Cricket legend Imran Khan is rotting to death in a tiny jail cell in Pakistan. It's time Britain used its influence to help free him

The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
Last week, there were two alleged plots to attack Muslim mosques and events uncovered by police in the UK. So why did they not grab national headlines or force government ministers into action?

The lawyer for one of Gaza’s most prominent doctors, Hussam Abu Safiya, who has been detained in Israel since 2024, has raised concerns about his physical deterioration.
A UN human rights body has called for his immediate release, as his lawyer warned that his life is in imminent danger.
First image of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya from his court hearing currently taking place before the Israeli military court in occupied Jerusalem.
The image shows Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya in a state of severe exhaustion and clear physical deterioration after more than a year of detention and deprivation of his freedom.
Visible marks and physical changes can also be observed on his hands and arms, raising further concerns about his health condition and the circumstances of his detention, particularly in light of previous reports documenting ill-treatment and the denial of adequate medical care.
What is evident in this image reinforces the growing concerns for Dr. Hussam’s health and well-being and underscores the urgent need to guarantee his fundamental rights, provide him with the necessary medical care, and secure his immediate release.
أول صورة للدكتور حسام أبو صفية من جلسة محاكمته الجارية الآن أمام المحكمة العسكرية الإسرائيلية في القدس المحتلة.
تُظهر الصورة الدكتور حسام أبو صفية في حالةٍ من الإرهاق الشديد والتدهور الجسدي الواضح بعد أكثر من عام على اعتقاله وحرمانه من حريته.
كما تُلاحظ علامات وتغيرات جسدية واضحة على يديه وذراعيه، ما يثير مزيدًا من القلق بشأن حالته الصحية وظروف احتجازه، خاصة في ظل التقارير السابقة التي وثّقت سوء المعاملة والحرمان من الرعاية الطبية المناسبة.
إن ما يظهر في هذه الصورة يعزز المخاوف المتزايدة على صحة الدكتور حسام وسلامته، ويؤكد الحاجة الملحّة إلى ضمان حقوقه الأساسية وتوفير الرعاية الطبية اللازمة له، والإفراج عنه فورًا.
