Rwanda has agreed to accept up to 250 illegal immigrants deported from the U.S. as part of the Trump administration's strategy to send deportees to third countries. This follows recent deportations to South Sudan and Eswatini, with ongoing efforts to establish similar agreements with other African nations.
The U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled in favor of the administration's authority to deport certain migrants to countries outside their homelands. Rwanda's previous agreement with the U.K. to accept asylum seekers was deemed unlawful due to safety concerns.

GB News: Donald Trump receives boost amid efforts to ban trans athletes from women's sports ahead of 2028 Olympics

This policy aligns with an executive order aimed at prohibiting transgender participation in female athletics, as states like California face legal challenges for their inclusive policies. As the 2028 Olympics approach, tensions surrounding transgender participation in sports continue to rise, with immigration law now a significant factor.

The Economist: MAGA’s disenchantment with Israel
Discontent is growing among Republicans regarding unwavering support for Israel, traditionally a stronghold of bipartisan agreement. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson recently reaffirmed this commitment during a visit to Jerusalem, but signs of division are emerging within the GOP.
As Democrats have long shown fractures over their stance on Israel, the Republican party may also face challenges in maintaining a unified front. This shift could signal a broader reevaluation of foreign policy priorities among conservatives.

The Telegraph: Denmark to tear down Copenhagen’s ‘pornographic’ mermaid statue
A statue known as the Big Mermaid in Copenhagen will be removed after complaints that it is "pornographic" and vulgar. The 13ft statue, unveiled in 2006, has faced criticism for its sexualized depiction of women and will be taken down due to its incompatibility with the cultural heritage of Dragør Fort.

Le Monde: A Hiroshima survivor breaks decades of silence: 'Speaking about it could be seen as shameful, for the person or their family'
Toshiko Tanaka, a survivor of the Hiroshima atomic bombing at age 6, recalls the traumatic day when she witnessed the flash that changed her life. For 65 years, she kept her memories private but now advocates for nuclear disarmament, sharing her story globally with her daughter’s support.
Tanaka, now 86, has suffered chronic fatigue from radiation exposure and emphasizes the importance of remembering the past to prevent future tragedies. Her advocacy work highlights the impact of nuclear weapons and the need for a peaceful world.
The Imaginative Conservative: The Bomb at 80
The U.S. decision to drop atomic bombs on Japan in 1945 remains a contentious topic. Following Germany's surrender, American forces focused on the Pacific, preparing for a potential invasion of Japan, which military leaders feared would result in massive casualties. The Manhattan Project, initiated to develop nuclear weapons, culminated in successful tests of atomic bombs, leading President Truman to authorize their use to hasten Japan's surrender.
Public opinion largely supported the bombings, viewing them as a means to end the war swiftly and save American lives. Critics argue that the bomb was also a tool to assert U.S. power in the postwar era and intimidate the Soviet Union. Some historians contend Japan was already on the verge of defeat, suggesting alternative routes to peace could have been explored.
