    JERUSALEM, July 29 (Xinhua) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to present a plan to annex part of the Gaza Strip to the country’s security cabinet, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported on Monday evening.

    According to her, B. Netanyahu told the ministers that Israel gave Hamas several days to agree on a ceasefire. If it refuses the agreement, Israel will begin to gradually annex parts of the Gaza Strip until the Palestinian movement surrenders, the prime minister added.

    The article notes that B. Netanyahu has chosen this course of action in order to secure the support of the far-right Religious Zionism party, which opposes both the ceasefire and increased humanitarian aid to Gaza. Keeping this party in the coalition is crucial to preventing the collapse of the current government.

    According to media reports, Religious Zionism leader and cabinet member Bezalel Smotrich told his associates that the party is pushing a “good strategic move” and it will soon become clear whether it will be successful.

    Haaretz writes that during his conversations with ministers, B. Netanyahu stated that his plan was approved by the administration of US President Donald Trump.

    Also on Monday, the Prime Minister’s Office said Israel would continue to work with international organizations, as well as the United States and European countries, to ensure that large amounts of humanitarian aid reach the Gaza Strip. “While the situation in Gaza remains difficult and Israel works to ensure that aid reaches the Strip, Hamas is benefiting from attempts to create the impression of a humanitarian crisis,” the office said. -0-

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Portugal questions fairness of EU-US trade deal

    LISBON, July 29 (Xinhua) — Portugal has expressed concern over the recently concluded tariff deal between the EU and the United States, calling it a limited improvement that is not in line with genuine free trade principles and comes at a high cost to both sides.

    The country’s Ministry of Economy and Territorial Integrity acknowledged that the agreement, which sets US tariffs on European goods at 15 percent, could provide some predictability. However, “nothing can replace free trade,” and Portugal will continue to actively advocate for the gradual elimination of tariffs and other trade barriers, the ministry stressed.

    The Confederation of Portuguese Businesses (CPB) expressed only “relative relief” at the agreement, noting that the price to be paid was “high for both sides.”

    “When you were expecting a hurricane, you are glad that it is just a normal storm,” said CBP Director General Rafael Alves Rocha. However, he warned that the agreed duties were significantly higher than the current average of around 2.5 percent, representing a setback for exporters and highlighting the asymmetry of the EU and US tariff structures.

    The CPB said the agreement was unbalanced and put European producers at a disadvantage.

    The Portuguese government responded to the potential negative consequences with financial support measures for businesses.

    The Reforcar programme, aimed at protecting companies from adverse trade consequences, was launched in April. To date, 14,000 applications have been submitted for a total of €3.2 billion, of which €2.5 billion has been approved and €1.6 billion has already been spent.

    In addition, a special credit line has been created to support export-oriented small and medium-sized enterprises. The Ministry of Economy received 2.6 thousand applications for 1.3 billion euros, of which 600 million euros were approved.

    The new PT2030 incentive programme has launched a non-repayable grant pipeline to support internationalisation, targeting joint projects and cooperation strategies in foreign markets. The ministry announced that public applications for collective internationalisation initiatives will open on 31 July.

    Despite these supportive measures, Lisbon’s cautious tone and criticism from the business community reflect significant doubts about the long-term benefits of the EU-US trade deal. –0–

  • MIL-OSI Security: Delaware County Man Arrested for Sexual Exploitation of a Child

    Source: Office of United States Attorneys

    Brent G. Trimbell had Been Released from State Pretrial Custody on Rape and Aggravated Sexual Abuse Charges Before Being Charged Federally

    SYRACUSE, NEW YORK – Brent G. Trimbell, age 44, of Delaware County was arrested Sunday evening and had his initial appearance today on a charge of sexual exploitation of a child. Acting United States Attorney John A. Sarcone III and Craig L. Tremaroli, Special Agent in Charge of the Albany Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), made the announcement.

    The complaint alleges that Trimbell exchanged sexually explicit messages with a female child victim, including messages persuading her to create and send him videos of her engaged in sexually explicit conduct. The child created the content Trimbell requested and sent it to him over social media. The complaint also alleges that Trimbell had sexual contact with the victim on at least three occasions and sent the victim videos depicting him masturbating.

    Trimbell was first charged by state authorities with state sex offenses related to the foregoing conduct, but late last week he was released on bail.

    If convicted of sexual exploitation of a child, Trimbell faces a maximum term of imprisonment of 30 years and a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of 15 years, a term of supervised release of at least five years and up to life, a fine of $250,000, forfeiture of property used to commit the offense, and restitution to the victim. Trimbell also would be required to register as a sex offender.

    Acting U.S. Attorney John A. Sarcone III stated: “Trimbell was charged with serious state sex offenses but was released on bail. Now, Trimbell is in federal custody—facing serious federal offenses—which if convicted, will result in a mandatory term of imprisonment of 15 years.  This is how we keep the children in our community safe.”

    FBI Special Agent in Charge Craig L. Tremaroli stated: “FBI Albany is incredibly thankful for the swift coordination from our partners at the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office and United States Attorney’s Office that has now resulted in serious federal charges against Mr. Trimbell. The FBI, together with our law enforcement partners, will continue to coordinate with our state and local partners to share the information and resources needed to ensure anyone hurting our most vulnerable is investigated and brought to justice.”

    Following the initial appearance, Trimbell was remanded to the custody of the United States Marshals Service pending further proceedings.

    The charges in the indictment are merely accusations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

    This case is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office. Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael D. Gadarian is prosecuting the case as part of Project Safe Childhood.

    Project Safe Childhood is a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

The MOU also sets out specific arrangements for coordination between the RBA and APRA in relation to macroprudential policy, liquidity support, payments policy and crisis management.

    Both the RBA and APRA have responsibilities in relation to financial stability in Australia, and it is therefore important that they continue to engage closely with one other.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Heathcare – NZ hosts first-of-its-kind course on life-saving heart technique that halves deaths

    Source: Kia Manawanui Trust | The Heart of Aotearoa New Zealand

    Patients are often told they are “in the best hands”, yet many New Zealanders with blocked arteries in the heart are treated using outdated techniques.
    Most stents are guided into place using angiography – a decades-old imaging method that provides a 2D black-and-white image of the arteries, but offers little detail from inside the vessel itself. Although widely used, it leaves cardiologists making critical decisions without the full picture.
    This week, 30 cardiologists from around New Zealand and Australia will attend a specific teaching course that certifies them in two cutting-edge cardiac imaging techniques – Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS). These techniques provide detailed 3D images from inside the coronary arteries, reducing the risk of thrombosis, and subsequent heart attacks and death.
    The course is being hosted by The Heart of Aotearoa – The Kia Manawanui Trust, alongside the Transcontinental Coronary Imaging and Physiology Club (TCIP) and Asian Pacific Society of Cardiology (APSC) and is the first course of its kind to be offered in New Zealand and Australia.
    The Heart of Aotearoa – The Kia Manawanui Trust Chief Executive Ms Letitia Harding says New Zealanders deserve access to the best-practice cardiac care, and this course is an important step toward delivering it.
    “For years, our heart patients have had stents placed using a technique that is technically adequate, but not optimal.
    “It is now clear that using IVUS or OCT imaging significantly improves patient outcomes and is strongly recommended internationally,” Ms Harding says.
    “We have some of the best cardiologists in the world, and this course draws on their expertise to teach a technique that should become the gold standard in New Zealand.”
    The evidence shows that using these imaging techniques leads to a 45 per cent reduction in cardiac death, she says.
    “The data is clear – these imaging techniques reduce complications, improve outcomes, and lower the risk of death. We can’t ignore that.”
    Trust Medical Director Dr Sarah Fairley – who is one of the course directors and a Wellington-based interventional cardiologist – says this training is an important moment for education in heart healthcare in New Zealand.
    “This isn’t about showcasing novel technology – the aim is to share knowledge and provide colleagues with the training to use intravascular imaging with confidence, so they can deliver the best possible heart healthcare throughout Aotearoa.”

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Greenpeace: Governments must rise to the moment and vote in favour of a moratorium on deep sea mining

    Source: Greenpeace

    The 30th session of the International Seabed Authority (ISA) has ended with Greenpeace saying governments are continuing to fall short in protecting the deep sea.
    While high-level representatives from Palau, France and Panama attended to rally the international community, Greenpeace is calling for greater efforts from more governments to put a legal barrier between mining machines and the deep ocean.
    Upcoming ISA meetings must secure a moratorium and leave no room for rushed attempts to adopt a Mining Code. Recent developments have made it clear that outstanding political and scientific concerns cannot be hastily resolved under industry-driven pressure.
    Louisa Casson, Campaigner, Greenpeace International who attended the meeting, says: “Governments have yet to rise to the moment. They remain disconnected from global concerns and the pressing need for courageous leadership to protect the deep ocean. We call on the international community to rise up and defend multilateralism against rogue actors like The Metals Company. Leaders must respond by establishing a moratorium and reaffirming that authority over the international seabed lies collectively with all States-for the benefit of humanity as a whole.”
    Juressa Lee, Greenpeace Aotearoa seabed mining campaigner, says: “Deep sea mining is the latest form of colonisation and extraction. Pacific civil society is overwhelmingly opposed to deep sea mining and must not be ignored in the rush by companies and states based in the Global North to start plundering the ocean.”
    While calls for a moratorium on deep sea mining have not yet gained global consensus, they continue to gain momentum, supported by compelling arguments from a diverse group of countries. Croatia has just become the 38th government calling for a precautionary pause, moratorium or ban on deep sea mining.
    On Tuesday His Excellency Surangel S. Whipps Jr., President of the Republic of Palau, addressed the Assembly, drawing attention to persistent efforts and intense pressure from the industry to rush the negotiations and finalise a Mining Code. He stated: “Exploiting the seabed is not a necessity – it is a choice. And it is reckless. It is gambling with the future of Pacific Island children, who will inherit the dire consequences of decisions made far from their shores.”
    In the first meeting of the ISA since The Metals Company (TMC) submitted the world’s first-ever application to commercially mine the international seabed, governments at the ISA Council responded by launching an investigation into whether mining contractors, including TMC’s subsidiaries Nauru Ocean Resources Inc. (NORI) and Tonga Offshore Mining Limited (TOML), are complying with contractual obligations to act in accordance with the international legal framework.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Economy – Job decline continues, wages not growing with inflation – CTU

    Source: NZCTU Te Kauae Kaimahi 

    NZCTU Te Kauae Kaimahi President Richard Wagstaff has said that today’s release of labour market data shows the continued economic pain that is being felt by workers.

    “This new data shows that unemployment is rising, wages are not keeping up with rising costs, and young people are bearing the brunt of the Government’s failure to protect jobs and grow the economy,” said Wagstaff.

    “According to Stats NZ, the number of filled jobs was down 27,850 from this time last year and is down by more than 30,000 over two years. There are 10% fewer 15–19-year-olds in work than this time last year. The Government doesn’t have a plan to tackle unemployment.

    “Total wages grew 1.2% last year. Inflation is currently 2.7%. We have had two years in a row where the minimum wage was cut in real terms, and the Government has cut the living wage from government contracts. Working people’s pay isn’t keeping up with the cost of living, and there is no relief in sight.

    “When we look at the data, there are 12,169 fewer people working in construction than this time last year, nearly 6,000 fewer in manufacturing and 5,000 fewer in professional, scientific, and technical services. It’s no wonder employment confidence is at near record lows.

    “The government’s plan for the economy isn’t working and is only compounding the cost-of-living crisis for working people. They are delivering tax cuts for businesses and the wealthy, and spending cuts for everyone else.

    “The longer that we leave unemployment to grow, the harder it will be to tackle.  It’s time we had policies like fair pay agreements to help deliver the strong working conditions needed right now, and social insurance to support workers in transition. It’s time we had a government that cared for working people and their families,” said Wagstaff.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Rural News – Practical safety reforms welcome news for farmers – Federated Farmers

    Source: Federated Farmers

    Federated Farmers is welcoming new Government proposals to make farm health and safety rules more practical and grounded in real-world farming.
    Workplace Relations and Safety Minister Brooke van Velden today announced targeted consultation with farmers and the wider agriculture sector on health and safety rule changes.
    Many of the proposed changes reflect what Federated Farmers and its members have been calling for, health and safety spokesperson David Birkett says .
    “We’re really pleased the Minister has announced a raft of changes, and that she’ll be consulting directly with our sector to make sure any new rules are fit for the realities of farm life.
    “This commitment to targeted consultation is a good sign farmers will be properly heard.”
    Minister van Velden has announced the development of two new Approved Codes of Practice (ACOPs) – one on the roles and responsibilities in agriculture, and one on the safe use of farm vehicles and machinery.
    “We’re very pleased to see WorkSafe will be developing an ACOP to provide clearer guidance on overlapping duties and PCBU responsibilities in agriculture.
    “Farms are dynamic workplaces and we need greater clarity around who on the farm – whether it’s farmers, contractors or someone else – is responsible for particular health and safety duties, and how they can work together to manage risks.
    “It’s also great to see movement on quad bike safety, because this is where most fatalities are happening. If we’re going to reduce harm, that’s the place to start.”
    The Minister confirmed the Government will strengthen the ACOP model so businesses that comply with them have confidence they’re meeting their legal duties.
    “This is something we’ve been calling for, and it will give farmers clarity and confidence,” Birkett says.
    “We’re committed to working closely with WorkSafe throughout the process to make sure these codes are developed with farmers, not prescribed by Wellington bureaucrats.”
    The Minister also announced a review of the rules around children carrying out light chores on family farms, such as feeding animals and watering plants.
    “We strongly support clarification around what kinds of farm activities children can safely take part in,” Birkett says.
    “Family farms are unique in that they are both a home and a workplace, and kids can learn a lot when they’re safely involved.”
    Federated Farmers has worked closely with Minister van Velden since she first announced the health and safety review at the organisation’s Rural Advocacy Hub at Fieldays 2024.
    Since then, the Minister has joined Federated Farmers for a national webinar and visited farmers to hear firsthand about the practical challenges they face.
    “We’re proud to have played a meaningful role in helping get this reform process off the ground,” Birkett says.
    “Farm safety is absolutely vital, but the rules need to be grounded in fairness, practicality and common sense.
    “These proposals show we’re finally moving in the right direction, with clearer and more workable expectations for farmers.
    “That said, we know there’s still work needed to lift the bar in our sector. Our priority now is helping farmers feel supported and confident to engage with health and safety in a way that genuinely reduces risk on-farm – not just ticks boxes.”

    Highlights

    Continued organic growth thanks to continued successes in the strategic pillars

    2025 marks the final year of Ambitions 2025 plan, which set a number of strategic pillars aimed at accelerating the diversification of the Group’s growth drivers and exploiting development opportunities. Several objectives were achieved in 2024 and the first half of 2025 confirms Amundi’s growth momentum.

    • Amundi, the European expert: Amundi is the leading European asset manager, and the only European player among the world’s top 105; this positioning allows the Group to manage ~€1.7tn in assets under management on behalf of European clients, who have entrusted it with an additional +€29bn€ in the first half to manage; Amundi invests, on behalf of its clients, more than half of its assets6 in euro-denominated securities; this European expertise is a key differentiator for Amundi’s comprehensive and innovative platform; the launch of new products, such as ETFs or actively managed funds to invest in the European defence sector, make it possible to nurture this distinctive element strongly quarter after quarter;
    • The Institutional division generated healthy net inflows of +€31bn in the fist half, thanks to several major wins, including the award of a Defined Contribution mandate with The People’s Pension in the UK(+€22bn), successes in Asia (+€5bn, particularly in China), record net inflows in Employee Savings and Retirement and the renewed interest in France in tradition life insurance “euro” contracts; in addition, Amundi secured several innovative mandates, for example with a German pension fund in private debt via the expertise of Amundi Alpha Associates, and a low-carbon mandate for Chile’s sovereign wealth fund thanks to the index and ESG expertise;
    • Third-Party Distribution continued to grow strongly, with assets under management up by more than +18% year-on-year excluding the contribution of US Distribution to Victory Capital (scope effect of -€62bn), thanks to 12-month net inflows of +€33bn, of which +€13bn7 was in the first half of 2025, mainly in MLT assets8, (+€12.1bn); net inflows were driven by ETFs and positive in active management, diversified by geographical areas and positive in almost all countries in terms of MLT assets8, particularly in Asia (+€3bn); the strong commercial momentum with digital platforms is confirmed, with this type of client accounting for around 40% of net inflows for the first half; it should be noted that a workshop dedicated to Third-Party Distribution was held on 19 June, in London to highlight the growth potential of this strategic focus of the MTP;
    • Asia: assets under management were up +2% year-on-year despite the decline in the US dollar and the Indian rupee, to reach €460bn; half-year net inflows reached +€22bn, of which +€14bn was in the second quarter; half-year net inflows were split +€14bn from JVs (including Amundi BOC WM) and +€8bn from direct distribution; it is also diversified by countries: India (+€7bn), China (+€5bn) with the two JVs, institutional clients and now the QDLP9 license in Third-Party Distribution10, Korea (+€5bn) thanks to the JV, Hong Kong (+€3bn) and Singapore (+€1bn) thanks to institutional investors and third-party distributors;
    • ETFs gathered +€19bn this half-year, placing Amundi in second place in the European ETF market in terms of net inflows as well as assets under management, which reached €288bn; this high level of activity was achieved thanks to the diversification of the business line by client types, geographies and asset classes covered: Asia and Latin America contributed +€4bn in net inflows over the half-year; the net inflows also reflect the success of the business line’s flagship products: the Stoxx Europe 600 ETF collected nearly +€3bn in the first half and assets now exceed €12bn; European strategies continued to benefit from investors’ renewed interest in the European markets, with +€4bn attracted in the second quarter alone; innovative products were launched, such as the low-duration euro zone sovereign green bonds ETF, capitalising on the success of the long-duration version, which reached €3bn in assets under management, and the launch in May of the European Defence ETF, in partnership with STOXX, on a platform and with partners only in Europe;
    • Amundi Technology continues to grow, with revenues up +48% H1/H1, thanks to strong organic growth amplified by the integration of aixigo; Amundi Technology has won new clients during this period, including AJ Bell in the UK.
    • Fund Channel, the fund distribution platform, has exceeded its target Ambitions 2025 target six months ahead of schedule, with €613bn in assets under distribution; the subsidiary has launched Fund Channel Liquidity, a multi-management platform for treasury products, in partnership with the Liquidity Solutions teams of Amundi and CACEIS; the platform has already been recognised with the innovation award of the AFTE (French association of corporate treasurers);
    • Following the success of Ambitions 2025, a new three-year strategic plan will be presented in the fourth quarter.

    On 1 April, Amundi finalised its partnership with Victory Capital and received shares representing 26% of the share capital in return for contributing Amundi US to Victory. This stake is consolidated in the second quarter accounts under the equity method, with a one-quarter lag compared to Victory Capital’s publications because the company, listed on the Nasdaq, publishes its accounts after those of Amundi (on 8 August for its second quarter 2025 results). Assets under management are consolidated at 26% in a separate line (Victory Capital – US distribution” for the portion distributed to US clients, and at 100% in the relevant client segments and asset classes for the portion managed by Victory Capital but distributed by Amundi to clients outside the United States.

    Activity

    Record inflows in the first half of the year of +€52bn, already at the level of the whole of 2024

    Assets under management1as at 30 June 2025 rose by +5.2% year-on-year, to reach an all-time high at €2,267bn. They benefited over 12 months from a high level of net inflows, +€75bn, the positive effect of market appreciation for +€109bn, more than half reduced by the unfavourable impact of currency moves (-€60bn) linked to the fall in the US dollar and the Indian rupee.

    These two currencies fell vs. the euro in average for the second quarter by -5% and -7% respectively year-on-year and by -7% and -6% quarter-on-quarter. In the first half of 2025 and also in average terms, the US dollar is down by -1% and the Indian rupee by -4% compared to the first half of 2024.

    In the first half of 2025, the market effect and the forex effect amounted to +€58bn and -€73bn respectively,

    Amundi recorded a scope effect of -€10bn related to the finalisation of the partnership with the American asset manager Victory Capital in the second quarter.

    Net inflows were healthy at +€52bn in the first half of the year, almost reaching the level of the whole of 2024 (+€55bn), and far exceeding it in assets MLT8 excluding JVs and US distribution at +€48bn (compared to +€34bn for the whole of 2024).

    These MLT net inflows8 (+€26bn) were driven by passive management (+€44bn), in particular ETFs (+€19bn) and active management (+€9bn), driven by fixed income strategies.

    Treasury products excluding JVs and US distribution posted outflows of -€9bn over the half-year, entirely due to withdrawals from corporate clients, which were particularly strong over the first half (€15bn); on the contrary, all other client segments posted net inflows on this asset class, reflecting the wait-and-see attitude in the face of volatility in risky asset markets.

    The three main client segments contributed to the net inflows of +€52bn:

    • the Retail segment, at +€7bn, thanks to Third-Party Distributors (+€13bn) and Amundi BOC WM (+€1.0bn), while risk aversion continues to affect net inflows from Partner networks;
    • the Institutional segment, at +€31bn, particularly in fixed income and equities thanks to the gain in the first quarter of The People’s Pension mandate (+€21bn, +22 in H1); all sub-segments contributed, to note the very high level of activity in Employee Savings & Retirement, at +€4bn, a record since the creation of Amundi, and the mandates of the insurers of Crédit Agricole and Société Générale, at +€9bn, which benefited from the renewed interest of French savers in life “euro” contracts;
    • and finally, JVs (+€13bn) posted a very positive performance over the half-year; despite market volatility in India, the SBI MF subsidiary gathered +€7bn thanks to a rebound in the second quarter, NH-Amundi (South Korea) +€5bn, and ABC-CA (China) +€2bn (excluding the discontinued Channel business), mainly driven by treasury products.
    • The net inflows from the US distribution of Victory Capital, recorded only over one quarter and only for the Group’s share of 26%, were at breakeven.

    In the second quarter, net inflows reached +€20.4bn, divided between:

    • the MLT assets8 at +€11.1bn, driven by Third-Party Distributors (+€5bn) and the Institutional division (+€10.8bn); the activity was at a record level in Employee Savings & Retirement, even for a seasonally high quarter (+€4.1bn) and Crédit Agricole and Société Générale insurance mandates recorded a good performance (+4.6bn€), in the context already mentioned of the renewed interest in life “euro” contracts and the arbitrage of treasury products in favour of short-duration bonds; as regards asset classes, ETFs confirmed their success (+€8.2bn), but also positive net inflows in active management (+€2.9 billion), driven by fixed income;
    • JVs, for +€10.3bn, thanks in particular to the rebound in SBI MF’s activity in India (+€7.8bn) after two quarters of market volatility and withdrawals related to the end of the fiscal year in the first quarter; ABC-CA (China, +€1.2bn excluding Channel Business) also confirmed the recovery of its activity, particularly in fixed income, driven by a more favourable local market;
    • Treasury products posted outflows (-€1.0bn), with the continuation of seasonal withdrawals from Corporates (-€3.8bn), while all other segments posted net inflows or at least breakeven.

    First half 2025 results

    The income statement for the first half of 2025 includes, in the first quarter, Amundi US fully integrated in each line of the P&L and, in the second quarter, the equity-accounted contribution of Victory Capital (Group share, i.e. 26%). As Victory Capital has not yet published its earnings for this period, this contribution is estimated by taking Group share of the net profit for the first quarter of 2025.

    The first half of 2024 has been restated in a comparable manner, i.e. as if Amundi US had been fully integrated in the first quarter and accounted for using the equity method in the second quarter (@100%)

    Profit before tax3+4% H1/H14

    Adjusted data3

    The Group’s results for the first half of 2025 include, in addition to the 26% equity contribution of Victory Capital, the contribution of aixigo, acquisition of which was finalised in early November 2024, as well as Alpha Associates, an acquisition finalised early April 2024, which were therefore not integrated or only partially integrated in the first half of 2024.

    Victory Capital’s contribution is accounted for under the equity method for its 26% share with a one-quarter lag.

    The profit before tax3reached €895m in up +4.2% compared to the first half of 2024 pro forma4. This growth comes mainly from revenue growth.

    Adjusted net revenues3 reached €1,703m, +4.9% compared to the first half of 2024 (+4,0% excluding the integration of aixigo and an additional quarter of Alpha Associates). Contributing to this progression, at current scope:

    • Net Management Fees grew by +4.6% compared to the first half of 2024 pro forma4, at €1,542m, and reflect the increase in average assets under management2 thanks to the good level of activity, despite the negative effect of the product mix on revenue margins;
    • Amundi Technology’s revenues, at €52m, grew strongly (+48.0% compared to the first half of 2024), amplified by the consolidation of aixigo (+€8m), organic growth was +25%;
    • Financial and other revenues3 amounted to €52m, +10.4% compared to the first half of 2024 on a pro forma basis4 thanks to capital gains on seed private equity investments and the portfolio’s positive mark-to-market in the first quarter, although the half-year remains characterised by the negative impact on voluntary investments of the fall in short-term rates in the euro zone, which halved in one year;
    • Performance fees (€58m), on the other hand, decreased by -13.2% compared to the first half of 2024 on a pro forma basis4, reflecting greater market volatility since the beginning of the year, particularly in the second quarter; however, the performance of Amundi′s management remains good, with more than 70% of assets under management ranked in the first or second quartiles according to Morningstar11 over 1, 3 or 5 years, and 243 Amundi funds rated 4 or 5 stars by Morningstar as at 30 June.

    The increase in adjusted operating expenses3, €894m, is +5,3% compared to the first half of 2024 pro forma4 and +3,4% excluding the integration of aixigo and an additional quarter of Alpha Associates. The jaws effect is therefore slightly positive on a like-for-like basis, reflecting the Group’s operational efficiency.

    In addition to the scope effect, this increase is mainly due to investments in the development initiatives of the Ambitions 2025 plan, particularly in technology, third-party distribution and Asia.

    The cost-income ratio at 52,5%, on an adjusted basis3, is stable compared to the first half of last year, and in line with the Ambitions 2025 target (<53%).

    The adjusted gross operating income3reached €808m, up +4,5% compared to the first half of 2024 pro forma4, reflecting growth in revenues and cost control.

    The contribution of equity-accounted JVs12, at €66m, up +7.1% compared to the first half of 2024, reflects the strong momentum of the Indian JV SBI MF (+7.4%), which accounts for nearly 80% of the contribution of JVs. The commercial dynamism of the JV allowed the continued growth of its management fees and more than offset the effects of the depreciation of the Indian rupee (-€3m, or -6 percentage points of growth). The half-year contribution also benefited from the profitability of the Chinese JV ABC-CA.

    The adjusted contribution3of the U.S. operations, accounted for under the equity method, which includes Victory Capital’s Group share (26%) contribution from the second quarter onward, amounts to €26m. As explained, this figure corresponds to Victory Capital’s first quarter adjusted net income, due to the lag in publication and therefore does not take into account the synergies that were announced as part of the combination with Amundi US ($110m at 100%, full year before tax) and of which $50m had already been achieved at the time of the finalisation of the partnership. The comparison with Amundi US contribution in the second quarter of 2024, at €32m, which also included positive non-recurring items, is therefore not relevant.

    The adjusted corporate tax expense3 of the first half of 2025 reached -€259m, a very strong increase – +35.0% – compared to the first half of 2024 pro forma4.

    In France, in accordance with the Finance Act for 2025, an exceptional tax contribution is recorded in the 2025 fiscal year. It is calculated on the average of the taxable profits made in France in 2024 and 2025. This exceptional contribution is estimated13 to -€72m for the year as a whole, and is not accounted for on a straight-line basis over the quarters. Thus, it amounted to -€54m in the first half of 2025. Excluding this exceptional contribution, the adjusted tax expense3 would have been -€205m and the adjusted effective tax rate3 would be equivalent to that of the first half of 2024.

    Adjusted net income3 rose to €638m. Excluding the exceptional corporate income tax contribution, it would have reached €692m, up +4% compared to the first half of 2024 pro forma4.

    Adjusted3earnings per share was €3.11 in the first half of 2025, including -€0.26 related to the exceptional tax contribution in France. Excluding this exceptional contribution, adjusted3 earnings per share would therefore have been €3.37, up +3.3% compared to the first half of 2024 pro forma4.

    Accounting data in the first half of 2025

    Accounting net income group share amounted to nearly one billion euros, at €998m. It includes a non-cash capital gain of €402m related to the finalisation of the partnership with Victory Capital.

    As a reminder, this operation took the form of a share swap and did not give result in any cash payment. The accounting capital gain corresponds to the difference between the market value of what Amundi Group received at the transaction date, namely 26% of the share capital of the new entity Victory Capital, and the historical accounting price of Amundi US that the Group contributed to Victory Capital.

    As in the other half-years, the reported net income includes various non-cash expenses as well as integration costs related to the partnership with Victory Capital, finalised on 1 April 2025. Finally, Victory Capital’s contribution also includes a number of expenses, including the amortisation of intangible assets. See the details of all these elements in p. 17).

    Accounting earnings per share in the first half of 2025 was €4.86, including the capital gain and the exceptional tax contribution in France.

    Second quarter 2025 results

    The quarterly series have been restated as if Amundi US had been consolidated using the 100% equity method up to and including the first quarter of 2025. In the second quarter, following the finalisation of the partnership with Victory Capital, the contribution of Amundi US was replaced by the consolidation under the equity method of the Group share (26%) in Victory Capital, with a one-quarter lag in publication (integration for the second quarter 2025 of the net income published by Victory Capital in the first quarter of 2025).

    Q2/Q2 decline in profit before tax3due to performance fees and financial revenues

    Adjusted data3

    The results include aixigo, acquisition of which was finalised in early November 2024. 

    Adjusted net revenues3 totalled €790m, down -1.0% compared to the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4, but business-related revenues, management fees and technology revenues, were up:

    • Net Management Fees grew by +1.2% compared to the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4, at €717m, thanks to the increase in average assets under management2 over the same period, despite the unfavourable effect of the product mix on margins and the negative impact of the depreciation of the US dollar, which is the currency of approximately 25% of invested assets2; compared to the first quarter of 2025 pro forma4, two-thirds of the decline in these fees are explained by the fall in the US dollar;
    • Amundi Technology’s revenues, at €26m, continued their sustained growth (+46.2% compared to the second quarter of 2024), amplified by the consolidation of aixigo (+€3m); excluding aixigo, these revenues were up +30% organically;
    • Performance fees were down due to market volatility (28.9% compared to the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4), but they are higher than in the first quarter on a pro forma basis4 (+53,5%);
    • Financial revenues (-47.2%) were down due to the fall in short-term rates in the euro zone over the period.

    Adjusted operating expenses3 are under control at €417m, i.e. +1,6% compared to the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4 and were stable excluding aixigo, reflecting the Group’s operational efficiency. Investments in the development initiatives of the Ambitions 2025 plan continued, particularly in technology, third-party distribution and Asia. 

    The cost-income ratio at 52,7% on an adjusted data basis3 is in line with the Ambitions 2025 objective (<53%).

    The optimisation plan, which was announced in the first quarter, has been launched and will finance the acceleration of investments by generating between €35 and €40m in savings from 2026. The first concrete announcements were made in the second quarter, including the merger between CPR and BFT to create a leader in asset management in France within the Group, with around €100bn in assets under management. The restructuring costs of this plan will be recorded for an amount of €70 to 80m14in the second half of the year

    The Adjusted gross operating income3(GOI) amounted to €374m, down -3,8% compared to the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4.

    The contribution of JVs15, at €38m (+16.6%), increased strongly thanks to the growth in activity and management fees of the main contributing entity, the Indian JV SBI MF (+19%), as well as the good profitability of the JV in China ABC-CA.

    The adjusted contribution3of the U.S. operations, accounted for like JVs under the equity method, reflects for the first time this quarter the contribution of Victory Capital to the group share (26%), at €26m. As explained, this figure corresponds to Victory Capital’s first quarter result due to the publication lag, and therefore does not yet take into account the synergies that were announced as part of the combination with Amundi US ($110m at 100%, full-year before tax) and of which $50m were realised at the time of the finalisation of the partnership on 1 April 2025. The comparison with Amundi US’s contribution to Group net income in the second quarter of 2024 (€32m), which also included positive non-recurring items, is therefore not relevant. In addition, the average US dollar fell by -5% year-on-year, also weighing on this contribution.

    Adjusted income before tax3reached €437m, down -1.8% compared to the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4.

    The adjusted corporate tax expense3 of the second quarter of 2025 reached -€104m, up +9% compared to the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4.

    In France, in accordance with the Finance Act for 2025, an exceptional tax contribution is recorded in the 2025 fiscal year. It is calculated on the average of the profits made in France in 2024 and 2025. This exceptional contribution is estimated16 at -€72m for the full year, is not accounted for on a straight-line basis. It amounted to -€9m in the second quarter of 2025, compared to -€46m in the first quarter. Excluding this exceptional contribution, the adjusted tax expense3 would have been -€95m and the adjusted3 effective tax rate 25.4%, equivalent to that of the second quarter of 2024 pro forma4.

    Adjusted net income3 was €334m. Excluding the exceptional tax contribution, it would have been €343m.

    Adjusted3earnings per share in the second quarter of 2025 achieved €1.63, including -4 cents related to the exceptional tax contribution in France.

    Accounting data in the second quarter of 2025

    Accounting net income group share amounted to €715m. It includes the non-cash capital gain of €402m related to the completion of the partnership with Victory Capital.

    As in the previous quarters, reported net income includes various non-cash expenses as well as integration costs related to the partnership with Victory Capital, finalised on 1 April 2025. Finally, Victory Capital’s contribution also includes a number of expenses, including the amortisation of intangible assets. See the details of all these elements in p. 17).

    Accounting earnings per share in the second quarter of 2025 reached €3.48, including the capital gain on the Victory Capital transaction and the exceptional tax contribution in France.

    A solid financial structure, €1.3bn in surplus capital 

    Tangible equity17 amounted to 4.3bn as at 30 June 2025, down slightly compared to the end of 2024 due to the payment of dividends (-€0.9bn) for the fiscal year 2024 and the impact of foreign exchange (-€0.2bn), most of which were offset by accounting net income for the first half of the year, including the capital gain related to this transaction (+€1.0bn), including the capital gain related to the partnership with Victory Capital (+€0.4bn).

    As indicated at the time of signing in July 2024, the partnership with Victory Capital did not have a significant effect on the CET1 ratio.

    The capital surplus at the end of the first quarter stood at €1.3bn. 

    In a press release dated 4 July, the rating agency FitchRatings confirmed Amundi’s A+ issuer rating18 with a stable outlook, the best in the sector.

    Methodological Annex – Alternative Performance Indicators (APIs)

    Accounting and adjusted data

    Accounting data – These include

    • the amortisation of intangible assets, recorded in other revenues, and from Q2 2024, other non-cash expenses spread according to the schedule of price adjustment payments until the end of 2029; these expenses are recognised as deductions from net revenues, in financial expenses.
    • integration costs related to the transaction with Victory Capital and PPA amortization related to the acquisition of aixigo are recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024 and in the first quarter of 2025 as operating expenses. No such costs were recorded in the first nine months of 2024.

    The aggregate amounts of these items are as follows for the different periods under review:

    • Q1 2024: -€20m before tax and -€15m after tax
    • H1 2024: -€44m before tax and -€28m after tax
    • Q4 2024: -€38m before tax and -€28m after tax
    • Q1 2025: -€29m before tax and -€20m after tax
    • Q2 2025: -€28m before tax and -€22m after tax + €402m of capital gain (not taxable)
    • H1 2025: -€57m before tax and -€42m after tax + €402m of capital gain (not taxable)

    Adjusted data – In order to present an income statement that is closer to economic reality, the following adjustments have been made: restatement of the amortization of distribution agreements with Bawag, UniCredit and Banco Sabadell, intangible assets representing the client contracts of Lyxor and, since the second quarter of 2024, Alpha Associates, as well as other non-cash expenses related to the acquisition of Alpha Associates; These depreciation and amortization and non-cash expenses are recognized as a deduction from net revenues; restatement of the amortization of a technology asset related to the acquisition of AIXIGO recognized in operating expenses. The integration costs for the transaction with Victory Capital are also restated.

    Partnership with Victory Capital

    Victory Capital adjusts its US GAAP accounts to better reflect the Group’s economic performance. These US GAAP to Non-GAAP adjustments include, with the figures for the first quarter of 2025 included in Amundi’s financial statements for the second quarter of 2025, the amortisation of intangible assets and other acquisition-related charges, certain business tax, stock-based compensation, acquisition, restructuring and exit costs, Debt issuance costs and the tax benefit of goodwill and acquired intangible assets.

  • MIL-OSI: WISeKey Renews WebTrust Compliance for OISTE/WISeKey Global Root of Trust

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    WISeKey Renews WebTrust Compliance for OISTE/WISeKey Global Root of Trust

    Geneva and Zug, Switzerland – July 29, 2025 – WISeKey International Holding Ltd (“WISeKey”, SIX: WIHN; Nasdaq: WKEY), a global leader in cybersecurity and IoT, today announced the successful renewal of its WebTrust Seal of Assurance. This renewal confirms that WISeKey’s OISTE/WISeKey Trust Model and Certification Authority (CA) services meet the rigorous audit criteria established by the WebTrust program.

    The WebTrust for Certification Authorities program, now overseen by CPA Canada, is designed to strengthen public trust in digital certificate services and the broader PKI ecosystem. By maintaining this prestigious certification, WISeKey reinforces its position as a trusted provider of secure digital identity and cybersecurity solutions.

    Comprehensive Audit Scope
    WISeKey has successfully passed WebTrust audits in the following critical domains:

    • WebTrust for Certification Authorities – validates WISeKey’s operational integrity in the issuance and lifecycle management of digital certificates.
    • WebTrust for Baseline Requirements – confirms compliance with the CA/B Forum’s security and issuance standards for publicly trusted certificates.
    • WebTrust for Extended Validation (EV) – verifies WISeKey’s adherence to strict requirements for issuing EV SSL certificates.
    • WebTrust for S/MIME – introduced in 2024, it confirms WISeKey’s secure practices in issuing digital certificates for encrypted email communications.
    • WebTrust for Network Security – newly added in 2025, itattests to WISeKey’s robust cybersecurity controls across its infrastructure.

    Advancing Trust Services
    WISeKey delivers its trust services via next-generation certificate management platforms, which offer automated provisioning (via ACME and APIs), crypto-agility, and streamlined renewal and revocation processes, reducing operational risks and improving efficiency.

    This latest certification also covers WISeKey’s newly deployed Root Certification Authorities, which serve as the foundation for its post-quantum trust services. Through its subsidiary, SEALSQ Corp (Nasdaq: LAES), WISeKey is investing heavily in quantum-resistant solutions that integrate both software and hardware components.

    Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of WISeKey, stated: “The renewal of our WebTrust assurance demonstrates the reliability and resilience of WISeKey’s Trust Services. It reflects our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance for our global clients.”

    Expanding Global Recognition
    In addition to WebTrust accreditation, WISeKey undergoes regular assessments to meet the diverse compliance requirements of its multinational clientele. These include accreditations for:

    • Matter, the smart home standard supported by CSA, Google, Apple, and Amazon.
    • Wi-SUN Alliance, reflects WISeKey’s standing as a trusted root for critical IoT and home automation.
    • GSMA, ensurs compliance with mobile security standards, such as the issuance of digital certificates for eSIM.

    The Role of OISTE Roots in PKI and WISeKey Trust Services delivered by the WISeKey Holding
    OISTE Root Certificate Authorities (Root CAs) sit at the top of the PKI hierarchy. They issue and validate subordinate CAs, anchoring trust for all digital certificates downstream. If a Root CA is compromised, the entire trust chain can be invalidated, making trustworthiness and security paramount.
    Certificates issued by trusted CAs enable authentication, encryption, and integrity for digital communications. EV certificates, in particular, offer enhanced validation and are preferred for high-assurance applications.

    By maintaining WebTrust accreditation, OISTE’s Root CAs remain embedded in major browsers and operating systems, ensuring seamless interoperability and global recognition.

    WISeKey SA, another WISeKey subsidiary which specializes in RoT and PKI solutions for secure authentication and identification in IoT, Blockchain, and AI, acts as a “Trust Center” for the rest of companies of the group, centralizing and optimizing the investment in datacenter and PKI technologies.

  • Thailand-Cambodia border calm as military-level talks postponed

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    The ThailandCambodia border, where fighting has raged since last week, was calm on Tuesday following a ceasefire deal and military commanders from both sides are set to meet for talks later in the day, acting Thai Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai said.

    Phumtham and Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet met in Malaysia on Monday and agreed to halt their deadliest conflict in more than a decade following five days of intense fighting that killed at least 38 people, mostly civilians, and displaced over 300,000.

    The Thai army said in a statement there had been attacks by Cambodian troops in at least five locations early on Tuesday, violating the ceasefire that had come into effect from midnight, and Thailand‘s military had retaliated proportionately.

    Phumtham played down the clashes, and said he had spoken with Cambodia‘s defence minister ahead of the talks between military commanders.

    “There is no escalation,” Phumtham told reporters. “Right now things are calm.”

    Thai military officials in two areas had met with their Cambodian counterparts, but commanders along the stretch of the frontier that has seen the heaviest fighting during the conflict were yet to hold talks, Thai army spokesman Major Gen. Winthai Suvaree said in a statement.

    The parley had been scheduled for 10 a.m. local time (0300 GMT), but it was postponed and no new time had yet been set, he added.

    Maly Socheata, a spokesperson for the Cambodian Defence Ministry, said at a briefing on Tuesday that there had been no new fighting along the border.

    Vehicular traffic and daily activity resumed in the Kantharalak district of Thailand‘s Sisaket province on Tuesday, about 30 km (20 miles) from the frontlines, where Thai and Cambodian troops remain amassed.

    Cars and motorbikes returned to the streets, which had been largely empty since the border clashes began on Thursday, with military vehicles among civilian traffic.

    Chaiya Phumjaroen, 51, said he returned to town to reopen his shop early on Tuesday, after hearing of the ceasefire deal on the news.

    “I am very happy that a ceasefire happened,” he said. “If they continue to fight, we have no opportunity to make money.”

     

    TALKS AND TRADE

    The Southeast Asian neighbours have wrangled for decades over their disputed frontier and have been on a conflict footing since the killing of a Cambodian soldier in a skirmish late in May, which led to a troop buildup on both sides and a full-blown diplomatic crisis.

    Monday’s peace talks came after a sustained push by Malaysian Premier Anwar Ibrahim and U.S. President Donald Trump, with the latter warning Thai and Cambodian leaders that trade negotiations would not progress if fighting continued.

    Thailand and Cambodia face a tariff of 36% on their goods in the U.S., their biggest export market, unless a reduction can be negotiated. After the ceasefire deal was reached, Trump said he had spoken to both leaders and had instructed his trade team to restart tariff talks.

    Pichai Chunhavajira, Thailand‘s finance minister, said on Tuesday that trade talks with Washington are expected to be concluded before August 1, and that U.S. tariffs on the country are not expected to be as high as 36%.

  • Trump says he is not seeking summit with Xi, but may visit China

    Source: Government of India

    Source: Government of India (4)

    U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that he was not seeking a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, but added that he may visit China at Xi’s invitation, which Trump said had been extended.

    “I may go to China, but it would only be at the invitation of President Xi, which has been extended. Otherwise, no interest!,” Trump said on Truth Social.

    Aides to Trump and Xi have discussed a potential meeting between the leaders during a trip by the U.S. president to Asia later this year, sources previously told Reuters.

    A trip would be the first face-to-face encounter between the men since Trump’s second term in office, at a time when trade and security tensions between the two superpower rivals remain elevated.

    While plans for a meeting have not been finalized, discussions on both sides of the Pacific have included a possible Trump stopover around the time of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in South Korea or talks on the sidelines of the October 30-November 1 event, the people said.

    The third round of U.S.-China trade talks taking place in Stockholm this week may lay the groundwork ahead of a leaders’ summit in the autumn, analysts say.

    A new flare-up of tariffs and export controls would likely impact any plans for a meeting with Xi.

    Source: Government of India (4)

    As heavy rain lashed the national capital on Tuesday morning, Air India issued a travel advisory cautioning passengers that flight operations to and from Delhi may be affected due to adverse weather conditions.

    The airline advised travelers to check their flight status on its official website before leaving for the airport and to allow extra time for their journey.

    “Gusty winds and rain may impact flight operations to and from Delhi this morning. Please check your flight status… before heading to the airport and allow extra time for your journey,” said Air India on X.

    The downpour, accompanied by thunderstorms, brought much-needed relief from the humid weather in several parts of Delhi.

    Meanwhile, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecasted heavy to very heavy rainfall across large parts of the country until August 4. On July 29, extremely heavy rain is expected over eastern Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh, while Uttarakhand, Punjab, and Haryana may witness heavy showers.

    In western India, Konkan and Gujarat are likely to experience isolated heavy rainfall on July 29, with light to moderate showers predicted over the next 6–7 days.

    Northeast India, including Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, is expected to see heavy to very heavy rainfall. Eastern and central states like Bihar and Madhya Pradesh may face isolated heavy rain and thunderstorms.

    In southern India, heavy rainfall is likely over Kerala and coastal Karnataka on July 29 and 30, accompanied by strong winds ranging between 40–50 kmph. Light to moderate rain with thunderstorms is expected in most southern states throughout the week.

    The IMD further stated that fairly widespread to widespread rainfall is expected over northwest, northeast, and eastern regions of the country in the coming days, while central and peninsular India may witness scattered to fairly widespread rain.

    For Wednesday, the IMD has issued a warning for heavy to very heavy rainfall at isolated places in eastern Rajasthan.

  • Parliament to resume debate on Operation Sindoor today

    The Rajya Sabha is scheduled to begin its discussion on Operation Sindoor on Tuesday. The operation, launched by the Indian Armed Forces, was conducted in retaliation to the Pahalgam terror attack that resulted in the deaths of 26 people, most of them tourists.

    Meanwhile, the Lok Sabha will continue the debate on Operation Sindoor for the second consecutive day. On Monday, the House opened the discussion with Defence Minister Rajnath Singh initiating the debate. He described India’s cross-border strikes as accurate, precise, and non-escalatory, and said that the operation served a specific objective.

    “Operation Sindoor’s main purpose was to destroy and decimate terror factories operating from Pakistani soil. It was stopped because the goal of dismantling terror bases and nurseries was achieved,” the Defence Minister told the House.

    He also said that it was the Indian government which decided to call off Operation Sindoor and there was no pressure from any entity or nation, as claimed by the Opposition and their claims are “blatantly false” and “misleading”.

    Singh further criticised the Opposition for focusing on issues that he termed as relatively minor, stating that such distractions could compromise national security. “When the aim is to go higher, we should not pay attention to small issues because focusing on issues that remain comparatively small can divert attention from national security,” he said.

    External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar, who also addressed the House during the debate, said India’s response to cross-border terrorism has undergone a strategic shift, which he described as the “new normal.” He said the country had moved past an era of strategic restraint and was now defining its own terms.

    He elaborated on this evolving doctrine: Terrorists will not be treated as proxies, cross-border attacks will be met with direct and appropriate response, there will be no dialogue except on terrorism – talks and terror cannot go hand-in-hand, India will not bow to nuclear intimidation, and good neighbourly ties are incompatible with terrorism – blood and water cannot flow together.

    Participating in the debate, Deputy Leader of the Lok Sabha Gaurav Gogoi criticised the government for its handling of the April 22 attack. He said that more than 100 days had passed since the incident, but the five perpetrators had not been apprehended. Gogoi also questioned the rationale behind stopping Operation Sindoor after Pakistan capitulated, asking why the government did not proceed to reclaim areas under illegal occupation by the neighbouring country.

    Congress, the principal opposition party, has been allotted around two hours to present its views in the Upper House, with party president Mallikarjun Kharge expected to lead the debate.

    Delhi witnessed an intense spell of rain on Tuesday morning, bringing much-needed relief from the prevailing humid conditions.

    However, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued warnings of continued heavy rainfall across Delhi-NCR, raising concerns over flooding and traffic disruptions.

    According to the IMD, the downpour may lead to waterlogging in low-lying areas, road flooding, closure of underpasses, traffic congestion, reduced visibility, and potential damage to plantations, standing crops, and weak structures, including kutcha houses.

    In response to the inclement weather, Air India issued a travel advisory alerting passengers to possible disruptions in flight operations to and from Delhi. The airline urged travellers to check their flight status and allow extra time while heading to the airport.

    Similarly,  IndiGo and SpiceJet also issued travel advisories, warning passengers of potential disruptions to flight operations on Tuesday morning.

    The IMD has forecast heavy to very heavy rainfall across large parts of the country until August 4. On Tuesday, extremely heavy rainfall is expected in Northwest India, particularly East Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh, while Uttarakhand, Punjab, and Haryana will continue to receive heavy showers.

    In West India, regions such as Konkan and Gujarat are expected to experience isolated heavy rain on July 29, with light to moderate rainfall forecast for the next six to seven days.

    Northeast India, including Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, is also likely to witness heavy to very heavy rainfall, while East and Central India, including Bihar and Madhya Pradesh, may see isolated heavy rain and thunderstorms.

    In South Peninsular India, states like Kerala and Coastal Karnataka are expected to receive heavy rain and strong winds (40–50 kmph) on July 29–30, along with light to moderate rainfall across most areas through the coming week.

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Participates in High-Level International Conference for Peaceful Settlement of Question of Palestine and Implementation of Two-State Solution

    Source: Government of Qatar

    New York, July 28

    HE Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani participated on Monday in the plenary session of the High-Level International Conference for the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution, held in the United Nations General Assembly Hall in New York.

    In Qatar’s statement to the plenary session, His Excellency said that this conference is being held at a critical moment for the region amid a horrific war waged by Israel on the Gaza Strip for two years and a worsening humanitarian tragedy affecting more than two million people, most of whom are women and children.

    In one of the most brutal and heartbreaking moments of this tragedy, we witnessed scenes that are a disgrace to all of humanity – hungry civilians, who are exhausted by the blockade, and who get killed while standing in line waiting for a loaf of bread, a bag of flour, or a meal to feed their children, His Excellency noted.

    He wondered: What future can be built on the bodies of the starving? And what peace can emerge in the midst of such hunger, humiliation, and killing?

    HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs explained that, in the face of this catastrophic situation, the State of Qatar has not hesitated to exert all its diplomatic efforts to stop the bloodshed of innocents, alleviate their suffering, and release prisoners and detainees.

    He said that the State of Qatar, based on its firm position, condemns all forms of targeting civilians. It categorically rejects double standards. A human being is a human being, and a child is a child. None of us has the right to discriminate between innocents and their right to life on political or other grounds. The situation has reached the point of normalizing the use of starvation and targeting hospitals as a method of war, setting precedents that we cannot accept, otherwise it will become a normal practice in every conflict from now on.

    His Excellency reiterated the State of Qatar’s categorical rejection of the use of food as a tool of pressure or a weapon in conflicts, and its condemnation in the strongest terms of the blockade and forced displacement policies practiced against innocent civilians, as well as the repeated targeting of hospitals, displacement centers, and vital facilities, in flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.

    His Excellency noted that the mediation efforts undertaken by the State of Qatar, in partnership with the Arab Republic of Egypt and the United States of America, have yielded tangible results, represented by the entry of large quantities of aid and the release of hundreds of prisoners and detainees on both sides.

    HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs affirmed that, despite reoccurring obstacles and attempts to undermine the humanitarian track, efforts are ongoing to reach an immediate ceasefire, setting the stage to ending the crisis and launching recovery and reconstruction efforts. He stressed that this requires all parties to act responsibly and support mediation efforts.

    His Excellency noted that the war against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip has not only caused unprecedented suffering for innocent civilians but has also undermined the credibility of international law and the universal values upon which the international community institutions were founded after World War II.

    He added that it has also become clear that policies of force have failed and will continue to fail in eliminating the Palestinian cause.

    All they have achieved is to worsen the situation with more tragedy, bitterness, a sense of injustice, and horrific scenes of death and destruction that will remain etched in the memory of people around the world, His Excellency continued.

    The horrors of this war and its political failure prove that there is no alternative to a just and comprehensive settlement of the Palestinian cause, he said, adding that the key lies in acknowledging the historical injustice suffered by the Palestinian people and applying long-overdue justice, delayed for nearly eighty years.

    The State of Qatar, based on its unwavering support for peace, affirms its full support for the objectives of this conference and its keenness to play an active role in ensuring its success and enhancing the chances of a peaceful solution in the Middle East, His Excellency said, noting that the State of Qatar co-chaired the conference’s third working group, which is concerned with the topic of “Narratives of Peace.”

    His Excellency explained that this team addressed important topics and concluded with priority principles and proposals that contribute to the success of the conference’s overall objective. In order to create a conducive environment for achieving sustainable peace, there is a need to promote positive narratives that support peace between the two sides, based on rejecting violence, renouncing inflammatory rhetoric, and confronting attempts to dehumanize the other side, he added.

    HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs reaffirmed the State of Qatar’s steadfast position in support of a peaceful resolution to the Palestinian cause, in accordance with international law, UN resolutions, and the two-state solution, being the only viable option to end the conflict and achieve a comprehensive and just peace.

    He added that from this standpoint, Qatar calls for a clear and unified international stance that opposes all practices that obstruct negotiations and the chances of achieving a just and lasting peace. In this context, His Excellency welcomed the recognition of the State of Palestine within the borders of June 4, 1967, encompassing the West Bank and Gaza Strip by several countries, describing such recognition as a crucial step toward achieving both regional and international peace and stability.

    His Excellency also reiterated the State of Qatar’s welcome of the French Republic’s commitment to recognize the State of Palestine this coming September.

    HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs considered that the convening of this conference represents a collective international will to move from words to actions, and to genuinely contribute to advancing the peaceful resolution of the Palestinian Cause in all its dimensions.

    His Excellency pointed out that the international community bears a key responsibility in creating the right conditions for a durable and just resolution, including restoring the relevance of international legitimacy following this devastating war, and providing the necessary political, economic, and humanitarian support.

    HE the Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs expressed the State of Qatar’s hope that this conference will mark a turning point, leading to tangible commitments that go beyond declarations and stances, and paving the way for concrete steps toward the implementation of the two-state solution, which would guarantee a just, comprehensive, and lasting resolution to the conflict as well as contributing to peace, security, and stability throughout the region.

    At the beginning of his statement, His Excellency expressed sincere appreciation to HE President of the French Republic Emmanuel Macron and HRH Crown Prince and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, for their initiative in organizing this historic conference under the auspices of the United Nations, addressing one of the oldest unresolved peace and security issues and one of the last vestiges of colonial injustice still on the international agenda.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Leading Israeli Human Rights Groups Accuse Israel of Committing Genocide in Gaza

    JERUSALEM, July 29 (Xinhua) — Two prominent Israeli human rights organizations, B’Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights in Israel (PHRI), on Monday released separate reports claiming for the first time that Israel is committing genocide in the Gaza Strip.

    B’Tselem’s report says Israel’s military offensive on Gaza, which has lasted more than 21 months, has been accompanied by mass killings, both directly and by creating uninhabitable conditions.

    This is compounded by mass arrests and abuse of Palestinians in Israeli prisons, which have effectively become torture camps, the report says, adding that Israel is also responsible for the destruction of Gaza’s social fabric, including the destruction of Palestinian educational and cultural institutions.

    The report said it concluded that Israel was committing genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

    A second report by PHRI says there is a “deliberate and gradual dismantling of Gaza’s health system and with it the population’s ability to survive.” It says this amounts to genocide.

    The document also says that since October 2023, Israel has attacked 33 of 36 hospitals and clinics in the Gaza Strip, depriving them of fuel and water.

    Dozens of people are reported to be dying every day from malnutrition. At least 85 children have died from starvation, and 92 percent of infants aged six months to two years are not receiving adequate nutrition.

    The report says Israel has displaced nine out of every 10 Gazans, destroyed or damaged 92 percent of homes and left more than half a million children without schools or stability.

    Both organizations called on the international community to stop Israel’s offensive to prevent further loss of life in Gaza.

    Israeli government spokesman David Menser on Monday rejected accusations of genocide as baseless, saying Israel had sent 1.9 million tons of humanitarian aid, mostly food, to Gaza.

    According to him, the human rights activists’ reports are an attempt to deprive Israel of the right to self-defense against the Hamas movement. –0–

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Syria’s interim authorities must act in a disciplined manner – UN special envoy

    UNITED NATIONS, July 28 (Xinhua) — The UN Secretary-General’s Special Envoy for Syria Geir Pedersen said on Monday that the interim authorities in Syria must act in a professional and disciplined manner.

    “A sovereign Syria must ultimately have a monopoly on the legitimate use of force and operate within the rule of law,” he told the UN Security Council.

    Mr. Pedersen expressed concern about credible reports of widespread violations in As-Suwayda, including summary executions and arbitrary killings, kidnappings, destruction of private property and looting of homes. He noted that the alleged perpetrators included members of the Syrian security forces and individuals associated with the interim authorities.

    “Religious incitement and offensive behaviour, particularly during security operations, are simply unforgivable. The state has a responsibility to act professionally and with discipline, even when under attack. It must take control of its forces and ensure clear accountability – the key to rebuilding trust, strengthening security and promoting unity,” he said.

    Syrians must feel that the state and its forces exist only to protect them, according to the stated policy of the interim president, Pedersen said, adding that “the gap between this policy and the reality on the ground must be closed.”

    Loyalty to the state “must be earned through a genuine process that builds a representative state, protects the rights of all and accepts all sections of society as equals,” he added.

    Speaking about the inclusiveness of the political transition, Pedersen said that “many Syrians express concerns about the centralization of power, limited transparency, weak checks and balances, and insufficient means for genuine public consultation, participation and oversight,” warning of the risk of “deepening feelings of alienation and undermining faith in the transition process.”

    The UN envoy said the formation of the People’s Council was a crucial step in the political transition and was expected to take place in September.

    “It is absolutely essential that all major Syrian groups and components are fully involved in the elections as voters and candidates,” Pedersen said, referring to the importance of women’s participation in the process.

    The UN envoy said the world body “stands ready to do everything we can to help, working with the interim authorities and all Syrians,” adding that “the political transition in Syria simply cannot fail.” –0–
