Report: Iraqi army enters Baghdad's Green Zone, tanks deployed Press TV reported that the Iraqi army entered Baghdad's Green Zone with tanks and armoured vehicles, placing the heavily fortified district, which houses the US Embassy, under lockdown. The reported deployment came amid escalating regional tensions after Bahrain's interior ministry confirmed warning sirens had sounded following reports of an explosion and claims of a drone attack targeting Sheikh Isa Air Base. The developments followed overnight US attacks on 10 Iranian military sites near the Strait of Hormuz, which Washington said were retaliation for a drone strike on the tanker M/T Kiku.

Tony Blair's latest intervention reveals a man who learned nothing from Iraq Submitted by Barry Malone on Fri, 06/05/2026 - 18:35 It's high time that the UK's commentariat stop worshipping a man whose hubris has fuelled massacres across the Middle East Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair speaks in Vienna, Austria, on 3 June 2025 (Joe Klamar/AFP) On There were two words everywhere late last month after former British Prime Minister Tony Blair treated us to a 5,700-word essay on UK politics . The 73-year-old, several commentators and media outlets said, had made a “rare” intervention. For others, the intervention was “extraordinary”.  Journalism depends on accuracy, so let’s consider both words: firstly, the intervention was about as rare as an arms industry lobbyist in Westminster.

True art, in its most profound sense, is always a reflection of the human condition, and the human condition is, by its very nature, political ANUSHAH RIYAZ This question has been the topic of discussion for many years now, where we analyse and look towards the inherent meaning of an artistic piece. Art is not just art any more. It is the collection of one’s thoughts, opinions, privileges and abilities.

THERE is no shortage of gruesome wars across history initiated by tyrants and oppressors against the weak and the defenceless. The mayhem we have witnessed in Iran, Lebanon and Gaza is the latest in this long series of blood-soaked events. One of the most poignant and sorrowful episodes where absolute righteousness clashed with absolute evil is what millions across the world are commemorating today: the event of Ashura , where the family members of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) were slaughtered or taken prisoner in the burning desert of Karbala in 61AH.

Muharram marks the first month of the Islamic calendar. In this month, Muslims across the world are reminded of a historic tragedy that befell the noble family of the Holy Prophet (SAW) in the plains of Karbala, in present-day Iraq, when the beloved grandson of the Holy Prophet (SAW) and his family members were mercilessly martyred. This episode was a turning point in Islamic history.

At no point in recent history has the absence of meaningful diplomacy been so visible, nor its consequences so devastating. The modern world, interconnected as never before, now finds itself navigating a series of overlapping crises, military, economic, humanitarian, and ideological, yet the very instrument designed to prevent such convergence is too often neglected. Diplomacy, once the first recourse of responsible statecraft, is increasingly treated as an afterthought, invoked only when the damage has already been done.

Andy Burnham chooses Labour Friends of Israel ex-chair as chief of staff, report says Submitted by Imran Mulla on Wed, 06/24/2026 - 12:49 James Purnell was a cabinet minister under Tony Blair and Gordon Brown Britain's then secretary of state for work and pensions, James Purnell, makes a statement to the press in central London, on 24 January 2008 (Shaun Curry/AFP) Off Andy Burnham has reportedly asked former minister James Purnell, who was once chair of the Labour Friends of Israel group and has been the chief executive of a major lobbying firm, to be his chief of staff. Burnham, who is likely to replace Keir Starmer as the British prime minister by 17 July, is preparing his team for government and is working with figures from different sides of the Labour Party. Burnham's current allies include Josh Simons , the former director of the think tank Labour Together, which is widely credited with propelling Starmer to power, but also MP  Louise Haigh , reportedly a victim of the Labour Together machine.

The Shahadat of Imam Hussain (AS) transformed Karbala from a historical battlefield into an eternal moral landmark Few events in human history have left as profound and enduring a moral and spiritual legacy as the Shahadat (martyrdom) of Imam Hussain ibn Ali (AS) at the Battle of Karbala. More than thirteen centuries have passed since that defining day on the plains of Karbala in 680 CE, yet its message continues to inspire people across generations, cultures, and civilisations.  While Karbala occupies a central place in Islamic history and holds immense spiritual significance for Muslims, its timeless lessons transcend religious and geographical boundaries. It is not merely an event to be remembered, but a living testament to humanity's enduring struggle between truth and falsehood, justice and tyranny, honour and humiliation.
