Recent days have seen more international problems. Conflicts are happening in different parts of the world. This makes global stability weak and creates difficult situations.
In Syria, British and French planes attacked an Islamic State arms store. This happened on Saturday. The target was in a mountain area near Palmyra. It held weapons for the group. The attack used special bombs. Defence Secretary John Healey said it shows UK leadership. He said Britain stands with allies against terrorism.
At the same time, problems between the US and Iran have grown. US President Donald Trump warned Iran. He said the US might act if Iran used force on protesters. These protests are in their second week. They are because Iran's economy is doing badly. Iran's Foreign Minister called the warning "dangerous." Iran's leader said "rioters" were controlled by enemies.
In Yemen, the civil war is worse. Groups fighting the Houthis are divided. Saudi Arabia wants southern groups to talk. This is because Saudi Arabia and the UAE have different ideas. They now support different groups. This division makes the crisis worse. It also makes peace harder to find.
Conflict also happened in Ukraine. A missile hit Kharkiv on Friday. A building was destroyed and people died. Ukraine says Russia attacked. Russia denies this. The attack was before important peace talks. Ukraine's President Zelensky said the attack shows how Russians treat people.
