Israel ordered all of Gaza's electricity supply to be cut off on Sunday in an effort to pressure Hamas into releasing the remaining Israeli hostages held in the territory. Energy minister Eli Cohen's announcement came a week after Israel cut off all aid supplies to the territory, which has a population of more than two million people. The decision to cut electricity is expected to primarily affect the operation of desalination plants which are crucial for providing clean drinking water. The government says it has not ruled out cutting off water supplies. Israel wants Hamas to accept an extension of the first phase of their ceasefire but Hamas wants to start negotiations on the ceasefire's second phase, which would see the release of the remaining hostages from Gaza, withdrawal of Israeli forces and a permanent end to war.

In December 2024, the regulators, the Central Bank of Nigeria and the Nigerian Communications Commission, ordered banks to pay 85% of their ₦250 billion debt to telcos before year-end or face fines and service restrictions. The crackdown forced banks to act, but not quickly enough for MTN, which still classifies the unpaid sum as “receivables” pending settlement in 2025. MTN Nigeria, in 2024, reported an after-tax loss of ₦400.44 billion; the sharp decline stems from the naira’s depreciation, soaring tower lease costs, and mounting foreign currency obligations.

India and the UK will restart free trade talks nearly a year after negotiations were paused ahead of general elections in both countries. Jonathan Reynolds, the UK's business and trade secretary, is in Delhi, where he will meet his Indian counterpart Piyush Goyal to kick off the two-day discussions. Reynolds says it was a no-brainer to seek a trade deal with India, which was forecast to become the world's third-largest economy in a few years. The countries have held more than a dozen rounds of negotiations since 2022, but an agreement has remained out of reach. Sticking points include high tariffs in India on Scotch whiskey and demands to relax fees and visa rules for Indian students and professionals going to the UK.
