ERDOGAN’S DAUGHTER: THE WORLD NEEDS KNOWLEDGE “PRODUCED IN… GAZA.”

Invoking the 1955 Bandung Conference, Erdoğan’s daughter called for a new intellectual “decolonization” of the global order.

“We are not gathered here to build another single center against the West, or for a world without the West. On the contrary, decolonization is an open invitation for the West to free itself from the superiority complex that has taken hold of it.”

She argued that the international system has reached the limits of knowledge produced in “Paris, London, New York and Amsterdam”, and said the world now needs new centers of knowledge in:
“Istanbul, Jakarta, Addis Ababa, Rabat, Cairo and Gaza.”

BREAKING:

The results from the 2025 PISA exams are in. The international standardized tests in science, mathematics and reading for 15 years old are taken every 3 years.

These are the top 5 EU countries:

Science

🇪🇪 Estonia - 527
🇫🇮 Finland - 504
🇮🇪 Ireland - 504
🇦🇹 Austria - 497
🇵🇱 Poland - 495

Mathematics

🇪🇪 Estonia - 508
🇮🇪 Ireland - 491
🇵🇱 Poland - 484
🇨🇿 Czechia - 483
🇦🇹 Austria - 483

Reading

🇮🇪 Ireland - 504
🇪🇪 Estonia - 499
🇫🇮 Finland - 486
🇵🇱 Poland - 482
🇨🇿 Czechia - 474

The results have been dropping globally compared to the result 3 years ago, with particularly big drops in Europe. Reading skills have taken the largest hit, with the declining trend of book reading speeding up and AI use for homework reaching all-time highs.

OFFICIAL STATEMENT BY SERGEY LAVROV:

🔘Any foreign military facilities or personnel in military uniform on Ukrainian territory will be considered a legitimate target for Russia — Lavrov

🔘He advised remembering Putin's words that in the event of a European attack on Russia, the war would be "completely different and very short."

📢Other statements by the Russian Foreign Minister:

🔘 People like Merz sincerely consider Russia a threat; this is not a slip of the tongue — they have not disowned their Nazi ancestors who committed war crimes;

🔘The new sanctions imposed by the US administration against Russia are hardly consistent with the sentiments that the Americans are conveying during negotiations;

🔘 Witkoff and Kushner are not demanding anything unfair or impossible from Russia in the negotiations on Ukraine;

🔘 Russia is open to negotiations, but will not cease accomplishing its tasks by military means during the course of them.

🚨 IRAN LAUNCHES MAJOR MISSILE BARRAGE AT U.S. BASES IN JORDAN

Iran launched a substantial missile barrage toward U.S. military bases in Jordan after three Iranian tankers were struck near Kharg Island and Jask.

Dozens of interceptors were launched as Iran reportedly used cluster warheads. Explosions were heard as far away as Eilat, Israel.

Ahead of the retaliation, the IRGC Navy warned tanker crews in Kuwaiti and Bahraini ports to urgently evacuate their vessels.

Iran continues to try to hit U.S. naval ships.

For every time they try to do that, they are going to lose tankers.

I think you will see that again today.

"Our family continues to be devastated... We were screaming from the rooftops, but nobody listened."

Despite 17 desperate attempts by his family to share crucial health information with doctors, 37-year-old Michael Hanley was tragically killed by a train just hours after being discharged from an acute mental health unit in Sligo. Michael was an exceptionally bright, gentle man—a Queens University and Bristol graduate who carried the heavy burden of an acquired brain injury and alcohol struggles, yet was deeply adored by his heartbroken family. Following his inquest, a jury has issued an urgent recommendation to review adult mental health retention laws so that clinical staff are compelled to listen to terrified relatives. No family should ever have to fight this hard to save someone they love, only to be left picking up the pieces.

Rest in peace Michael, sincere condolences to his family and all who love him.
