Trump’s $45M Army Parade Overshadowed, Protesters Outnumber Attendees | “No Kings” Chants Echo in US [Video]

Trump’s $45M Army Parade Overshadowed, Protesters Outnumber Attendees | “No Kings” Chants Echo in US

President Trump’s highly anticipated 250th Army anniversary parade in Washington D.C. was meant to be a patriotic spectacle—but it fell flat. Despite tanks, military flyovers, and millions spent, the streets were shockingly under-attended. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of anti-Trump protesters flooded cities across the U.S., chanting “No Kings” and calling for his ouster. The contrast was jarring: as Trump delivered a brief 8-minute speech calling the U.S. “the hottest country,” political violence rocked Minnesota and national tensions surged.

Israel Eliminates Iran’s Air Force Chief Hajizadeh in Bunker Strike; Over 20 Iranian Leaders Killed

Israel has eliminated IRGC Aerospace Force Chief Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh in a precision airstrike on a secret underground command bunker. The Israeli Defense Forces confirmed that over 20 senior Iranian military officials, including commanders of Iran’s drone and air defense units, were also killed in the strike. The targeted facility was reportedly being used to coordinate an imminent large-scale attack on Israel. Hajizadeh, a key architect of Iran’s missile and drone programs, had previously overseen major offensives including the April and October 2024 attacks on Israel and the infamous 2019 drone strike on Saudi oil facilities. #IsraelIranWar #HajizadehKilled #IsraelStrikesIran #IRGCUnderAttack #IranGeneralsKilled #MiddleEastConflict #OperationRisingLion #IsraelAirstrike #IranMissileThreat #TehranUnderFire #IsraelDefenseForces #IranWarNews #IranIsraelTensions #BreakingNews #IDFStrike Also Read Avoid Unnecessary Movements: India's Advisory For Nationals As Israel Strikes Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/avoid-unnecessary-movements-indias-advisory-for-nationals-as-israel-strikes-iran-4180249.html?ref=DMDesc Israel Attacks Iran's Nuclear, Missile Sites With Explosions Booming Across Tehran; Hossein Salami Killed :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-attacks-irans-capital-with-explosions-booming-across-tehran-hossein-salami-killed-4180211.html?ref=DMDesc Who Is Hossein Salami, Iran's Revolutionary Guards Chief, Killed By Israel? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/who-is-hossein-salami-iran-revolutionary-guards-chief-killed-by-israel-4180209.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~
