International accountability and political spectacle shared the stage today. A UN commission accused Israel of deliberately targeting Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank, concluding that the conduct amounts to genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity—findings Israel rejects. In Washington, Donald Trump signed executive orders to speed America’s push into quantum computing while hardening federal systems against the day quantum machines can crack current encryption, underscoring a strategic race with China. Trump also opened a new front in his battle with the press, threatening to sue ABC News over its reporting on damage and costly repairs at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. In South Asia, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian arrived in Pakistan for talks on trade, energy, border security and regional diplomacy. Meanwhile, in U.S. court, the government moved to block the planned auction of more than 100 Titanic artifacts, arguing they belong in public trust, not private sale.
