Jamaica received its first group of 22 third-country deportees from the United States on Tuesday, arriving at Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston as part of Trump's expanded deportation agreements. The deportees were transferred to an undisclosed location via bus, with Jamaica's government stating it will not accept individuals with criminal records and will facilitate their transfer to home countries or other destinations with support from the International Organization for Migration. Opposition leaders criticized the deal as a secret arrangement threatening national security, while legal challenges continue in the US over due process concerns and the potential deportation of immigrants to dangerous countries.

An Israeli air strike on a vehicle in Gaza City killed one person and wounded several others, emergency services told Al Jazeera, as Israeli attacks continue a year into the ceasefire. The strike hit the Tuffah neighbourhood in Gaza City’s northeast on Tuesday. In central Gaza, a four-year-old boy, Osama Ahmed Abed, died of wounds from an Israeli attack three weeks ago, bringing the Palestinian death toll in Gaza since October 7, 2023, to over 74,382. Gaza’s Civil Defence agency expressed deep concern over repeated forced displacement near the 'Yellow Line', citing massive explosions and indiscriminate gunfire that damaged hundreds of tents and weakened homes. It appealed for urgent intervention to halt the war against civilians. Al Jazeera’s maps show nearly two-thirds of Gaza is now under Israeli military control or access restrictions. In the occupied West Bank, Israeli attacks in Ramallah and el-Bireh wounded a child with live ammunition and left several Palestinians suffocating from tear gas. Journalists Khaled Mattawa and Firas Lutfi were wounded by a sound bomb and shrapnel, respectively. Israeli forces raided offices of several Palestinian NGOs and the courtyard of the Palestine Medical Complex. Human rights lawyer Muhammad Dahleh said Israel uses laws and military orders to shut down Palestinian rights groups, labeling them 'terrorist organisations based on privileged evidence' withheld from the groups and their lawyers. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a video on X that Israel is preparing for a scenario where Palestinian Authority forces turn their guns against Israel in the West Bank.

The diesel deal between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin has angered Ukraine, allowing Moscow to supply Russian diesel to global markets in response to Kyiv's attacks on Russian oil refineries. Trump also said it was time for Ukraine to get a new president. Experts link the move to US midterm elections, suggesting Trump seeks a scapegoat for high fuel prices tied to Iran tensions, while Ukraine considers working with European allies to block diesel shipments and awaits post-election shifts in US policy.
