We went to the #Chicago apartment block targeted in a massive raid on suspected illegal immigrants. The operation was trumpeted by the Trump administration - in a glossy Hollywood-style video. One US-born resident told us his hands were zip-tied by officers. www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

What’s the possible impact of the US government shutdown? With the BBC Verify team here in DC, l've been looking into who and what will be affected.

BBC Verify looked into some of the startling claims made by President Trump during his speech at the United Nations. Some were simply not true.

How many wars has President Trump really ended? (Short answer - not as many as the 7 he claims) www.bbc.com/news/article...

President Trump says he’ll meet President Putin in Alaska next Friday

Great to be in #washingtondc for a while - as we bring BBC Verify to the USA. Our first piece here - Trump's Friday deadline to Putin to agree to a ceasefire in Ukraine.

100+ NGOs have called for the EU to suspend its treaty with Israel - because of Gaza. But the EU is divided - and the economic weight of this bloc of 450 million people is not translating to a coherent or unified voice. With @brunoboelpaep.bsky.social www.bbc.com/news/article...

Latest on the Israel- Iran war: www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn...

It's now a 3rd month of Israel blocking medicine & food from entering Gaza. Israel's said to want to use private companies to give out supplies in the future - something the UN calls "a deliberate attempt to weaponise aid". We've been looking at the aid situation in Gaza:

How the scale of Myanmar's loss is clearer one week after the quake: www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

We’ve been talking to earthquake survivors on the ground in Myanmar… and combining their accounts with new satellite images. We’re trying build a picture of the damage in some of the worst-hit places we know of. #BBCVerify www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Live from @BBCNews with some thoughts on the Burmese military - and how they operate in a parallel universe. I lived in and reported from #Myanmar for 2 years - and this huge earthquake has exposed, once again, how the junta can be totally divorced from reality & outside world.

Incredible rescues. But - ultimately - huge loss after the #Myanmar earthquake. More pain for a people who have suffered so much. Producer: @thanyarat.bsky.social 🎥: Natalie Thomas

We've been looking at how - and why - the #SouthKorea wildfires have spread so quickly. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

We’ve been looking at two key factors that made the Pulse nightclub fire in #NorthMacedonia so deadly.

400+ people have been killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. Israel's military says it's hitting "terror targets". More than half the dead are reported to be women & children. BBC Verify has been assessing footage of the strikes www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Some of the great characters we met in #Copenhagen. Many people told us they feel unsettled, upset and betrayed by #Trump ‘s demand to take #Greenland. Listen here: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w... #Denmark #TheGlobalStory

In Copenhagen, we met Afghanistan army veteran Søren who was awarded the US's Bronze Star Medal for his service alongside American troops. Now he's one of many Danes who feel betrayed, insulted & angry at Trump's desire to take Greenland. www.bbc.com/news/article...

650 people were feared drowned when the ‘Adriana' sank. Greek coastguards always claimed migrants onboard said - freely - they wanted to reach Italy. But new recording shows Greek operator ordered skipper of boat to say: "We do not want to go to Greece." www.bbc.com/news/article...

Swedish school shooting victims were seven women and three men www.bbc.com/news/article...

Reporting from Sweden's worst-ever mass shooting. The gunman killed 10 people at a college where lots of students were immigrants learning Swedish. Police haven't given a motive, but many told us they fear there was a strong racial element to the attack.

Today’s hostage handover in Gaza was highly choreographed by Hamas. Big contrast with last weekend.

Our full BBC report from northern #France, where officials told us they wanted UK immigration checks at Calais scrapped - because "hypocritical" Britain is failing to deal with the small boats crisis Producers:@kostaskallergis.bsky.social & @leontinegls.bsky.social soundcloud.com/user-4563265...
