Palestinian Man Dies in Israeli Custody Amid Major Jenin Operation, Emirates Unveils Heartwarming A380 Livery, and Other Global Headlines

Palestinian man dies in Israeli detention amid Jenin operation targeting Iranian-backed groups, escalating violence and resulting in 29 Palestinian deaths.
A Palestinian man, Ayman Rajeh Abed, died in detention after being arrested by Israeli troops during a major operation in Jenin, West Bank. His body, showing signs of beatings and torture, was handed over to Palestinian health authorities, and the Israeli military reported he experienced a cardiac event. This operation aimed at countering attacks by Iranian-backed groups has resulted in 29 Palestinian deaths, extensive infrastructure damage, and continued violence in the region.

Meanwhile, Emirates has introduced a heartwarming A380 livery inspired by its charitable foundation, featuring children’s artwork and the phrase “Help to support children in need.” The aircraft with the new livery will travel to Johannesburg, showcasing the foundation's support for various projects in the city. Funded by Emirates' customers, donors, and employees, the foundation aids children globally through initiatives in housing, education, and medical care, supporting 14 NGOs across nine countries and providing over 500 volunteer flights for essential services annually.

Turning now to Jordan, the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, funded by the Japanese government, has launched a project to address climate change and resource challenges in the nation’s northern refugee-hosting areas. This initiative aims to benefit 150 individuals through disaster risk reduction and forest rehabilitation, particularly in the Zaatari camp and the regions of Ajloun and Jerash. It highlights a collaboration between the FAO, Japanese Ambassador Okuyama Jiro, and Jordan's Ministry of Agriculture to align with sustainable development goals and build community resilience.

In a different part of the world, the Bahraich district of Uttar Pradesh, India, faces another kind of challenge, with a pack of wolves killing nine people over the past two months, sparking panic among residents. Authorities have deployed hundreds of police to handle the situation, and locals are using guard dogs and firecrackers to fend off the predators. Experts believe these attacks are due to wolves being driven out of their usual territory by heavy flooding, forcing them to hunt in populated areas.

On the political front, former UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn has launched the Independent Alliance, a pro-Palestinian parliamentary group. This group, comprising MPs Shockat Adam, Ayoub Khan, Adnan Hussain, and Iqbal Mohamed, aims to promote the Palestinian cause, fight austerity, and challenge UK arms sales to Israel. Although not forming a political party, the alliance invites more MPs to join them in their mission for a more equal and peaceful world.

Finally, Turkiye has conducted significant air strikes in northern Iraq, targeting and destroying 20 sites belonging to the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK). The Turkish Defense Ministry confirmed the strikes neutralized numerous militants, hitting PKK bases in Asos, Gara, Hakurk, Metina, Qandil, and Zap. The PKK is recognized as a terrorist organization by Turkiye, the United States, and the European Union.
