The gloves are off in the Middle East. Donald Trump hasn't held back, issuing a chilling ultimatum to Hamas.

Trump Hamas Gaza ceasefire 2025: Geopolitical Brinkmanship
While rhetoric heats up in Washington, the humanitarian situation in Gaza has reached a breaking point. Heavy rains have flooded displacement camps, leaving countless families without shelter. Simultaneously, China is flexing its muscles in East Asia, conducting a second day of live-fire drills around Taiwan. The timing isn't accidental; it's a clear message to the West during a period of perceived leadership transition.

The geopolitical map is being redrawn elsewhere too. Yemen's presidential council just scrapped a major defense deal with the UAE, signaling a shift in regional loyalties. In Bangladesh, the death of first female PM Khaleda Zia at 79 marks the conclusion of a turbulent political chapter. Meanwhile, Syria has unveiled new banknotes in a desperate bid to kickstart its war-torn economy, showing that the drive for survival persists despite the chaos.
