GB News: Yvette Cooper calls for 'nationwide blitz' on asylum seekers taking jobs after being 'shamed' into action
The Home Office in the UK has initiated a "nationwide blitz" targeting asylum seekers working illegally, particularly those employed by food delivery services while living in taxpayer-funded accommodations. This crackdown follows reports of individuals earning money while awaiting asylum claims, which is illegal.
Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp criticized the government for not acting sooner and highlighted evidence of illegal working from asylum hotels. The Home Office warned that those caught could lose their accommodation and support, while businesses employing unauthorized workers may face significant fines. Deliveroo, Just Eat, and Uber Eats have pledged to enhance verification processes to prevent illegal working.

Le Monde: Paris shuts Seine swim spots day after reopening due to rain
The Seine River in Paris briefly reopened for public swimming on July 5, 2025, after a century-long ban, following extensive cleanup efforts. However, rain on July 6 led to the temporary closure of three swimming sites due to water quality concerns, as the city's sewage system overflowed.
City officials will monitor the river daily for pollution levels, particularly for harmful bacteria. The reopening is part of a legacy from the Paris 2024 Olympics, which saw significant investment in improving water quality, although record rainfall during the Games caused several competitions to be canceled.

Times Of Israel: Herzog urges Netanyahu to brave ‘difficult’ choice on Gaza deal ahead of Trump meet
President Isaac Herzog urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to consider "painful" concessions during his upcoming talks in Washington regarding a hostage deal and ceasefire in Gaza. This comes amid internal opposition from hardliners in Netanyahu's coalition, who demand continued military action against Hamas.
As negotiations proceed, a team is in Qatar for indirect talks with Hamas, which has expressed a positive response to a proposed agreement involving the release of hostages. Netanyahu's office has deemed some of Hamas's demands unacceptable, while Herzog emphasized the urgency of reaching a breakthrough.
