A man throws objects at the leader of the British far-right party Reform UK

The politician, one of the promoters of Brexit, who was surprised by announcing last week that he is running as a Reform UK candidate in the British elections on July 4, shared on social network X a video of the incident, which occurred in Barnsley, in the north of England.

The images show Farage, who waved from the top of a bus, bending down to cover himself when the vehicle hits a white object, apparently a glass of coffee.

The aggressor ran away, before being arrested by the police, who reported that the suspect is 28 years old.

“I will not be intimidated by the violent leftists who hate our country,” Nigel Farage said in X.

In his first trip within the election campaign, last week in Clacton on Sea (southeast of England), Nigel Farage was sprinkled with a banana shake.

As a result, a 25-year-old woman was arrested and will be tried on July 2 for assault.

In 2019, a man was sentenced to 150 hours of community services for throwing a beating at Nigel Farage during the campaign for the European elections, the last in which the United Kingdom participated before Brexit.

According to some polls, Reform UK, led by Farage, reaches 15% of voting intentions in the legislative elections scheduled for July 4, threatening, according to these polls, the Conservative Party, of the Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, which would reap 20%.

The Labour Party, by Keir Starmer, is the big favorite to win these elections, which would put an end to fourteen years of conservative governments, with 45% voting intention, according to those latest polls.

Pope Francis meets former Gaza hostages

Pope Francis met on Thursday at the Vatican with 16 Israelis who had been held hostage in Gaza for months by the Islamist group Hamas, according to the official Vatican news website.

The group consisted of ten women, four men, and two children, as reported by the same source. Several of the former hostages showed the Argentine pontiff banners or photos of their loved ones who remain in captivity.

Francis had previously met with the families of hostages in April this year and November 2023, but this was the first time he had met with individuals who had personally endured captivity.

Since the conflict between Israel and Hamas began, the pope has repeatedly called for the immediate release of Israeli hostages, while also condemning the suffering of the Palestinian population.

The war erupted on October 7, 2023, when Islamist militants attacked southern Israel, killing 1,206 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping 251, according to an AFP tally based on official Israeli figures that include hostages who died in captivity.

Of the kidnapped, 97 are still being held in Gaza, but the Israeli military estimates that 34 of them have died.

The military offensive launched by Israel in response has killed at least 43,736 people in the Gaza Strip, mostly civilians, according to data from the Ministry of Health in the Hamas-governed territory.

Israeli airstrikes on Damascus kill 15 and injure 16, including women and children

Israeli forces carried out airstrikes on residential buildings in the Syrian capital, Damascus, and its surroundings on Thursday, resulting in at least 15 deaths and 16 injuries, according to Syria’s Ministry of Defense and state television.

The ministry stated that around 3:20 p.m. local time (12:20 GMT), the Israeli military launched an aerial attack from the direction of the occupied Golan Heights, targeting several residential buildings in the Mazzeh neighborhood in western Damascus and the Qudsaya suburb to the northwest of the capital.

The airstrikes “resulted in the death of 15 people and injuries to 16 others, including women and children,” based on initial estimates, in addition to significant damage to private property and civilian buildings, the ministry added.

Meanwhile, state television reported Israeli airstrikes on three buildings in Mazzeh and another on a building in an educational complex located in a residential area of Qudsaya.

Following the strikes, loud explosions were heard throughout the city, and thick plumes of smoke could be seen rising from the targeted locations. Ambulances and emergency services rushed to the scene to attend to the victims.

Drug trafficker dies after boat collision with Guardia Civil Vessel in Sanlúca

Three people were on the boat that collided with a Guardia Civil vessel around midnight at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, near the Andalusian city of Cádiz, a spokesperson for the Civil Guard reported.

Two officers sustained “contusions,” the spokesperson explained.

The drug traffickers managed to bring the boat to shore, where one of them was “abandoned” severely injured. The other two fled.

The Civil Guard officers attempted to resuscitate the victim before transporting him to Sanlúcar de Barrameda, but he ultimately died early in the morning.

The other two suspects took advantage of the officers’ absence while they were taking the victim and returned to set their boat on fire.

The collision occurred very close to the site of another accident on September 1, where a drug trafficker died following a Guardia Civil pursuit.

The suspects’ boat traveled “400 meters” before crashing head-on and “at full speed” into the riverbank, where a hundred bundles of hashish were found.
