notably at the Kamal Adwan hospital.
Meanwhile, tension is rising on the Lebanese border where intensified Israeli military operations have caused significant alarms, mistaken for earthquakes, and resulted in civilian casualties as airstrikes hit residential areas.
In a move toward environmental preservation, Commonwealth nations adopted the historic Apia Ocean Declaration, committing to protect the oceans from climate change and other threats by 2030, signaling a strong stance on global environmental issues.
The International Committee of the Red Cross echoes a call for adherence to humanitarian laws, as conflicts like those in Sudan, Ukraine, and the Middle East show alarming violations despite the Geneva Conventions being ratified by all states.
On the political stage, Michelle Obama took to Michigan to campaign for Kamala Harris, urging voters to support the historic bid for the first female U.S. presidency amidst ongoing debates on women's rights and reproductive health.
Lastly, Illinois candidate Suzanne Akhras is actively mobilizing Arab American voters, emphasizing the need to influence U.S. foreign policy by increasing their participation in local politics and electing representatives who resonate with their concerns.
