Hossein Salami, the commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), was reportedly killed early Friday during Israeli airstrikes, marking the highest-ranking Iranian official to fall in the recent attacks. At 65 years old, Salami was known for his uncompromising and aggressive stance toward Iran’s adversaries, particularly Israel and the United States. Just a month before his death, he had issued a stark warning that Tehran would “open the gates of hell” if attacked by either nation. Israel carried out extensive strikes targeting Iranian nuclear sites, ballistic missile factories, and military leaders, despite warnings from then-US President Donald Trump against…

Israel’s Bold Airstrikes Expose Tehran’s Vulnerabilities and Highlight Military Dominance Despite lacking the element of surprise, Israel launched a sweeping series of airstrikes inside Iran on Thursday, underscoring its military dominance and exposing significant weaknesses in Iran’s defensive capabilities. In contrast to previous years—when Israel appeared to calibrate its responses to Iran to avoid full-scale escalation—this latest operation marked a more aggressive shift in strategy. Analysts noted that Israel had “taken the gloves off,” opting for a broader and more forceful display of power. According to Israeli officials, dozens of fighter jets participated in the initial phase of a larger…

Trump Blocks California EV Mandates, Revokes Emissions Standards Waiver President Donald Trump signed three resolutions on Thursday aimed at dismantling California’s authority to mandate electric vehicle (EV) sales and impose its own tailpipe emissions standards. The move marks a significant rollback of state-led climate initiatives, particularly California’s 2024 decision to phase out new gasoline-powered vehicle sales by 2035. The resolutions also revoke California’s federal Clean Air Act waiver, which had allowed the state to enforce stricter emissions rules than the national standard. That waiver had been the foundation for 17 other states—representing about 30% of the U.S. vehicle market—to adopt…

Japan has raised strong concerns after a close encounter between one of its patrol aircraft and a Chinese fighter jet over the Pacific Ocean, amid rising regional tensions linked to China’s growing military activity. The incident occurred when a Chinese J-15 fighter jet took off from the aircraft carrier Shandong and flew within approximately 45 meters of a Japanese Self-Defense Force (SDF) plane. Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary, Yoshimasa Hayashi, called the incident dangerous and urged China to take steps to prevent any future recurrence. The near miss happened over international waters last weekend. According to Japan’s defense ministry, the Chinese…

Pacers Surge Late to Seize 2-1 Lead Over Thunder in NBA Finals The Indiana Pacers didn’t need one of their trademark late-game rallies to win Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Instead, they flipped the script — and the series — by controlling the closing moments, putting the once heavily favored Oklahoma City Thunder on their heels. Behind a dominant fourth-quarter performance in front of a raucous home crowd in Indianapolis, the Pacers clamped down defensively and capitalized on Thunder miscues to earn a 116-107 victory and take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. Historically, that margin is significant:…

President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that he plans to send formal letters to key trading partners within the next one to two weeks, outlining unilateral tariff rates. “At some point, we’re just going to send the letters out,” Trump said during an appearance at the Kennedy Center in Washington. “And I think you understand what that means — this is the deal, take it or leave it.” His remarks come shortly after he imposed steep new tariffs that shook global markets, followed by a temporary suspension of the harshest measures. That pause is set to expire on July 9. However,…
