Today we discuss:
• The Palestinian-American whose home in the occupied West Bank has been besieged by Israeli settlers for over a week travels to his property to join family members who have been defending it. The standoff, in the village of Qusra, has seen groups of settlers surround several Palestinian houses and prevent residents from leaving. Israeli terrorists have killed 87 Palestinians this year.
• Trump’s approval rating falls to its lowest level ever, to 33%.
Just 33% of respondents in the four-day survey said they approved of Trump’s performance in the White House. 80% of Americans – including 87% of Democrats and 71% of Republicans – think U.S. involvement in Iran “will go on for an extended period of time,” the Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Only one in five Americans – and half of Republicans – think the war has been worth it, the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Voters prefer Democrats over Republicans as better stewards of the economy for the first time in about a decade.
• Russia has accused the UK of “escalation” and threatened “consequences” following reports that British-made drones were used by Ukraine in long-range strikes in recent days.
