The US military said that a Russian fighter jet flew within a few meters of a US drone over Syria and fired flares at it.
The military said that it struck the American aircraft and damaged it.
A senior Air Force commander said that the move on Sunday was an attempt by the Russians to knock the MQ-9 Reaper drone out of the sky.
This happened just a week after a Russian fighter jet flew dangerously close to a US surveillance aircraft carrying a crew in the region, jeopardizing the lives of the four Americans on board.
The head of US Air Forces Central, Lt Gen Alex Grynkewich stated that one of the Russian flares struck the US MQ-9, severely damaging its propeller.

Iran’s armed forces have shot down another U.S.-made Israeli MQ-9 drone in Ilam province near the Iraq border. This marks the fourth advanced Israeli drone destroyed in the region. Over 44 UAVs were neutralized by Iran in the last 48 hours, as Tehran intensifies retaliation after Israel’s large-scale strike on Iranian nuclear and military sites. IRGC commanders say Operation True Promise III dealt massive unexpected damage to Israel. Tensions soar as Ayatollah Khamenei warns that Israel will be rendered “helpless.” The drone war just escalated — and fast.

Tensions reignite in Yemen as Houthi rebels reportedly shoot down a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone over Saada Governorate—just days after Donald Trump announced a ceasefire deal. Dramatic footage circulating on social media appears to show the drone being hit midair and crashing in flames. The strike raises serious questions about the durability of the U.S.-Houthi truce, which Trump claimed was brokered with help from Oman to end attacks on vital Middle East shipping lanes. U.S. officials confirm multiple drone losses in recent months, and this latest downing suggests the Houthis may no longer be holding back.

Rama Duwaji—artist, activist, and wife of NYC Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani—has stepped into the spotlight after months of silence. The 27-year-old Syrian-American illustrator, known for her pro-Palestinian work, had avoided campaign publicity, sparking controversy and speculation. Critics claimed her art and political stance made her a liability.
But on June 24, as Mamdani celebrated his win, she stood beside him—silent, composed, present. Born in Texas, raised partly in Dubai, Duwaji's work explores Gaza, race, identity, and dissent. Her pieces have supported Palestinian students and questioned U.S. policies. She and Mamdani met on a dating app, married in a private ceremony, and have since become one of NYC’s most-watched political couples. Now, as Mamdani eyes City Hall, all eyes are on Rama Duwaji—the woman who may soon be NYC’s first lady.

In a stunning foreign policy pivot, Donald Trump lifts decades-old U.S. sanctions on Syria following the fall of Bashar al-Assad. Backing the new regime under Ahmed al-Sharaa—an ex-Al-Nusra figure—Trump promises economic revival, regional stability, and a “fresh start” in U.S.-Syria ties. Over 500 sanctions are lifted as the White House redefines strategy in the Middle East. Critics warn of legitimizing a controversial figure. Will this gamble reshape Syria—or haunt U.S. foreign policy?

Russia accuses Ukraine of chemical warfare after claiming to uncover drone bombs containing chloropicrin, a banned toxic agent, in Donetsk. Russian authorities say the devices, intended for UAV deployment, were found in a Ukrainian weapons cache and filed WMD-related charges. If verified, this would mark a dangerous escalation in the war. Ukraine has not responded to the allegation. Global watchdogs may now face pressure to investigate the use of banned chemical agents in the conflict.

In a bold move ahead of critical peace talks in Istanbul, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy challenges Russian President Vladimir Putin to meet face-to-face, daring him to engage in direct discussions for the first time in years. As the world watches, Putin lashes out at Ukraine’s forced conscription tactics, accusing Kyiv of "snatching people like dogs in the streets." Meanwhile, Russian forces continue to volunteer in large numbers, according to Putin, who proudly claims that 50,000-60,000 Russians sign up willingly every month.

Germany commemorated the 80th Victory Day with ceremonies honoring the defeat of Nazi Germany in WWII. Despite a ban on Soviet-era songs and symbols due to the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict, Russian folk songs echoed through Berlin streets in defiance. The ban sparked criticism from Russia, emphasizing the right to honor Red Army soldiers who played a vital role in defeating Nazism and sacrificing millions of lives during the war.

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.

The Trump administration has agreed to pay $5 million to Ashli Babbitt’s family, settling a $30 million wrongful death lawsuit. Babbitt, a Trump supporter and Air Force veteran, was fatally shot by Capitol Police during the January 6 Capitol riot. Though the officer was cleared of wrongdoing, Babbitt's family argued she was unarmed and received no warning. Trump has cast her as a martyr, while Capitol Police expressed disappointment, maintaining the officer acted in self-defense with no laws broken.

In a major update on Operation Sindoor, DGMO Lt. General Rajiv Ghai revealed that Pakistan launched repeated wave-style air attacks targeting Indian airfields and supply dumps between May 7 and May 10. All attacks were successfully thwarted by India’s integrated air defence systems. Meanwhile, heavy retaliatory action along the Line of Control resulted in the reported loss of 35 to 40 Pakistani soldiers due to artillery and small arms fire. This joint Indian Army and Air Force operation marks a significant escalation in India's military posture following the Pahalgam terror attack, reinforcing India's message of zero tolerance for cross-border aggression.
