On January 20, 2026, in Incheon, South Korea, a view of the Rock-carved Seated Bodhisattva at Bomunsa Temple on Ganghwa Island, South Korea, is observed. Dancheong, ornate designs painted in striking reds, blues, greens, and golds, not only enhance the aesthetic beauty of the sacred space but also symbolize protection and spiritual harmony. The craftsmanship reflects centuries of cultural heritage, offering visitors a glimpse into Korea's enduring artistic and religious traditions. Bomunsa Temple, located on Seokmodo Island in South Korea, traces its origins back to the year 635 during the reign of Queen Seondeok of the Silla Dynasty. According to historical accounts, the temple is founded by the monk Hyejeong, who, while practicing asceticism on Mount Geumgang, is said to witness a divine manifestation of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. Moved by the vision, he journeys to Ganghwa Island and establishes the temple. Legend holds that the temple's history begins when a sacred stone is retrieved from the sea and enshrined as a representation of the Buddha. This act of reverence marks the beginning of Bomunsa's spiritual legacy, which continues to draw pilgrims and visitors to this day.

A protester holds a placard reading ''no chah no mollah'' during a rally in support of the Iranian people in Paris, France, on January 17, 2026. Protests in Iran subside after a crackdown that kills thousands under an internet blackout, monitors say on January 16, a week after the start of the largest demonstrations in years challenging the country's theocratic system. Protests sparked by economic grievances start with a shutdown in the Tehran bazaar on December 28, 2025, but turn into a mass movement demanding the removal of the clerical system that has ruled Iran since the 1979 revolution.

Demonstrators hold up a sign featuring an AI-generated symbolic image inspired by the Tunisian revolution, depicting Tunisian President Kais Saied holding a press card during a popular march that brings together thousands of Tunisians, including opposition supporters, human rights activists, civil society members, and families of detained opposition figures in Tunis, Tunisia, on January 10, 2026. According to organizers, the march takes place under the slogans ''Injustice Heralds Revolution'' and ''Revolutionary Mandate Against Tyranny'' and aims for the restoration of the spirit of the Tunisian Revolution and the defense of freedom and dignity, asserting that the revolution belongs to the people. Participants denounce an escalating crackdown on freedoms and rights, describing it as an injustice under President Kais Saied's rule. The march comes in response to President Kais Saied's claim that a pro-Saied rally on the revolution's 15th anniversary in December 2025 reflects a popular mandate, a claim that critics challenge due to limited and orchestrated turnout.
