Abu Shabab commanded the Popular Forces, a small group armed by Israel to counter Hamas in an Israeli-held zone east of Rafah.

His deputy pledged to carry on the fight.

In 2023, Labour Together—a think tank key to Keir Starmer's leadership shift—paid APCO Worldwide £30,000 to investigate reporters like Sunday Times' Gabriel Pogrund and Harry Yorke, Guardian's Henry Dyer, Paul Holden, and Matt Taibbi after stories on its £740,000 in unreported 2017-2020 donations. The firm labeled them 'significant persons of interest' and speculated their info came from an illegal hack, even submitting reports to the National Cyber Security Centre. Labour Together's then-director Josh Simons, now a minister, called it a probe into a suspected hack unrelated to UK journalists, but targeted reporters described the materials as a 'dodgy dossier' aimed at discrediting their work. Press freedom groups raised alarms over the tactics amid broader concerns about political pressure on scrutiny.

Key Takeaway

Journalists who exposed hidden donations faced unexpected scrutiny from a Labour-linked group, with leaked memos revealing a PR firm's detailed dossiers on them.

Key Takeaway

Manchester United supporters are poring over a tough stat: Rúben Amorim's 14 Premier League wins in his first 44 games fall far short of Erik ten Hag's 30 over the same span.

Turkish user @spideymsn posted the comparison on February 13 to mock Hollywood's 'intelligence,' comparing Pitt's fair-haired Achilles to a Fayum Oasis mummy portrait from 1st-3rd century CE—over 1,000 years after the Trojan War around 1200 BCE. Homer's Iliad describes Achilles with xanthos hair, meaning blond or golden, and DNA shows Mycenaean Greeks as olive-skinned Mediterraneans with some fair-haired traits from northern influences. Critics highlighted the mismatch, noting Fayum portraits depict diverse locals in Roman Egypt, while the debate mixes nationalists, historians, and calls for historical nuance over modern culture clashes.

Key Takeaway

A side-by-side image pitting Brad Pitt's blond Achilles from Troy against a dark-skinned ancient portrait has people fired up. Turns out, that portrait is a Roman-era Egyptian mummy, not a Bronze Age Greek warrior.

On January 22, 2025, at the World Economic Forum, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez proposed linking social media accounts to Europe's digital identity wallets. This would allow nicknames but enable authorities to trace real identities for crimes like hate speech or harassment, addressing bot accounts and misinformation. Part of his pitch to EU leaders, the idea ties into eIDAS 2.0 wallets rolling out by mid-2026 for services like banking, though social media linkage remains just a proposal. The clip has fueled strong pushback, with many viewing it as a step toward greater oversight.

Key Takeaway

In a Davos speech earlier this year, Pedro Sánchez drew everyday comparisons to make his case for change online. He pictured streets without masks and cars without plates, urging a shift from full anonymity.
