Briefings

A week of global unrest spans Israel, France, Spain, and the UK, marked by vigils, protests, and political upheaval. In Israel, former hostages demand accountability for October 7th failures amid stalled Gaza peace talks. In France, mass demonstrations over housing crises and underfunding have drawn hundreds of thousands of protesters ahead of a presidential election. In Spain, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez uses the housing crisis as a central electoral gamble, with protests intensifying after a pensioner's eviction sparked the movement. In the UK, questions persist over a suspected Iranian plot targeting US aircraft at RAF Fairford, following the withdrawal of American B-1 bombers due to immediate threats.

Key points

• In Israel, former hostages and mourners are demanding accountability for the failures of October 7th, with questions growing over the stalled path to peace in Gaza.
• In France, mass demonstrations over chronic underfunding and poor conditions have drawn students, unions, and hundreds of thousands of protesters into the streets just months ahead of a presidential election.
