US Conducts Airstrikes on Iran’s Fordow, Natanz Nuclear Facilities
The United States has launched airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites , using powerful bunker-busting bombs on locations such as Fordow and Natanz , which had previously suffered damage confirmed by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) .
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised President Donald Trump for what he described as a historic move:
“This action changes the course of history in our fight against Iran’s nuclear ambitions.”
The attacks triggered immediate retaliation from Iran, which launched missiles toward Israel , injuring at least 16 people .
Expert: Attack Violates International Law, Risks More Conflict
Analysts have condemned the U.S. strike as a breach of international law and a setback for diplomacy.
They argue that the use of force undermines ongoing efforts to negotiate limits on Iran’s nuclear program.
“This sets back dialogue and increases the risk of escalation,” one expert said.
There are growing fears that the attack could push Iran toward pursuing nuclear weapons , repeating past patterns seen in other global conflicts.
Some also say targeting enrichment sites like Fordow and Natanz will not stop Iran long-term but may provoke more aggressive actions.
Trump Defends Move Amid Domestic Criticism
President Donald Trump defended the military action despite backlash from Democratic lawmakers , who called it an overreach and a dangerous shift from his earlier foreign policy promises.
Trump’s administration says the operation was a success and sent a strong message about nuclear proliferation .
In a surprising strategic move, the U.S. deployed B2 bombers to Guam , seen by some analysts as a way to avoid friction with European allies while enforcing a stronger ‘America First’ stance.
The Pentagon is expected to give a full briefing on the operation soon.
However, questions remain about its long-term impact.

Adenta Building Collapse Linked to Illegal Construction and Ignored Stop-Work Orders
A preliminary investigation into the collapse of a three-storey building at Adenta New Site in the Greater Accra Region has revealed that the project was carried out without the required regulatory approvals and in defiance of official stop-work directives issued by local authorities.

Rescue teams are continuing efforts to locate and extract individuals believed to be trapped beneath the rubble of a collapsed building in Accra’s North Industrial Area following a structural failure that has left several people injured. According to Alex King Nartey of the Ghana National Fire Service's communications team, three people have so far been rescued from the scene and are currently receiving medical treatment. However, emergency responders fear that at least three more individuals may still be trapped under the debris.

U.S. lifts Strait of Hormuz blockade as U.S. and Iran sign deal to halt war
The U.S. Central Command has confirmed that the naval blockade over the Strait of Hormuz has officially been lifted as a result of the ceasefire agreement reached between the United States and Iran. The U.S. declared the cessation of its naval blockade affecting maritime movement to and from Iranian ports and coastal territories, including the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, with the blockade expected to be completely lifted within 30 days. According to senior U.S. officials, this measure is all part of the deal signed by President Donald Trump at the Palace of Versailles, where the U.S. and Iran agreed to reopen the crucial Strait of Hormuz and halt the war. In return for the blockade lift, Iran will now allow toll-free passage through the Strait of Hormuz for 60 days, ensuring safe passage for commercial ships without any charges […]
DSS rejects foreign funding for security and intelligence-gathering operations
The Department of State Services (DSS) has rejected proposals to allow foreign organisations to fund security and intelligence operations in Nigeria through the proposed DSS Security Trust Fund, warning of serious national security risks. DSS Deputy Director Emmanuel Duabry represented the service at a public hearing organised by the House Committee on National Security and Intelligence on bills aimed at strengthening the domestic intelligence agency's operational capacity. The DSS endorsed the bill to establish the Trust Fund but proposed far-reaching amendments, including the deletion of Section 3(d), which permits grants, donations and endowments from international organisations. Duabry said: "Allowing foreign funding for a security-related Trust Fund raises serious concerns relating to sovereignty, operational confidentiality, and institutional independence," urging lawmakers to expunge the clause. The DSS argued that accepting foreign funding could undermine institutional independence and expose intelligence activities to external […]
Insecurity: Fake news, political propaganda fueling terrorism — Abdulsalami
Former Head of State, General Abdulsalami Abubakar (retd.), has warned that political propaganda and fake news spread on social media are giving oxygen to terrorist groups and worsening insecurity in Nigeria. Abdulsalami said propaganda for political and other selfish gains is emboldening terrorists and undermining efforts by security agencies to combat insurgency and banditry. He decried how fake news spreads on platforms like Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp, noting that false stories, doctored videos and misinformation are being used to propagate extremist narratives and create distrust among citizens. According to him, some actors deliberately push misleading content to score political points or gain attention, without regard for how such propaganda can aid terrorists, destabilise communities and compromise security operations. Abdulsalami stressed that the fight against insecurity must be a collective responsibility, urging politicians, media practitioners and citizens to be more responsible […]

FG to evacuate over 742 Nigerians from South Africa before June 30
The Federal Government has announced plans to evacuate over 742 Nigerians from South Africa before June 30, following renewed xenophobic attacks and rising anti-migrant sentiment in parts of the country. According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the evacuation exercise is already underway, with the first batch of 258 Nigerians successfully airlifted from South Africa to Lagos as part of the voluntary repatriation scheme.

The government earlier approved at least five evacuation flights, operated by Air Peace, after more than 500 Nigerians were screened and cleared to return home, with the screening window extended to accommodate more applicants.

Relief for ADC, AP as Appeal Court stops deregistration order
Several opposition political parties, including the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and Accord Party (AP), have secured temporary relief after the Court of Appeal halted the enforcement of a Federal High Court judgment ordering their deregistration by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). Earlier in the week, Justice Peter Lifu of the Federal High Court in Abuja had ordered INEC to deregister ADC, Accord, Action Alliance (AA), Action Peoples Party (APP) and Zenith Labour Party (ZLP) for failing to meet the constitutional thresholds required to remain on the register of political parties. The trial court held that the parties breached Section 225A of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), which empowers INEC to deregister political parties that fail to win any elective seat or secure at least 25 per cent of the votes in relevant elections at federal, state or local government […]
