    United States 250 anniversary: Immigration that helped define a nation
    Jul 2 2026
    The United States has drawn people from around the world – seeking opportunity, freedom and a chance to build something new. Many would go on to help shape the country's economy, culture, diplomacy and scientific achievements. As America prepares to mark a quarter millennium of history, Al Jazeera’s Manuel Rapalo looks at some of the immigrants whose contributions helped define the nation.

  • UK defence boost: Starmer sets out spending plan ahead of NATO summit

    UK defence boost: Starmer sets out spending plan ahead of NATO summit
    Jun 30 2026
    Britain has unveiled a four-year defence investment plan worth nearly $20bn to strengthen deterrence and reach 3.5% of GDP by 2035. Funding will expand nuclear capabilities, procure 12 F-35A jets and long‑range missiles, and back UK‑developed unmanned vessels to guard vulnerable subsea communications cables. NATO chief Mark Rutte called it a “good step”, yet spending is forecast at 2.7% next year, below the pledge. The plan follows delays and two defence ministers’ resignations.

  • Rescue teams race against time in Venezuela earthquake aftermath

    Rescue teams race against time in Venezuela earthquake aftermath
    Jul 1 2026
    Rescue teams are searching for survivors, including three teenagers believed to be trapped alive, following twin earthquakes that struck Venezuela. The worst-affected state of La Guaira has seen hundreds of coffins delivered to an improvised coastal morgue, with the government reporting around 2,000 deaths — a figure local destruction suggests may be far higher. US search and rescue teams from Fairfax County have joined efforts, bringing specialist equipment to cut through collapsed concrete. Families of the missing remain at the sites, refusing to abandon hope. Al Jazeera's Teresa Bo reports from La Guaira, Venezuela.

  • DRC Ebola response battles conflict, mistrust and testing delays

    DRC Ebola response battles conflict, mistrust and testing delays
    Jul 1 2026
    The Democratic Republic of Congo is battling an Ebola outbreak centred in Ituri and North Kivu provinces, where scientists are working around the clock to test blood samples. Ethnic tensions between farming and herding communities are fuelling mistrust, delaying testing and hampering containment efforts. Health officials are working to cut laboratory result times from 48 hours to as little as one hour by deploying testing machines to major treatment centres. There are cautious signs of progress, with more patients seeking treatment, falling death rates and improving recovery numbers.

  • Al Jazeera Special Coverage | Gaza: Promises and Reality – Humanitarian crisis deepens

    Al Jazeera Special Coverage | Gaza: Promises and Reality – Humanitarian crisis deepens
    Jul 1 2026
    Al Jazeera's special coverage, "Gaza: Promises and Reality," examines the gap between commitments made under the US-brokered ceasefire and the reality Palestinians face on the ground in Gaza. Over five days, the series explores how Israel's war on Gaza – which has killed more than 73,000 Palestinians, including at least 20,000 children – continues to reshape every aspect of life in the territory and its people. Day four focuses on the humanitarian crisis, the collapse of education, and the destruction of Gaza's agriculture. More than 97% of schools have been damaged or destroyed, with an estimated 700,000 children missing formal education for nearly three years. The World Bank estimates it will cost $870m to rebuild Gaza's education facilities. The humanitarian situation is catastrophic. Under the October ceasefire, a minimum of 600 aid trucks were meant to enter Gaza daily, but the UN says no more than about 100 now make it each day. Doctors Without Borders warn of alarming levels of malnutrition, with virtually all of Gaza facing food insecurity. Clean water has almost disappeared, and hospitals are barely functioning. Agriculture has also been devastated. More than 94% of agricultural land has been damaged, leaving only about 5% available for cultivation. The total cultivated area has fallen from approximately 9,300 hectares to just 400 hectares. Farmers continue to struggle as essential supplies remain blocked, threatening Gaza's food supply and economy.

  • Trump: Iran 'doing fine' on MOU as Doha talks continue

    Trump: Iran 'doing fine' on MOU as Doha talks continue
    Jul 1 2026
    US President Donald Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews that Iran is "doing fine" regarding compliance with the memorandum of understanding, adding that the US "hit them very hard last week." He said the meetings on the Iran-US indirect talks in Doha are going well and that the goal remains "the denuclearization of Iran," stressing that "Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon." Trump was asked about potentially returning to an all-out war with Iran but did not confirm any plans, instead pivoting to discuss US economic achievements. Meanwhile, technical talks between Iran and the US continue in Doha, with Qatar and Pakistan mediating, as both sides work to implement the MoU.
