US pauses Hormuz shipping plan amid tensions

Donald Trump has announced a temporary halt to “Project Freedom,” a US-led initiative designed to help commercial ships navigate the blocked Strait of Hormuz. The plan, unveiled just days earlier, aimed to assist vessels stranded after Iran restricted access to the vital shipping route, insisting that passage required its approval. Trump described the effort as a humanitarian measure to support countries and companies caught in the disruption. However, escalating tensions quickly complicated the operation. Iranian forces reportedly targeted US naval assets, while US forces responded by engaging small boats seen as threats to commercial shipping. These incidents raised concerns about a potential breakdown of the fragile ceasefire between the two sides. Two days after launching the initiative, Trump said the US would pause the operation briefly to allow space for negotiations with Iran. He added that progress was being made […]

Iran warns US forces over Trump’s Hormuz escort plan

Iran has warned that its forces will attack United States troops if they attempt to enter or operate in the Strait of Hormuz under President Donald Trump’s new ship escort plan. The warning raises the risk of a direct clash in one of the world’s most strategic waterways, even as a fragile ceasefire remains in place. Trump announced that the US will begin escorting foreign commercial ships trapped by the blockade in Hormuz, in a mission he called Project Freedom. He described the plan as a humanitarian effort to help vessels that have been stranded for weeks, with crews running low on food and other supplies. In response, Iran’s military central command said any safe passage through the strait must be coordinated with its forces under all circumstances. Major General Ali Abdollahi, speaking through state media, declared that any foreign […]

US Troop Cut in Germany Sparks NATO Concerns

Senior Republican lawmakers in the United States have criticised a Pentagon decision to withdraw 5,000 troops from Germany, warning that it could weaken NATO’s deterrence posture and send an unintended signal to Russia. Senator Roger Wicker and Representative Mike Rogers, who lead the Senate and House Armed Services Committees, said the troops should instead be repositioned further east in Europe rather than withdrawn entirely. They argued that maintaining a strong forward military presence remains essential as European allies continue increasing defence spending. A Pentagon spokesperson, Sean Parnell, said the decision followed a comprehensive review of operational needs and current conditions on the ground. He added that the withdrawal is expected to take place over the next six to twelve months. President Donald Trump indicated that additional troop reductions could follow, though he did not provide specifics. The United States currently […]

Rudy Giuliani Hospitalised in Critical Condition

Rudy Giuliani, a longtime ally of Donald Trump, is in hospital in a “stable but critical condition,” according to his spokesman Ted Goodman. Goodman shared the update in a social media post on Sunday but did not provide further details about Giuliani’s current medical situation. Shortly afterward, Trump also confirmed the news, describing Giuliani as a “true warrior” and praising his record as mayor of New York City. He also referenced Giuliani’s role in challenging the outcome of the 2020 US presidential election. Giuliani rose to national prominence during his time as mayor, particularly for his leadership following the September 11 attacks, earning him the nickname “America’s Mayor.” In recent years, he remained a central figure in US politics, especially after the 2020 election, when he publicly supported claims that the vote had been improperly conducted. Those claims were widely […]

US Plans to Cut Troops in Germany Sparks NATO Concern

Senior Republican lawmakers in the United States have raised concerns over a Pentagon plan to reduce the American military presence in Germany, warning that the move could weaken NATO deterrence and send an encouraging signal to Russia. The planned reduction involves the withdrawal of around 5,000 US troops currently stationed in Germany, which hosts the largest American military deployment in Europe. The decision was confirmed by Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell, who said it followed a detailed review of operational needs and conditions on the ground. Two senior lawmakers, Senator Roger Wicker and Representative Mike Rogers, who lead the Senate and House Armed Services Committees respectively, argued that the troops should not be withdrawn from Europe entirely. Instead, they suggested that forces should be repositioned further east to strengthen deterrence against potential threats. In a joint statement, they warned that reducing […]

Iran activates air defences as Trump faces US war deadline

Iran has put its air defence systems on high alert as President Donald Trump approaches a key legal deadline to secure congressional approval for his ongoing military campaign against the country. The move comes amid continued US and Israeli airstrikes on Iranian targets and Tehran’s warnings of stronger retaliation if attacks escalate. Under the US War Powers Resolution, Trump must obtain authorisation from Congress by May 1 to continue large scale military operations beyond 60 days. Legal experts note that without such approval, he is supposed to begin winding down deployments, although previous presidents have often contested or ignored this requirement. Iranian officials have dismissed Trump’s threats to inflict heavy damage on the country’s civilian infrastructure if it does not reopen the Strait of Hormuz to full shipping traffic. Tehran says it will not bow to ultimatums and has vowed […]

Justice Dept releases footage of Trump shooting suspect

The United States Department of Justice has released surveillance footage of the man accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump at a high profile event in Washington. The nearly six minute video features several clips of the suspect, 31 year old Cole Tomas Allen, walking through corridors and a fitness centre inside the Washington Hilton hotel. A dramatic part of the footage shows Allen carrying what appears to be a long barrelled gun as he charges through a security checkpoint. He is seen sprinting past uniformed police officers and Secret Service agents in suits before shots are fired. Prosecutors say Allen was armed with a shotgun, a handgun and knives when he tried to storm the venue of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where Trump was attending. Federal officials described the incident as a clear assassination attempt on the […]

Iran defies Trump’s blockade as oil prices soar

Iran has vowed to resist a prolonged United States naval blockade and keep its economy functioning, even as global oil prices surge to multi year highs. The warning comes after President Donald Trump signalled that the US led operation to restrict shipping to and from Iranian ports could last for months. Iranian officials say the blockade will fail and have accused Washington of waging economic warfare and collective punishment against the country. Tehran says it is finding alternative routes and partners to sell its crude, including ship to ship transfers and deals that avoid dollar payments. Oil markets have reacted nervously to the standoff. Brent crude has climbed well above 110 dollars a barrel, while US benchmark West Texas Intermediate has traded above 100 dollars, levels last seen several years ago. Analysts say prices have been driven higher by the […]

US reiterates recognition of Morocco’s sovereignty over Sahara

The United States has again reaffirmed its recognition of Morocco’s sovereignty over the Sahara and its support for Rabat’s autonomy plan for the disputed territory. Washington says genuine autonomy under Moroccan authority remains the only realistic basis for a lasting political solution. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio restated the position during talks in Washington with Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita. According to official readouts, Rubio said the US stance, first announced under President Donald Trump in 2020, has not changed. Trump had recognised Morocco’s claim to Western Sahara as part of a deal in which Rabat agreed to normalise relations with Israel. In a message to King Mohammed VI during his second term, he reiterated US recognition of Moroccan sovereignty and described the autonomy proposal as serious, credible and realistic. American officials have repeatedly stressed that they do not […]

Trump to feature his picture in new US passports

The United States will begin issuing a limited number of new passports that include a picture of President Donald Trump inside the booklet, officials have confirmed. The design is part of a special edition created to mark the 250th anniversary of the US Declaration of Independence in July. According to the State Department, the commemorative passports will show Trump’s official portrait on an inside page alongside imagery of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. His signature will also appear in gold under the image as part of the America250 branding. Officials say between 25,000 and 30,000 of the special passports will be printed. They will be available to eligible US citizens who apply through the passport office in Washington DC once distribution begins ahead of the July 4 celebrations. The move makes Trump the first sitting US president to […]
