As military tensions between Israel and Iran raise concerns across the region, eight Arab and Islamic countries, including Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Algeria, have issued a joint statement condemning the Israeli strikes.

The PJD, Al Adl wal Ihsane, and pro-Palestinian associations have condemned the Israeli airstrikes targeting scientific and military sites and personnel in Iran, unanimously attributing responsibility to the Trump administration for its unwavering support of the Israeli state.
The organization Don’t Touch My Child revealed that a Spanish police officer exploited Moroccan migrants, including minors, in exchange for assistance with asylum procedures.
