Hamas dissolves its civilian governing body in Gaza after 20 years

Hamas has announced the dissolution of its civilian governing body in Gaza after nearly 20 years of administration. The group has controlled the territory since 2007, when it seized power following parliamentary elections. The decision comes amid the ongoing armed conflict with Israel and could have significant implications for the future governance of Gaza.

Will Hamas dissolving its civilian body open the way for peaceful governance in Gaza?

The schemes exploit inattention and continue to ensnare victims. Security experts warn the public to verify any such messages before clicking links or sending money.

Do banks and telecoms do enough to block these scams?

Polish MPC unlikely to hike rates – focus shifts back to further cuts

Just a month ago markets were discussing the possibility of Poland's first interest rate hike in years. That scenario now appears unlikely, and attention has shifted back to when the next rate cuts might come. The National Bank of Poland's July inflation projection is expected to provide key signals for the Monetary Policy Council's future decisions.

Should the NBP cut interest rates in the coming months?

Commentator: Świątek needs a break from tennis, not more training

Sports commentator Dawid Góra argues in an opinion piece that Iga Świątek's current problems are best addressed not with more tennis but with a step back — time for herself, her passions and a fresh perspective. He also suggests it is worth examining whether her coaching team is working as it should.

XRP stalls at $1.14 as breakout attempt lacks volume confirmation

XRP is hovering near $1.14 after buyers defended session lows and pushed the price back toward resistance, but subdued trading volume has left traders waiting for confirmation of a break above the $1.13–$1.14 range. Without stronger volume, analysts say the attempted breakout remains unconfirmed.

Cottage cheese causing stomach pain? Yoghurt has a different nutritional profile and may suit you better

Cottage cheese and yoghurt look and taste similar but differ in nutritional profile. Yoghurt contains live bacterial cultures beneficial for gut health and is better tolerated by those sensitive to lactose, while cottage cheese provides more protein per serving. The better choice depends on individual dietary needs and digestive tolerance.

Is yoghurt a healthier choice than cottage cheese for most people?

The author uses the German peasant uprising as a mirror for contemporary political tensions. The review appears in the "Półka Ekonomiczna" series.

Hotel Gołębiewski in Pobierowo: a giant resort that divides visitors

Hotel Gołębiewski in Pobierowo is one of Poland's largest holiday resorts and provokes sharply divided opinions. One visitor described it as a "monolith" — vast in scale but defined by a mass-tourism atmosphere. The complex draws large numbers of families with children thanks to its extensive entertainment facilities all under one roof.

Are large all-in-one resort hotels like Gołębiewski a good way to holiday?

With retro automotive revivals and electric vans both on the rise, the idea feels more plausible than ever. The project is not linked to any manufacturer and remains a designer's personal vision.

Poland's tax authority has confirmed that cash wedding gifts do not require tax payment or reporting to the tax office, provided the total amount received from a single person over five years stays within the threshold for their tax group. The rules vary by degree of kinship between the giver and recipient. The clarification comes as the wedding season is in full swing.
