Nearly 2,900 deaths across the United Kingdom have been linked to periods of excessive heat during May and June, according to new interim figures from the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), with officials warning this year's toll could become the highest ever recorded if hot weather continues.

President Donald Trump said Saturday that he has agreed to hold off on planned US military strikes against Iran after being told a deal may be within reach. In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed the United States was "locked and loaded and ready to go" against the Islamic Republic "at levels of Military Terror, Strength, and Power not seen since World War II."

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.

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.
