Quote:Zohran Mamdani’s Democratic Socialists of America faction supported a radical pro-North Korea rally where the crowd chanted “Death to imperialism” from the US, The Post has learned.
The New York chapter of the ultra-progressive group, of which Mamdani is the most prominent member, endorsed the People’s Summit for Korea in the city, which bizarrely calls for the reunification of the country — with despot Kim Jong Un in charge.
The DSA’s International Committee was among several Marxist “supporting organizations” that backed the anti-American event, calling for Korea to be reunited as a socialist paradise under the iron grip of its Communist northern powers.
Over 500 people attended the propaganda summit, which continually glorified the rogue nuclear North Korean state — one of the US’ main adversaries on the world stage — and featured participants calling for “death to imperialism” and for the end of US military and “economic domination of Korea.”
Although he did not attend, sources said state Assemblyman and city mayoral candidate Mamdani’s proximity to the event, held at Riverside Church in Harlem between July 25 and 27, was ill-advised.
“What does it tell New York’s Chinese and Korean immigrants who fled to the city to get away from oppressive regimes?” veteran political strategist Hank Sheinkopf told The Post Tuesday.
“What does it say to [others] who fled here because of repressive regimes? It tells them that if you support Mamdani, the people who are with him are going to do terrible things to us.”
The decidedly anti-American speeches included keynote speaker Brian Becker.
“One of the problems that we face in the United States is the nonstop demonization and caricaturing of the DPRK [Democratic People’s Republic of Korea],” he said.
“What happens here in the belly of the beast, in the center of imperialism, would make all the difference in the world … for those yearning to take the socialist path,” he continued.
Becker serves as national director of the ANSWER Coalition, an anti-war group linked to Students for Justice in Palestine and American Muslims for Palestine, groups with alleged ties to Hamas and Iran.
Becker is also one of the organizers of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, which was also listed as one of the supporters of the People’s Summit for Korea.
Quote:President Donald Trump announced Saturday he will nominate Tammy Bruce, currently the State Department’s spokeswoman, to serve as Deputy U.S. Representative to the United Nations with the rank of ambassador.
“I am pleased to announce that I am nominating Tammy Bruce, a Great Patriot, Television Personality, and Bestselling Author, as our next Deputy Representative of the United States to the United Nations, with the rank of Ambassador,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on August 9. “Since the beginning of my Second Term, Tammy has been serving with distinction as Spokesperson of the State Department, where she did a fantastic job. Tammy Bruce will represent our Country brilliantly at the United Nations. Congratulations Tammy!”
Bruce was appointed State Department spokeswoman in January 2025, shortly before the start of Trump’s second term. Trump named her to the role in a Truth Social post on January 4, describing her as a “highly respected political analyst” and noting her earlier work in media and political commentary.
A political analyst, author, and former Fox News contributor, Bruce earned her bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of Southern California. Earlier in her career, she was involved in liberal activism before becoming a prominent conservative voice in television and radio. She has conducted several interviews with Breitbart News and has previously commented on foreign policy topics, including China’s interest in Greenland’s infrastructure development.
Quote:The United States is offering a $50 million reward for information leading to the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday.
In a video posted on X, Bondi accused Maduro of working with criminal organizations such as Tren de Aragua and the Sinaloa Cartel.
"Today, Department of Justice and State Department are announcing a historic $50 million reward for information leading to the arrest of Nicolas Maduro," Bondi said.
She continued, "Maduro uses foreign terrorist organizations to bring deadly drugs and violence into our country. The DOJ has seized over $700 million in Maduro-linked assets, including two jets and nine vehicles. Maduro is one of the world's largest narco-traffickers and a threat to national security. Under President Trump's leadership, Maduro will not escape justice and will be held accountable."
The U.S. was previously offering a $25 million reward for information relating to Maduro.
Newsweek has reached out to the DOJ via email on Thursday night for further comment.
U.S. Pressure on Venezuela Cartels
Last month, the U.S. designated the Venezuela-based Cartel de los Soles as a terrorist group and said it is headed by the president of the South American country.
The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announced it had sanctioned the cartel as a specially designated global terrorist organization.
The OFAC statement said the group supports foreign terrorist organizations threatening the peace and security of the United States, namely Tren de Aragua and the Sinaloa Cartel.
Maduro, of the country's United Socialist Party, was sworn in for a third six-year term in December, despite credible evidence that he lost last year's election by a more than 2-to-1 margin to Edmundo González, a Democratic Unity Roundtable (UMD) candidate. The U.S. government, including both the Biden and Trump administrations, along with several other Western nations, continue to reject the authoritarian president's claim to victory.
How the U.S. Utilizes Large Reward Offerings
By offering such significant rewards, the U.S. government seeks to motivate insiders, opposing factions, or foreign allies to provide actionable intelligence on high-profile individuals like Maduro. This method is particularly used in cases where direct access is constrained by sovereignty, security, or diplomatic considerations. In Maduro's case, imposing a $50 million bounty heightens the cost for anyone harboring or assisting him, and could catalyze his capture should he leave Venezuela or lose protection.
In 2022, U.S. authorities placed a $20 million bounty on drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero, and a $5 million reward on Humberto Montoya Sánchez in 2007 — both captures were achieved through intelligence-driven operations. More recently, the U.S. refreshed a $5 million bounty for MS-13 leader Yulan Adonay Archaga Carías.
Quote:The U.S. Department of Justice has released an update confirming that it plans to ask the Supreme Court to rule on the constitutionality of President Donald Trump's executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship.
The announcement was disclosed in a joint status report filed Wednesday, August 6, 2025, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington.
Why It Matters
The Justice Department's plan to seek a Supreme Court ruling on the constitutionality of President Donald Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship—entitled "Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship"—marks a critical juncture in the national debate over immigration and constitutional rights.
Signed on January 20, 2025, it directs the federal government to deny citizenship documents to children born in the U.S. to undocumented or temporary immigrant parents.
At stake is the interpretation of the 14th Amendment, which has long been understood to guarantee citizenship to nearly all individuals born on U.S. soil. A ruling in favor of the order could reshape federal authority over citizenship, impact millions of U.S.-born children, and redefine the limits of executive power—making this one of the most consequential legal battles in recent memory.
What To Know
On February 6, 2025, the district court in Seattle issued a nationwide preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of President Trump's executive order.
The case under review, State of Washington v. Trump, was just one of several ongoing legal challenges in which lower courts have largely rejected the administration's legal theory. District courts in Maryland (February 5), New Hampshire (February 10), and Massachusetts (February 13), have each upheld that the order conflicted with constitutional protections and halted its enforcement in their respective jurisdictions.
Quote:President Donald Trump has directed an "increased presence" of federal law enforcement officials in Washington, D.C., beginning at 12:01 a.m. Friday, the White House announced.
The office of Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser declined comment when contacted by Newsweek.
Why It Matters
Trump has repeatedly suggested that authority over Washington could be returned to federal authorities and threatened to federalize the city in recent days while citing a high rate of violent crime.
Giving the federal government control of Washington would require Congress to repeal the Home Rule Act of 1973, a step Trump said lawyers are examining but could inspire significant pushback.
What To Know
A weekend attack on a former employee of the Department of Government Efficiency has shined a light on street violence in the nation's capital.
Edward Coristine, nicknamed "Big Balls," was attacked in the city's Logan Circle neighborhood by a group of teenagers during an attempted carjacking around 3 a.m. Sunday. Two 15-year-olds were arrested as they attempted to flee the scene, police said.
A picture of a bloodied, shirtless Coristine sitting on a street after the attack was shared on Truth Social by Trump, who posted that crime was "out of control."
"Crime in Washington, D.C., is totally out of control. Local 'youths' and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16-years-old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent Citizens, at the same time knowing that they will be almost immediately released. They are not afraid of Law Enforcement because they know nothing ever happens to them, but it's going to happen now!" he said.
"If D.C. doesn't get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City, and run this City how it should be run, and put criminals on notice that they're not going to get away with it anymore. Perhaps it should have been done a long time ago," the president added.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement that Trump had "directed an increased presence of federal law enforcement to protect innocent citizens."
"Starting tonight, there will be no safe harbor for violent criminals in D.C. President Trump is committed to making our Nation's capital safer for its residents, lawmakers, and visitors from all around the world," she said.
The White House said federal law enforcement officers will be in the city for a period of at least seven days, with "the option to extend as needed."
The patrol will be led by the U.S. Park Police and include members of what the White House called the "D.C. Safe and Beautiful Task Force," which Trump established in a March 28 executive order.
That task force includes officials from the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), the U.S. Marshals Service, the Department of Transportation, the Department of the Interior and more.
Despite the move by Trump, according to Washington Metropolitan Police data, violent crime is down 26 percent this year, compared with the same period last year.
This includes a 12 percent dip in homicides, a 28 percent decrease in robbery and a 20 percent drop in assault with dangerous weapons. Carjackings are down 37 percent this year, according to the police data.
NBC Washington cited statistics showing that about 1 percent more juveniles have been arrested in the capital through June this year compared with 2024's first six months.
Quote:Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) invoked Beyonce and laughed off troubling accusations about her workplace behavior on Thursday when asked about The Post’s exclusive report on her “diva” antics on Capitol Hill.
Crockett’s response to allegations that she’s a boss from hell came after she repeatedly refused requests for comment from The Post.
The congresswoman erupted in laughter when asked about the report during an interview on “The Takeout with Major Garrett” on CBS News.
“Oh my goodness, listen, I know that I have arrived, honey,” Crockett said, after composing herself. “That is the way that I see this.”
“Because as Beyoncé says, if they’re not talking about you, then obviously you must not be doing anything,” she added.
Multiple former staffers and congressional aides that have worked with Crockett described the Dallas-area rep as “rude,” rarely present in the office and a terror to work with when she does show up.
“She is focused almost exclusively on being an influencer, not a member of Congress,” one source said, describing Crockett as “all diva, no wow.”
“She is laying around her apartment, won’t come into the office, and is really just indifferent to staff and will scream at them,” a former aide said, claiming that the foul-mouthed congresswoman “freaks out over the most random things.”
Another source indicated that Crockett demands staffers rent high-end vehicles– “has to be an Escalade” – to chauffeur her to and from the Capitol every week.
“She expects her staff to drive her around while she’s in the back seat,” the source added, calling it a “power play” akin to “treating the staffer like an Uber driver.”
Quote:A Brooklyn woman who worked as a youth organizer for “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez was arrested Friday on charges she urged her 25,000 social media followers to “attack” a public high school because Jewish students attend it.
Iman Abdul, 27, is accused of posting a screenshot on Thursday of the location of Leon M. Goldstein High School for the Sciences in Manhattan Beach on Google Maps and a chilling caption.
“If anyone needs a public school in NYC to attack for whatever reason … Lexus driving Israhell (sic) loving Zionisits (sic) all attend here,” the since-deleted post read.
“They’ve all gone on ‘Birthright,’ it added, referring to a popular program that offers free 10-day trips to Israel for Jewish young adults.
The NYPD arrested Abdul at her Brooklyn home on Friday, charging her with making a terroristic threat, acting in a manner injurious to a child, aggravated harassment, and making a threat of mass harm.
Abdul worked on the Democratic primary campaigns of socialist pols AOC and state Sen. Julia Salazar in the summer of 2018. She was a paid canvasser for Salazar, the lawmaker told The Post.
She also described herself in the 2019 interview as a student at City College of NY, majoring in childhood education, sociology and Latino studies; and a director at IntegrateNYC, a youth–led group advocating for “desegregation” of city schools.
The Instagram post alarmed Jewish advocates fighting against antisemitism in city schools.
“A map. A pin. A call to harm Jews, fellow New Yorkers, children, teachers. This isn’t just dangerous. It’s evil. Jew-hatred doesn’t stop with a threat. It escalates. We need immediate and unequivocal action,” Tova Plaut, a DOE pre-K staffer and Jewish activist, told The Post.
“I am outraged and horrified that a NYC school was publicly marked for attack simply because of its Jewish population,” she added.
NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch, who is Jewish, and the department’s intelligence unit were quickly alerted to the threat, sources said.
Quote:A tourist was among the three people shot in Times Square early Saturday, the victims told The Post.
The 17-year-old gunman was inside the restaurant Raising Cane on Broadway when he got into an argument with a Citibike rider just after 1 a.m. and decided to settle his beef by leaving the eatery — and opening fire, sources said.
He went onto the street and fired three shots at a group of about a dozen Citibike riders, striking one of them — a 19-year-old — in the foot as well as a man, 65, standing on the sidewalk, the sources added.
His bullets also grazed the neck of an 18-year-old tourist as she rode with her parents and siblings in an Uber, her mother and father, who were visiting from Maryland, told The Post.
“We heard gunshots,” the teen’s mom said. “My daughter was holding her neck. She was bleeding.”
The parents – who also had their 11-year-old twins with them – had just taken a late night bus tour around the city and were getting a ride back to their car in a parking lot.
“It’s a very horrific experience,” said the mom, who asked to remain anonymous. “We decided to take our time to come to Times Square. We just felt that we would have a beautiful experience at night to see the whole city.”
Her daughter was treated at Bellevue Hospital and released. She plans to start college at Morgan State University in the fall.
“They were going to put stitches in but decided not to,” the mom said.
Her husband, who also asked that his name be withheld, said the family was shocked by what happened.
“We were traumatized,” said the father, who’s originally from Nigeria. “If anyone told me to come to Times Square for even $1 million I wouldn’t do it.”
The injured 65-year-old, who was shot in the thigh, was also taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition.
Cops took the teen shooter into custody at the scene and recovered a Glock from him, the sources said. Three .380 mm shell casings were also recovered at the scene.

A plague of rats is causing havoc at almond farms in California, where the rodents are running amok and damaging farms in the San Joaquin Valley, the Fresno Bee reported.
It is expected the rats will cost farmers and taxpayers more than $300 million in combined crop losses and infrastructure damage, the report said.
Growers told the Bee that roof rats, also known as black rats, have gnawed through irrigation lines, stripped bark from branches, and chomped on ripening almonds.
“We live in an infinite sea of rats,” said Niamh Quinn, a University of California Cooperative Extension wildlife adviser, speaking to the Fresno Bee. “They are everywhere.”
The rats, experts said, have taken to burrowing underground whereas they’ve typically nested in the almond trees.
This has made the rats harder to control.
One farmer estimated a 50% crop loss, thanks to the pesky rats, the paper reported.
A 2024 survey by the California Department of Food and Agriculture found up to 32 rats were being captured each night at some area trapping locations.
Analysts admitted they’re probably underestimating the true impact of the infestations, and suggest the climate crisis may not be helping, as rat populations grow faster in warmer conditions.
Researchers are urging farmers to perform burrow fumigation to contain booming rat populations.
Quote:A southern California wildfire that has threatened thousands of homes is still only 21% contained, officials said Saturday, warning of the blaze’s “extreme” behavior amid low humidity and summer heat.
The Gifford Fire, which started Aug. 1, has prompting widespread evacuation orders and scorched more than 104,000 acres across San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties, where evacuation orders and warnings are in place.
Nearly 3,600 firefighters are battling the flames amid hot, dry conditions.
“We have hot weather, and we have low relative humidity,” said Santa Barbara County Fire Department Capt. Scott Safechuck.
“So, we expect extreme fire behavior.”
Gifford’s destruction has already surpassed last month’s Madre Fire in San Luis Obispo County, which burned 80,000 acres before containment.
Nearly 100 hand crews, 267 engines, 98 water tenders, 21 helicopters, and 142 bulldozers have been deployed, according to The Fresno Bee.
Flames continue to burn inside Los Padres National Forest, where officials reported “two large smoke columns” Saturday, with the largest rising from an area crews have fought to control for two days.
Meanwhile, the Canyon Fire, which started Thursday afternoon, has burned more than 5,000 acres in Ventura and Los Angeles counties.
Quote:A subway rider was stabbed in the neck at an East Village subway station on Saturday night, according to the NYPD.
A 44-year-old straphanger got into a physical altercation with an unknown man stemming from a verbal argument on the northbound platform of the 2nd Avenue F-train station just before 9:15 p.m., cops said.
As the two tussled, the assailant whipped out a blade and stabbed the 44-year-old once in the right armpit and once in the neck, according to the NYPD.
The victim fled the station and received medical attention on the street level at 1st Avenue and 1st Street.
He was taken to Bellevue Hospital, alert and conscious, and is expected to survive, the NYPD said.
Police said no suspect is in custody and an investigation is ongoing.
UKRAINE WAR
Quote:Indian-made components have been discovered in Russian drones used for deadly attacks on Ukraine, one of President Volodymyr Zelensky’s top officials has claimed.
The Iranian-made Shahed drones containing Indian parts have been involved in attacks along the frontlines and against civilians, Ukrainian presidential chief of staff Andriy Yermak wrote on Telegram.
He called on the world to “deprive Russians of the ability to receive components from other countries and stop the killing of Ukrainians,” according to Kyiv-based Ukrainian news agency UNN.
“Also, buying Russian energy resources is financing the war, which does not contribute to peace,” Yermak added.
The White House and National Security Council didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment from The Post.
The drone development comes as President Trump has threatened to slap new tariffs on India if it does not stop purchasing Russian oil.
“India is not only buying massive amounts of Russian Oil, they are then, for much of the Oil purchased, selling it on the Open Market for big profits. They don’t care how many people in Ukraine are being killed by the Russian War Machine,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday.
Trump added on Friday that he was also seeking to impose new sanctions on Russia and any country that purchases its energy exports like crude oil and electricity.
India, as the third-biggest oil importer and consumer in the world, has a high demand and draws one-third of its supply from Russia.
A source from the Indian government noted that its purchases have helped balance global oil prices by easing the pressure on supplies from other regions.
The relatively inexpensive Shahed drones that included the Indian-made components have become a crucial part of Vladimir Putin’s war on Ukraine since late 2022.
US auctioning off seized $325M Russian superyacht, equipped with helipad, private gym and luxury spa
Quote:The United States is auctioning off the $325 million yacht Amadea, its first sale of a seized Russian luxury ship since the start of Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
The auction, which closes Sept. 10, comes as President Donald Trump seeks to increase pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war. The U.S. has said it’s working with allies to put pressure on Russian oligarchs, some of whom are close to Putin and have had their yachts seized, to try to compel him to stop the war.
The 348-foot-long (106-meter-long) yacht, seized three years ago and currently docked in San Diego, was custom built by the German company Lürssen in 2017. Designed by François Zuretti, the yacht features an interior with extensive marble work, eight state rooms, a beauty salon, a spa, a gym, a helipad, a swimming pool and an elevator. It accommodates 16 guests and 36 crew members.
Determining the real ownership of the Amadea has been an issue of contention because of an opaque trail of trusts and shell companies. The yacht is registered in the Cayman Islands and is owned by Millemarin Investments Ltd., also based in the Cayman Islands.
The U.S. contends that Suleiman Kerimov, an economist and former Russian politician, who was sanctioned by the U.S. in 2018 for alleged money laundering, owns the yacht. Meanwhile, Eduard Khudainatov, a former chairman and chief executive of the state-controlled Russian oil and gas company Rosneft, who has not been sanctioned, claims to own it.
U.S. prosecutors say Khudainatov is a straw owner of the yacht, intended to conceal the yacht’s true owner, Kerimov. Litigation over the true ownership of the yacht is ongoing.
A representative of Khudainatov said in an emailed statement Wednesday that the planned sale of the yacht is “improper and premature” since Khudainatov is appealing a forfeiture ruling.
“We doubt it will attract any rational buyer at fair market price, because ownership can, and will, be challenged in courts outside the United States, exposing purchasers to years of costly, uncertain litigation,” said the representative, Adam Ford.
Quote:Russia struck a key gas pumping station in Ukraine, undermining the nation’s preparation for winter in an attack that President Volodymyr Zelensky blasted as “absolutely cynical.”
The Orlovka gas interconnector, which pumps in LNG imported from the US and Azerbaijan, was struck during a Russian airstrike on the village of Novosilske, along the Romanian border, Zelensky confirmed Wednesday.
“This was a deliberate blow to our preparations for the heating season, absolutely cynical, like every Russian blow to the energy sector,” the Ukrainian president said on Telegram.
The attack on the gas line was also confirmed by the Russian Ministry of Defense, according to the TASS state news outlet.
Kyiv has faced a serious gas shortage since Russia began escalating its daily bombardments on Ukraine earlier this year, plummeting domestic production and forcing the besieged nation to rely more on imported LNG as winter approaches.
Ukraine’s energy ministry said that the station that was hit on Wednesday was part of the gas route connecting Greek LNG terminals with domestic facilities facing shortages.
The gas line had already been used to deliver LNG from the US to Ukraine, with successful tests also conducted to move Azerbaijani gas, bolstering plans for a large energy deal between the two nations.
“This is a Russian strike purely against civilian infrastructure, deliberately targeting the energy sector and, at the same time, relations with Azerbaijan, the United States and partners in Europe, as well as the normal lives of Ukrainians and all Europeans,” the energy ministry said in a statement.
Quote:A US soldier with top-level security clearance was arrested this week after allegedly attempting to hand over sensitive information about military battle tanks to the Russian government, according to authorities.
Private First Class Taylor Adam Lee, 22, an active-duty soldier stationed at Fort Bliss, allegedly passed on sensitive and classified information to a person he believed was a Russian Ministry of Defense representative, the Department of Justice said in a press release.
He was nabbed Wednesday in El Paso on federal charges of attempted transmission of national defense information to a foreign adversary and attempted export of controlled technical data, the feds said.
In June, the alleged two-faced soldier began to transmit classified technical information to the Russian government about the M1A2 Abrams tank online and offered his assistance to the Russian Federation, authorities detailed.
Lee holds a top-secret and sensitive compartmented information security clearance, federal agents said.
“The USA is not happy with me for trying to expose their weaknesses,” Lee allegedly said in a message to a supposed Russian official.
“At this point, I’d even volunteer to assist the Russian Federation when I’m there in any way,” he stated, according to authorities.
In July, Lee met up with someone whom he believed to be a Russian official in person, handing over an SD card packed with sensitive information about the M1A2 Abrams tank and another armored vehicle used by the US military, federal agents claimed.
Lee was not licensed to obtain several documents on the SD card, and the private continually told the official it contained “sensitive and likely classified” information, authorities detailed.
After discussing a specific piece of internal tank hardware during the July meeting, he allegedly dropped off the part at a storage unit in El Paso on July 31, sending a “mission accomplished” message to a supposed Russian contact when he was done, authorities said.
“This arrest is an alarming reminder of the serious threat facing our US Army,” Brigadier General Sean F. Stinchon, the commanding general of Army Counterintelligence Command, said in a statement.
Quote:Russia has launched a twisted adoption database where kidnapped Ukrainian children can be sorted by age, eye and color, and number of siblings, according to the NGO seeking to return Kyiv’s stolen children.
Mykola Kuleba, CEO of the Save Ukraine organization, raised the alarm over the Russian database on Wednesday, warning that the 294 children on the site are effectively being trafficked by the Kremlin.
“These children are presented like products in an e-commerce store, sortable by age, gender, eye and hair color, health status, and even personality traits,” Kuleba wrote on X.
“These children are not ‘war orphans.’ They had names, families, and Ukrainian citizenship,” he added. “Many lost their parents to shelling. Others were forcibly taken and re-registered with new documents.
“Now, they’re being matched with Russian families, treated like animals in a pet adoption database.”
Ukrainian officials estimate that some 35,000 children have been kidnapped and taken into custody by Russia since the start of the invasion in February 2022.
Kuleba said that most of the children found in the catalog were those who lived in the Luhansk region before it fell under Russian occupation.
He accused Moscow of systematically deporting the children deep within Russia so that they would be separated from their loved ones permanently and raised to be Russian.
“With a single click, a child is stripped of their identity, issued a Russian passport, and subjected to ideological control,” Kuleba said.
“This is not adoption. This is not care. This is digital child trafficking, masked as bureaucracy,” he added.
Quote:Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed he will not give up any land Russia seized during its three-year invasion, as President Trump plans to meet with Vladimir Putin in an attempt to end the war.
“The Ukrainian people deserve peace. But all partners must understand what a dignified peace is,” Zelensky told his compatriots in a video speech posted to X. “This war must be brought to an end—and Russia must end it. Russia started it and is dragging it out, ignoring all deadlines, and that is the problem, not something else.
“We are ready to work together with President Trump, together with all our partners, for real and, most importantly, lasting peace. A peace that will not collapse because of Moscow’s desires,” he said.
Zelensky’s Saturday morning speech comes hours after Trump announced his plans to meet Putin in Alaska on Aug. 15.
“Very far away from this war, which is raging on our land, against our people, and which anyway can’t be ended without us, without Ukraine,” Zelensky said.
Zelensky warned he will not allow Russia to be rewarded with Ukrainian land if a peace deal is reached with the US.
“Any decisions that are against us, any decisions that are without Ukraine, are at the same time decisions against peace. They will not achieve anything. These are stillborn decisions. They are unworkable decisions. And we all need real and genuine peace,” Zelensky’s X post was captioned.
The 47-year-old leader blasted his Russian adversary for not considering the Ukrainian citizens when he launched the attacks on the European nation.
“Putin did not believe in our people and therefore made the hopeless decision to try and take Ukraine. This was his main mistake, not taking Ukrainians into account,” Zelensky said.
“I believe in our people. Ukrainians are strong. Ukrainians defend what’s theirs. Many in the world have sided with Ukraine during the war. Even those who are with Russia know that Russia is doing evil,” he added.
The highly anticipated meeting between Trump and Putin is the latest attempt by the 79-year-old commander in chief to quash the deadly conflict that began when Russia launched its invasion of its western neighbor on Feb. 24, 2022.
Quote:Russia pounded Ukraine overnight, killing at least eight civilians and injuring 24 others, as tensions mount ahead of scheduled high-stakes talks between President Trump and Vladimir Putin next week.
Moscow launched 47 Shahed-type drones and two missiles over the past day, according to Ukraine’s Air Force.
Kherson, a partly Russian-occupied territory just north of Crimea, suffered a brutal bus attack Saturday.
A drone struck a bus in the city’s suburbs killing two people and injuring 19 others, local authorities reported.
Then as police officers were recovering bodies of the victims, a second drone hit the vehicle, leaving three officers wounded, Ukraine’s National Police said.
“This is how Russia ‘wants peace,'” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s Chief of Staff Andriy Yermak slammed. “An attack on a civilian bus in the suburbs of Kherson, where Russians hunt civilians every day.”
Kherson has been repeatedly targeted by Russian forces since the start of the full-scale invasion.
“Russians are fooling everyone around them, pretending that they are ready to stop the war, but doing nothing to achieve this goal,” Yermak added.
In Donetsk — the eastern Russian-occupied region Putin wants in exchange for ending the war — three people were killed, Gov. Vadym Filashkin reported.
Zelensky vowed Saturday, however, that he would not relinquish any land Russia occupied during its three-year invasion. His remarks came after President Trump said a cease-fire deal could involve “a swapping of territories” — something Putin has repeatedly pushed for.
Quote:European officials rejected Russian President Vladimir Putin’s calls that Ukraine give up territories annexed during the war — instead demanding Saturday an immediate ceasefire from Moscow and NATO membership for Kyiv.
The counter-offer demands rock-solid security guarantees for Ukraine — namely the long-coveted membership in NATO for the war-torn country before any territorial concessions, sources familiar with the talks told The Post.
Ukraine has been seeking NATO membership since 2008 — eyeing it as a shield against future Russian aggression.
If Putin were to attack a NATO member it would compel all others member countries to respond with military force — under its defense pact — a move that could ignite a global war.
The European plan – put forward by the UK, France, Germany and Ukraine — also proposes that any land exchange must be reciprocal. If Ukraine removes troops from some regions, Russia must pull out of others.
And a cease-fire agreement would need to be reached before any other steps are taken.
“You can’t start a process by ceding territory in the middle of fighting,” one European negotiator told the Wall Street Journal.
UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy, Vice President JD Vance and senior Ukrainian officials met Saturday to discuss Putin’s proposal.
“The UK’s support for Ukraine remains ironclad as we continue working towards a just and lasting peace,” Lammy posted Saturday on X.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Ukraine Envoy Keith Kellogg were also consulted.
President Trump had acknowledged “there will be some swapping of territories to the betterment of both” in a press conference at the White House Friday.
Earlier this week, Putin told Witkoff he would agree to end the war in exchange for the Ukrainian region of Donetsk, according to the Journal.
It’s one of five regions in the south of Ukraine currently under the Russian strongman’s control that’s been targeted by constant air strikes since the start of the more than three-year-old conflict.
Russia currently has full control of the neighboring Luhansk region as well as the Crimean peninsula, but the annexations are not internationally recognized and considered illegal under international law.
Quote:One person was killed, and several apartments and an industrial facility were damaged in a Ukrainian drone attack on the south Russian region of Saratov, the governor said on Sunday.
Roman Busargin posted on the Telegram messaging app that residents were evacuated after debris from a destroyed drone damaged three apartments in the overnight attack.
“Several residents required medical assistance,” Busargin said. “Aid was provided onsite, and one person has been hospitalized. Unfortunately, one person has died.”
Russian air defense units destroyed 121 Ukrainian drones overnight, including eight over the Saratov region, the defense ministry said.
It reports only how many drones its defense units down, not how many Ukraine launches.
Busargin did not specify what kind of industrial site was damaged.
Social media footage showed thick black smoke rising over what looked like an industrial zone.
Reuters verified the location seen in one of the videos as matching file and satellite imagery of the area.
Reuters could not verify when the video was filmed.
Ukrainian media, including the RBK-Ukraine media outlet, reported that the oil refinery in the city of Saratov, the administrative centre of the region, was on fire after a drone attack.
Reuters could not verify those reports.
There was no official comment from Russia.
The Rosneft-owned ROSN.MM refinery in the Saratov city was forced to suspend operations earlier this year for safety reasons after Ukrainian drone attacks, industry sources told Reuters.
Russia’s SHOT Telegram channel, which often publishes information from sources in the security services and law enforcement, reported about eight explosions were heard over Saratov and Engels, cities separated by the Volga River.
ASIA
Quote:A Trump-brokered peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan represents a major breakthrough after decades of fighting between the neighboring nations — and offers the US “leverage” over Russia, an expert tells The Post.
The deal calls for the creation of a 20-mile transit corridor, modestly labeled the “Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity,” that will allow Azerbaijanis direct access to their country’s westernmost region, explained Hudson Institute senior fellow Luke Coffey.
“If you look at a map of Azerbaijan, it’s in two chunks — you have Azerbaijan proper and then there’s Nakhchivan, which is an enclave,” Coffey said. “Think of it like the United States and Alaska, but instead of having Canada in between, you have Armenia.”
With Azerbaijan and Armenia at war since the late 1980s, Azerbaijanis have not been allowed to pass through Yerevan’s territory — forcing much longer trade trips to reach Nakhchivan.
In 2020, Russia — which has relations with both nations — oversaw an agreement to open a transit route through this region, “not for [Azerbaijan] to control it, but to open it, like in the same way we can ship goods to Alaska through Canada,” Coffey said.
“This never happened, though, because Russia as the power broker failed to implement it,” he explained.
Armenia — once heavily supported by Moscow — became frustrated, and the bad feelings grew in 2023 when Russia failed to come to its defense during a push by Azerbaijan to retake the Nagorno-Karabakh region, which Armenia had occupied for more than 20 years.
The deal announced by Trump Friday — which also gives the US exclusive development rights along the new route — would allow Washington to fill the void left by Moscow, further distancing Russia from its former possessions in West Asia as Vladimir Putin pursues expansionist goals in Ukraine.
Putin has long lamented the fall of the Soviet regime, which he has called the “disintegration of historical Russia” and “the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the [20th] century.”
Should the US deal hold up, it would demonstrate Russia’s “diminishing sway within its so-called ‘near-abroad,’” said John Hardie, director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracy’s Russia program.
“They’re being sidelined in a conflict that they used to play a key role in keeping frozen, and using it as a form of leverage over the two parties,” he added.
While it’s unclear whether the Armenia-Azerbaijan deal will help end the Ukraine war, Russia “is not going to be happy,” about the US’ new prominence in the Caucuses, Coffey said.
Quote:India shot down five Pakistani fighter jets and one other military aircraft during clashes in May, India’s air force chief said on Saturday, in the first such public claim by the country after its worst military conflict in decades with its neighbor.
Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif rejected the statement, saying India had not hit or destroyed a single Pakistani aircraft.
At an event in the southern Indian city of Bengaluru, Indian Air Chief Marshal A.P. Singh said most of the Pakistani aircraft were downed by India’s Russian-made S-400 surface-to-air missile system.
He cited electronic tracking data as confirmation of the strikes.
“We have at least five fighters confirmed killed, and one large aircraft,” he said, adding that the large aircraft, which could be a surveillance plane, was shot down at a distance of 300 km (186 miles).
“This is actually the largest ever recorded surface-to-air kill,” he said, prompting applause from the crowd that included serving air force officers, veterans, and government and industry officials.
Singh did not mention the type of fighter jets that were downed, but said that airstrikes also hit an additional surveillance plane and “a few F-16” fighters that were parked in hangars at two air bases in southeastern Pakistan.
In a post on X, Pakistan’s defence minister accused India of dishonesty.
“If the truth is in question, let both sides open their aircraft inventories to independent verification – though we suspect this would lay bare the reality India seeks to obscure,” he said.
Quote:Japan saw nearly 1 million more deaths than births in 2024, marking the country’s steepest single-year population decline since the government surveys began nearly six decades ago.
In 2009, Japan’s population peaked at around 126.6 million, but has dropped steadily ever since, according to data published by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications on Wednesday.
Last year, two records were set: a low for births, and a high for deaths.
Just 687,689 births were recorded in 2024, the lowest since the government first started keeping track in 1968. On the other end, a whopping 1.6 million people died, bringing the total population to 120 million, according to the data.
The ever-growing natality crisis pushed the Japanese government to promote family-oriented policies, including free childcare, expanded access to healthcare and shorter work weeks to in part help free up time for procreation.
Even with the mass incentives, the birth rate continues to drop while more foreign residents seek to make Japan their new home.
In 2024 alone, the number of foreigners living in Japan rose by 10% to a high of 3.6 million people, according to the data.
The heightened presence of foreign residents combined with the shrinking natality spurred increased reports of xenophobia, racism and discrimination against newcomers.
The cycle in part is also worsened by Japan’s elderly, who make up around 30% of the entire population, on top of the country’s slim pool of youth and childbearing adults, according to the data.
Japan’s working-age population, falling between 16 and 64 years old, only makes up 59% of the population — a whole six points lower than the global average, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.
Quote:Thousands bowed their heads in prayer in Nagasaki on Saturday to mark the 80th anniversary of the city’s atomic bombing, as the mayor warned that current global conflicts could push the world again into nuclear war.
The western Japanese city was levelled on August 9, 1945, when the United States dropped a 10,000-pound plutonium-239 bomb, nicknamed “Fat Man”, instantly killing some 27,000 of the city’s estimated 200,000 people. By the end of 1945, the death toll from acute radiation exposure had reached about 70,000.
Nagasaki’s destruction came three days after a U.S. uranium-235 bomb destroyed Hiroshima.
Japan surrendered on August 15, ending World War Two.
After a moment of silence at 11:02 a.m., marking the time of the blast, Mayor Shiro Suzuki called on leaders to return to the principles of the U.N. Charter and show a concrete path toward abolishing nuclear weapons, warning that delay was “no longer permissible”.
“This is a crisis of human survival that is closing in on each and every one of us,” Suzuki told the crowd, estimated by Japanese media at 2,700.
He quoted the testimony of a survivor to illustrate the reality of a nuclear attack: “Around me were people whose eyeballs had popped out… Bodies were strewn about like stones.”
“Is it not this ‘global citizen’ perspective that will serve as the driving force behind stitching back together our fragmented world?” Suzuki asked, calling for a solution based on mutual understanding and solidarity.
The U.S. military is believed to have chosen Nagasaki as a target due to its significance as a major industrial and port city.
The city’s geographical features, including its hilly terrain, were also thought to concentrate the blast.
MIDDLE EAST
Quote:The brother of the hostage forced by Hamas to dig his own grave blasted the “well-fed” terrorists for leaving his brother like a “living skeleton” — and ignoring the plight of those starving across Gaza.
“We saw the well-fed hand of the terrorist in that video that Hamas released this past weekend,” Ilay David told “Fox & Friends” Wednesday of the horrific footage of his 24-year-old brother, Evyatar David.
“You can see that the terrorists have food and the testimonies of captivity survivors says the same,” he said.
“The terrorists always had food … and they’re intentionally starving Evyatar as much as they starve their own population,” he added.
Hamas “are the only ones who have food” in Gaza, the brother said.
In the roughly five-minute video, David’s ribs are clearly visible, proving he is being starved. At one point, a man behind the camera hands him a can of beans.
“This can is for two days,” David says. “This whole can is for two days so that I don’t die.
“This is the grave I think I’m going to be buried in,” he says, digging into the ground with a shovel. “Time is running out.”
His brother said the video should provoke immediate world outrage and action.
“It’s so urgent that he looks like a living skeleton. He’s so weak, he could barely move, he could barely speak, he could barely recognize his voice,” he continued. “And right now, what we need, as you said, is action.”
Quote:The US has presented a plan calling for Hezbollah’s full demilitarization by the end of the year, along with Israel’s withdrawal from southern Lebanon, officials said.
Lebanese lawmakers are reviewing the plan submitted Thursday by President Trump’s envoy, Tom Barrack, which seeks to “extend and stabilize” the fragile cease-fire between Hezbollah and Israel following last year’s war.
“The urgency of this proposal is underscored by the increasing number of complaints regarding Israeli violations of the current ceasefire, including airstrikes and cross-border operations, which risk triggering a collapse of the fragile status quo,” the proposal read, according to Reuters.
The document calls on Beirut to publicly announce its commitment to disarm Hezbollah by Dec. 31, 2025, which would be partnered with Israel ending all ground, air and sea military operations in Lebanon.
The Jewish state currently controls five points in the nation’s southern half, with Israeli officials reiterating that the buffer was needed to hinder attacks from the Iran-backed terror group.
The second phase of the proposal required Lebanon to oversee the disarmament process within 60 days, with the lawmakers tasked with providing a detailed plan for the army to take control of all the weapons.
Under this phase, Israel would begin withdrawing its forces from the five points, with the Jewish state also agreeing to free Lebanese prisoners who were taken into custody during last year’s war, a process that will be overseen by the International Committee of the Red Cross.
Quote:The Associated Press shocked many social media users on Wednesday by publishing a story that they viewed as sympathetic to Hezbollah terrorists.
In September, over 3,000 members of the Iran-backed terror group were injured and at least 30 killed when a covert Israeli operation launched two waves of near-simultaneous detonations of the organization’s pagers and other electronic devices across Lebanon and Syria.
The AP story focused on how “[s]urvivors of Israel’s pager attack on Hezbollah struggle to recover.”
Reporters Bassem Mroue and Sarah El Deeb spoke to six people wounded during the attack, who they acknowledged were all “Hezbollah officials or fighters or members of their families.”
Despite Hezbollah being designated a terror organization by the United States, the article does not refer to Hezbollah members as “terrorists” and instead describes them as a “militant group” or “a major Shiite political party with a wide network of social institutions.”
One of the people interviewed was Mahdi Sheri, a 23-year-old Hezbollah fighter who was injured in the pager attack. The AP reported on how he returned from the front lines and was spending time with his family before his pager vibrated, and he went to go check it. Sheri lost his left eye and has very limited sight out of his right eye, according to the AP.
Sheri had been ordered back to the front line on the day of the attack. Before leaving, he charged his pager and spent time with family. For his security, no mobile phones were allowed in the house while he was there.
“For a while, he could see shadows with his remaining eye. With time, that dimmed. He can no longer play football. Hezbollah is helping him find a new job. Sheri realizes it’s impossible now to find a role alongside Hezbollah fighters,” the AP wrote.
X users roasted the story for presenting Hezbollah terrorists in a compassionate light, calling it “jaw-dropping.”
“This is me; playing my tiny violin,” Twitchy’s Amy Curtis remarked.
Conservative activist Robby Starbuck wrote, “Nothing shocks me anymore with media, but this really did. They’re literally presenting Hezbollah terrorists as victims. Absolutely jaw-dropping.”
“Imagine in 1944, the Associated Press published a news article about how Nazi SS soldiers ‘struggle to recover’ from wounds they suffered from battles with the Allies in Europe. It’s a moral abomination that this is not a fantasy for the @AP in 2025,” Antonin Scalia Law School professor Adam Mossoff commented.
“The hostages held by Hamas struggle to survive,” radio host Tony Katz wrote.
Quote:A rift is reportedly emerging between allies Russia and Iran, after Tehran feels it’s gotten shortchanged in strongman Vladimir Putin’s war against Ukraine.
Moscow inked a $1.75 billion weapons deal with the Islamic Republic in 2023 — called at the time “a covert partnership” — to get the designs to domestically produce Iran’s infamous Shahed drones, which it had been importing since launching its full-scale invasion on Ukraine a year earlier.
But Tehran has been growing increasingly frustrated with the little backing it’s received from Russia since, CNN reported, citing a Western intelligence source.
The resentment hit a high note during the Islamic Republic’s 12-day war with Israel in June, when Tehran was expecting more than just words from its ally.
Russian officials condemned Israel’s attack as “unprovoked and unacceptable” and offered to mediate the conflict — but did not provide any military support to Iran, despite the two countries’ partnership.
Left to fend for itself, the Iranian regime was badly battered and weakened during the conflict. The Jewish state carried out numerous devastating aerial strikes on the Islamic Republic and its nuclear facilities, killing more than 30 Iranian commanders, at least 11 of the regime’s top nuclear masterminds and sending the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei into hiding.
It showed Russia’s “purely transactional and utilitarian nature,” the intelligence official told the outlet.
“This explicit disengagement demonstrates that Russia never intervenes beyond its immediate interests, even when a partner – here an essential supplier of drones – is attacked,” they said.
The Shahed drones — also referred to as kamikaze drones — have since become the cornerstone of Moscow’s war machine, when hundreds are often launched on Ukraine in a single evening.
To add insult to injury, Putin’s men have taken Tehran’s designs and developed better, cheaper versions — and failed to make some of its payments to Iran because of the Western sanctions placed on the Kremlin.
It is unclear how much Moscow has yet to pay its counterpart toward the deal.
Russia has also modernized the drones to make them more lethal and harder to bring down, according to Ukraine, leaving Tehran in the dark about the developments.
Quote:As it prepares to sack Gaza City, Jewish state leaders are signaling to the US that their military takeover can be halted in favor of a cease-fire and the release of the remaining hostages held by Hamas, Israeli television reported Saturday.
US, Qatari and Egyptian mediators are said to be discussing a comprehensive package of proposals to end the war, which include the release of the remaining 50 hostages — 20 of which are believed to still be alive.
The deal on the table would also see full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, demilitarization of Palestinian armed groups and the exile of some Hamas military wing leaders.
A new civilian authority would be established in Gaza, according to Times of Israel reports which cited sources familiar with the negotiations.
The three countries are hashing out the proposal among themselves, before presenting it to Israel and Hamas.
Mediators are also in intense last-minute negotiations with Israel to try and prevent the Jewish state from executing its military objective in Gaza, Saudi media reported.
Israel’s security cabinet approved Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan Friday to take full control of Gaza City in an effort to wipe out the terror group — a major escalation of its nearly two-year conflict.
The timeline for the Israeli operation remains unknown.
But even if the controversial plan moves ahead, Israeli TV said Tel Aviv would be willing to suspend the operation to strike a deal.
LATIN AMERICA
Quote:The dismembered remains of 32 people have been discovered in an abandoned house in Mexico’s cartel-ravaged region of Guanajuato, according to local officials.
Body parts were found in plastic bags in a shallow grave under the property near the city of Irapuato, some 160 miles north of Mexico City, just months after 17 bodies were found in the same city, according to local reports.
So far, 15 of the victims have been officially identified through “highly complex forensic techniques,” the Guanajuato prosecutor’s office said in a statement Monday.
The remains were discovered during a search for missing people in Guanajuato, Mexico’s deadliest state, which is ravaged by gang turf wars linked to the ongoing conflict between the Jalisco New Generation cartel and the Santa Rosa de Lima gang.
Relatives of missing people, who formed the “Hasta encontrarte” (“Until I find you”) collective, visited the site after the news broke Monday.
“We hope to find our loved ones,” a woman who requested anonymity for safety reasons told Agence France-Presse.
“It’s been many years and we still know nothing. When these mass graves are found, we want to be present.”
Guanajuato saw more than 3,100 murders last year, over 10% of total homicides nationwide, according to official figures.
It also had around 3,600 missing persons cases, out of the national figure of more than 120,000.
The state has been plagued by further violence this year.
Last month, a local official was shot dead while attending an amateur basketball game.
A shooting at a neighborhood party in Irapuato last month also saw 11 people killed and around 20 others injured. In May, 17 bodies were discovered in a different abandoned house in the same city.
Quote:Brazil’s Supreme Court on Monday ordered the house arrest for former President Jair Bolsonaro, on trial for allegedly leading a coup attempt after losing the 2022 election.
The court’s Justice Alexandre de Moraes issued the order, saying in his decision that Bolsonaro had violated the precautionary measures imposed on him by posting content on his son’s social media channels.
Prosecutors accuse Bolsonaro of heading a criminal organization that plotted to overturn the election, including plans to kill President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and a Supreme Court justice.
Monday’s order followed one from the top court last month that ordered Bolsonaro wear an electronic ankle monitor and imposed a curfew on his activities while the proceedings are underway.
The latest decision keeps the far-right leader under ankle monitoring, allows only family members and lawyers to visit him and seizes all mobile phones from his home in Rio de Janeiro.
AUSTRALIA
Quote:A 13-year-old Chinese exchange student has been charged with murder over the alleged stabbing death of a 14-year-old girl at a home in Newcastle, Australia.
The 14-year-old, also an exchange student from China, was found with a single wound to her torso at Euston Close, Edgeworth, about 10:20 p.m. Monday, after police were called on reports of a stabbing.
She was treated by paramedics at the scene before being rushed to a hospital in critical condition.
The younger girl will appear in a children’s court on Wednesday on the murder charge.
Superintendent Tracy Chapman, commander of the Lake Macquarie Police District, said both girls were from China, having traveled to Australia as part of a program where they stayed with local residents who acted as hosts.
They were attending a local school and visiting locations around the Hunter area.
“They arrived in Australia eight days ago and were expected to depart Australia on the 16th of August,” Chapman said.
“NSW Police continue to work with the program facilitators to ensure that all of the appropriate processes and notifications are being undertaken.”
Quote:Brisbane Airport has been thrown into chaos after a technical fault at security forced thousands of people to be re-screened.
The fault was found in a single metal detector at the domestic terminal on Monday, which delayed about 10 flights departing from for one hour or longer, according to the Courier Mail.
A Brisbane Airport spokesman said everyone who was inside the terminal had to be re-screened.
“The fault was quickly identified and there is no safety or security threat,” a spokesman said.
“However, it will take some time to re-screen all passengers and staff, delaying flights.
“We apologise for the inconvenience and thank passengers for their patience and understanding.
“Our care team has been activated and is on the ground to support passengers.”
There has been no impact to flights at the International Terminal.
