- Kenya is the tech hub of East Africa and has built a thriving digital economy. But alongside that growth has come an expanding surveillance apparatus. After antigovernment protests in 2024, President William Ruto’s administration is accused of intensifying its monitoring of civilians.
Critics say the government is trying to quell online dissent before it reaches the streets.
Nicholas Muirhead reports on how surveillance tools designed to combat “terrorism” are being turned on Kenya’s citizens.

- Description
- For decades, much of the United States media adopted Washington’s framing of US conflicts in the Middle East. But the US-Israel war against Iran is defying that trend. US news outlets are increasingly challenging President Donald Trump on his declarations of victory and absence of a clear strategy.
Meanwhile, Iran’s military remains operational, Tehran retains control of the Strait of Hormuz and fears are mounting that the disruption to global energy supplies will drag on.

- Andrea Dessi, an assistant professor in international relations and global politics at the American University of Rome, says the US-Iran negotiations are still very “fluid” and not close to a breakthrough.
“But at the same time, I think there’s some optimism in the sense that there is movement, there is some softening of positions both on the side of Iran … but also with regards to the United States side,” Dessi told Al Jazeera.
“We see some movement away from … certain red lines that the United States has been discussing for many decades or many years, the ballistic missiles, the proxies, and there’s more of a focus on trying to separate issues,” he said.
Despite the movement, Dessi explained, “we are by no means out of the woods yet”.
“We need to keep focus and hope that the backchannels and the mediators are continuing to push in the correct direction.”

- The China–Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), a flagship project of China’s Belt and Road Initiative, stretches nearly 3,000 kilometres, linking China’s Xinjiang region to Pakistan’s deep-sea port of Gwadar.
Billed as a “gateway to shared prosperity,” the multi-billion dollar project aims to transform Pakistan’s infrastructure, energy capacity and industrial base while offering China faster access to markets in the Middle East and Africa.
But the corridor passes through Pakistan’s restive Balochistan region, where separatist groups accuse the state of exploitation and have carried out repeated attacks on construction sites and Chinese personnel.
Despite ongoing security challenges, Islamabad and Beijing are pushing ahead with the next phase of development focused on industrialisation, agriculture and technology, with hopes of significant long-term economic gains.

- The third expansion project of Masjid Al Haram is by far the biggest and most ambitious in the mosque’s history.
The project began in 2011 under former King Abdullah and was later accelerated under King Salman.
Saudi authorities say the total area of the mosque now exceeds 1.2 million square metres — enough space to accommodate more than 2.5 million worshippers at any given time.
The expansion was designed to ease congestion during peak seasons, especially Hajj and Ramadan, when millions of Muslims from around the world gather in Mecca.
Beyond the massive structures and new prayer areas, the project also includes upgraded security systems, improved crowd management, advanced safety equipment and the integration of modern technologies including artificial intelligence.
Officials say the aim is to improve comfort, accessibility and safety for pilgrims visiting Islam’s holiest site.

- Yemen's ancient Sidr tree, which can live up to 400 years, holds deep cultural significance — from children gathering its sweet berries to beekeepers producing some of the world's most prized honey. Traditional beekeepers such as Ismail Mufadhal relocate their hives seasonally, following the Sidr blossom cycle across Yemen's mountains and plains. The tree also draws those seeking alternative remedies, with some visiting bee farms for apitherapy to treat ailments such as joint pain.
Al Jazeera's Yousef Mawry reports from Sanaa, Yemen.

- Technology is reshaping the annual Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia, where nearly two million Muslims gather each year in one of the world's most complex logistical operations. From AI-assisted crowd control and surveillance to digital applications such as Nusuk, pilgrims can now access services in real time. Special road coatings across 70,000 square metres of holy sites reduce surface temperatures by up to 15 degrees Celsius. Hundreds of thousands of security personnel and volunteers continue to work alongside these systems to keep pilgrims safe.

- President Donald Trump was able to purge his most vocal critics within the Republican Party, as Americans voted for the congressional candidates who will run in November’s midterm elections.
One of the most prominent politicians to be unseated was Representative Thomas Massie, who pushed for the release of the Epstein files.
The Democratic Party partially released a report about performance that noted “a persistent inability or unwillingness to listen to all voters”.
Host Steve Clemons asks former Trump aide Hogan Gidley, and Matt Duss – former adviser to Senator Bernie Sanders – about the challenges facing both parties.

- Description
- A new Ebola outbreak centred in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo has been rated "very high" risk by the World Health Organization, with the Bundibugyo strain — for which there are no approved vaccines or treatments — recording a mortality rate of 30–50 percent. The outbreak, first confirmed on 15 May in Ituri province, has spread to South Kivu, North Kivu and neighbouring Uganda, which has reported its first three locally transmitted cases. Conflict across eastern DRC is hampering containment efforts, while community distrust has complicated the response. The WHO and Africa CDC have launched a six-month, $319m response plan covering surveillance, treatment and preparedness across ten high-risk countries.

- The Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) has claimed responsibility for a bomb attack on a passenger train near Quetta, in southwest Pakistan, killing at least 30 people and injuring more than 100.
A vehicle laden with explosives was detonated as the shuttle train, carrying security forces personnel travelling home for Eid, passed nearby, causing two carriages to overturn and catch fire.
Several surrounding buildings and vehicles were also severely damaged.
A medical emergency has been declared at local hospitals, and authorities warn the death toll may rise. Balochistan is a mineral-rich province central to Pakistan's economic relationship with China, and the BLA has carried out a series of deadly attacks in the region.
