Ban on Palestine Action was lawful, court of appeal rules
In her written judgment, she said: “The future threats and risks posed to third-party individuals and property by Palestine Action are perhaps the most important factors to weigh in the balance. In that connection, it is important to understand that the home secretary is in the best position to assess those future threats and risks. She is advised by experts in anti-terrorism …

EU developing rules to ‘bite hard’ if new members go rogue, says enlargement chief
The European Commission already “has some ideas” on how to strengthen the system, she said, including safeguards and transition periods before certain membership rights are fully granted. The EU executive is consulting member countries concerned that future enlargements could complicate decision-making or allow governments to reverse reforms after accession.

Settler products from occupied Palestine sold to Europe as Israeli, investigation finds
Israeli exporters to Europe regularly hide the origin of produce grown in occupied Palestine to qualify for unlawful tax breaks that bolster the settler economy, a rights group investigation has found. The legal non-profit Global Echo analysed more than 30,000 export documents for thousands of Israeli shipments to the UK and EU over eight years.

Trump calls Netanyahu 'very difficult' as Israel rejects Lebanon withdrawal
The stance comes despite Tehran's insistence during negotiations that it would not move forward with any agreement to end the conflict while Israeli military operations in Lebanon continued. Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said on Monday that the military would not withdraw from Lebanon "despite all current and future pressure", adding that Israel would respond forcefully if Iran attacked Israel over developments in Lebanon.

Inside the fight to end female genital mutilation in Colombia
After a two-year-long push, the bill was passed unanimously. It now awaits approval from Colombia's president, Gustavo Petro. Colombia is the only Latin American country where the practice is currently recorded, mostly in Embera communities in the western departments of Choco and Risaralda. …. Its approach, however, will be non-punitive. The legislation is centred on raising public awareness about female genital mutilation, and it is slated to fund educational campaigns, provide healthcare training and improve case tracking.

Noboa’s emblematic jail hit with wave of torture and death allegations
The Ecuadorian penitentiary facility has been the subject of allegations of starvation, abuse and complaints connected to an outbreak of tuberculosis and a lack of medical attention. Fear as to prisoners’ safety has only increased due to the hermeticism with which authorities manage information about those behind its walls. Families go weeks or months without news of their relatives and on occasion, are only informed when they are transferred to another prison, or of their death.

No Crocs or baby onesies - the draconian Delaney Hall dress code ICE uses to deem toddlers ‘too provocative’
In one such visit, a guard nearly rejected them because of Soto’s 11-month-old’s onesie, she said. On another occasion, she told the Guardian, Delaney Hall rejected them because Gabriela’s four-year-old daughter was iuyghings. When Gabriela would ask why their clothes weren’t allowed, guards said they were too “provocative”, she said. “How is that provocative if she’s only four years old?” said Gabriela, referring to her daughter.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom says Trump’s Justice Department is investigating him and his wife
A person familiar with the matter denied the existence of an investigation specifically targeting the governor, but said there are multiple federal probes into people around him, including one related to his wife’s taxes. That probe began last year, and political leadership in Washington was not involved in the decision to open it, said the person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss ongoing investigations.

ICE agent shoots at vehicle after being struck by car, officials in New Jersey say
Monday’s case reportedly occurred at 9.30am, the police said. It came less than a week after Donald Trump signed a new law giving ICE and other agencies within the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) roughly $70bn in additional funding for the mass deportation campaign that he has led since the start of his second presidency in early 2025.

Errico Malatesta: Let’s Demolish — and then?
I say that to abolish the gendarmerie, and baleful social institutions of whatever kind, we need to know what we want to replace them with — not in a more or less distant future but now, the very same day the demolition work begins. You cannot really destroy, and permanently, without having what we put in its place. To postpone to a later date the solution to the urgent problems that arise would be to give a breathing space to those same institutions that we want to abolish, to recover from tie received blow and to re-impose themselves once more, perhaps under other names but certainly the same in essence. Our solutions will be accepted by a sufficiently large section of the population and we shall have created anarchy, or at least made a step towards it. Or it may be that they will not have been understood and accepted and in that case our work will serve as propaganda, and will be placed before the general public as the program for the near future. But in any case, we must have our solutions: provisional solutions, no doubt; ones that can be revised and modified in the light of experience, but necessary if we do not wish to endure passively the solutions of others, limiting ourselves to the hardly useful role of grumblers who are both incapable and impotent.

Statement of the European Communist Action on the 2026 G7 Summit, which is dangerous for the interests of the people
The main leaders of the Euro-Atlantic capitalist bloc will meet at the G7 Summit, to be held in Évian, France, from 15 to 17 June 2026, to update capitalist arrangements regarding energy, which is highly costly for the peoples, the so-called security and anti-people governance. The 2026 G7 summit will take place in the context of efforts to halt the consolidation of the capitalist bloc led by China, thanks to its capitalist development, which, in alliance with Russia, is challenging the United States for the status of leading economic power. The European Communist Action condemns the anti-worker and anti-popular orientation and policies of the bourgeois governments of the G7, NATO and the European Union which, amidst the growing contradictions and tensions between major capitalist competitors, seek above all to secure their access to natural resources, the routes for transporting them, as well as control over technological services and their production chains, invariably to the detriment of the working conditions and lives of the peoples and workers.

Soft Digital Repression: New Challenges and Strategies for Resistance
During the recent assault on Gaza, thousands of activists witnessed their posts deleted or their accounts restricted simply for documenting Israeli occupation crimes or expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people. This is far from an isolated phenomenon. In India, the government issued emergency orders to block dozens of accounts during the farmers' protests, while human rights organizations documented the suspension of accounts belonging to large numbers of journalists and activists merely for criticizing government policies. Many felt helpless and furious, as their voices seemed to be deliberately pushed to the margins. These cases offer a clear illustration of what can today be called "soft digital repression." This form of repression does not always manifest as direct blocking or public arrest. It operates through invisible algorithms and digital systems, reshaping the digital space in ways that determine what reaches audiences and what gets marginalized. With the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence, these mechanisms have grown increasingly complex and far-reaching. This raises a pressing question: how does this system work, and how can it be confronted?
