According to the US president, the president has imposed a new blanket travel ban on 12 nations because he claims it is for national security.
Twelve countries are subject to a travel ban, with seven others imposed by US President Donald Trump.
And it’s not the first of its kind; Trump also issued a similar order in 2017 that targeted nations with a Muslim majority.
He claims that the most recent initiative is intended to safeguard national security, but its opponents claim that it is racist and unrelated to safety.
What is the real issue with the ban, and what might Trump gain from it?

Eid al-Adha, one of the biggest holidays in the Islamic calendar that honors sacrifice and submission to God, is observed by Muslims all over the world.
Despite the devil’s attempts to keep him from the act, the festival, which runs from June 6 through to June 9, honors the Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to follow God’s command to sacrifice his only son Ismail.
Ibrahim was three times before the devil, but the prophet reacted by pelving him with stones. God stayed in his father’s hand and spared his son by offering him a lamb to sacrifice in the process.
The slaughter of an animal, typically a goat, sheep, cow, bull, or camel, is traditionally observed as the “Feast of Sacrifice,” with the meat being distributed among neighbors, family members, and the less fortunate.
Adult Muslims observe the annual Hajj, a once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca, Saudi Arabia, at the same time as the event’s beginning.
At the Jamarat complex in Mina, near Mecca, pilgrims at Hajj take part in a symbolic “stoning of the devil” in memory of Ibrahim’s resistance to Satan.
Three concrete walls represent the three locations where the devil is said to have allegedly tried to deter Ibrahim from obeying God during the stoning ritual.
Pilgrims dumped their pebbles overnight from Muzdalifah, a hill with a significant spiritual significance just a few kilometers from Mecca.
An estimated 1.6 million pilgrims threw their stones at Mina’s concrete walls on Friday, and the devil was worshipped there.
When England take on Andorra, the 173rd-ranked team in the world, on Saturday, Thomas Tuchel urges supporters to be patient with the country and not “over expect.”
Tuchel’s third game as England manager will help him advance to the top of Group K with the World Cup qualifier at the RCDE Stadium in Barcelona.
After defeating Albania and Latvia in March, England is currently top, but Tuchel cautioned that it might take his side some time to dismantle an obstinate Andorra defense despite the differences.
“We will have to wait for us to start.” He said that it is up to us to maintain the tempo and to bring the energy to the pitch.
“We must bring the attacking energy to the pitch and do it relentlessly.
The players come off a long, tiring season, and then they can play the part that accounts for the majority of the game.
They may be demanding, but it’s what I think the group is all about: they’re happy to be here and to show.
Tuchel’s second England game is just their second, and they should be comfortable winning.
However, the 51-year-old made reference to Andorra’s match against Spain, where the European Champions were only 1-0 up at half-time, and urged supporters to stay calm.
“It’s also crucial to avoid expecting too much from us,” he added. Avoid overestimating what we anticipate, such as when we anticipate a clear outcome, the biggest chances and goals after 10, 20, and become impatient or frustrated with ourselves. Our patience is tested, Tuchel said.
“Andorra won their match 1-0 at half-time against Spain with a set-piece.”
You respect your opponent, your opponent’s quality, and your defensive organization because it qualifies for the World Cup.
You will then understand how challenging breaking down is. We anticipate a 5-4-1 formation with a goal-facing gap of 22 to 25 meters.
To avoid becoming frustrated too soon, take this into account, get the detail right, and get the energy level right.

Alima Gagigo, the star of Love Island 2025, has spoken out about the extraordinary moment she delivered her sister at home, and she is determined to change the villa.
Alima Gagigo, a star of Love Island 2025,
Love Island stunner Alima Gagigo is already making headlines – and not just for her villa debut. In a story that’s as jaw-dropping as it is heartwarming, the 23-year-old Londoner has revealed she once delivered her baby sister at home using a shoelace to tie the umbilical cord.
The incident happened in January 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic took hold. Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, ahead of the brand new series kicking off on Monday June 9, Alima shared the extraordinary moment that proved she’s not just reality TV-ready – she’s resilient under pressure, too.
“Yeah! It was back in January 2020. My sister’s a COVID baby,” she said. “It was just me and my mum at home, and the labour was 15 minutes. I had to tie the umbilical cord with a shoelace while on the phone with paramedics. It was scary but amazing looking back.”

Alima is a wealth management client services executive living in Glasgow. Now, the educated beauty is swapping emergency home births for bikinis and bombshell drama in the sun-soaked Love Island villa, and she’s determined to make a difference while doing it. Representation, she says, is front and centre.
“100%. Watching women like Whitney changed my life last year, Alima told us. If I can be that person this year, it might inspire others who might want to perform in the future. The importance of representation

Following in the footsteps of fan favorite love island star Whitney Adebayo, who appeared as a bombshell on the 10th series, Alima is entering the ITV2 spotlight. And it turns out Whitney already has feelings for her fellow Islander.
This is the first time I’ve heard it, in fact, and I didn’t know that! She responded when she learned about Whitney’s online support. I adored her journey and continued to follow her. I could relate a lot to another woman with dark skin. She might be able to help me because she is aware of what I might be going through.
Her family has been cheering her on from the sidelines, and the support from her circle has been overwhelming.
“Everyone is buzzing!” Family and friends are incredibly excited. When she dropped me at the airport, my mother was particularly excited, taking pictures and everything.
And while Love Island’s latest season is already making headlines – ITV bosses recently confirmed they won’t shy away from showing sex on screen if it happens – Alima admits she is “going to stay true to myself.”
I don’t really do that kind of thing on the outside, so I don’t think I’ll be doing much in the villa either.
Fans are already enthralled by that upbeat energy. Alima is focused on being authentic, claiming she is “not really anxious” about how her role on the show will be perceived as a Black woman.
She continued, “Seeing women like Whitney and Mimii [Ngulube] last year who were themselves and came across amazing gave me confidence.” Regardless of stereotypes, I want to be who I am fully.
She is also unafraid to laugh, especially when it comes to her biggest dating blunders.
“I wouldn’t know what to say if someone rapped or sang to me and it was bad,” I would be honest. If it’s good, that’s fair enough, but not awkward.
Alima is undoubtedly more than prepared to hit the villa as the 2025 series debuts with a new group of hopefuls and more drama than ever.
From Monday, June 9th, Love Island will be available on ITV2 and ITVX at 9pm every night.
