The suspect, 71-year-old Jurak Cintula, said he allegedly shot Fico over free speech rights, which he says Fico is infringing on. Slovak authorities have been quick to claim Cintula acted alone.

CAIRO/RAFAH: Israeli tanks and warplanes bombarded areas of Rafah on Thursday, Palestinian residents said, after US President Joe Biden vowed to withhold weapons from Israel if its forces launch a major invasion of the southern Gaza city.
As ceasefire talks continued in Cairo, Palestinian militant groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad said their fighters fired anti-tank rockets and mortars at Israeli tanks massed on the eastern outskirts of the city.
Residents and medics in Rafah, the biggest urban area in Gaza not yet overrun by Israeli ground forces, said an Israeli attack by a mosque killed at least three people and wounded others in the eastern Brazil neighbourhood.
Video footage from the scene showed the minaret lying in the rubble, two bodies wrapped in blankets and a wounded man being carried away.

An adviser to Iran’s supreme leader recently declared that Iran would alter its nuclear doctrine if Israel posed a threat to its existence, adding yet another layer of complexity to the ongoing debate surrounding Tehran’s nuclear ambitions. Despite Iran’s consistent claims of pursuing a peaceful nuclear program, Western governments remain sceptical, suspecting ulterior motives behind Iran’s nuclear endeavours. This ongoing dispute has resulted in enduring sanctions and heightened tensions on the global stage.

He did it again. If there is one person from whom any pro-Hamas supporter should run regarding guest spots on any show, it’s Mosab Yousef. He’s the son of Hassan Yousef, the co-founder of Hamas. Mosab defected to Israel in 1997 and worked for Shin Bet, Israel’s domestic intelligence agency, for ten years. He’s a former militant with exceptional insight into the radical mind of the propaganda Hamas disseminates daily.
So, when he hears the chants of ‘intifada,’ ‘free Palestine,’ and other pro-Hamas talking points, he lays waste to them with ease. On Piers Morgan’s show, Yousef took a blowtorch to Abby Martin’s pro-Hamas nonsense, shutting her down completely, even claiming that she doesn’t have the credibility to be a journalist if she’s going to peddle terrorist talking points.
Yousef laid it all out: he fought against Hamas, he saved lives, and he’s not going to take claims that Israel is committing genocide, a Hamas talking point, without redirecting some fire. After calling her a low-grade journalist and dismissing the now-debunked claims of genocide, Yousef went a step further that would indeed trigger the pro-terrorist college kids right now: there’s no such thing as Palestine.
EPIC TAKEDOWN 🔥🔥🔥

Myanmar’s junta on Wednesday denied a request by former Cambodian leader Hun Sen for talks with democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who has been detained since a 2021 coup.
Suu Kyi has largely been hidden from view since the military detained her as they seized power in a putsch that has plunged the country into turmoil.
The junta has rebuffed numerous requests by foreign leaders and diplomats to meet the Nobel laureate, 78, who has reportedly suffered health problems during more than three years in detention.
On Tuesday Hun Sen, who ruled Cambodia for nearly four decades before stepping down last year, said he had requested a meeting with Suu Kyi during video talks with junta chief Min Aung Hlaing.
But the junta had “no reason to facilitate it at this moment,” junta spokesman Zaw Min Tun said in an audio message released by the military’s information team.
