WASHINGTON: The US Congress is moving to tighten oversight of Pentagon leadership decisions and limit unilateral military action against Iran, in a rare bipartisan effort that underscores renewed tensions over presidential war powers and civilian control of the military. On Thursday, the House Armed Services Committee adopted a bipartisan provision that would require the Pentagon to notify Congress within five days whenever a senior military officer is dismissed, along with a written explanation for the decision. Lawmakers say the measure is intended to improve transparency over personnel changes at the top levels of the armed forces, where congressional visibility has traditionally been limited. The move comes amid broader scrutiny on Capitol Hill of the Trump administration’s handling of military operations against Iran and recent changes in senior defence leadership. While Congress frequently debates executive war powers, bipartisan agreement on measures that directly constrain presidential military authority is uncommon in a sharply divided Washington. On Wednesday, the House of Representatives also adopted a War Powers resolution aimed at limiting the president’s ability to continue military operations against Iran without congressional authorisation. The measure reflects growing interest among lawmakers in reasserting legislative authority over sustained military action under the 1973 War Powers framework, which requires congressional consultation when operations extend beyond defined time limits. The latest resolution, introduced by Democratic Representative Pat Ryan, passed on Thursday by voice vote without objection, signalling unusual bipartisan consensus on an issue that has historically divided Congress along party lines. The push for greater oversight has been fuelled in part by reports that US War Secretary Pete Hegseth has dismissed roughly two dozen senior military officers since taking office. Some lawmakers in both parties have questioned both the scale of the removals and the absence of public explanations for the decisions. Scrutiny intensified further after the removal of Army Chief of Staff General Randy George, a highly regarded officer with more than four decades of service. Republican Congressman Steve Womack described Gen George as a “patriotic American,” reflecting unease within parts of the Republican caucus over the decision. While civilian control of the military is a core principle of US governance, lawmakers have raised concerns in hearings about whether recent personnel changes have been accompanied by sufficient transparency to Congress, particularly at a time of heightened military activity in the Middle East. The new reporting requirement still faces a long legislative path, needing approval by both chambers of Congress and the president’s signature. But its advancement at the committee level, alongside the War Powers resolution, signals a cautious but notable shift in congressional willingness to assert oversight over both military operations and senior Pentagon personnel decisions. Even so, Republican lawmakers remain broadly supportive of the administration’s defence posture, suggesting that the emerging push for oversight is more focused on process and transparency than on a fundamental break with the White House’s military policy.

Paths You Take is a show that finds beauty in images of alienation as Billy Dosanjh turns his lens on race, identity, empire – and the men who kept the furnaces glowing It was bitter in Walsall that winter of 1962-3 when snow turned the Black Country white. In After the Storm, Billy Dosanjh’s epic photographic reconstruction of one especially chilly night back then, an elderly Sikh man, recently arrived from the Punjab, stands under an old carriage lamp. He is, the shot suggests, seeing snow for the first time. “I thought it was quite a fitting note to get him gazing at the snow, looking a little bewildered,” says Dosanjh as we stroll around Paths You Walk, his gripping exhibition of photographs, films and installations at the New Art Gallery Walsall. At the back of the image, three furnace smoke stacks rise up in ghostly fashion, almost like the three crosses on Calvary have been relocated to Mordor. Continue reading...

Residents of Gaza, south Lebanon, northern Israel and Kuwait were all under fire this week despite United States-arranged ceasefires supposedly in force in their regions. Israeli airstrikes hit Gaza and Lebanon, with Israeli forces still actively deployed in both places. Hezbollah rockets struck northern Israel, and Iranian attacks hit Kuwait’s international airport. The continued violence prompted US President Donald Trump to comment on Wednesday that ceasefires in the Middle East involved “shooting in a more moderate manner” rather than a total halt in fighting. Three truces his administration has negotiated were meant to have stopped the warfare. But while major fighting has greatly reduced, munitions are still falling and people still dying. This is how the ceasefires — and ongoing fighting — are playing out: What’s happening with the ceasefire in Gaza? The US brokered a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas on October 10, 2025, ending major warfare. The ceasefire deal involved a halt to all fighting, Hamas releasing all its remaining hostages in Gaza, Israel freeing Palestinian prisoners, a phased Israeli withdrawal, ramped-up aid and the opening of a crossing into Egypt. A Trump plan to build out the ceasefire was meant to involve agreements on disarming Hamas, a new Gaza government without the group’s involvement, reconstruction of Gaza and a complete Israeli withdrawal. Palestinians clear debris at the site of an Israeli strike on a house whose residents were warned to evacuate before the attack, in Zawaida, central Gaza Strip on June 5, 2026. — AFP However, while all hostages were released, the amount of aid reaching Gaza has not substantially increased. Hamas has not agreed to disarm. Reconstruction has not begun, and Israel has expanded its control of the territory. Israeli airstrikes on Gaza have continued, killing more than 900 Palestinians since the truce, including nine on Thursday. Sporadic Palestinian attacks have killed four Israeli soldiers in Gaza. Why is there still warfare in Lebanon? After fighting in 2024, a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah was only partially implemented, with both sides accusing the other of violations. Open warfare began again in March after war against Iran erupted, with Hezbollah firing into Israel and Israeli forces seizing swathes of southern Lebanon and pounding other areas with airstrikes. Trump announced a 10-day ceasefire in Lebanon on April 16 after rare contacts between representatives of the Israeli and Lebanese governments. Intense fighting continued in the south, but Israel mainly refrained from striking Beirut. Black smoke billows at a strike scene following an Israeli strike on a car as seen from Nabatieh, Lebanon on June 5, 2026. — Reuters Since April 16, Israeli strikes have killed hundreds of people, bringing the total toll to more than 3,500 since March 2, according to Lebanese authorities, whose data does not distinguish between civilians and combatants. Israel says 26 of its soldiers and four civilians have been killed in Hezbollah attacks since March. Iran wants a ceasefire in Lebanon to be part of any deal to end its war with the United States and Israel and to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. On Wednesday, Trump announced that Lebanon and Israel had agreed to implement a new ceasefire contingent on Hezbollah leaving southern areas. Israel says it can still carry out military operations despite the ceasefire and Hezbollah has rejected the truce. Fighting continues. Will the US and Iran cement their ceasefire? The US and Israel attacked Iran on February 28, seeking to destroy its nuclear and ballistic missile programmes. Both countries voiced hope the ruling theocratic system would be overthrown. That followed a 12-day war last year in which Israel, later joined by the United States, struck many of Iran’s nuclear facilities and military leaders. Despite many of Iran’s senior figures being killed, it has managed to close off the Strait of Hormuz, throttling Gulf energy exports and hitting the global economy. The US announced a ceasefire with Iran in early April, with talks to follow on a lasting end to hostilities, the reopening of Hormuz, the end of a US blockade on Iranian ports and a pathway to negotiations on Iran’s nuclear programme. Iranians stand next to a symbol of a Kheibar missile as they take part during a rally in support of the country’s supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei and commemorate Eid al-Ghadir in Tehran on June 4, 2026. — AFP However, despite repeated rounds of indirect talks mediated by Pakistan and Qatar, there has been no fuller agreement yet. A deal would likely put off negotiation on the nuclear issue to a later stage. Meanwhile, the sides have repeatedly exchanged fire, with Iran also attacking Gulf states including Kuwait this week. Why haven’t the ceasefires been effective? All three deals have come unstuck in their first phase, with interim arrangements failing to move towards more lasting ceasefires. In each case, the combatants have been unwilling to accept painful concessions required to move beyond the first phase of transitional ceasefires. At times, they have turned to military action to try to advance goals they had to set aside when the truces were agreed or to test the boundaries of the agreements. “When there’s no movement and there’s no political horizon, it’s very difficult for a ceasefire to hold, because there’s no real incentive for the parties to that ceasefire to continue abiding by it if it doesn’t actually lead to any changes,” said Urban Coningham, research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute in London. The diminishing influence of international bodies like the United Nations and the growing assertiveness of regional powers have also made it harder for long-term agreements to stick, he said.

Funcionário verifica a temperatura dos passageiros no Aeroporto de Bunia, no leste da República Democrática do Congo, em 3 de junho de 2026. GLODY MURHABAZI / AFP A Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) e o Centro de Controle e Prevenção de Doenças da África, agência de saúde pública da União Africana, lançaram nesta sexta-feira (5) um plano conjunto de 518 milhões de dólares (R$ 2,6 bilhões) para combater o surto de ebola na África central. A agência da ONU e o Centro de Controle e Prevenção de Doenças da África anunciaram que o plano será implementado de junho a novembro, destaca a agência France Presse. O surto foi declarado em 15 de maio no nordeste da República Democrática do Congo (RDC), mas acredita-se que a rara cepa Bundibugyo do vírus ebola estava se espalhando sem ser detectada há algum tempo. Segundo os dados mais recentes da OMS, há 381 casos confirmados na RDC, incluindo 64 mortes. Agora no g1 O surto atingiu três províncias do país, com o epicentro em Ituri, onde, segundo a agência de saúde africana, estão concentrados 90% dos casos confirmados e 76% das mortes. Do outro lado da fronteira nordeste, em Uganda, foram confirmados 16 casos, incluindo uma morte. “O plano concentra-se em áreas-chave: coordenação de emergência, vigilância, testes laboratoriais, prevenção e controle de infecções, assistência clínica e mobilização comunitária”, disse o diretor-geral da OMS, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, em uma coletiva de imprensa. "É um plano prático. Ele descreve o que devemos fazer agora, juntos, para conter o surto atual e reduzir o risco de propagação", acrescentou. “É um plano com prazo definido, que abrange o período de junho a novembro deste ano”, explicou o funcionário, acrescentando que “tem um orçamento de 518 milhões de dólares”. O surto atual é maior do que os dois surtos anteriores de Bundibugyo, registados em 2007 e 2012, segundo a agência de saúde africana. Sem vacina aprovada para a cepa Bundibugyo, EUA retomam apoio à aliança de vacinação O secretário de Estado dos Estados Unidos, Marco Rubio, disse na última terça-feira (2) que o país voltará a se envolver com a aliança global de vacinas Gavi, em meio ao surto de Ebola em vários países africanos, de acordo com a agência Reuters. A Gavi é uma organização que reúne atores públicos e privados com o objetivo de acelerar os esforços de vacinação em todo o mundo. Rubio declarou ao Comitê de Relações Exteriores do Senado que a decisão de voltar a participar da aliança foi tomada há algumas semanas, depois que o governo Trump retirou o financiamento da Gavi no ano passado. A OMS falou nas últimas semanas sobre as dificuldades financeiras na resposta ao surto de Ebola. Segundo a representante da organização no Congo, Anne Ancia, a redução global de recursos para saúde teve impacto direto nas operações da organização no país. Ela citou a saída oficial dos Estados Unidos da OMS em janeiro e os cortes em financiamento internacional promovidos pelo governo do presidente Donald Trump. Apesar disso, a representante afirmou que a cooperação técnica entre os EUA e a OMS continua funcionando. O Escritório das Nações Unidas para Coordenação de Assuntos Humanitários (OCHA) informou ter recebido apenas 34% dos R$ 7,9 bilhões (US$ 1,4 bilhão) solicitados para ações humanitárias no Congo neste ano. Segundo o órgão, mais da metade dos recursos recebidos veio de Washington. Ainda não há vacina aprovada para a variante Bundibugyo do Ebola Ainda não existe vacina aprovada especificamente para a variante Bundibugyo, do vírus Ebola. Mas especialistas já avaliaram recentemente a possibilidade de usar a vacina Ervebo, da farmacêutica Merck, aprovada contra a cepa Zaire do Ebola e que apresentou sinais de proteção cruzada em estudos com animais. A decisão sobre eventual uso emergencial de vacinas cabe aos governos do Congo e de Uganda. A aliança internacional Gavi informou nas últimas semanas que já mantém 2 mil doses de vacinas contra Ebola no Congo caso os especialistas recomendem iniciar testes ou campanhas emergenciais. Especialistas afirmam que surtos causados pela variante Bundibugyo são incomuns e imprevisíveis, o que dificulta o desenvolvimento de vacinas específicas e protocolos rápidos de resposta. Além disso, pesquisadores alertam que a situação de segurança no leste do Congo — marcada por conflitos armados e dificuldades logísticas — pode dificultar tanto a contenção da doença quanto a realização de estudos clínicos. Empresa amplia produção de testes A BioFire Defense, ligada à empresa francesa bioMérieux, afirmou nas últimas semanas que está ampliando a produção de um teste aprovado pela agência reguladora dos Estados Unidos (FDA) capaz de detectar diferentes variantes do Ebola, incluindo a Bundibugyo. Segundo a companhia, o teste — chamado BioFire Global Fever Special Pathogens Panel — consegue identificar múltiplas espécies do vírus. “A BioFire Defense está em contato ativo com autoridades de saúde pública e parceiros internacionais para monitorar a evolução do surto e avaliar possíveis necessidades de apoio”, afirmou um porta-voz da empresa. Moderna já anunciou parceria para desenvolver vacina contra cepa Bundibugyo Nesta segunda-feira (1°), a farmacêutica Moderna anunciou uma parceria com a Coalizão para Inovações em Preparação para Epidemias (Cepi) para desenvolver uma vacina contra a cepa Bundibugyo do vírus ebola, responsável pelo surto em curso no leste da República Democrática do Congo (RDC). A Cepi é uma fundação internacional que financia projetos independentes de pesquisa de vacinas contra ameaças epidêmicas e pandêmicas. Ela destinará até US$ 50 milhões para financiar o desenvolvimento pré-clínico e os primeiros testes da candidata da Moderna. A organização também investirá em outras duas vacinas experimentais desenvolvidas por pesquisadores da Universidade de Oxford e da International AIDS Vaccine Initiative. A iniciativa ocorre enquanto a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) recomenda priorizar medicamentos e vacinas experimentais para prevenção e tratamento da doença. Segundo a OMS, o diagnóstico precoce e o acesso rápido aos cuidados de saúde aumentam as chances de recuperação. Nesta terça, a OMS informou que o número de casos suspeitos de ebola monitorados na África Central caiu nos últimos dias, após a exclusão de centenas de notificações que inicialmente eram investigadas como possíveis infecções. Em 31 de maio, a organização contabilizava 116 casos suspeitos na República Democrática do Congo (RDC), abaixo dos 906 registrados no fim da semana anterior. Segundo a OMS, a redução ocorreu porque muitos pacientes investigados tiveram outras doenças diagnosticadas ou apresentavam febre sem relação com o ebola.
