      Jacinda Ardern’s resignation prompts new questions over Trudeau’s future

      Jacinda Ardern’s surprise resignation last week has prompted fresh questions over the future of Justin Trudeau, another liberal prime minister with celebrity-like status whose popularity has waned in recent months. Ardern has won praise – and criticism – for her decision to step down ahead of an October election as the Labour party readies to fight for a third term amid dwindling electoral prospects. Her decision has prompted speculation whether Ardern’s blunt assessment, that she didn’t have “enough gas in the tank” to fight another election, could influence how Canada’s Trudeau views his own legacy. “[He’s] getting awfully close to his Ardern moment, that run-away-or-run-again point at which he can still bow out and leave his voters, his cabinet and his caucus clapping for more,” wrote a…

      King Abdullah meets Israeli PM Netanyahu in surprise Jordan visit – royal court

      Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made a surprise trip to Jordan on Tuesday for talks with King Abdullah, who the royal court said underlined the need for Israel to respect the status quo of the Al Aqsa mosque. Far-right Israeli national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir toured the Al Aqsa mosque compound, which Jews revere as the Temple Mount, under heavy security this month. The visit angered the Palestinians and caused an outcry among Arab states. The compound is Islam’s third holiest site after Mecca and Medina, and Judaism’s most sacred site. Abdullah told Netanyahu, who took office last month, that Israel should respect the “historic and legal status quo in the Holy Aqsa mosque and not violate it,” the royal…

      Paranoid Putin installs air defence system to protect his favourite luxury palace

      A Russian Pantsir-S1 air defence system has been installed close to one of Putin’s private dachas near the Russian resort of Lake Valdai between Moscow and St Petersburg. Increased military hardware being installed in the area is thought to be a sign that the Kremlin is worried that resilient Ukraine could strike at the site between Moscow and St Petersburg. Russian opposition website Agentstvo said: “These air defence systems protect Putin personally and his family from a possible Ukrainian strike.” Pantsirs designed to take down helicopters and planes as well as missiles and drones. The system was recently spotted springing up across Moscow on the roofs of government and military buildings. It comes as Vladimir Putin’s troops continue to suffer heavy losses in…

      Hundreds of seats left empty on London-Paris Eurostar trains due to Brexit passport checks

      Thousands of seats are deliberately going unsold on Eurostar trains every day as the cross-Channel train operator struggles with post-Brexit passport controls. Eurostar has revealed that the first wave of morning trains outbound from London and inbound from continental Europe are capped at 550 passengers – leaving 350 seats, or 39 per cent of capacity, empty. Since Brexit, border checks at London St Pancras International and the continental European stations have become much more time-consuming. As the UK government requested in the withdrawal agreement, British travellers must have their passports stamped by EU frontier officials in both directions. European visitors are also subject to more stringent checks at UK Border Force posts at the Eurostar stations on the continent. Facilities at the stations…

      North Korea behind $100m crypto theft, FBI says

      California-based Harmony said in June it had been the target of a cyberattack that stole $100m worth of digital assets. North Korean hackers were behind the theft of $100m worth of digital assets from a US crypto firm last year, according to United States law enforcement. The North Korean hacking groups Lazarus Group and APT38 carried out the cyber heist on crypto firm Harmony last June, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) said in a statement on Monday. North Korean cyber actors earlier this month used privacy protocol Railgun to launder more than $60m worth of Ethereum stolen during the heist, a portion of which was sent to several virtual asset service providers and converted to Bitcoin, the FBI said.…
