Published: Mar 26 2025, 8 ameznews.inPresident Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday aimed at overhauling U.S. election processes, emphasizing the need for stricter voter identification and mail-in ballot regulations. The order mandates that voters provide proof of citizenship, such as a passport or birth certificate, and requires that mail-in ballots be cast and received by Election Day. Citing examples from countries like India and Germany, Trump criticized the U.S. for not enforcing adequate election protections, highlighting the reliance on self-attestation for citizenship and a lack of uniform ballot counting methods. The order also prohibits foreign nationals from donating to U.S. elections, aiming to prevent foreign interference. Trump asserted that ensuring free and fair elections is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the Republic, stating that the right of American citizens to have their votes counted without illegal dilution is vital. The order also directs federal agencies to assist states in identifying noncitizens on voter rolls.
Published: Mar 26 2025, 8 ameznews.inHundreds of Palestinians participated in a significant anti-Hamas protest in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, marking the largest demonstration against the group since the conflict with Israel reignited. The rally, which occurred following a week of renewed Israeli airstrikes, saw demonstrators chanting slogans like "out, out, out, Hamas out" and calling for an end to the war.

However, armed Hamas militants reportedly dispersed the crowd, leading to confrontations. The protests were organized via social media, reflecting growing discontent towards Hamas, which has ruled Gaza since 2007. As the humanitarian situation worsens amid ongoing violence, calls for Hamas to relinquish power have intensified, with rival factions urging the group to prioritize the welfare of Gazans. The conflict, which reignited after Hamas's October 7 attack on Israel, has resulted in significant casualties on both sides.
Published: Mar 26 2025, 8 ameznews.inLuigi Mangione, a 26-year-old accused of murdering health insurance CEO Brian Thompson, has requested a laptop to aid his legal defense while incarcerated. Thompson, a father of two and long-time employee of UnitedHealthcare, was allegedly shot dead outside a Manhattan hotel in December. In a court filing, Mangione's lawyers argued that the laptop would facilitate his review of over 15,000 pages of case materials, asserting that existing attorney meeting hours are insufficient for adequate preparation. The device would be restricted to prevent internet access and communications. Prosecutors, however, oppose the request, citing concerns about potential witness intimidation. Mangione, who has pleaded not guilty to state charges, faces a rare New York murder charge as an act of terrorism and a separate federal case that could lead to the death penalty. He was arrested shortly after Thompson's death and also faces gun possession charges in Pennsylvania.

The protests, which have seen nearly 1,500 arrests—including that of an AFP journalist—are viewed by opposition supporters as a serious affront to the rule of law. The government has responded with a heavy-handed crackdown, remanding seven journalists, including AFP photographer Yasin Akgul, in custody for allegedly participating in illegal rallies, a claim vehemently denied by journalists' rights groups. Erdogan dismissed the protests as "street terror," while demonstrators chanted anti-government slogans and expressed fears of police identification. The Republican People's Party (CHP) has called for a major rally on Saturday, aiming to galvanize support for Imamoglu and demand early elections amidst rising tensions and concerns over media freedom and human rights in Turkey.
Published: Mar 26 2025, 4 ameznews.inThe International Monetary Fund (IMF) announced on Tuesday that it has reached an agreement with Pakistan for a new $1.3 billion loan program, alongside a review of an existing bailout that could release an additional $1 billion. The 28-month deal aims to bolster Pakistan's efforts to address climate change challenges. Both the new loan and the review must receive approval from the IMF's executive board. Pakistan, which narrowly avoided default in 2023 amid a political crisis and economic downturn, previously secured a $7 billion bailout from the IMF, leading to some economic recovery, including reduced inflation and increased foreign reserves. However, the agreement comes with strict conditions, such as enhancing tax revenues and reducing power subsidies. The IMF noted that Pakistani authorities are committed to fiscal consolidation and reform efforts, with total disbursements under the existing program potentially reaching around $2 billion if approved.
Published: Mar 26 2025, 4 ameznews.inA New York judge has ordered US authorities to halt efforts to detain and deport Yunseo Chung, a 21-year-old South Korean student at Columbia University, amid President Donald Trump's crackdown on pro-Palestinian protests linked to the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Critics view the administration's actions as retaliation that could stifle free speech, while supporters argue they are essential for campus safety. Chung, who has been difficult for authorities to locate, filed a lawsuit claiming that immigration enforcement should not be used to punish those expressing unpopular political views. The judge's temporary restraining order prevents the government from detaining her. Meanwhile, several university professors have also filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, asserting that its policies unlawfully impede academic freedom. This legal battle coincides with Trump's decision to cut $400 million in federal funding to Columbia, citing inadequate protection for Jewish students amidst rising campus tensions.
