Ministers condemned masked anti-migrant protesters who blocked access to the Port of Dover for several hours, disrupting traffic on key roads and causing delays. The demonstrators, dressed in black and wearing balaclavas, shouted 'stop the boats' before dispersing by midday. Local politicians questioned police preparedness. In diplomatic news, US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, having secured a three-day pause on strikes against each other's capitals. They were due to travel to Kiev with a fresh, concrete proposal, though skepticism remained over substantial progress given deep disagreements on territory. At Reform UK's annual conference, Nigel Farage delivered a defiant closing speech after a gathering dominated by questions over party finances. He denied wrongdoing around foreign donations following an undercover report, which had led two senior aides to step down. Treasury spokesperson Robert Jenrick defended the leadership, while the party announced a policy to raise the personal tax allowance to £15,000.
Sky News tracked down FIFA president Gianni Infantino at the under-20 women's World Cup in Katowice, following his abandoned plan to sell a stake in the World Cup. He avoided answering questions about his future or the controversy, while UEFA and other confederations seek to oust him. US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee described violent Israeli settlers as terrorists during a visit to a West Bank village populated by Palestinian Americans. He refused to use the term West Bank, preferring 'Judea and Samaria', and villagers expressed ongoing fear and skepticism. Elsewhere, dramatic footage showed rescues in Nepal after flash flooding, with hundreds of workers missing from hydropower projects. US Central Command said it struck three Iranian crude oil carriers in the Strait of Hormuz. Two pilots were killed in a crash at a Greek air show, the King and Queen attended the Braemar gathering, and 600,000 young children in England are being targeted with teeth-cleaning lessons amid rising tooth decay.

by a group of people with no placards, no banners, no indication of an organised group, just simply people in quasi paramilitary gear with balaclavas on, standing in front of their vehicles. And that was extremely unnerving at best and extremely scary at worst. By midday, the crowd began to disperse.

and says he's not optimistic that a peace deal can be reached. There's no indication that the principal problem to any peace deal, any agreement on a ceasefire has made any change.

since the men's World Cup in North America that ended in July.

Most of the people here are American citizens. Angry that their ambassador has backed settlers, played down violence and even refused to call this the West Bank. You've called it Judea Samaria. Yes.

Israeli outposts like this on the edge of Termasaya are widely considered illegal. But they're becoming ever more common.
