A second journalist has died while covering the World Cup in Qatar

The Gulf Times reports Qatari photojournalist Khalid al-Misslam passed away “suddenly”

The journalist worked for the Qatari news channel Al Kass TV, covering the World Cup

The circumstances around his death are unclear.

It comes just just days after American soccer journalist Grant Wahl died in Qatar, also covering the World Cup.

The 48 year-old collapsed at the stadium and was rushed to a nearby hospital before his death.

His brother believes foul play from the Qatari government may have been involved.

Prior to the American team’s game against Wales, Wahl was first banned from entering and detained for 30 minutes.

He was one of America’s most well known soccer journalists and was wearing a shirt depicting a soccer ball surrounded by a rainbow.

The Qatari government cracked down on pro-LGBTQ demonstrations at the tournament despite their original promises not to.

Trump announces Greenland deal, easing tariff threats amid trade tensions, boosting US markets and sparking Arctic diplomacy debate.


U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a framework deal involving Greenland, stepping back from earlier threats to impose tariffs on Europe. The shift comes after heightened global concern over trade tensions and geopolitical stability.

The announcement followed Trump’s appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos and discussions with NATO’s Secretary General.

Denmark’s Foreign Minister has since weighed in, responding to speculation surrounding Greenland’s future and the implications of US involvement.

Markets reacted positively, with US stocks rallying after Trump signalled he would abandon the tariff threats.

While Trump reiterated he would not use force to acquire Greenland, the move has sparked renewed debate about diplomacy, trade, and influence in the Arctic region.

Nationals senators defy party lines, voting against Labor’s reforms as Coalition faces internal rifts and leadership concerns.


A rift has emerged in the Coalition after three Nationals senators crossed the floor to vote against Labor’s post-Bondi hate group reforms, defying party lines and raising questions about their future in the shadow cabinet.

Their proposed amendment calling for greater scrutiny was rejected, and Labor’s legislation passed the Senate 38 votes to 22, cementing the reforms into law despite opposition pushback.

Coalition leadership will meet Wednesday to assess the political fallout, though some MPs consider the issue minor in terms of potential resignations. The incident highlights growing tensions within the party as internal discipline comes under pressure.
