UN chief addresses Security Council

Antonio Guterres has begun his address to the Security Council during a session to discuss the resolution for an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire” in Gaza. This is what he has said so far: “We have already seen the spillover in the occupied West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Yemen. There is clearly, in my view, a serious risk of aggravating existing threats to the maintenance of international peace and security”. “The risk of collapse of the humanitarian system is fundamentally linked to the complete lack of safety and security for our staff in Gaza and with the nature and intensity of military operations which are severely limiting access to people in […]

Stock market news: Stocks slide, oil hits 5-month lows December 6 | Yahoo Finance

US stocks slipped on Wednesday amid fresh signs of economic malaise, as oil prices hit lows not seen since June and investors looked to data that signaled more cooling in the labor market. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) fell about 0.4% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) dropped more nearly 0.2% or about 70 points. The Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) shed roughly 0.6%. Wednesday brought fresh signs of softening in the labor market, as the ADP gauge on private payrolls missed expectations, finding that 103,000 jobs were added in November. That came after Tuesday’s soft reading on jobs openings bolstered optimism for a Fed pivot to cutting interest rates. Markets are […]

Denial & escalation: US sanctions follow Israeli settler violence in West Bank

The US State Department announced on Tuesday it is issuing travel bans on dozens of Israelis and some Palestinians for taking part in violence in the Occupied West Bank. Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank deny daily harassment, dismissing US concerns. Contrary to their claims, documented attacks have doubled since October 7, prompting travel bans for some settlers. While downplayed by settlers, the Biden administration’s move is seen as symbolic. NGOs supporting settlements may face scrutiny. Despite on-the-ground denials, escalating violence raises questions about further US intervention. Al Jazeera’s Patty Culhane reports.
