US Bombs Yemen As Israel Blocks Missile Fired At Tel Aviv

The Israeli military reports intercepting a missile launched from Yemen on Sunday, coinciding with intensified United States military operations targeting Houthi-controlled sites in the country.

Air raid sirens sounded across multiple Israeli areas after the missile launch, which Israeli forces claim was intercepted before crossing into their territory. The Iran-supported Houthi rebels have consistently fired missiles toward Israel since the Gaza war began on October 7, 2023. The group has also targeted shipping vessels in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, stating these actions show solidarity with Palestinians.

The Houthis had temporarily suspended their campaign during the Gaza ceasefire, which ended when Israel resumed bombardment on March 18. On Thursday, Israel announced it had intercepted two missiles from Yemen. The Houthi forces, who have not commented on Sunday’s alleged attack, previously claimed launching two missiles, including a hypersonic projectile, targeting Ben Gurion airport and a military target near Tel Aviv.

The United States initiated air strikes against Yemen on March 15, citing protection of global shipping routes, with dozens reportedly killed. Strikes continued overnight into Saturday, reportedly killing at least one person. The US military acknowledged bombing a Houthi-controlled military site in central Sanaa.

Yemen’s Al-Masriah TV reported American strikes south of Sanaa and in northern provinces Saada and Jawf on Friday. A Health Ministry spokesperson confirmed seven people were wounded, including two children. The Houthis stated that Thursday’s US strikes killed two people and wounded two others.

In retaliation, the Houthis claimed to have targeted “warships in the Red Sea, including the American aircraft carrier [USS Harry S] Truman.” The United States has consistently attributed responsibility for Houthi attacks to Iran.

Trump Strikes Iran After Israeli Attack Kills 600 As Western Media Bias Exposed

On June 22, American warplanes entered Iranian airspace and dropped 14 bombs following Israeli military action that resulted in 600 Iranian casualties. US President Donald Trump, accompanied by his vice president and two secretaries, announced that "Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace." The attack occurred during Israel's 12-day military operation against Iran. Western media coverage during this period focused primarily on Israelis in bunkers rather than Iranian civilian casualties, including children affected by the conflict. This pattern extends to Gaza coverage over the past 20 months. Official counts report over 55,000 deaths, with some estimates suggesting higher numbers. Most hospitals and schools in Gaza have been damaged or destroyed during the conflict. Human rights organizations Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have declared Israel's actions constitute genocide, though most Western media outlets avoid using this […]

Funeral Home Owner Gets 20 Years For Hoarding Bodies And Fake Ashes Scam

A Colorado funeral home owner received a 20-year prison sentence for storing 191 decomposing bodies at his facility while providing families with fake ashes and defrauding federal COVID-19 relief programs. Jon Hallford, owner of Return to Nature Funeral Home, was sentenced Friday by US District Judge Nina Wang, who exceeded the prosecution's 15-year recommendation due to the extraordinary nature of his crimes and the emotional harm inflicted on families. "This is not an ordinary fraud case," Judge Wang stated while imposing the maximum 240-month sentence. The grim discovery occurred in 2023 when investigators responded to reports of an "abhorrent smell" emanating from the dilapidated building in Penrose, located 160 kilometers south of Denver. Inside the insect-infested facility, they found human remains stacked on top of each other, with some rooms so filled with bodies that entry was impossible. FBI agents […]

Trump Predicts Gaza Ceasefire Deal Within One Week

President Donald Trump expressed optimism about reaching a Gaza ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, stating he believes an agreement could be achieved within a week. Speaking to reporters Friday, Trump made the unexpected announcement after discussing the situation with unspecified parties involved in ceasefire efforts. "I think it's close. I just spoke to some of the people involved," Trump said. "We think within the next week we're going to get a ceasefire," he added, without identifying his contacts. Al Jazeera's Nour Odeh, reporting from Amman, noted that while Trump's comments would be "welcome news" to Gaza's population, she cautioned that "no negotiations at this moment happening anywhere in the region" are currently taking place. Odeh explained that ceasefire discussions have increased significantly following the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire. However, she noted Israel's reluctance to discuss ending the war, with Netanyahu potentially facing […]

Iran Holds Massive State Funeral For 60 War Dead As Trump Threatens More Strikes

Coffins draped in Iranian flags and bearing portraits of the deceased were displayed near Tehran's Enghelab Square, surrounded by large crowds of mourners.

Trump Claims Victory After Iran Strike And Multiple Foreign Policy Wins

Donald Trump began the week expressing frustration over Iran and Israel's fragile ceasefire situation, but concluded with celebratory White House appearances following several political victories. The president appeared triumphant during an extended news conference, highlighting his accomplishments across multiple fronts. Iran Strike and Ceasefire Achievement The US military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities on June 21 preceded Trump's announcement of a "complete and total" ceasefire in what he called the "12-day war" between Israel and Iran. Initial developments proved challenging. Iran launched ballistic missiles at a US airbase in Qatar shortly before the ceasefire announcement, raising concerns about regional escalation. Both sides faced accusations of ceasefire violations, prompting Trump's heated response to reporters. Trump acknowledged he barely persuaded Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to halt additional attacks on Iran. However, the ceasefire ultimately maintained stability, allowing Trump to claim success […]

Trump Strikes Iran Nuclear Sites After Two Day Deadline

Donald Trump has launched military strikes against three Iranian nuclear facilities, marking a significant escalation in Middle East tensions just weeks after returning to the White House with promises of peace. The president announced the operation on social media before delivering a televised address from the White House, declaring the strikes a "spectacular success." Trump expressed hope the action would create conditions for lasting peace by eliminating Iran's nuclear weapon potential. Iran reported only minor damage to its heavily fortified Fordo nuclear site, though the full extent of damage remains unclear. Speaking alongside Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Trump warned Iran of future attacks that would be "far worse and a lot easier" if they refused to abandon their nuclear program. He indicated "many targets left" and promised continued action with […]

US Cuts Tariffs on UK Cars and Planesโ€”But Steel Industry Left Behind

Tariff reductions for UK automotive and aerospace sectors have taken effect following Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's completion of negotiations for relief from US import duties. UK car manufacturers exporting to America now face a reduced 10% tariff quota, down from the previous 27.5%, while aerospace companies will see a 10% levy eliminated completely. Sir Keir described the agreement as a "historic trade deal" with the US, secured after President Donald Trump implemented import taxes as part of his "liberation day" tariffs affecting countries globally. The Prime Minister and US President finalized the sectoral agreement during the G7 summit, though steel tariffs remain at 25% instead of being reduced to zero as initially negotiated. Discussions continue regarding securing 0% tariffs on core UK steel products destined for US markets. Trump's executive order indicates the US seeks guarantees regarding UK steel […]
