Calling it an “exciting” opportunity, Trump emphasized that the time has come for China to “open up,” just as the U.S. once did.

The Israeli Defence Forces launched a heavy missile strike on the European Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza, killing at least 28 people and causing massive destruction. Israel claims the target was a tunnel housing top Hamas operative Mohammed Sinwar, brother of Yahya Sinwar. Hamas denies operating near the hospital, calling the attack a strike on civilians. The strikes came just hours after Israel also hit Nasser Hospital, killing at least 18. Israel PM Netanyahu has vowed to eliminate Hamas with ‘full force’ in the coming days.

Trump fiercely defended the controversial $400 million Boeing 747 jet gifted by Qatar, lashing out at critics as "fools" and insisting the aircraft is meant for the United States — not for him personally. Trump claims the jet will serve as a temporary Air Force One replacement and save taxpayer dollars. But prominent Republicans and ethics experts are raising red flags over the optics, legality, and potential security risks, questioning whether the gift is truly for America or a veiled personal perk.

Houthis launched a hypersonic ballistic missile targeting Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv. The powerful strike—part of what the Houthis call their "aerial blockade" of Israel—forced all flight operations to halt and sent terrified passengers scrambling for shelter on the tarmac. Air raid sirens blared across Tel Aviv, al-Quds (Jerusalem), and Netanya as Israeli defense systems scrambled to intercept the missile. While Israel claims the projectile was intercepted, the Houthis insist the mission was a success. The strike occurred just as U.S. President Donald Trump was delivering a speech in Saudi Arabia.
