MIL-Evening Report: The Rainbow Warrior saga. Part 2: Nuclear refugees in the Pacific – the evacuation of Rongelap
COMMENTARY: By Eugene Doyle

On the last voyage of the Rainbow Warrior prior to its sinking by French secret agents in Auckland harbour on 10 July 1985 the ship had evacuated the entire population of 320 from Rongelap in the Marshall Islands.

After conducting dozens of above-ground nuclear explosions, the US government had left the population in conditions that suggested the islanders were being used as guinea pigs to gain knowledge of the effects of radiation.

Cancers, birth defects, and genetic damage ripped through the population; their former fisheries and land are contaminated to this day.

Denied adequate support from the US – they turned to Greenpeace with an SOS: help us leave our ancestral homeland; it is killing our people. The Rainbow Warrior answered the call.

Human lab rats or our brothers and sisters?
Dr Merrill Eisenbud, a physicist in the US Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) famously said in 1956 of the Marshall Islanders: “While it is true that these people do not live, I might say, the way Westerners do, civilised people, it is nevertheless also true that they are more like us than the mice.”

Dr Eisenbud also opined that exposure “would provide valuable information on the effects of radiation on human beings.” That research continues to this day.

A half century of testing nuclear bombs
Within a year of dropping nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the US moved part of its test programme to the central Pacific. Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands was used for atmospheric explosions from 1946 with scant regard for the indigenous population.

In 1954, the Castle Bravo test exploded a 15-megaton bomb — one thousand times more deadly than the one dropped on Hiroshima. As a result, the population of Rongelap were exposed to 200 roentgens of radiation, considered life-threatening without medical intervention. And it was.

Total US tests equaled more than 7000 Hiroshimas. The Clinton administration released the aptly-named Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments (ACHRE), report in January 1994 in which it acknowledged:

“What followed was a program by the US government — initially the Navy and then the AEC and its successor agencies — to provide medical care for the exposed population, while at the same time trying to learn as much as possible about the long-term biological effects of radiation exposure. The dual purpose of what is now a DOE medical program has led to a view by the Marshallese that they were being used as ‘guinea pigs’ in a ‘radiation experiment’.

This impression was reinforced by the fact that the islanders were deliberately left in place and then evacuated, having been heavily radiated. Three years later they were told it was “safe to return” despite the lead scientist calling Rongelap “by far the most contaminated place in the world”.

Significant compensation paid by the US to the Marshall Islands has proven inadequate given the scale of the contamination. To some degree, the US has also used money to achieve capture of elite interest groups and secure ongoing control of the islands.

Entrusted to the US, the Marshall Islanders were treated like the civilians of Nagasaki
The US took the Marshall Islands from Japan in 1944. The only “right” it has to be there was granted by the United Nations which in 1947 established the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, to be administered by the United States.

What followed was an abuse of trust worse than rapists at a state care facility. Using the very powers entrusted to it to protect the Marshallese, the US instead used the islands as a nuclear laboratory — violating both the letter and spirit of international law.

Fellow white-dominated countries like Australia and New Zealand couldn’t have cared less and let the indigenous people be irradiated for decades.

The betrayal of trust by the US was comprehensive and remains so to this day:

Under Article 76 of the UN Charter, all trusteeship agreements carried obligations. The administering power was required to:

Promote the political, economic, social, and educational advancement of the people

Protect the rights and well-being of the inhabitants

Help them advance toward self-government or independence.

Under Article VI, the United States solemnly pledged to “Protect the inhabitants against the loss of their lands and resources.” Very similar to sentiments in New Zealand’s Treaty of Waitangi. Within a few years the Americans were exploding the biggest nuclear bombs in history over the islands.

Within a year of the US assuming trusteeship of the islands, another pillar of international law came into effect: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) — which affirms the inherent dignity and equal rights of all humans. Exposing colonised peoples to extreme radiation for weapons testing is a racist affront to this.

America has a long history of making treaties and fine speeches and then exploiting indigenous peoples. Last year, I had the sobering experience of reading American military historian Peter Cozzens’ The Earth is Weeping, a history of the “Indian wars” for the American West.

The past is not dead: the Marshall Islands are a hive of bases, laboratories and missile testing; Americans are also incredibly busy attacking the population in Gaza today.

Eyes of Fire – the last voyage of the Rainbow Warrior
Had the French not sunk the Rainbow Warrior after it reached Auckland from the Rongelap evacuation, it would have led a flotilla to protest nuclear testing at Moruroa in French Polynesia. So the bookends of this article are the abuse of defenceless people in the charge of one nuclear power — the US — and the abuse of New Zealand and the peoples of French Polynesia by another nuclear power — France.

This incredible story, and much more, is the subject of David Robie’s outstanding book Eyes of Fire: The Last Voyage and Legacy of the Rainbow Warrior, published by Little Island Press, which has been relaunched to mark the 40th anniversary of the French terrorist attack.

A new prologue by former prime minister Helen Clark and a preface by Greenpeace’s Bunny McDiarmid, along with an extensive postscript which bring us up to the present day, underline why the past is not dead; it’s with us right now.

Between them, France and the US have exploded more than 300 nuclear bombs in the Pacific. Few people are told this; few people know this.

Today, a matrix of issues combine — the ongoing effects of nuclear contamination, sea rise imperilling Pacific nations, colonialism still posing immense challenges to people in the Marshall Islands, Kanaky New Caledonia and in many parts of our region.

Unsung heroes
Our media never ceases to share the pronouncements of European leaders and news from the US and Europe but the leaders and issues of the Pacific are seldom heard. The heroes of the antinuclear movement should be household names in Australia and New Zealand.

Vanuatu’s great leader Father Walter Lini; Oscar Temaru, Mayor, later President of French Polynesia; Senator Jeton Anjain, Darlene Keju-Johnson and so many others.

Do we know them? Have we heard their voices?

Jobod Silk, climate activist, said in a speech welcoming the Rainbow Warrior III to Majuro earlier this year: “Our crusade for nuclear justice intertwines with our fight against the tides.”

Nuclear-Free and Independent Pacific . . . the Rainbow Warrior taking on board Rongelap islanders ready for their first of four relocation voyages to Mejatto island. Image: David Robie/Eyes of Fire

Former Tuvalu PM Enele Sapoaga castigated Australia for the AUKUS submarine deal which he said “was crafted in secret by former Prime Minister Scott Morrison with no public discussion.”

He challenged the bigger regional powers, particularly Australia and New Zealand, to remember that the existential threat faced by Pacific nations comes first from climate change, and reminded New Zealanders of the commitment to keeping the South Pacific nuclear-free.

Hinamoeura Cross, a Tahitian anti-nuclear activist and politician, said in a 2019 UN speech: “Today, the damage is done. My people are sick. For 30 years we were the mice in France’s laboratory.”

Until we learn their stories and know their names as well as we know those of Marco Rubio or Keir Starmer, we will remain strangers in our own lands.

The Pacific owes them, along with the people of Greenpeace, a huge debt. They put their bodies on the line to stop the aggressors. Greenpeace photographer Fernando Pereira, killed by the French in 1985, was just one of many victims, one of many heroes.

A great way to honour the sacrifice of those who stood up for justice, who stood for peace and a nuclear-free Pacific, and who honoured our own national identity would be to buy David Robie’s excellent book.

You cannot sink a rainbow.

HOHHOT, July 6 (Xinhua) — The construction of an anti-sand belt spanning three deserts in north China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region has been completed, marking a major achievement in the country’s efforts to combat desertification.

Workers on Sunday completed laying the last of the straw-and-grass geogrid as a sand barrier, putting the finishing touches on the final section of a 1,856-km green barrier across the Badain Jaran, Tengger and Ulan Bukh deserts designed to stop further desert advances.

The three deserts located in Alashan Province, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, cover a total area of 94,700 square kilometers, accounting for 83.04 percent of the total desert area in the region.

“We use straw-grass geogrids to stabilize the shifting sand, and then plant drought-resistant plants such as saxaul. This approach helps us establish an effective sand prevention and control system, which ultimately strengthens the ecological barrier,” said Zhang Yuyun, chief engineer of the Alashan Right Banner Forestry and Desertification Control Administration.

Over the past four decades, Alashan aimag has carried out measures to prevent and combat desertification in an area of almost 100 million mu (6.67 million hectares). The aimag has also created two anti-sand belts with a total length of 460 km and a width of 3 to 20 km along the southeastern edge of the Tengger Desert and the southwestern edge of the Ulan-Bukh Desert. -0-

Prime Minister Narendra Modi was welcomed by Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva at the Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday as he arrived to attend the 17th BRICS Leaders Summit.

The Prime Minister will join other BRICS leaders to deliberate on global issues, including reforms in global governance, peace and security, multilateralism, artificial intelligence, climate change, global health, and economic challenges.

This is PM Modi’s fourth visit to Brazil. After the two-day Summit, he will travel to Brasília for a State Visit — the first by an Indian Prime Minister in nearly six decades.

“As a founding member, India remains committed to BRICS as a vital platform for cooperation among emerging economies,” the PM had said earlier this week. “Together, we strive for a more peaceful, equitable, just, democratic, and balanced multipolar world order.”

On the sidelines of the Summit, PM Modi is expected to hold bilateral meetings with several world leaders.

The last BRICS Summit, hosted by Russia in Kazan in October 2024, came at a time when the world was grappling with multiple challenges, including conflicts, climate impacts, and cyber threats.

This year’s Summit holds significance for India as it will assume the BRICS Chairship next year. India last chaired the grouping in 2021, marking its 15th anniversary.

India has consistently pitched itself as the voice of the Global South, pushing for the interests of developing countries on platforms like BRICS.

The theme for this year’s Summit is ‘Strengthening Global South Cooperation for Inclusive and Sustainable Governance*. Sunday’s discussions will focus first on reforms in global governance, limited to full members only.

Talks will then cover peace and security, multilateralism, economic and financial affairs, and the responsible use of AI, followed by an official reception hosted by President Lula.

On Monday, leaders will meet again to discuss environment issues, COP30, and global health.

MIL-OSI Analysis: University leaders have to make sense of massive disruption — 4 ways they do it

Source: The Conversation – Canada – By Daniel Atlin, Adjunct Professor, Gordon S. Lang School of Business, University of Guelph

Trying to navigate an environment where massive disruption and unprecedented change is the norm presents a challenge for business leaders everywhere.

Social-purpose, multi-stakeholder organizations like post-secondary institutions, hospitals, governments and NGOs are particularly affected.

The practice of “sense-making” — making sense of the situations people find themselves in, in the words of organizational theorist Karl Weick — offers an innovative and timely framework that can help social-purpose leaders address complexity.

Senior post-secondary leaders study

Management experts have described sense-making as the key skill needed in an age of disruption. This has been confirmed through my research while completing a master’s degree in change leadership.

I interviewed more than two dozen senior leaders in complex organizations in Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand — the majority of whom were in the post-secondary sector. I found the leaders I interviewed were intuitively using elements from Weick’s organizational sense-making framework.

As one leader shared:

“The first thing you need to do is to recognize that it’s your role to help the rest of your community make sense of what’s happening around you. It’s something that I take very seriously.”

Deborah Ancona, professor of management at MIT, says:

“Sense-making is most often needed when our understanding of the world becomes unintelligible in some way. This occurs when the environment is changing rapidly, presenting us with surprises for which we are unprepared or confronting us with adaptive, rather than technical problems to solve.”

Leading in ‘age of outrage’

Social-purpose organizations face common issues such as a lack of funding, system fragmentation, competing stakeholders, new entrants and the challenges of emerging technologies.

They are also at the centre of what business and public policy professor Karthik Ramana describes as “the age of outrage,” reflected in heightened polarization. Against this backdrop, it’s increasingly challenging to attract and retain leaders.

I heard from leaders who felt they didn’t have the proper training for the job or support once they started their roles. In part, this is because few of them, including those involved in their hiring, seem to realize the actual messiness inherent within their organizations.

This brings to mind the parable that writer David Foster Wallace used in his 2005 convocation speech at Kenyon College, in which two young fish are told by an older fish that they are swimming in water. One of the young fish then turns to the other in surprise and says: “What is water anyway?”

Lack of agency

I heard from various leaders who experienced an “aha” moment when they realized they were immersed within a fluid and dynamic organizational environment that they were expected to run like a traditional business. This realization gave them a framework to understand the lack of agency they often experienced.

The challenge with social-purpose organizations is that they’re complex adaptive systems in which individual interactions form an ever-changing array of networks generating emergent behaviours that are often unpredictable. Complex adaptive systems also tend to revert to the status quo when faced with change.

So how do social-purpose leaders navigate change and this challenging organizational context? They wrap their efforts around purpose. It’s an anchor point and unifying focus for leaders, teams and all stakeholders.

4 strategies

Based on my research, I’ve identified four main sense-making strategies that leaders use:

Exploration and map-making: These pursuits help leaders extract a steady flow of information and data from their interactions both inside and outside their organizations. This allows them to develop high-level, adaptive frameworks that are constantly in flux — similar to Google Maps, as it generates live snapshots of traffic flows and suggested routes.

Storytelling and narrative development: Leaders use storytelling and narrative development to project ideas, purposes and visions into the future. This allows them to connect emotionally and inspire people and communities. Recognizing their role as storyteller-in-chief can align disparate parts of an organization into a coherent and engaged whole.

Invention and improvisation: These are employed by leaders to test assumptions as they learn what works and what doesn’t. This approach allows them to respond in real time to the never-ending flow of new information. Without taking risks, leaders are at risk of being stuck in paralysis.

Adaptation and collaboration allows leaders to help their organizations remain relevant. Leaders spoke about the need to foster adaptation. They also stressed the need to attract new resources through collaboration across like-minded institutions, governments, funding partners and the private sector.

Embracing a sense-making mindset

Thinking that benefits the interests and perspectives of the total enterprise is a critical but challenging task for leaders in social- purpose organizations.

Time and energy — two scarce resources — are necessary to build aligned and high-performing teams and to break down silos. Team alignment cannot be achieved through the occasional team-building session, but requires an ongoing commitment and a well-articulated plan.

Social-purpose organizations need practices, frameworks and metrics that are tailored to organizations’ unique needs. Rather than spending resources, time and energy on strategic plans, some leaders are building more flexible strategic frameworks or using strategic foresight to guide an innovative vision for the future.

Leadership can be lonely

It’s also important to remember that leadership can be lonely. To survive and thrive, social-purpose leaders must remember to seek out their own coaches and build communities of practice to enhance their lived experience and activities.

Developing an outer shell to weather criticism also helps. While leaders can’t please everyone, sense-making leaders find strength and build endurance in the recognition that the roles they play are meaningful, satisfying and essential — not only within the organizations they serve but through the collective work their organizations accomplish in the world.

Leaders (and board members) must realize that hiring the same people with the same profile as the past won’t make an organization ready for change, but instead reinforces the status quo.

By recognizing the messiness of their organizations and using sense-making skills, leaders in social-purpose organizations have better odds of surviving the perils and challenges of massive disruption and unprecedented change.

BEIJING, July 6 (Xinhua) — China will take corresponding measures on some medical equipment imported from the European Union (EU) under government procurement projects in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, the Ministry of Finance said Sunday.

When purchasing medical equipment worth more than 45 million yuan (about 6.29 million US dollars), if there is a real need to purchase imported products, the purchaser must exclude the participation of European Union enterprises – except for enterprises with foreign investment from the EU operating in China – after completing the procedures established by law, the ministry said.

For non-EU companies participating in public procurement projects, the share of medical equipment imported from the EU that they provide must not exceed 50% of the total amount in the project contract.

The above measures do not apply to procurement projects in which the need for goods can be met only by means of medical equipment imported from the EU, the Finance Ministry said in a statement.

This notification comes into force on July 6, 2025. With respect to procurement projects for which the winners of the tenders or the results of the transactions have already been announced before July 6 of this year, the above measures do not apply, and the corresponding public procurement contracts can continue to be signed, the ministry said in a statement. -0-

VIENNA, July 6 (Xinhua) — OPEC countries announced on Saturday they will increase oil production by 548,000 barrels per day in August, a faster pace than in July.

In July, OPEC countries announced an increase in oil production by 411,000 barrels per day as part of a plan to gradually unwind the latest level of production cuts.

The decision was taken on Saturday during a virtual meeting where the countries involved, including Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, Algeria and Oman, reviewed global market conditions and prospects, the organization said in a statement on its website.

The adjustment was made taking into account “the stable global economic outlook and current healthy market fundamentals, as reflected in low oil inventory levels,” the statement said, adding that the gradual ramp-up could be suspended or reversed depending on changing market conditions.

The 2.2 million bpd production cut, originally announced in November 2023, was implemented in the first quarter of 2024. Since then, the cut has been extended several times, until the first quarter of 2025. –0–

MIL-OSI Russia: Special Prosecutor Requests Detention Warrant for Former South Korean President Yoon Seok-yel

SEOUL, July 6 (Xinhua) — The special prosecutor investigating former South Korean President Yun Seok-yul’s attempted imposition of martial law has requested a warrant for his detention, a spokesman for the special prosecutor’s team said Sunday.

Independent special prosecutor Cho Eun-seok, who is handling the sedition and other charges against the former president, has asked the Seoul Central District Court to issue a warrant.

Charges listed in the warrant include obstruction of justice, abuse of power and falsification of official documents, the spokesman said.

The warrant was requested to detain Yun Seok Yeol for an extended period of time, at least 20 days.

The independent prosecutor’s team, which began its investigation on June 18, last month requested an arrest warrant for Yoon Seok-yeol for up to 48 hours, but the court rejected the request because Yoon Seok-yeol’s side said he was willing to appear for questioning at the special prosecutor’s request.

On June 19, Yoon Seok-yeol ignored a police summons for a third time in a case involving his order to thwart an attempted arrest in January by presidential security forces and delete information from secure phones given to three military commanders.

Let us recall that Yun Seok-yol was detained in the presidential administration building on January 15. On January 26, while in custody, he was charged with organizing a rebellion. However, on March 8, the politician was released after the prosecutor’s office decided not to appeal the court’s decision.

On April 4, the Constitutional Court upheld a motion to impeach Yun Seok-yul over the attempted imposition of martial law last December, formally removing him from office. –0–

MIL-OSI Africa: President highlights investment opportunities at SA-Austria Business Forum

Source: Government of South Africa

President Cyril Ramaphosa has reaffirmed South Africa’s commitment to strengthening bilateral trade and investment ties with Austria, highlighting a range of mutually beneficial opportunities across key economic sectors.

Speaking at the South Africa-Austria Business Forum in Pretoria on Friday, President Ramaphosa underscored the importance of deepening economic collaboration between the two countries.

“It is my pleasure to address the South Africa-Austria Business Forum at this important time, as we seek to further deepen economic ties between our countries.

“Austria and South Africa enjoy strong bilateral trade and investment relations spanning energy, industrial technology, pharmaceuticals and vocational training,” he said.

The President noted that trade between the two countries has been steadily increasing, with several Austrian companies operating in South Africa through direct investments, distribution, sales offices and service projects.

“There are many more opportunities for investment by Austrian companies in South Africa. There are opportunities in areas such as renewable energy generation, agro-processing and component manufacturing opportunities.

“There are also opportunities in critical minerals beneficiations, pharmaceuticals, technology and innovation, among others,” President Ramaphosa said.

South Africa, he said, is showing signs of recovery following recent economic challenges. The improvement in electricity supply and a moderation in inflation are among the encouraging signs.

“We have embarked on a massive infrastructure drive, with key investments concentrated in energy, transport and logistics, water and sanitation, and digital infrastructure,” the President said.

He detailed the role of the country’s Infrastructure Fund, which has mobilised blended financing to support major projects across several sectors. At the same time, structural reforms are being implemented to enhance the efficiency and competitiveness of energy and logistics sectors.

As the global economy transitions towards greener alternatives, President Ramaphosa said South Africa is positioning itself as a front-runner in the green and digital economy.

“South Africa has developed a regulatory framework to harness the potential of the hydrogen economy. We are actively developing an industrial plan to support the growth of electric vehicle and battery production,” he said.

This industrial strategy includes incentives for manufacturers, investment in charging infrastructure and localisation of components. It is supported by an enabling policy environment, including the expansion of special economic zones and active participation in the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).

“Our special economic zones offer an internationally competitive value proposition with an attractive suite of incentives,” he noted.

President Ramaphosa said the AfCFTA will remove trade barriers and unlock greater investment opportunities, particularly for Austrian businesses looking to enter new markets across the continent.

“It will drive a wave of industrialisation and create dynamic regional value chains. This presents opportunities for Austrian businesses and investors,” he said.

Highlighting South Africa’s role as an anchor in regional value chains, he said the country’s manufacturing sector sources inputs from across the continent, which are then exported as finished goods.

South Africa also offers rich reserves of critical minerals for the energy transition, especially platinum group metals, giving it a competitive edge in producing sustainable energy technologies.

Beyond investment, President Ramaphosa said, South African businesses are keen to explore Austrian opportunities, particularly in organic food markets, renewable energy, and supply chains across mining, automotive and other sectors.

“There is high demand for our agricultural products in the EU, including high-quality South African wines and speciality foods like rooibos,” he said.

On tourism, the President expressed the country’s desire to see more Austrian tourists visiting South Africa and vice versa, with a particular interest in eco, sports, and heritage tourism.

He also welcomed the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding earlier in the day on technical and vocational training.

“We want to learn from Austria on how to achieve the delicate balance between building the workforce of the future and growing the skills needed by the economy today,” President Ramaphosa said.

Closing his address, the President affirmed the South African government’s continued commitment to private sector collaboration as a catalyst for economic growth and job creation.

“By working together with all social partners, we have embarked on a new era of growth, progress and inclusive, shared prosperity. I am confident that the engagements, discussions and networking sessions from this forum will yield great benefits for both South African and Austrian companies.

“It is clear from this Business Forum that there are abundant opportunities for even greater partnership, progress and shared prosperity,” he said. – SAnews.gov.za

HANGZHOU, July 6 (Xinhua) — An emergency response was activated in east China’s Zhejiang Province on Sunday morning to deal with Typhoon Danas, the fourth typhoon this year.

According to the provincial meteorological observatory, Danas is expected to move northeast at 10-15 km per hour, cross the Taiwan Strait from south to north between Sunday afternoon and Monday morning, and possibly either pass by or make landfall on the west coast of Taiwan Island.

The typhoon will reach the East China Sea on Monday and may make landfall in coastal areas from central and southern Zhejiang Province to northern Fujian Province in east China after midday Tuesday, the observatory added.

The Zhejiang provincial government called on all coastal regions and various departments to closely monitor the typhoon’s development trend, intensify joint consultations and take preventive measures in accordance with the emergency plan. These include sheltering ships in bays, anchoring fishing boats, suspending navigation on sea routes, suspending work on construction projects and closing off marine tourism areas.

China’s National Meteorological Center also extended a yellow alert on Sunday for Typhoon Danas, which is expected to bring strong winds and heavy rain to parts of the country’s south.

MIL-OSI United Kingdom: Parents urged to read more to boost children’s life chances
Source: United Kingdom – Executive Government & Departments

Press release

Parents urged to read more to boost children’s life chances

Education Secretary urges parents to swap scrolling with reading as she launches a National Year of Reading for 2026 to boost kids’ literacy and life chances.
The Education Secretary is calling on parents to lead by example and make reading a daily habit to help reverse the decline in reading for pleasure, to help give kids the best start in life as part of the Plan for Change.

The call comes as the Department for Education and National Literacy Trust join forces to launch a National Year of Reading, starting in January 2026 to kick start a reading revolution. It will reverse the trend as just one in three aged 8 to 18 said they enjoyed reading in their free time in 2025.

Bringing together parents, schools, libraries, businesses and literacy experts, the campaign aims to foster a love of reading for pleasure in children and young people, ensuring all children get the best start in life.

Reading for pleasure isn’t just a hobby. It’s linked to a range of benefits including stronger writing skills, improved wellbeing and confidence, and even higher future earnings, with new data showing those proficient in reading and writing in primary school earn £65,000 more over their lifetime.

The government inherited a system which is holding too many children back from future success with over a quarter leaving primary school not meeting the expected standard in reading. This grows to 40% and 59% respectively for children from white-working class backgrounds and those with special educational needs.

The Year will build on the action already underway to drive high and rising standards in literacy including investing £27.7 million to support the teaching of reading and writing in primary school and targeted support for struggling readers in secondary school, as well as the ongoing curriculum and assessment review.

The campaign contributes to the government’s driving mission to break the link between a child’s background and what they go on to achieve and comes as the Education Secretary sets out her vision for ensuring every child gets the best possible start in life and starts school ready to learn including by boosting early literacy skills through the expansion of the government’s network of English Hubs.

Education Secretary, Bridget Phillipson said:

As someone whose love of reading was sparked in childhood, I know just how powerful books can be in shaping young lives.

Reading holds the keys to so much of children’s education, so the decline in reading for pleasure among young people should sound alarm bells loud and clear.

This can’t be just a government mission. It needs to be a national one. So, it’s time for all of us to play our part, put our phones down and pick up a book.

When parents take the time to read with their children early on, they lay the foundations for strong literacy skills, helping kids to be school ready. By making reading a daily habit, even just 10 minutes a day, we can help give kids the best start in life, as part of the Plan for Change.

To kick start the reading revolution this summer, the National Literacy Trust will distribute over 72,000 new books to children in areas with the highest rates of child poverty to support positive reading habits at home.

This comes during the Summer Reading Challenge to ensure more children have the opportunity to take part and build a love of reading over the break.

CEO of the National Literacy Trust, Jonathan Douglas, said:

At a time when we are witnessing the lowest levels of reading enjoyment and daily reading in a generation, we are delighted to be working with the government to deliver the National Year of Reading 2026 – a bold, society-wide campaign to reimagine how we understand, support and promote reading. Reading is the foundation of a successful life – the key to unlocking potential, strengthening social cohesion, enhancing wellbeing and boosting skills.

The National Year of Reading 2026 presents an opportunity to join forces across sectors and redefine reading as a powerful, contemporary activity for a generation. Working closely with schools, families, libraries, communities and partners across the country, we will make reading a shared national mission – because every child, no matter their background, deserves the best start in life and every adult deserves to get the best out of life.

The campaign will be packed full of exciting school and community events and activities supported by a dedicated website, backed by over 30 organisations so far including Premier League, Julia Rausing Trust, Arts Council England, the Very Group and a range of publishers.

Clare Sumner, Chief Policy and Social Impact Officer at the Premier League said:

The Premier League has worked alongside the National Literacy Trust for nearly 25 years, using the power of football to inspire children across England and Wales to develop a love of reading from a young age. Through our Premier League Primary Stars and Premier League Inspires education programmes we continue to support children and young people aged five to 18. Since 2017, we have provided over 350,000 free books to schools and a range of free curriculum-linked resources using children’s passion for football to engage them in learning. We look forward to working alongside the National Literacy Trust and the Department for Education to engage young people as part of the National Year of Reading.

CEO of the Publishers Association, Dan Conway, said:

Publishers are proud to be working with the government and partners to help transform lives through reading. A wide range of publishers of all sizes have contributed financially and the whole publishing industry is ready to get behind this campaign to ensure it sparks lasting behaviour change. This is a once in a generation opportunity for us to work with the government and make a huge difference for the benefit of society. Reading for enjoyment is the best indicator of a child’s future success and brings a huge number of benefits from supporting mental health, helping develop empathy and encouraging children to explore their interests independently.

Karen Napier MBE, CEO, The Reading Agency said:

The Reading Agency is delighted to be here in the No 10 Garden to champion this year’s Story Garden Summer Reading Challenge, which brings together the magic of nature and the joy of books. It is a wonderful moment to celebrate the power of stories to spark imaginations across the country.

We believe every child deserves access to the transformative power of reading, and that journey begins in the library this summer. Sign up for this free, fun way to keep children reading all summer long.

With 26 years of evidence behind it and with the National Year of Reading approaching, we look forward to everyone building on the 15 million reading journeys already started through this life-changing programme.

Simon Fourmy, Director of The Julia Rausing Trust, said:

The National Year of Reading 2026 is an exciting campaign that builds on the Trust’s longstanding support of literacy initiatives. It will encourage people across the UK to engage with books, bringing opportunities to develop essential skills and a life-long love of reading. The Julia Rausing Trust is proud to be an early funder, and we encourage others to join us in supporting this important campaign.

The Education Secretary will address businesses and leading literacy advocates tomorrow (7 July 2025) at No.10 to rally further support ahead of the National Year of Reading.

MIL-OSI: Bitcoin Solaris Enters Final Phase of Presale Ahead of Mobile Mining App Launch
Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

TALLINN, Estonia, July 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — When you hear “Bitcoin 2.0,” your first instinct might be to roll your eyes and think, “Here we go again.” But once you dig past the noise, Bitcoin Solaris (BTC-S) emerges with something most imitators lack: a powerful technical backbone, a wealth-building strategy for the everyday user, and a clear roadmap to actual utility. As altcoin chatter and speculative memecoins begin to fade, the spotlight is shifting toward something with more meat on the bone. That something is Bitcoin Solaris.

The Next Generation of Wealth Creation

What’s fueling the hype around Bitcoin Solaris is more than a name. This project is designed from the ground up to empower individuals to build real financial momentum. Instead of betting on token prices alone, BTC-S is offering an ecosystem where users can earn, transact, and contribute meaningfully.

Its mobile-first mining solution is already getting crypto circles buzzing. Through the exciting release of the upcoming Solaris Nova app, users will be able to mine BTC-S directly from their smartphones, bringing decentralized rewards into the palms of over 6 billion mobile users worldwide. Whether you’re in a coffee shop or on a bus, your device could be earning for you.

But mining is only part of the equation. Bitcoin Solaris doesn’t just reward presence, it rewards performance. The rewards distribution system accounts for:
- Contribution score based on device type and workload.
- Time-weighted bonuses that increase as users stay longer.
- Task complexity and overall network demand.
This isn’t just mining, it’s intelligent participation. The kind that turns casual users into long-term holders.

The Tech That Powers the Surge

Let’s talk power. Bitcoin Solaris runs on a unique hybrid consensus model that combines Proof-of-Work (PoW) with Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS), operating across a dual-layer architecture. It’s a bit like driving a racecar and piloting a drone at the same time.
- The base layer uses SHA-256 for PoW mining, ensuring security and compatibility with existing hardware.
- The Solaris Layer introduces DPoS with 21 rotating validators, providing scalability with 15-second blocks and dynamic block sizes.
- Cross-layer synchronization ensures that state changes and validator sets remain aligned.
- This dual system enables BTC-S to hit up to 100,000 transactions per second on the Solaris Layer with 2-second finality.
In short, this thing flies. And it does so without sacrificing decentralization or security. It even implements zero-knowledge proofs for added privacy, and a multi-layered defense against both 51% and long-range attacks.

It’s no surprise then that many crypto veterans are calling it one of the most technically complete projects of the year.

Audited and Backed by the Community

Bitcoin Solaris has passed two comprehensive smart contract audits. The first by Cyberscope and the second by Freshcoins, both of which confirmed the strength and integrity of BTC-S’s core codebase.

Community conversations on Telegram and X continue to grow daily. With over 13,650 unique users already onboarded and more pouring in, this is no quiet presale.

Crypto Show recently released a detailed review covering why so many enthusiasts are paying attention. From mobile mining to on-chain scalability, the breakdown highlights just how massive the upside potential really is.

Presale Momentum Builds Toward a $20 Launch

We’re now entering the final sprint. Bitcoin Solaris is in the last few hours of Phase 10 of its limited 90-day presale. Here’s what you need to know:
- Current price: $10
- Next phase: $11
- Launch price: $20
- Bonus: 6%
- Expected launch date: July 31, 2025
- Funds raised: Over $6 million
- User base: More than 13,650 participants
This is shaping up to be one of the fastest-growing and most explosive presales of 2025. With only around 4 weeks left, the clock is ticking. Investors are eyeing a 150% return right at launch, with many seeing this as a chance to ride the next big Bitcoin-like wave.

This Is the Mobile-First Wealth Engine Crypto Promised You

To receive your tokens on launch day, Bitcoin Solaris recommends using Trust Wallet or Metamask for seamless token delivery.

Real-World Utility Across Every Sector

BTC-S isn’t just fast, it’s functional. The ecosystem supports a wide range of smart contract applications written in Rust and built initially using Solana’s programming tools. These include:
- DeFi tools like lending, borrowing, and DEXs
- Enterprise utilities, including supply chain and tokenized real estate
- Gaming, NFTs, and play-to-earn environments
- IoT applications with secure micropayments
- Governance platforms with DAOs and on-chain voting
And that’s only scratching the surface. The infrastructure is built to scale across industries, use cases, and devices without bottlenecks.

If you’re curious about mining potential, check the estimated earnings through the Bitcoin Solaris mining calculator.

Final Verdict

Bitcoin Solaris is designed to deliver a scalable, accessible, and rewarding blockchain experience for real users. With strong technical foundations and a focus on usability, it offers a comprehensive solution for long-term participation and growth.

As the presale enters its final phases, early supporters have a unique opportunity to join a rapidly growing ecosystem before launch. The momentum is building—and this could be a defining moment for those seeking meaningful involvement in the next wave of blockchain innovation.

MIL-OSI Africa: Coups in west Africa have five things in common: knowing what they are is key to defending democracy

Source: The Conversation – Africa – By Salah Ben Hammou, Postdoctoral Research Associate, Rice University

August 2025 makes it five years since Malian soldiers ousted President Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta in a coup d’état. While the event reshaped Mali’s domestic politics, it also marked the beginning of a broader wave of military takeovers that swept parts of Africa between 2020 and 2023.

Soldiers have toppled governments in Niger, Burkina Faso (twice), Sudan, Chad, Guinea and Gabon.

The return of military coups shocked many observers. Once thought to be relics of the cold war, an “extinct” form of regime change, coups appeared to be making a comeback.

No new coups have taken place since Gabon’s in 2023, but the ripple effects are far from over. Gabon’s coup leader, Gen. Brice Oligui Nguema, formally assumed the presidency in May 2025. In doing so he broke promises that the military would step aside from politics. In Mali, the ruling junta dissolved all political parties to tighten its grip on power.

Across the affected countries, military rulers remain entrenched. Sudan, for its part, has descended into a devastating civil war following its coup in 2021.

Analysts often cite weak institutions, rising insecurity, and popular frustration with civilian governments to explain coups. While these factors play a role, they don’t capture the patterns we have observed.

I have studied and written on military coups for nearly a decade, especially this coup wave.

After a close analysis of the coup cascade, I conclude that the international community must move beyond the view of coups as isolated events.

Patterns suggest that the Sahelian coups are not isolated. Coup leaders are not only seizing power, they are learning from one another how to entrench authority, sidestep international pressure and craft narratives that legitimise their rule.

To help preserve democratic rule, the international community must confront five lessons revealed by the recent military takeovers.

Key lessons

Contagion: Just a month after Guinea’s military ousted President Alpha Condé, Sudan’s army disrupted its democratic transition. Three months later, Burkina Faso’s officers toppled President Roch Marc Christian Kaboré amid rising insecurity.

Each case had unique triggers, but the timing suggests more than coincidence.

Potential coup leaders watch closely, not just to see if a coup succeeds but what kinds of challenges arise as the event unfolds. When coups fail and plotters face harsh consequences, others are less likely to follow.

Whether coups spread depends on the perceived risks as much as on opportunity. But when coups succeed – especially if new leaders quickly take control and avoid immediate instability – they send a signal that can encourage others to act.

Civilian support matters: Civilian support for coups is real and observed.

Since the start of Africa’s recent coup wave, many commentators have highlighted the cheering crowds that often welcome soldiers, celebrating the fall of unpopular regimes. Civilian support is a common and often underestimated aspect of coup politics. It signals to potential coup plotters that military rule can win legitimacy and public backing.

This popular support also helps coup leaders strengthen their grip on power, shielding their regimes from both domestic opposition and international pressure. For example, following Niger’s 2023 coup, the putschists faced international condemnation and the threat of military intervention. In response, thousands of supporters gathered in the capital, Niamey, to rally around the coup leaders.

In Mali, protesters flooded the streets in 2020 to welcome the military’s ousting of President Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta. In Guinea, crowds rallied behind the junta after Alpha Condé was removed in 2021. And in Burkina Faso, both 2022 coups were met with widespread approval.

International responses: The international community’s response sends equally powerful signals. When those responses are weak, delayed, or inconsistent – such as the absence of meaningful sanctions, token aid suspensions, or symbolic suspensions from regional bodies – they can send the message that the illegal seizure of power carries few legitimate consequences.

International responses to recent coups have been mixed. Some, like Niger’s, triggered strong initial reactions, including sanctions and threats of military intervention.

But in Chad, Mahamat Déby’s 2021 takeover was effectively legitimised by key international actors, which portrayed it as a necessary step for stability following the battlefield death of his father, President Idriss Déby, at the hands of rebel forces.

In Guinea and Gabon, regional suspensions were largely symbolic, with little pressure to restore civilian rule. In Mali and Burkina Faso, transitional timelines have been extended repeatedly without much pushback.

The inconsistency signals to coup leaders that seizing power may provoke outrage, but rarely lasting consequences.

Coup leaders learn from one another: Contagion isn’t limited to the moment of takeover. Coup leaders also draw lessons from how others entrench themselves afterwards. They watch to see which tactics succeed in defusing opposition and extending their grip on power.

Entrenched military rule has become the norm across recent coup countries. On average, military rulers have remained in power for nearly 1,000 days since the start of the current wave. Before this wave, military leaders had retained power on average for 22 days since the year 2000.

In Chad, Mahamat Déby secured his grip through a contested 2024 election. Gabon’s Nguema followed in 2025, winning nearly 90% of the vote after constitutional changes cleared the path. In both cases, elections were used to re-brand military regimes as democratic, even as the role of the armed forces remains unchanged.

Connecting the dots

Coup governments across Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger have shifted away from western alliances and towards Russia, deepening military and economic ties. All three exited the Economic Community of West African States and formed the Alliance of Sahel States, denouncing regional pressure.

Aligning with Russia offers these regimes external support and a veneer of sovereignty, while legitimising authoritarianism as independence.

The final lesson is clear: when coups are treated as isolated rather than interconnected, it’s likely that more will follow. Would-be plotters are watching how citizens react, how the world responds, and how other coup leaders consolidate power.

When the message they receive is that coups are tolerable, survivable and even rewarded, the deterrent effect weakens.

Russia’s anti-aircraft systems downed 120 Ukrainian drones overnight, mostly in regions bordering Ukraine, the Russian Defence Ministry said on Sunday, reporting no damage.

More than three years into the war, Ukraine has increasingly been using drones to attack targets deep inside Russia.

The Defence Ministry said the drones that were intercepted overnight included 30 over the western Bryansk region, 29 in the Kursk region and 17 in Belgorod – all of which share a border with Ukraine.

Another 18 drones were downed over the Oryol region, which borders Kursk and has been hit by previous Ukrainian drone attacks targeting oil facilities.

Russia’s civil aviation authority, Rosaviatsiya, said it had lifted restrictions that were introduced overnight to ensure safety due to the drones at airports in St. Petersburg, Kaluga, Moscow and Nizhny Novgorod.
