Pakistani PM Calls India’s Airstrikes ‘ACT OF WAR’| India's Operation Sindoor Rattles Pakistan

India has launched Operation Sindoor, targeting terror launchpads in Pakistan and PoK after the Pahalgam massacre. Nine key Jaish-e-Mohammed-linked sites were hit in a precise military strike. Pakistan's PM Shehbaz Sharif called the strikes an “act of war” and vowed a “befitting reply,” while the defense minister accused India of killing civilians. U.S. President Trump expressed concern, urging calm. With tensions rising, India maintains the strikes were a measured response to terror.

Is Netanyahu Using the Gaza War To Escape Jail? Corruption Trials Worth Millions Loom Over Israel PM

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stands trial in three major corruption cases—accused of accepting lavish gifts, manipulating media coverage, and trading regulatory favors for political gain. As Gaza burns, Netanyahu fights to stay in power while facing bribery, fraud, and breach of trust charges. Critics accuse him of using war to delay justice, while he pushes legal reforms that could dismantle oversight. With potential prison time looming, Netanyahu becomes the first Israeli PM to stand trial while in office—waging two battles: one in court, the other on the battlefield. #Netanyahu #Israel #CorruptionTrial #GazaWar #IsraeliPolitics #Bribery #Fraud #MiddleEast #WarAndJustice #Case1000 #Case2000 #Case4000 #IsraeliPM #BreakingNews #WitchHunt #CourtCase #GazaCrisis #LegalReform #AttorneyGeneral #PoliticalDrama #NetanyahuTrial #Jerusalem #IDF #InternationalLaw #IsraelGaza #MiddleEastPolitics #JudicialReform #NetanyahuScandal #MediaManipulation #QuidProQuo #JusticeDelayed Also Read Netanyahu: Response To Iran-Backed Houthi Attack Will Come With ‘Many Bangs’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-response-to-iran-backed-houthi-attack-will-come-with-many-bangs-4143405.html?ref=DMDesc Immense Pressure From Families Of Hostages: Netanyahu Says Israel Has To Continue Fighting In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/immense-pressure-from-families-of-hostages-netanyahu-says-israel-has-to-continue-fighting-in-gaza-4128785.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc

Israel Takes REVENGE With Most Devastating Attack On Yemen's Biggest Port | Over 70% Port Destroyed

Israel has launched airstrikes on Yemen’s key Hodeidah port after a Houthi missile exploded near Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport. The strikes, coordinated with the U.S., destroyed over 70% of the port’s infrastructure, killing one and injuring dozens. The port handles 80% of Yemen’s food imports, raising fears of a humanitarian crisis. Houthis responded by sealing the area, warning of further escalation. As Netanyahu vows more retaliation and Houthis pledge continued attacks over Gaza, a broader regional conflict now seems unavoidable. #Israel #Yemen #Hodeidah #Houthis #Gaza #RedSeaCrisis #TelAviv #BenGurionAirport #Airstrike #MiddleEastConflict #Netanyahu #HouthiMissile #IsraelDefenseForces #IDF #USIsraelAlliance #GazaWar #HumanitarianCrisis #FoodShortage #PortAttack #MilitaryEscalation #BreakingNews #GlobalConflict #WarUpdate #TelAvivMissile #YemenWar #IsraelHouthiWar #RedSeaPort #HodeidahStrikes #GazaSolidarity #RegionalTensions Also Read Missile from Yemen Disrupts Flights in Israel Ahead of Key Vote on Gaza War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/missile-from-yemen-disrupts-flights-in-israel-ahead-of-key-vote-on-gaza-war-4143509.html?ref=DMDesc Immense Pressure From Families Of Hostages: Netanyahu Says Israel Has To Continue Fighting In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/immense-pressure-from-families-of-hostages-netanyahu-says-israel-has-to-continue-fighting-in-gaza-4128785.html?ref=DMDesc Israel Detains, Deports 2 Female UK MPs; Britain Calls It 'Unacceptable, Deeply Troubling' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-detains-deports-2-female-uk-mps-britain-calls-it-unacceptable-deeply-troubling-4116053.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.122~ED.103~
