Quick Glance: Harry and Meghan Face Conundrum Over Balmoral Invitation

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could find themselves in a complicated situation, according to an expert, if King Charles invites them to join the Royal Family at Balmoral.

It is expected that King Charles will extend an invitation to Harry and Meghan to visit the Scottish retreat this year, as it is customary for the monarch to invite family members during the holiday season.

Royal expert and author Tom Quinn suggests that an invitation to the retreat could present a 'difficult' situation for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

King Charles has reportedly extended an olive branch to Prince Harry and Meghan by 'hinting' at a visit to Balmoral this summer to improve relationships within the Royal family.

Quick Glance: Israel artist calls for Gaza ceasefire

The representative of Israel at the international art fair is calling for an immediate ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza.

Ruth Patir’s video installation called (M)otherland was scheduled to open on Saturday at Israel’s national pavilion at the international art show but will remain closed for now.

Patir stated on her website that the artist and curators are showing solidarity with the families of the hostages and the large community in Israel calling for change, rather than canceling themselves or the exhibition.

It is believed that there are still individuals in Gaza, including 129 captives taken during the attacks led by Hamas on Israel on October 7, with 34 of them presumed dead.

Quick Glance: US, UK, Australia Consider Japan's Cooperation in AUKUS Security Pact

The USA, UK, and Australia are considering collaborating with Japan under the AUKUS security pact to counter China's power in the Indo-Pacific region.

Consultations on future cooperation between AUKUS partners and other nations, including Japan, are set to commence this year.

Obstacles remain for Japan's potential involvement in advanced AUKUS projects, such as the need for improved cyber defenses and stricter rules for safeguarding secrets, despite its strong defense partnerships with the three countries.

The AUKUS security pact, formed in 2021, aims to push back against China's influence, with one pillar focusing on delivering advanced technologies and capabilities in areas like quantum computing and artificial intelligence.

Woods finished his opening rounds with a 1-over-par and an even-par, securing him comfortably above the cut line.

His score was well above the projected cut, marking his 24th consecutive cut, a tournament record.

As one of 27 players still on the course, Woods had a grueling day, mentioning fatigue after playing 23 holes.
