‘DEATH to Trump…’: Man SCREAMS ‘Bomb the Plane’ Mid-Air, Arrested After Scuffle in Scotland | VIDEO

Mid-air panic struck an EasyJet flight from London Luton to Glasgow when a man screamed, “I’m going to bomb the plane,” triggering alarm among passengers. He was also heard yelling, “Death to America, death to Trump,” and “Allahu Akbar.” The shocking outburst was captured on video, now viral on social media. A male passenger quickly subdued the suspect before police arrested the 41-year-old upon landing in Glasgow. He remains in custody as counter-terrorism units examine the footage. Scotland Police confirmed investigations are ongoing. The airline, however, maintained that the safety of the passengers and flight was never compromised. Interestingly, the incident occurred just as former U.S. President Donald Trump was in Scotland finalizing a major trade deal with EU chief Ursula von der Leyen. The timing and nature of the incident have raised security concerns as authorities dig deeper into the suspect’s motivations and background. #DeathToTrump #FlightBombThreat #EasyJet #ScotlandNews #AirlineScare #PlaneTerror #BreakingNews #AllahuAkbar #DonaldTrump #TrumpInScotland #TerrorAlert #MidAirDrama #UKPolice #GlasgowFlight #PassengerArrested #CounterTerrorism #PlaneChaos #ViralVideo #TrumpNews #FlightSecurity ~HT.410~GR.125~

On Russia’s Navy Day, Ukrainian drones rained over St. Petersburg, forcing the cancellation of a key naval parade and halting flights at Pulkovo Airport.

In Sumy, a Russian drone hit a civilian bus, killing 3.

Trump Slaps EU With 15% Tariff Deal — “Better? No.” | Ursula Forced to Smile, U.S Refuses Any Relief [Video]

Trump Slaps EU With 15% Tariff Deal — “Better? No.” | Ursula Forced to Smile, U.S Refuses Any Relief

U.S President Trump refused to lower tariffs for the European Union, finalizing a major trade deal that locks in a flat 15% duty on most EU imports. When asked if he could offer a “better” rate, Trump snapped: “Better? Meaning lower? No.” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen was forced to smile through the awkward moment, securing zero tariff relief despite a last-minute scramble to strike a deal at Trump’s Turnberry resort in Scotland. The EU, in return, agreed to $750 billion in U.S. energy purchases—but walked away with no concessions, no exemptions, and plenty of political pressure at home. Was this a win for stability or a one-sided surrender? #Trump #EUTradeDeal #UrsulaVonDerLeyen #TariffWar #USPolitics #EuropeNews #TradeDeal #Trump2025 #BreakingNews #EnergyDeal #TrumpSpeech #GlobalTrade Also Read Harvard Not To Receive New Grants Until It Meets White House Demands: Trump Administration :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-to-not-receive-new-grants-until-it-meets-white-house-demands-trump-administration-4144481.html?ref=DMDesc White House Slammed For 'Dehumanising' Deportation Video Set To Pop Anthem: 'Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/white-house-slammed-for-dehumanising-deportation-video-set-to-pop-anthem-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-n-4116107.html?ref=DMDesc Historic Southern Magnolia Tree to Be Removed from the White House Grounds Over Safety Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/historic-tree-removal-white-house-safety-concerns-011-4109883.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~PR.274~ED.102~

Trump Explodes Ursula Over Climate, Border, Tariff |EU Chief Seen 'Uncomfortable' in Brutal Showdown

U.S President Donald Trump publicly humiliated European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen during a high-stakes trade announcement in Scotland. From mocking wind power — “Windmills are a scam!” — to refusing any EU tariff relief, Trump dominated the press conference, calling out Ursula for “not taking notes” and blasting the EU’s climate and immigration failures. Despite the EU’s hopes for a softer deal, Trump slammed them with a 15% tariff, compared their policies to “a con job,” and left Ursula visibly stunned. With no concessions secured, the EU leader stood by awkwardly as Trump delivered blow after blow in front of a global audience. #Trump #UrsulaVonDerLeyen #EUTradeDeal #TrumpVsEU #WindmillsAreAScam #TrumpSpeech #Turnberry #USPolitics #EuropeanUnion #BreakingNews #ImmigrationCrisis #ClimateDebate #TrumpNews Also Read Harvard Not To Receive New Grants Until It Meets White House Demands: Trump Administration :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-to-not-receive-new-grants-until-it-meets-white-house-demands-trump-administration-4144481.html?ref=DMDesc White House Slammed For 'Dehumanising' Deportation Video Set To Pop Anthem: 'Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/white-house-slammed-for-dehumanising-deportation-video-set-to-pop-anthem-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-n-4116107.html?ref=DMDesc Historic Southern Magnolia Tree to Be Removed from the White House Grounds Over Safety Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/historic-tree-removal-white-house-safety-concerns-011-4109883.html?ref=DMDesc

'DON’T TALK ABOUT ME!..’ Trump EXPLODES Over Epstein Scandal |Drops BOMBSHELL Names Of Epstein Files

In a fiery and wide-ranging press conference from Prestwick, Scotland, U.S. President Donald Trump touched on everything from UK trade deals and EU negotiations to the Gaza crisis, Epstein allegations, illegal immigration, and wind energy. Trump confirmed meetings with the UK Prime Minister and EU leaders, calling the UK trade pact a “celebration.” He praised Ursula von der Leyen, dismissed France's recognition of Palestine, and condemned Hamas while vowing support for Israel. He brushed off any links to the Epstein files and defended his associate Todd Blanche’s interview with Ghislaine Maxwell. Trump fiercely criticized Europe’s windmill projects and issued a grave warning about illegal immigration, claiming “you won’t have Europe anymore.” He also touted “six of the best months in presidency history.” As always, Trump didn’t hold back—sparking new waves of political reaction across Europe and the U.S. #DonaldTrump #TrumpInScotland #TrumpPressMeet #ScotlandNews #EUTradeDeal #TrumpOnGaza #WindmillsDebate #TrumpVsImmigration #TrumpOnEpstein #UKEUDeal #TrumpOnFrance #TrumpOnIsrael #BreakingNews #TrumpSpeech #TrumpGolfResort #Turnberry #TrumpPressConference #GhislaineMaxwell #TrumpVsMedia #TrumpEurope ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.124~

‘China's links with Russia…’ EU Chief’s SHOCKING Ultimatum To China Amid EU-China Summit | EU-China

The EU-China summit in Beijing ended early as tensions soared over China's deepening alliance with Russia amid the Ukraine war. Despite efforts to focus on trade, climate change, and rare earth supply cooperation, the shadow of Moscow loomed large. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned that Beijing's refusal to distance itself from Russia is now the main stumbling block in EU-China relations. Chinese President Xi Jinping countered with calls for multipolar cooperation and downplayed Western concerns. While there was some progress on rare earth mineral exports and climate action, trade imbalances and mutual investigations remain flashpoints. The summit reflected a growing unease in Europe over China’s geopolitical positioning and its reluctance to leverage influence over Russia. Despite efforts to build trust, Brussels made it clear: Beijing’s stance on Ukraine will define the future of their relations. Dialogue continues, but the cracks are widening as global fault lines deepen. #ChinaEU #BeijingSummit #ChinaRussiaTies #UkraineWar #TradeTensions #UrsulaVonDerLeyen #XiJinping #Geopolitics #RareEarths #ClimateTalks #EUChinaSummit #EUChinaRelations #MultipolarWorld #GlobalDiplomacy #TradeImbalance #GreenEnergy #Brussels #WesternSanctions #GlobalStability #PeaceTalks ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~
