  • UK defence boost: Starmer sets out spending plan ahead of NATO summit

    UK defence boost: Starmer sets out spending plan ahead of NATO summit
    Jun 30 2026
    Britain has unveiled a four-year defence investment plan worth nearly $20bn to strengthen deterrence and reach 3.5% of GDP by 2035. Funding will expand nuclear capabilities, procure 12 F-35A jets and long‑range missiles, and back UK‑developed unmanned vessels to guard vulnerable subsea communications cables. NATO chief Mark Rutte called it a “good step”, yet spending is forecast at 2.7% next year, below the pledge. The plan follows delays and two defence ministers’ resignations.

  • US birthright citizenship: Supreme court rules against Trump's ban

    US birthright citizenship: Supreme court rules against Trump's ban
    Jul 1 2026
    The US Supreme Court has struck down President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting birthright citizenship, reaffirming the 14th Amendment’s guarantee for those born on US soil. Trump, who signed the order on his first day back in office and unusually attended oral arguments, vowed to seek changes through Congress. Republicans signalled legislative or even constitutional routes, though House Speaker Mike Johnson noted the high ratification thresholds. Democrats pledged to resist, as immigrant rights groups welcomed the ruling. Al Jazeera’s Patty Culhane reports from Washington, DC, US.

  • South Africa xenophobic protests: Foreigners fear they will be targeted after rallies

    South Africa xenophobic protests: Foreigners fear they will be targeted after rallies
    Jun 30 2026
    Anti-immigrant marches across South Africa marked an unofficial deadline for undocumented migrants to leave; some demonstrations turned violent with looting and stones thrown at flats, while shops closed and foreign workers stayed home. March and March organiser Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma said weekly protests will continue and urged six months of national resources to remove “illegal immigrants”. Thousands of African nationals have left; others shelter in transit camps, recounting evictions and assaults, as attacks on foreigners have recurred since 2008.
