Southern Israel, looking towards Gaza Strip - 3 June 2025

2. Wide of explosion over Gaza Strip

STORYLINE:

A large smoke plume was seen rising over the Gaza Strip early on Tuesday.

An explosion was also seen lighting up the night sky over the Gaza Strip, overnight Tuesday.

Israel ended the ceasefire in March after Hamas refused to change the agreement to release more hostages sooner.

Israeli strikes have killed thousands of Palestinians since then, according to Gaza's Health Ministry.

Hamas-led militants killed some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and took 251 people hostage in the Oct. 7, 2023, attack into Israel that ignited the war.

They are still holding 58 hostages, a third of them believed to be alive, after most of the rest were released in ceasefire agreements or other deals.

Israel's military campaign has killed over 54,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, which does not say how many of the dead were civilians or combatants. Israel says it has killed around 20,000 militants, without providing evidence.

STORYLINE:

The Hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, is a once-in-a-lifetime obligation for Muslims who are physically and financially able to perform it. It’s a deeply spiritual journey — one that pilgrims dream of for years — but it is also physically demanding and emotionally intense.

Pilgrims carry out the five-day ritual outdoors, often under searing heat, among massive crowds.

Many walk over 25 kilometers (15 miles) in a single day, navigating unfamiliar languages, routines, and environments.

There is little privacy, and personal space is rare. Despite the physical strain, for many, the experience is life-changing.

Among the crowd this year is Belhajj Beafo, a pilgrim from Algeria.

“This is my first time performing Hajj,” he said, eyes filled with emotion. “May God enable me, God willing… The rituals have been completed, and we hope that Hajj will be performed by everyone who wishes for it.”

For Layla Saad, a pilgrim from Egypt, the journey is both spiritual and deeply personal.

“My first prayer, God willing, will be for the people of Gaza and the people of Sudan,” she said. “God willing, our Lord will spare the bloodshed of all Arab countries.”

STORYLINE:

A man armed with a makeshift flamethrower and other incendiary devices launched a fiery attack on demonstrators in Colorado who were calling for the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza. Twelve people were injured and the FBI described the violence as a “targeted terror attack.”

The suspect, identified by the FBI as 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman, yelled “Free Palestine” during the attack Sunday, according to Mark Michalek, the special agent in charge of the FBI’s Denver field office. Authorities believe Soliman acted alone.

He has been charged with multiple state counts and a federal a hate crime.

Alexandra Posnock, a Colorado State University student, left flowers at the scene to honor the victims. “The scene was so ugly yesterday — I wanted to make it beautiful and show that life continues,” she said.

She wasn’t shocked by the violence. “This keeps happening in New York, at protests. Jews are being attacked,” she said.

“We can’t stay silent. We have to confront this ideology before it gets worse.”

Ethan Babbage, a resident of Arvada, described the scene as heartbreaking but said he was holding it with loving awareness and sending prayers.

Authorities said the attacker targeted volunteers with Run for Their Lives, which organizes running and walking events to call for the immediate release of Israelis being held in Gaza. The hostages were captured by militants during an incursion into southern Israel in 2023 that precipitated the latest Israel-Hamas war.

The group gathered Sunday at the Pearl Street pedestrian mall, a four-block area in downtown Boulder frequented by tourists and students. Witnesses said the suspect first used the flame thrower, then threw two Molotov cocktails into the crowd. Soliman was arrested at the scene.

6. Various aerial shots of protest ++MUTE++

STORYLINE:

Doctors, residents, and administrative staff from Garrahan Hospital, Argentina’s leading pediatric center, protested on Monday, demanding salary increases from President Javier Milei’s government.

Meanwhile, in a context of growing discontent among health professionals, a federal prosecutor opened an investigation into the health minister for alleged arbitrary management of the hospital, which is considered a cancer centre of excellence.

The discontent was particularly concentrated among doctors at the hospital after the government, which funds it 80 per cent, announced over the weekend a pay rise for resident doctors, which would take their income from $660 to $1,083 a month as of 1 July.

The increase for residents, which has not yet been made official, would leave more than 90% of the hospital's permanent staff out of the eventual salary negotiations, ‘which makes the conflict grow and is leading to the possibility of new strikes and demonstrations tomorrow,’ Alejandro Lipcovich, secretary general of Garrahan's internal board of workers, told The Associated Press on Monday.

The unrest at Garrahan reflects broader dissatisfaction among healthcare professionals under Milei’s ultraliberal administration, which has prioritized deep public spending cuts to fight inflation. Garrahan staff have highlighted the deteriorating work conditions, pointing to nearly 200 resignations due to low wages that are no longer sufficient to cover basic living costs.

"Korean politics is in a state where cooperation and bipartisan governance are not functioning. Politicians refuse to embrace policies if they were from their opponents. I hope they can embrace opponents' policies if they are good policies. The next leader should be able to embrace good policies even if they are from opponents."

5. Various of people casting their ballots

STORYLINE:

Millions of South Koreans are voting Tuesday for a new president in a snap election triggered by the ouster of Yoon Suk Yeol, a conservative who now faces an explosive trial on rebellion charges over his short-lived imposition of martial law in December.

Pre-election surveys suggested Yoon’s liberal archrival, Lee Jae-myung, appeared headed for an easy win, riding on deep public frustration over the conservatives in the wake of Yoon’s martial law debacle.

The main conservative candidate, Kim Moon Soo, has struggled to win over moderate, swing voters as his People Power Party remains in a quagmire of internal feuding over how to view Yoon’s actions.

"Our society has been filled with anxiety and division. I hope the next president can unite this divided society and show a new path," said 47-year-old office worker Yoon Hyun Ku, outside a polling station in Seoul.

This election serves as another defining moment in the country’s resilient democracy, but observers worry a domestic divide worsened by Yoon is far from over and could pose a big political burden on the new president.

The past six months saw large crowds of people rallying in the streets to either denounce or support Yoon, while a leadership vacuum caused by Yoon’s impeachment and ensuing formal dismissal rattled the country’s high-level diplomatic activities and financial markets.

The winning candidate will immediately be sworn in as president Wednesday for a single, full term of five years without the typical two-month transition period. The new president will face major challenges including a slowing economy, President Donald Trump’s America-first policies and North Korea’s evolving nuclear threats.

The election commission says voting began at 6 a.m. at 14,295 polling stations nationwide that will close at 8 p.m. Observers say the winner could emerge as early as midnight.

He played it during the band's infamous MTV Unplugged performance.

It's now the centrepiece for a new exhibition at London's Royal College of Music.

Leading rock journalist Alan di Perna has helped curate the show and says the instrument is an important part of Cobain's legacy.
