They do not specify what those might be. Sanctions could be one possibility. A bigger step would be to recognise Palestine as an independent state.France has been considering joining the 148 other states that have done so at a conference it is co-chairing with Saudi Arabia in New York in early June. The UK has also talked about Palestinian recognition with the French.

Israel, pushing back hard, has told them they would be presenting Hamas with a victory. But the tone of the statement made by the French, the Canadians and the British suggests that Israel is losing its ability to pressurise them.The US Supreme Court has said it will allow the Trump administration to terminate deportation protections for some 350,000 Venezuelans in the US.The ruling lifts a hold that was placed by a California judge that kept Temporary Protected Status (TPS) in place for Venezuelans whose status would have expired last month.

Temporary Protected Status allows people to live and work in the US legally if their home countries are deemed unsafe due to things like countries experiencing wars, natural disasters or other "extraordinary and temporary" conditions.The ruling marks a win for US President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly tried to use the Supreme Court to enact immigration policy decisions.

Venezuelans living in the US were first granted TPS in 2021.

The secretary of Homeland Security at the time, Alejandro N Mayorkas, said the Biden administration had taken the decision "due to extraordinary and temporary conditions in Venezuela that prevent nationals from returning safely".He has also been charged with murder of foreign officials, causing death with a firearm, and discharging a firearm in a crime of violence.

According to an affidavit, the suspect flew from Chicago on Tuesday and declared a gun legally bought in Illinois in his checked luggage.In an interview with detectives, the affidavit said, he referenced a 2024 incident in which a man set himself on fire outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington DC, expressing admiration for the act and calling the man a "martyr" for his protest over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Authorities say the investigation is ongoing, and more charges could be brought against him as it develops.Interim DC attorney Jeanine Pirro said it was too early to say whether prosecutors will seek the death penalty, but that this was a "death penalty eligible case".
