Iran’s SILENT REVENGE? Khamenei Rearms Proxies For ‘Final’ War With U.S. & Israel [Video]

Iran’s SILENT REVENGE? Khamenei Rearms Proxies For ‘Final’ War With U.S. & Israel

Iran is secretly rearming its regional proxies after the ceasefire with Israel, plotting a “silent revenge” against the U.S. and its allies. Houthi rebels have resumed Red Sea attacks, Hezbollah is regrouping despite major losses, and Iranian-backed militias in Iraq are targeting vital oil fields. With Assad’s fall blocking key supply routes, Tehran is racing to rebuild its network of influence. U.S. officials warn Iran could use these proxies as leverage in future nuclear talks, raising fears of a renewed wave of proxy wars across the Middle East. #Iran #SilentRevenge #IranProxies #MiddleEastConflict #AxisOfResistance #Hezbollah #Houthis #IRGC #IsraelIranTensions #USIran #ProxyWar #IranNews #RegionalTensions #Tehran #IranIsraelConflict #RedSeaAttacks #IranianProxies #YemenWar #IraqDrones #LebanonHezbollah #SyriaConflict #KurdistanOil #IranianWeapons #NuclearTalks #MiddleEastWar #IranEscalation #Geopolitics #TehranStrategy #IranVsUS #IranVsIsrael #BreakingNews Also Read India Advises Its Citizens Against Non-Essential Travel To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-advises-its-citizens-against-non-essential-travel-to-iran-7802657.html?ref=DMDesc Iran To Buy Chinese J-10C Fighter Jets :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-to-buy-chinese-j-10c-fighter-jets-7788123.html?ref=DMDesc Iran’s Uranium Mystery: 400kg Vanishes Without a Trace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-s-uranium-mystery-400kg-vanishes-without-a-trace-011-7787491.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~

Israel and Syria Uniting to ISOLATE Iran? Two BIG Reasons Behind Al-Shara's Tectonic Shift Explained [Video]

Israel and Syria Uniting to ISOLATE Iran? Two BIG Reasons Behind Al-Shara's Tectonic Shift Explained

In a stunning diplomatic development, officials from Israel and Syria are holding quiet, backchannel talks for the first time in over a decade. This move comes after months of intense regional conflict involving Iran-backed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, pushing both Jerusalem and Damascus to reassess their long-standing enmity. The United States, with backing from Donald Trump and his envoy Tom Barrack Jr., is mediating the effort, aiming to cool tensions along the volatile Golan Heights border. At the center of this pivot is Syria's new president, Ahmed al-Shara, who has signaled a dramatic shift from the hardline rejectionism of the Bashar al-Assad era. The primary driver for this newfound diplomacy is a shared strategic goal: limiting the influence of Iran and its proxies in southern Syria. For Israel, this is a matter of national security; for al-Shara's new government, it's a path toward securing sovereignty, gaining Western legitimacy, and obtaining much-needed economic relief. While full normalization seems distant, both sides are exploring a revival of the 1974 U.N. Disengagement Agreement, which previously ensured stability in the Golan Heights. In a significant gesture, the Trump administration has lifted the terrorist designation on al-Shara's former group, and Israeli leaders have softened their tone, describing him as someone they could potentially work with. However, analysts remain cautious, pointing to al-Shara’s past and the lack of public support for peace in Syria as major hurdles. Despite the challenges, the fact that these talks are happening at all represents a potential seismic shift in Middle East politics. This report breaks down the key players, the high stakes, and what this surprising diplomacy could mean for the future of the region. #IsraelSyriaTalks #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Israel #Syria #DonaldTrump #Iran #OneindiaNews #AhmedAlShara,

Giant billboards of Donald Trump and Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa have appeared in Damascus, thanking Trump for lifting U.S. sanctions on Syria.

Trump met him in May, calling him “tough” and “attractive,” marking the first U.S.-Syria leader meeting in 20+ years. #Trump #Syria #AlSharaa #MiddleEastPolitics #SanctionsLifted #USForeignPolicy #Damascus #BreakingNews #TrumpInSyria #Geopolitics #PeaceInitiative #TrumpMoves #SyriaReconstruction #AssadFall #SyrianLeadership #Diplomacy #StrongLeaders #TrumpAlSharaa #GlobalPolitics #USSanctions #TrumpSpeech #MiddleEastUpdate #WhiteHouse #SyrianPeople #PoliticalShift #TrumpExecutiveOrder #ForeignRelations Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~

SCO Summit BREAKING: Putin Meets Xi | Most Powerful Moment Of SCO Summit 2025

At the SCO Summit, a powerful moment unfolded as Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping engaged in a private and seemingly warm conversation. Xi immediately called for his interpreter after the photo-op, ensuring a lengthy and precise exchange with Putin while other world leaders lined up for the traditional family photo. Their relaxed smiles suggested not just diplomacy, but a bond strengthening at a time of rising global tensions. The interaction is already being seen as symbolic of a deepening Russia-China axis, potentially unsettling the West. Observers note that this visible show of unity comes as U.S. and NATO seek to counter both Moscow and Beijing’s influence. For many, it was more than just small talk—it was a message of strategic alignment, one that could shift the global balance of power. #Putin #XiJinping #RussiaChina #SCOSummit #Geopolitics #SCO #GlobalPolitics #Diplomacy #StrategicAlliance #WorldNews #PutinXi #BRICS #NATO #USChina #USRussia #PowerShift #Summit2025 #MultipolarWorld #EastVsWest #GlobalOrder ~HT.410~

Trump’s EXPLOSIVE Claims Amid SCO 2025 | Vows To Conduct Trilateral Meeting Between Putin & Zelensky [Video]

Trump’s EXPLOSIVE Claims Amid SCO 2025 | Vows To Conduct Trilateral Meeting Between Putin & Zelensky

A diplomatic drama is unfolding as US President Donald Trump declared that a trilateral summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky “will happen.” The statement comes after Trump’s Alaska summit with Putin, where he urged a one-on-one between Moscow and Kyiv first. While the Kremlin has not ruled out direct talks, it insists any bilateral must be the final stage once concrete progress is made. Meanwhile, Zelensky has reportedly asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “send the right signal” to Putin, pressing India’s weight as a potential mediator. Kremlin officials confirm flexibility on some issues, but warn NATO’s militarization of Ukraine makes peace elusive. With Putin currently in China, Trump’s bold promise, Kyiv’s appeals to Modi, and Moscow’s warnings against Western “peacekeepers” are shaping a high-stakes diplomatic gamble that could define the next phase of the Ukraine war. #Trump #Putin #Zelensky #Modi #Russia #Ukraine #US #China #Moscow #Kyiv #PeaceTalks #TrilateralSummit #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #NATO #India #AlaskaSummit #Diplomacy #UkraineWar #WorldPolitics ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.124~
