Former Trump heavyweight, Steve Bannon is on trial in the U.S. for refusing to cooperate with the committee investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol

Jury selection for the court appearance has begun.

Bannon faces two counts of contempt of Congress after refusing to testify or provide relevant documents about his involvement in Trump’s presidential defeat.

The committee also wants to question the former advisor about his involvement in organising protests which led to the January 6 attack.

There has been a particular interest in Bannon’s communications with Trump in the days before the riot, and the “war room” meetings held at a hotel near the White House.

Meanwhile, in a popular podcast, he warned on January 5 that “all hell” was going to break loose the following day.

Bannon was first requested to appear in front of the committee in September 2021, and he was held in contempt of Congress a month later.

Israel and Hamas agree to release hostages in U.S.-brokered deal, marking a potential turning point in Gaza conflict.

In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Israel and Hamas have agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages under a U.S.-brokered framework. The deal pairs prisoner exchanges with an Israeli troop pullback and expanded aid access, marking a potential turning point in the two-year Gaza conflict.

The agreement, set for approval by Israel’s cabinet, could pave the way for lasting peace if both sides uphold the terms. It follows weeks of negotiations led by U.S. envoys and regional mediators in Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye.

As international agencies prepare to facilitate aid and logistics, the world watches to see whether this fragile deal can hold and bring relief to millions affected by the war.
