Premier League to ban Israel and Palastine flags in stadiums
Israel and Palestine flags will not be allowed into stadiums for Premier League matches from this weekend. In a bid to ensure top-flight grounds are not used by supporters of either side of the escalating Middle East conflict to voice their protests, the Star of David flag and the flag of Palestine will be banned. Last week, the British Government encouraged sports bodies in the UK to pay respects to the victims of the recent violence in Israel and the Gaza strip. It is understood the UK's Department for Culture, Media and Sport had written to various governing bodies suggesting they pay tribute in an appropriate manner at forthcoming events. While the UK Government has expressed its steadfast support of Israel, the Football Association opted not to light up the Wembley arch with the colours of the Israel flag for England's friendly against Australia last Friday. England players wore black armbands during that match and a period of silence was held before kick-off to respect "the innocent victims of the devastating events in Israel and Palestine".

Beijing 'determined to deteriorate Hong Kong's freedom', activist Nathan Law says
In early July, the Hong Kong authorities issued arrest warrants for Law and seven other exiled activists, offering a bounty of HK$1 million Hong Kong dollars (roughly $127,735) for each of them.
