British right-wing activist Laurence Fox attended an Oxford Union debate arguing that the West should be suspicious of Islam, saying he required security to attend the event after heckling and hostility from protesters.

Fox, an English actor and the founder of the right-wing populist Reclaim Party, has been a vocal critic of Islamic influence in the UK.

Leaders from 22 European Union nations have signed a letter calling for an emergency meeting following Spain’s recent migrant surge at the North African enclave of Ceuta.

According to Euronews, the letter was initiated by Italy and Denmark and calls for "an extraordinary videoconference of the Ministers of the Interior," describing the situation as a “matter of urgency.” The letter was addressed to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European Council President António Costa, and Irish Prime Minister Micheal Martin, whose country assumed the rotating presidency of the council of the European Union last month.

Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez believes his nation, and the west at large, "needs migrants." A region of Spain that borders Morocco has been overrun with more than 60,000 migrants in just a few days as the leader of Ceuta has begged for military aid to keep them at bay. He wrote the

Spain's socialist President Pedro spoke on Friday about the Moroccan Muslim 60,000 migrant-strong invasion of the Spanish exclave Ceuta, saying that the nation "will use all the resources of the State to guarantee security and coexistence." In April, he granted blanket amnesty to some million migrants who illegally entered Spain. For Sanchez, "coexistence" is capitulation.

France and the UK have both offered aid to Spain. Italy, Denmark and Finland back closing Spain's border to the rest of the EU to prevent the illegal migrants from traveling freely across the continent, as there are no border controls between EU nations. France tightened its border with Spain. President Donald Trump and VP JD Vance said the US is at risk of invasions of these kinds if leftists take control in America.

"What has happened is an attack on Spain's territorial integrity and deserves our most resounding and energetic condemnation," Sanchez said. "All of Spain stands with the people of Ceuta. The Government of Spain stands with the Autonomous City. Thank you for the cooperation that we have always maintained with the city government. We will use all the resources of the State to guarantee security and coexistence. And our total and resounding commitment to the future of the Autonomous City of Ceuta."

Videos circulating online appear to show migrants attempting to enter buildings in Ceuta as the border crisis with Morocco intensified overnight, with footage showing groups moving through streets and trying to gain access to both occupied and unoccupied properties.

President Donald Trump announced Thursday that the Board of Peace had reached what he called a “HISTORIC agreement” for the “COMPLETE DISARMAMENT of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza.”

Trump said the agreement is a major step in implementing his 20-Point Plan for Gaza, which he said would eventually lead to a new Palestinian government taking control of the territory while ensuring Israel’s security. The president said the deal would be carried out in phases, with Israeli forces withdrawing as disarmament progresses. He added that an International Stabilization Force would work alongside a new Palestinian police force to maintain security in Gaza.

Spain is deploying military forces to its North African enclave of Ceuta after thousands of mostly male migrants crossed into the territory from Morocco, with officials reporting at least nine deaths during the border chaos. The Spanish government announced Thursday that the Armed Forces would assist the Civil Guard to “maintain security in the city of Ceuta” after local authorities requested additional support as the situation at the border rapidly escalated.

Human Events Daily host Jack Posobiec warned Thursday that the escalating conflict with Iran could become a major issue for Republicans heading into a tight election cycle, as questions grow over military strategy, energy prices and the potential impact on American voters.

Berlin LGBTQ affairs commissioner Alfonso Pantisano said a deadly vehicle attack at the city's Christopher Street Day Pride celebration should not be used to blame immigrants, warning that doing so would ignore what he called persistent anti-

Nigerian lawyer Rodiyah Omotoyosi Mikhail was called to the Bar during the September 2025 Call to Bar ceremony while wearing a niqab beneath the traditional legal wig and gown required for new legal practitioners.

Mikhail was among 6,009 lawyers admitted to the Nigerian Bar during the ceremony organized by the Body of Benchers. Photos from the event showed her dressed in the formal black legal attire while wearing a black niqab, leaving only her eyes visible.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has reportedly been killed, and his body recovered following Israeli strikes on his compound earlier today.

Senior Israeli officials confirmed to multiple news outlets that Khamenei is dead after the strikes. Axios reported that the Israeli ambassador to the US informed US officials that Khamenei was killed, and Reuters cited a senior official who said Khamenei's body had been found. The confirmations came after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there were "growing signs" that the Iranian leader is "gone."

European leaders reacted to the US and Israeli strikes on Iran, largely calling for restraint as well as de-escalation. At the same time, they said that Iran cannot have access to nuclear weapons. 

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said that British forces were participating in coordinated defense efforts to protect the United Kingdom’s interests and allies, but were not taking part in the strikes. In a video statement posted on X, he said, “Our forces are active and British planes are in the sky today as part of coordinated regional defensive operations to protect our people, our interests and our allies, as Britain has done before, in line with international law.”
