In New York’s Queens district, an armed attack on a nightclub left 11 people injured late last night. While two of the injured received treatment at the scene, the others were hospitalized. Police have not released an official statement, and the area around the nightclub remains under security control.

In a separate incident on New Year’s Eve, 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar drove his pickup truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street, New Orleans, and later opened fire. The death toll from this attack has risen to 15. Jabbar, who was killed in a police shootout, was a former US military member.

The FBI revealed that Jabbar may not have acted alone and discovered homemade explosives in his vehicle and another location. A state of emergency has been declared in Louisiana following the attack.

Srebrenica Genocide Victims Laid to Rest on 30th Anniversary

Seven newly identified victims of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide were buried at the Potocari Memorial Cemetery in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the 30th anniversary of the massacre. The genocide, recognized by international courts, claimed over 8,300 Muslim lives during the Bosnian War.

The ceremony drew leaders and officials from across the region and Europe, including Turkish Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş, Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, and French and NATO representatives.

Bosnian official Denis Bećirović emphasized the years of propaganda and planning that led to the genocide, while French President Emmanuel Macron warned that denialism has no place in EU-aspiring nations. NATO’s Mark Rutte called it a lasting tragedy linking the Netherlands and Bosnia.

Sirens marked the remembrance across cities, and symbolic tributes—including a silent jump from Mostar Bridge and the release of lilies—honored the victims. The newly buried include victims aged between 17 and 67.
