Baghdad drone strike| U.S. strike kills militia leader blamed for Iraq attacks | Know more| Oneindia

The U.S. military has carried out a strike in Baghdad against an Iraqi militia leader it blames for attacks against U.S. forces in the country, killing him and another person, a U.S. official told Reuters on Thursday.

The U.S. official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the strike hit a vehicle in Baghdad.

It targeted a leader of Harakat al Nujaba, the official said, without naming the person.

The U.S. military has come under attack at least 100 times in Iraq and Syria since the Israel-Hamas war began in October, usually with a mix of rockets and one-way attack drones.

The United States has 2,500 troops deployed in Iraq and 900 in neighbouring Syria in a bid to prevent a resurgence of Islamic State militants.

BREAKING: Iran-Backed Militias Strike U.S Oil Site in Iraq —Kurdistan in Flames, Drone War Escalates

A U.S.-operated oil field in Iraq’s Kurdistan Region has been obliterated by a drone strike — and all signs point to Iran-backed militias. The target: HKN Energy’s Sarsang site in Duhok, now in flames and completely shut down. As smoke rises, so do fears of a wider proxy war unfolding across Iraq. The attack, which Kurdish officials condemned as a “deliberate act of terrorism,” comes amid a stalled oil export system and growing instability. The U.S. has issued a sharp rebuke, demanding Iraq take action. Meanwhile, Baghdad and Erbil are under pressure to respond — fast. Is this the beginning of a new front in Iran’s shadow war with the U.S.? Or a direct message to Washington about who controls Iraq’s energy future? #Iraq #Kurdistan #DroneStrike #IranProxies #MiddleEastCrisis #USInterests #HKN #OilWar #EnergySecurity #IranVsUS #Duhok #Baghdad #ProxyWar #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #OilCrisis ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.420~

Israel's SINISTER Plan: Netanyahu Vows To Continue Gaza War Despite World Flags His War Crimes

Israel faces mounting global condemnation over its military campaign in Gaza, accused of using starvation tactics and blocking aid. Despite backlash, Prime Minister Netanyahu has doubled down, vowing to continue operations until Hamas is fully eliminated. With over 20,000 Hamas fighters reportedly still active and Israeli casualties rising, the war grinds on. Europe and human rights groups have urged Israel and the U.S. to halt the blockade, but Netanyahu, speaking from Ramon Air Base, insists on seeing through what he calls Israel's “war goals.” Gaza’s humanitarian crisis deepens. #Israel #GazaWar #Hamas #Netanyahu #GazaCrisis #AidBlockade #IsraelHamasConflict #MiddleEastWar #GlobalCondemnation #WarCrimes #SilentWar #AlQassam #AbuObeida #IsraelUnderFire #WarOfAttrition #StarvationTactics #CeasefireFailed #October7 #IsraelStrikesBack #WarNews #GazaSiege #InternationalPressure #MilitaryOffensive #IDF #UNWarning #GazaStrip #HumanitarianCrisis #RamonAirBase #NoAid #MiddleEastConflict #BreakingNews Also Read Israel And Syria Agree To ceasefire: US Ambassador To Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-and-syria-agree-to-ceasefire-us-ambassador-to-turkey-011-7805781.html?ref=DMDesc ‘She Used Me for Money’: Israeli Father’s Struggle to See Daughters After Gokarna Rescue :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/she-used-me-for-money-israeli-father-s-struggle-to-see-daughters-after-gokarna-rescue-011-7804789.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.125~

Israel Caught on Camera: Soldiers BREAK Gaza Aid Handala Ship’s CCTV Before Seizing Food & Medicine

CCTV footage from the Handala aid ship shows Israeli soldiers breaking cameras during a midnight raid in international waters. The Gaza-bound vessel, carrying baby formula, food, and medicine for starving civilians, was intercepted 40 nautical miles from Gaza. Israeli forces detained 21 international activists and journalists, seizing all aid cargo. This marks the second ship blocked in recent months, amid rising global outrage over Gaza’s worsening humanitarian crisis. Cameras and communications were cut before the vessel was escorted back to shore, deepening calls for accountability. #GazaAid #Israel #HandalaShip #GazaBlockade #HumanitarianCrisis #MidnightRaid #CCTVFootage #BreakingNews #AidShip #FoodAndMedicine #InternationalWaters #NavyRaid #HumanRights #GlobalOutrage #SeizedAid #StarvationCrisis #MedicalCollapse #ActivistsDetained #JournalistsDetained #GretaThunberg #MadleenShip #AidBlocked #IsraelPalestine #GazaSiege #HumanitarianAid #InternationalLaw #CrisisInGaza #AidShipRaid #CCTVProof #AidSeizure Also Read Israel And Syria Agree To ceasefire: US Ambassador To Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-and-syria-agree-to-ceasefire-us-ambassador-to-turkey-011-7805781.html?ref=DMDesc ‘She Used Me for Money’: Israeli Father’s Struggle to See Daughters After Gokarna Rescue :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/she-used-me-for-money-israeli-father-s-struggle-to-see-daughters-after-gokarna-rescue-011-7804789.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~

Israel In Turmoil As Anti-Govt Fury Erupts Over Gaza Bombings, Hostages | Netanyahu To Flee?

Tel Aviv witnessed emotional and politically charged protests as the war in Gaza and the unresolved hostage crisis continue to haunt Israel. On one end of the city’s beachside, left-wing Israeli activists staged a solemn vigil, holding up photos of Palestinian children killed during the months-long bombardment of Gaza. The haunting memorial served as a reminder of the devastating toll on civilians. Simultaneously, hundreds gathered outside the Defence Ministry headquarters demanding swift government action for the release of hostages still held captive by Palestinian militants since the Hamas-led October 7 attacks. The dual protests, though emotionally and ideologically different, reflect a nation torn between grief, anger, and the urgent desire for closure. As frustration grows, both against Hamas and within Israeli leadership, the demonstrations reveal deep cracks in public sentiment over how the Gaza war has been waged — and what it’s left behind. #TelAvivProtests #GazaWar #HostageCrisis #IsraelPalestine #October7Attack #WarToll #PalestinianChildren #HamasHostages #IsraeliProtest #GazaConflict #LeftWingActivism #DefenceMinistryProtest #IsraelUnrest #HostagesInGaza #GazaCasualties #ProtestForPeace #GazaWarDeaths #VigilForChildren #IsraelCracks #MiddleEastTensions ~HT.410~GR.125~ED.102~

Gaza Latest: 10 K#lled In Israeli Fire Near Aid Sites | Starvation Deaths And Hostage Crisis Spiral

At least 10 Palestinians were k#lled after Israeli fire targeted civilians near two Gaza aid sites, just as hunger-related deaths surged, with seven dying in 24 hours, including a child. Witnesses say Israeli troops opened fire on crowds near the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) site and at the Zikim crossing, days after a top U.S. envoy visited. The deadly incident follows the deaths of 859 Palestinians near GHF zones since May. Meanwhile, starvation claims more lives as food trucks remain blocked and airdrops prove insufficient. Hostage families fear their loved ones are starving too and demand a deal. As U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff meets families in Tel Aviv, pressure mounts on Israel to negotiate. Airstrikes on shelters and tents continue to k#ll civilians as Gaza plunges deeper into crisis. With 93 children now confirmed dead from malnutrition, the war's humanitarian cost is spiraling into catastrophe. #gaza #gazawar #israelpalestine #humanitariancatastrophe #aiddeaths #hostagecrisis #usenvoy #ghf #gazaairstrikes #malnutritiondeaths #gazachildren #gazaaid #trumpenvoy #rafah #zikim #nasserhospital #ghfshooting #foodblockade #gazastarvation #humanrights ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.124~

‘REFUSE TO SERVE': Ex IDF Soldiers And Israelis Call Netanyahu’s Gaza War ‘Genocide’ |"IDF Stop.."

Thousands gathered in Tel Aviv’s Habima Square to protest Israel’s war in Gaza, with former IDF soldiers and Palestinian activists demanding an immediate end to the conflict. Protestors urged mass civil disobedience and called on Israeli soldiers to refuse military service. Actor Yossi Zabari shocked many by saying “the word genocide frightens Israelis more than the act itself.” Peace organizers plan to set up a “struggle tent” in Tel Aviv as calls grow louder for an end to what they call a “government of death.” #TelAvivProtest #GazaWar #IsraelPalestine #StopTheWar #IDFRefusers #HabimaSquare #CivilDisobedience #EndTheWar #PeaceNow #RulaDaoud #GhadirHani #YossiZabari #GenocideDebate #GazaCeasefire #NetanyahuProtest #MarchForPeace #ProtestNews #MiddleEastCrisis #JewishArabUnity #StruggleTent #AntiWarMovement #VoicesForPeace #GazaCrisis #IsraelProtests #Activism #PeaceActivists #IDFProtest #NoMoreWar #StopGenocide #EndOccupation Also Read Killing Sinwar: A Victory, But What Comes Next for Netanyahu? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/killing-sinwar-a-victory-but-what-comes-next-for-netanyahu-3963615.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Dismisses US Appeal to End Rafah Offensive Ahead of Washington Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-rejects-us-request-to-stop-rafah-offensive-011-3781707.html?ref=DMDesc Bidens Directive on Military Aid: A Shift in Approach to Protect Civilians :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/bidens-directive-military-aid-protecting-civilians-gen-3747487.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~
