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.

Shocking video shows the UK Ambassador to Mexico pointing an assault rifle at his Mexican employee. It has since been reported that the Ambassador, Jon Benjamin, was fired after the incident which took place during an official trip to the northern Mexican states of Durango and Sinaloa.
Despite being removed from his post, Benjamin remains an employee of the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO). The FCDO has said it has taken “appropriate action” vis a vis Benjamin putting an assault rifle in the face of an embassy employee.
The video was shared on social media by an X account known only as "subdiplomatic".
Subdiplomatic also contacted red. and alleged that Benjamin and the UK Embassy have a history of racially motivated abuse towards their Mexican employees.

French troops in helicopters appear to open fire on Indigenous protesters in New Caledonia, as seen in footage circulating on Social Media.
Helicopters were already being used to transport supplies to the security forces, but using them to shoot at protesters would pose a further escalation.
This comes as French President Emmanuel Macron had already announced plans to send more helicopters and armed vehicles to crush pro-independence protests.
Six people have been killed so far by French colonial security forces.
The anti-colonial uprising began in rejection of French plans to dilute the voting power of the Indigenous population by allowing French settlers to vote in local elections.

Soup kitchen organizers in Argentina held a protest to denounce the government's cuts to their food banks.
Under the last government, social movements were given budgets and food supplies to organize soup kitchens in working-class neighborhoods. However, since "libertarian" President Javier Milei took power, that program has been abolished and the soup kitchens are now empty.
The Milei government still has warehouses with food supplies left over from the last government but is refusing to hand them over to the organizers. In fact, the government is pressing charges against some groups, such as "Polo Obrero," for having received government money to distribute food.
Milei's free-market agenda has left the country with an annual inflation rate of 287%, the highest of any country worldwide. Poverty has risen to 55%, up from 41% when he took office.

There are more foreign troops in Africa than during colonization, says Senegalese diplomat Abdoulaye Bathily.
Despite achieving nominal independence, he says, Africa continues to be reliant on foreign powers politically, economically, and militarily. These so-called “partners,” like the US, European Union, China, and Russia, have for decades claimed they are interested in “helping Africa develop.” Yet people in Africa remain starving, their lands depleted, and the environment polluted.
Bathily names the comprador bourgeoisie as a key enabler of these neo-colonial relationships. They are more than happy to sell out the people and line their own pockets. He also points out that many African countries are a sight of inter-imperialist struggle between foreign powers.
To achieve true liberation, Bathily emphasizes the need for Africa to break these colonial ties and chart a new course forward.

German police continue to crack down on protests against Israel’s crimes in Gaza. Yesterday, police officers again brutally attacked a protest in the capital of Germany. Several protesters were beaten and arrested, and some of them needed medical aid due to the police’s brutality during their arrests. At least one ambulance arrived on the scene to treat a protester.
An activist told red. media that some protesters were severely beaten. Others that were arrested were not taken to the police station but instead released in another location, a practice that has occurred several times as of late. The activist also mentioned that many officers removed their identification numbers in order to avoid being identified for their violence and brutality.

In recent weeks, red-clad crowds have taken to South Africa’s streets. Julius Malema’s self-described Marxist-Leninist Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party has been holding rallies in the lead up to one of the country's most contested elections since the fall of apartheid.
Since then, the legacy of racial and economic inequality has plagued the country. High levels of unemployment, power cuts, water shortages, and violent crime have seen a loss of faith in the ruling African National Congress . As parties like the EFF gain momentum, experts say the African National Congress may lose its majority for the first time since Nelson Mandela’s leadership.

“It looks like they came to kill.” — French security forces are said to have taken back control over New Caledonia’s capital, Nouméa. At the same time, eyewitness reports of excessive police violence are increasing, including allegations that French forces are shooting at and abducting Indigenous protesters.
French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin said that “a major police operation has taken place successfully” in the Riviere-Salee district of Nouméa, the last area of the Pacific archipelago’s capital under pro-independence protesters’ control. Darmanin said that around 400 officers, including elite anti-terrorism and anti-organized crime police, as well as military units had cleared 26 barricades and arrested 12 people as part of the operation.
At least seven people have already been killed, hundreds wounded, and hundreds more arrested after pro-independence protests erupted across New Caledonia.

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.

US and British airstrikes killed at least 16 civilians in Yemen and injured 35 others, according to local media.
The airstrikes come a day after Ansarallah shot down a US drone over Yemen's Marib province using a surface-to-air missile.
Earlier, Yemen's Ansarallah intensified its military operation against Israel and its allies in response to Israel's horrifying massacre in Rafah less than a week ago.
Ansarallah media said it targeted 10 ships affiliated with the US, UK, and Israel in the Red, Arabian, and Mediterranean seas, as well as the Indian Ocean.
Yemen's leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi stated that the "number of ships targeted since the beginning of the support operations for Gaza reached 129."
At the turn of the year, the US and UK began attacking Yemen after Ansarallah launched a naval blockade against Israel's access to the Red Sea. They continue to demand an end to the extermination war against Gaza.

The grip of Sudan's war on the town of El Fasher in the Darfur region tightens as the military standoff between the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and Sudan's armed forces rages on.
The first RSF offensives were repelled by the military, resulting in a days-long battle for El Fasher.
Some 18 million people across the country are facing hunger and five million are on the brink of famine. The World Food Program reported that 1,200 metric tons of food supplies for some 116,000 people are being transported to the Darfur region to ease the emergency.
Town after town has fallen into the hands of the RSF. The city of El Fasher is considered the last bastion of the Sudanese military in western Sudan.
The RSF's military advances are accompanied by ethnic cleansing against Sudan's non-Arab population, Human Rights Watch reports.

What’s behind Taiwan’s chaotic parliamentarian power struggle? Since the inauguration of President Lai Ching-te, political parties in Taiwan have been battling for influence. Their main difference is whose arms they want to run to: China’s or the US’.
The bills recently passed by the opposition parties significantly reduce presidential powers and bestow the legislature with additional authority. The passage of the bills was so controversial that a member of the Taiwanese parliament tried to run away with the bills during a session in order to prevent them from being passed.
US-Chinese tensions are running high regarding Taiwan. Beijing recently conducted large-scale military exercises around the island while US presidential candidate Donald Trump suggested that “he would have bombed [...] Beijing if [...] China invaded Taiwan.”

Indigenous-led mass protests joined by 100,000 participants erupted across New Zealand against anti-Māori reforms by the right-wing government under Prime Minister Christopher Luxon.
A proposed budget plan includes the removal of the Māori Health Authority and the renaming of some governmental departments from Māori to English.
The government is also considering slashing the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi, an agreement between the British colonial power and Māori chiefs that protects the rights of Indigenous people.
The Te Pāti Māori party has now issued what it says is a declaration of political independence. This will include the formation of a separate parliament for Māori if the reforms are implemented, as well as further mobilization and resistance.
New Zealand's first inhabitants, the Māori, make up almost one million people on the South Pacific island nation, which has a total population of five million.
