US Senate Approves $70bn for Trump Immigration Crackdown

The United States Senate has approved a $70 billion funding plan backing President Donald Trump’s hard-line immigration crackdown, advancing a major boost for federal enforcement agencies. The roughly $70bn bill will finance US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Border Patrol for three years, covering the remainder of Trump’s presidency until January 2029, if it is approved by the House of Representatives and signed into law. Senators voted along largely party lines after weeks of internal Republican wrangling and clashes with Democrats over the scope of enforcement powers and conditions on how the money will be spent. The proposal could ultimately authorise tens of billions of dollars more over several years when related enforcement operations are included. The measure comes out of a broader effort to restore full funding to the Department of Homeland Security, which has faced partial […]

World Cup Fans Barred from Bringing Water Bottles into Stadia

FIFA has banned fans from bringing refillable water bottles into World Cup 2026 venues in a last-minute policy change that will force thirsty supporters to pay for bottled water inside the stadiums. As recently as last month, FIFA's official stadium code of conduct included a clause which read: "For the avoidance of doubt, empty, transparent, reusable plastic bottles, up to 1 liter in capacity, may be brought into the Stadium." However, those guidelines have now been tweaked to explicitly ban refillable bottles. The updated stadium code of conduct now states: "For the avoidance of doubt, reusable water bottles may not be brought into the stadium." Other bottle types are similarly banned due to the potential risk of injury if thrown. In a statement to AFP, a FIFA spokesperson said the rule change was taken on safety grounds, noting that several […]

US Sanctions Iranian Buyers of Sensitive Military Technology

The United States has announced sanctions against an Iran-linked network accused of buying sensitive American military technology for Tehran’s defence sector in violation of US sanctions. According to US officials, the network “impersonated and defrauded” dozens of American technology companies out of millions of dollars’ worth of advanced equipment, including spectrum analyzers, network security devices, encryption hardware and software, non-linear junction detectors, and other security detection systems. The equipment was allegedly diverted to Iran’s Ministry of Defence and Armed Forces Logistics and affiliated entities. The State Department said the procurement ring used fake websites that mimicked real US firms and relied on intermediaries in Dubai and other jurisdictions to receive shipments before smuggling the technology into Iran. The network was led by Iran-based national Ali Majd Sepehr, who, through his company Sorena Hushmand Samaneh Company, is accused of creating false […]

Hegseth Reaffirms US Commitment to Asia

The United States remains fully committed to the Asia-Pacific region despite its involvement in the conflict with Iran, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said during the Shangri-La Dialogue security forum in Singapore. Speaking before regional defense leaders, Hegseth sought to reassure US allies that Washington’s military focus on global crises would not come at the expense of its commitments in Asia. He emphasized that the United States is capable of addressing multiple security challenges simultaneously, including maintaining stability in the Pacific while pursuing its objectives in the Middle East. “We can do two things at the same time,” Hegseth said, rejecting concerns that the Iran conflict could weaken US engagement with Asian partners. His remarks came after Japan’s Defense Minister, Shinjiro Koizumi, raised questions about America’s long-term commitment to the region, warning that some countries might attempt to exploit doubts […]

US-Iran Ceasefire Extension Remains Uncertain

Efforts to extend the ceasefire between the United States and Iran remain uncertain after a high-level meeting chaired by President Donald Trump ended without a final decision on the way forward. The meeting, held Friday in the White House Situation Room, brought together senior US officials to review a proposed framework that could prolong the current truce and open the door to broader negotiations. According to US officials, Washington and Tehran had reached a preliminary memorandum of understanding on Thursday. The proposal reportedly includes a 60-day extension of the ceasefire and the launch of discussions regarding the future of Iran’s nuclear programme. However, the agreement still requires approval from both President Trump and Iran’s leadership. Following the meeting, no official decision was announced, leaving uncertainty over whether the framework will move forward. Trump reiterated several conditions he considers non-negotiable. He […]

Pakistan Seeks Breakthrough in US–Iran Peace Talks

According to Iranian media, Iran’s Foreign Minister met Pakistan’s Interior Minister on Friday May 22 to discuss fresh proposals aimed at ending the US–Israeli war and easing tensions with Washington. The talks focused on possible compromises over Iran’s nuclear programme and security arrangements in the Strait of Hormuz. Officials say Pakistan has been shuttling messages between Washington and Tehran for weeks, after earlier rounds of talks in Islamabad ended without agreement. Islamabad believes a second phase of negotiations could unlock a memorandum that would halt fighting and open the door to broader de‑escalation. Despite these efforts, the United States and Iran remain divided over key issues, especially the size of Iran’s uranium stockpile, verification measures and who controls shipping and security in the Strait of Hormuz, a vital route for global oil and gas supplies. Pakistan’s mediation is built around […]

Rubio Calls Cuba a Security Threat

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has described Cuba as a “national security threat” to the United States, warning that the chances of reaching a peaceful agreement with the Cuban government remain low.

Rubio also accused Cuba of supporting terrorism in the region, claims strongly rejected by Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla. Cuban authorities described the accusations as false and politically motivated, insisting the island has never […]

The United States has indicted former Cuban President Raul Castro over the 1996 downing of two civilian planes flown by the Miami based exile group Brothers to the Rescue near Cuba.

The US leader said on Sunday that “the clock is ticking,” urging Iranian authorities to move quickly toward an agreement or face serious consequences.
