Tens of thousands gathered in Seiyun on Sunday to support the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) declaring an independent 'South Arabia,' backing its recent military advances into Hadramaut and Al-Mahrah to secure against Houthi smuggling and Islah influence. The rally followed STC's 'Operation Promising Future,' which seized key bases, buildings, and oil sites from Saudi-backed forces, with participants calling it a 'popular referendum' and leaders hinting at statehood. While STC frames the actions as anti-terrorism protection, Saudi Arabia warned of consequences, Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council condemned the moves as chaotic, and critics questioned crowd turnout amid tribal wariness of separatism. Thousands rallied again in Mukalla on Monday, underscoring fractures in southern Yemen over unity and control of vital oil fields.

Key Takeaway

Crowds in Seiyun climbed atop armored vehicles, once symbols of northern repression, waving pre-unification flags and chanting for restored borders.

On Thursday, Jackson Hinkle's X post labeling Taiwan a 'fake country' under China drew sharp rebuttals and support, spotlighting Taiwan's limited diplomatic recognition by only 12 UN members and the Holy See amid the unresolved Chinese Civil War.

Public opinion strongly favors the status quo or independence, with over 80% rejecting China's 'one country, two systems' model, reflecting broader geopolitical divides.

Key Takeaway

Influencer Jackson Hinkle declared Taiwan a 'fake country' that belongs to China, igniting a heated online clash viewed over 65,000 times. The post amplified longstanding tensions between China's unification claims and Taiwan's 76 years of independent self-governance.

Robinson endorsed Lowe, the independent MP for Great Yarmouth who launched Restore Britain around February 13, 2026, after leaving Reform UK last year. The new party, now with over 90,000 members, pushes mass deportations and remigration, drawing support from figures like Elon Musk and far-right activists. Reform fired back with Zia Yusuf's hardline speech on February 23, pledging a UK Deportation Command for illegal migrants amid ongoing small boat arrivals, though polls show Reform leading at 25% to Restore's 7%. The rift highlights tensions over immigration strategy and risks splitting the right-wing vote.

Key Takeaway

Tommy Robinson didn't hold back on a US podcast, calling Rupert Lowe the only leader who can save Britain while slamming Nigel Farage for selling out on immigration.

Directed by Jon Favreau, the film arrives May 22 as the first Star Wars movie since 2019, amid concerns over franchise fatigue and competition from fresher sci-fi projects.

Din Djarin and Grogu bundled up on Hoth in a Tauntaun sled felt more like a cozy holiday ad than epic Star Wars action. Disney insiders worried it missed the mark on building ticket buzz.

Demonstrations swept cities in South Africa, Argentina, the U.S., Canada and beyond over the weekend, organized by Cuban expatriates and solidarity groups urging an end to the decades-old U.S. economic embargo. The protests timed with celebrations of Fidel Castro's 100th birth anniversary, as Cuba faces severe fuel shortages from tightened U.S. restrictions in January 2026 that cut 75% of its oil imports from Venezuela, triggering blackouts, school closures and transport halts. While Cuba blames the embargo for its woes and U.N. experts call it a violation of international law, the U.S. defends it against security threats like Cuba's alleged ties to Hezbollah, Hamas, Iran, Russia and China; Human Rights Watch notes ongoing repression of protesters on the island.

Key Takeaway

Protesters from Toronto to Miami marched with caravans and cultural events, calling the U.S. embargo a blockade that's left Havana streets dark and piled with garbage.
