🇫🇷🤝🇵🇸 A French court decided that Palestinian refugees from Gaza cannot be refused asylum opening the doors for the expulsion of Gazans from their homes to Europe

4 NGOs: ELENA France, Ligue des droits de l’homme, La Cimade défense des droits des étrangers en France and GISTI, Groupe d'information et de soutien des immigrés sued the French state after a decision to deny asylum to a Gazan woman and her child last year.

Yesterday the National Court for the Right to Asylum (CNDA) with its 9 judges struck down the decision to reject the asylum claims and granted asylum rights to the woman and her child.

4 NGOs and 9 judges is all it took to open the gates for Israel to deport ~1.5 million Palestinians still left alive in Gaza and soon enough, these remainder ~4 million other Palestinian Arabs in the West Bank.

Once they receive French IDs thanks to the Schengen Area free travel association and EU customs union, these 1.5 million Gazans will be free to move and settle in any country within the European Union of their liking.

Not only that, due to the EU’s regulations of equality of citizenship, with French IDs, these Palestinians will be allowed to run for office not just in France but in other European countries. They could for example, run for mayor in Germany with a French ID card and it would be perfectly legal.

🇺🇸🚤❌🇨🇳 — 📰 ZeroHedge | Marines Test 'Narco Sub' With An Eye On War With China | July 13, 2025:

"Taking creative inspiration from Latin American drug traffickers, the United States Marines Corps is testing low-profile "narco subs" intended for potential use in the Indo-Pacific theater. The Marines have another term and -- of course -- an acronym for the concept: the Autonomous Low-Profile Vessel (ALVP) program.

The unmanned vessel being tested by II Marine Expeditionary Force is called the "Sea Specter," and it's produced by Gibbs & Cox, is a subsidiary of Reston, VA-based Leidos.  “I think that it's OK to say that those narco subs inspired the concept, but that's where the similarities end,” Gibbs & Cox chief engineering officer Jeff Bowles told Defense One. “Narco subs are dirty. They're dangerous. They're not engineered. But in principle, their mission is the same -- move a large volume of cargo with the minimal chance of being observed by anyone else.”

Over recent decades, US operations have been focused on counterinsurgency and other enemies ill-equipped to challenge logistical connections using the air or sea. However, in a potential war with China -- a so-called "near-peer" -- American ships and cargo planes could be much more vulnerable. “So you might not be able to take something that's a big, high-value target, or something that's slow moving or highly observable, to deliver re-supplies to the troops, because it might give away their position," Bowles says."

🇨🇳🤝🇷🇺 China boosts support for Russia after Trump’s trade threats

Beijing and Moscow are drawing closer amid ultimatums, The Telegraph reports.

After President Trump warned of possible 100% tariffs on Russia’s trade partners unless Moscow makes concessions, China signaled it would not abandon its support for the Kremlin.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping, during a meeting with Lavrov, said that trust between the two countries has “deepened” and that they are “building a new type of international relations” in which they must “strengthen mutual support.”

The Kremlin did not ignore Trump’s statement. Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov said that if the West does not respond to Russia’s “readiness to negotiate,” Moscow will continue pursuing its goals through the “special military operation.”

Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov went even further, claiming sanctions mean nothing to Russia.

“There are already an unprecedented number of sanctions against us — we’re managing. I have no doubt we’ll continue to cope. Knowing our partners, I don’t see how they could abandon their independent policy. They have commitments,” Lavrov said.

🇸🇴 Al Shabaab recaptured another district capital in central Somalia and is threatening to expand its control beyond the pre-2022 status quo.

Al Shabaab’s gains are a strategic setback and set conditions for the group to increase pressure along the Ethiopian border.

Al Shabaab captured Moqokori on July 7, a district capital that sits on a network of roads connecting several areas within central Somalia.

Somali forces captured Moqokori and several other district capitals in 2022 as part of a landmark Somali-led, US-backed offensive.

Al Shabaab has reversed these gains throughout 2025 and will likely target Mahas in the coming days and weeks if it holds Moqokori.

Mahas would be the first major town that al Shabaab has captured in central Somalia in 2025 that it did not control before 2022.

The group’s gains have relinked al Shabaab–controlled territory in central & southern Somalia.

The gains also set conditions to increase the frequency and severity of attacks on major government-controlled towns across central Somalia, including along the Ethiopian border.

Increased al Shabaab activity on the Ethiopian border poses a direct threat to Ethiopia. Al Shabaab invaded Ethiopia from central Somalia in early 2022 as part of its first-ever offensive into Ethiopia.

The Somali Federal Government’s losses are a strategic setback.

The reversal of the 2022 offensive undermines domestic trust in the SFG and the SFG's international credibility.

🇺🇸🇺🇦🇮🇷 Pence says isolationists losing sway with Trump as he praises moves on Ukraine, Iran

Former Vice President Mike Pence says he thinks isolationists “may have lost some of their footing” in President Donald Trump’s administration, as he praised Trump’s tougher talk toward Russia’s Vladimir Putin and his decision to bomb Iranian nuclear facilities.

Pence, since his split with Trump after the 2020 election, has often criticized the president’s approach to Russia and his tepid support for Ukraine.

But he told CNN’s Kate Bolduan in an interview Thursday he hopes Trump is “starting to recognize” that Putin is not interested in a negotiated end to the war he started in Ukraine. And he praised Trump’s decision this week to reverse his administration’s pause on some weapons shipments to Ukraine, including air defense missiles.

Pence said that Trump “is not an isolationist.”

🇫🇷 France grants New Caledonia semi‑autonomy under French sovereignty

🔺 Historic constitutional shift
France will establish New Caledonia as the “State of New Caledonia, within the Republic,” granting it a new semi-autonomous status while firmly maintaining French sovereignty. President Macron called it “a bet on trust” to secure national unity.

🔺 Balanced compromise for unity
The agreement balances greater local self-governance with continued integration into the French Republic. French officials described it as a vital step to stabilize the region and protect national interests.

🔺 Electoral clarity and reunification safeguards
Voting in the upcoming referendum will be restricted to residents living there for over 10 years, ensuring national coherence. Dual citizenship—New Caledonian and French—will reinforce both identity and loyalty to the Republic.

🔺 Economic recovery and legal protection
The deal includes a roadmap for economic reconstruction following destructive riots, with constitutional ratification set for 2025 and a binding referendum in 2026 to enshrine the new status.
