Court annuls Istanbul congress of Turkey's main opposition party and dismisses officials
ISTANBUL — A court annulled the Istanbul provincial congress of Turkey's main opposition party on Tuesday, citing alleged procedural irregularities in a decision critics view as an escalating campaign to weaken the party.The ruling against the Republican People's Party (CHP), led to the dismissal of Istanbul chair Özgür Çelik and other provincial administrators.An interim committee was appointed to oversee the party's Istanbul branch.The decision followed a legal challenge seeking to nullify the CHP's Istanbul congress on 8 October, claiming procedural violations.It comes just weeks before a separate court in Ankara is expected to rule on a similar case targeting the CHP's main congress in 2023, which elected Özgür Özel as party leader.A ruling against the CHP...

Europe to US: Coalition of the willing is 'ready' on security guarantees for Ukraine
PARIS — Technical work on the security guarantees for Ukraine is advanced enough that allies now only need confirmation of US support, the Elysée said on Tuesday ahead of a meeting of the so-called 'Coalition of the Willing' later this week.According to the French presidential palace, most of the technical work which started following the first meeting of the coalition in mid-February to ensure Ukraine can deter further aggression attempts following a ceasefire, is now almost completed.This includes work on how to consolidate the Ukrainian armed forces over the long term so that it remains in a position of strength, as well as the deployment of an international reassurance force in no-contact areas across the country.The key message that will be conveyed on Thursday is that,...

Israel starts calling up reservists as it continues military offensive in Gaza City
JERUSALEM — Israel began mobilizing tens of thousands of reservists on Tuesday as part of its plan to widen its offensive in Gaza City, which has sparked opposition domestically and condemnation abroad.The call-up, announced last month, comes as ground and air forces press forward and pursue more targets in northern and central Gaza, striking parts of Zeitoun and Shijaiyah, two western neighbourhoods of Gaza City that the IDF has repeatedly moved into during the 23-month war against Hamas militants.Zeitoun, once Gaza City’s largest neighbourhood, has been transformed over the past month, with streets being emptied and buildings reduced to rubble as it becomes what the IDF called last week a "dangerous combat zone".Gaza City is Hamas' political and military stronghold and,...

Trump's use of National Guard in Los Angeles was illegal, judge rules
LOS ANGELES — A federal judge in California has ruled that the way President Donald Trump deployed the National Guard to Los Angeles this summer was illegal.The ruling comes as Trump seeks to use National Guard troops in order to crack down on crime in other US cities and support immigration enforcement.US District Judge Charles Breyer said Trump violated the Posse Comitatus Act, which limits the power of the federal government to use military force for domestic matters.White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said that "a rogue judge is trying to usurp the authority of the Commander-in-Chief to protect American cities from violence and destruction".The ruling is on hold until 12 September.The Trump administration will likely appeal against the ruling."The President is committed...
