Trump returns to the White House
The countdown is over: on Monday, Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States. On his first day in office, the Republican leader declared a national emergency on the southern border, ended birthright citizenship and withdrew the U.S. from the WHO and Paris climate agreement. In total, Trump signed 41 executive orders, which experts say challenge the principles of the U.S. Constitution.
But it wasn't just this flurry of activity that made headlines. Melania Trump's inauguration outfit also raised eyebrows — specifically her wide-brimmed hat. The look quickly went viral, sparking broader discussion about what geopolitical message it may have been sending.
Meanwhile, in Gaza, the ceasefire agreement has facilitated the entry of essential aid. The cessation of fighting has also allowed Gazans like Mohamed al-Najjar to return home. In his case, however, all he found was rubble.
