"We want to live without hunger and with rights" is the slogan of feminist and LGBTQI+ movements in Argentina. The groups held a march against austerity with workers' unions joining in solidarity.
The march was part of Pride month and occurred as the Congress of Argentina was voting on parts of Javier Milei's austerity plan, during which the Chamber of Deputies voted to reject partially.
Protesters linked Milei's austerity plans with the increased suffering of women and LGBTQIA communities. Also prominent were tributes to three lesbian women who were murdered last month in the Barracas district of Buenos Aires.

Serbia’s elections reflect splits within the imperialist system.
As is the case in smaller, oppressed countries, the elections in Serbia represented a false choice to voters. While all political parties market themselves as serving the national interest of Serbia, they really just represent competing imperialist interests in the region.
The ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) likes to speak of a so-called “neutrality” regarding geopolitical power struggles. For this reason, it justified abstaining from imposing sanctions on Russia after its invasion of Ukraine.
In reality, it has been playing all sides in a bid to advance its interests as the comprador bourgeoisie. But imperialists are not well known for their ability to share the spoils with their competitors. So, how much longer will the Serbian government be allowed to continue this charade?

Happy 93rd birthday to the Cuban revolutionary icon, Raúl Castro! From a guerrilla fighter in the early days of the Cuban Revolution to the presidential successor to his brother and comrade, Fidel Castro, Raúl is among the most influential in communist history.
Raul, a rebellious student, turned to Marxism-Leninism while in exile in Mexico with his friend Che Guevara. Shortly afterward, he fearlessly led a guerrilla fight in Cuba against the troops of the US-backed dictator Batista.
Raúl can be credited with an earlier commitment to socialism when compared to his brother Fidel, who initially leaned more nationalist in his politics.
Following the revolution’s victory, he modernized Cuba’s “Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias” into the most modern army in Latin America. At the time, Raúl became the youngest defense minister in the world.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Raúl Castro played a crucial role in ensuring Cuba’s survival.

A fierce encounter between pro-Pakistan Kashmiri militants and Indian security forces has erupted in Pulwama’s Nehama village in Indian-occupied Kashmir. Two Lashkar-e-Tayyiba (LeT) militants opened fire on Indian police, army, and paramilitary personnel as they cordoned off the town, trapping the hiding militants inside.
As a result of the ensuing gunfight, the house where the militants were trapped caught fire and the fighting has since come to a halt. However, there is still no confirmation regarding whether the militants have been killed.
With thousands of members, LeT (“Army of the Righteous”), is one of the largest Kashmiri militant groups. Since 1993, the group has conducted numerous attacks against Indian troops in Indian-occupied Kashmir as well as several high-profile attacks inside India itself.
The two militants involved in the clash are said to include a LeT commander who has long been on the radar of Indian security forces.

India’s far-right BJP is leading in the polls as the South Asian country counts the votes of the largest-ever election in history. However, the BJP could still fall short of a majority as the united opposition led by the Indian National Congress makes gains.
The BJP, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has been at the helm of the country for a total of 16 years. During their rule, the party’s policies have had a profound impact, turning the country into a living nightmare for many.
Exit polls suggest Modi could return to power for a third consecutive term. Does this mean darker days lie ahead?

The Berlin anti-Shah protester Benno Ohnesorg was shot dead at point-blank range by the West German policeman Karl-Heinz Kurras with a bullet in the back of his head on this day in 1967.
The murder was a turning point for the radicalizing left-wing student movement of the late 1960s, but also a new high point in the collusion between the German press and the police under their common anti-communist objective.
Ohnesorg took part in protests against the visit of the Persian Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, who was particularly despised by the global student movement due to his crackdown on progressive forces.
The shot to the back of the head was in many ways the decisive escalation point that led to the creation of the left-wing Red Army Faction guerrilla organization in West Germany.
Germany's number one publishing house, the far-right “Springer,” tried to sell what is today described as the “targeted murder” of Ohnesorg as a justified response by the policeman.

The notorious “Sylt video” showing Germany’s Prosecco elite partying and chanting Nazi slogans is just the tip of the iceberg. The unofficially dubbed “re-migration hype” song is now going viral. It’s unclear how many similar incidents occurred that did not go viral.
While the international reaction to the Sylt video was dominated mainly by outrage, in many cases the German media tended to come to the defense of those shown. In this video, we take a closer look at the extent to which the German media’s reaction is at odds with their defamatory coverage of Palestinian protests in Germany in recent months.
