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.
“Liberation Day” in Washington, D.C.
President Donald Trump has declared a public safety emergency and taken direct federal control of the D.C. Metropolitan Police. Flanked by Attorney General Pam Bondi, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and FBI Director Kash Patel, Trump announced the deployment of the National Guard to restore order in the capital, which he compared to Baghdad and Mexico City.
Citing “phony crime numbers,” Trump said D.C. is spiraling into chaos — and he’s not stopping there. Cities like Chicago and Los Angeles are next on his list as he vows to expand the federal crackdown.
Is this a bold move to save American cities — or an unprecedented power grab? Watch and decide.

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?

Israel has launched one of its most daring operations inside Syria, sparking fears of an all-out war. A day after Israeli drone strikes killed six Syrian soldiers, IDF troops, fighter jets, and helicopters stormed a Syrian military site near Damascus in a rare ground raid. The two-hour mission saw Israeli forces land on a strategic hilltop before withdrawing. Syria accused Israel of violating international law, while Israel insists it was targeting Hezbollah-linked bases, raising tensions across the region.

Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa has issued a stark warning to Israel, accusing it of fueling unrest in Suweida and threatening that further intervention could spark a new regional war. Sharaa declared Syria’s battle is to unify the country, not divide it, while condemning Israeli strikes in Damascus and southern Syria. The violence, rooted in Druze-Bedouin clashes, has escalated into protests and accusations of sectarian manipulation. As Damascus faces criticism over abuses, Sharaa pledged accountability but vowed to resist Israeli interference at all costs.

Hamas has condemned Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s “Greater Israel” remarks as “madness” and a threat to regional stability, urging Arab states to cut ties with Israel and back Palestinian resistance. Hamas accused Israel of using settler violence as part of an annexation strategy in the West Bank, vowing continued defiance against occupation. Iran’s Foreign Ministry also slammed the plan, warning it targets territories in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Netanyahu called the vision a historical and spiritual mission for Israel.

In a dramatic escalation of Israel’s ground operations, IDF troops have uncovered and destroyed a massive Hamas tunnel stretching nearly one kilometer beneath Gaza’s Zeitoun area. The tunnel, fortified with living quarters and packed with weapons, was allegedly used by Hamas operatives to stage attacks against Israeli forces. Soldiers from the elite 7th Brigade under the 99th Division spearheaded the operation, working closely with the Israeli Air Force to dismantle the underground infrastructure. The IDF confirmed that several Hamas operatives were neutralized during the raid, while stockpiles of weapons were seized. The discovery underscores Israel’s ongoing efforts to eliminate Hamas’ extensive tunnel network, which has long been a central feature of the group’s warfare strategy. With the destruction of this tunnel, Israel signals a sharp blow to Hamas’ operational capabilities in southern Gaza.

Fierce battles raged across Gaza City, with tanks, drones, and airstrikes striking densely populated neighborhoods. Civilians bore the brunt of the violence — among the dead were 18 people shot while seeking food aid, while hospitals, markets, and displacement tents also came under attack.
