Two powerful explosions shook Syria's capital, Damascus, following a series of Israeli airstrikes targeting critical military sites, including air defense bases and ammunition depots.
The blasts occurred just hours after opposition rebel forces declared control over the city, marking the end of President Bashar al-Assad's rule.
The bombings and explosions have escalated tensions in the region as the Syrian civil war enters a new, volatile phase.
The airstrikes and explosions have caused widespread destruction, and the city is now in a state of uncertainty as both local and international forces scramble to respond.
Donald Trump signs executive order lifting US sanctions on Syria
The new order does not rescind existing sanctions on ousted longtime President Bashar al-Assad, his top aides, officials and family members who are accused of having committed war crimes and human rights violations against Syrian civilians.

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?

In a dramatic escalation, Israel has launched a wave of devastating airstrikes on six Iranian airfields across western, central, and eastern Iran. The targeted strikes obliterated runways, underground hangars, refueling aircraft, and destroyed multiple Iranian warplanes — including F-14s, F-5s, and AH-1 attack helicopters. These aircraft were meant to intercept Israeli jets — but never left the ground.

In a stunning reversal of longstanding U.S. foreign policy, former President Donald Trump has lifted key sanctions on Syria, ending years of crippling economic isolation. The move comes as part of Trump’s promised Middle East shift, following the fall of Bashar al-Assad and the rise of a new interim government in Damascus led by Ahmed al-Sharaa — a former rebel commander.
The U.S. Treasury and State Department jointly announced a sweeping waiver of the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act, unlocking billions in potential investment and opening Syria’s oil, electricity, and financial sectors to international engagement. Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared the relief vital to restoring basic services like water, energy, and sanitation.

400 kilograms of enriched uranium—gone. After joint airstrikes by Israel and the U.S. on Iran’s nuclear facilities, the world is left asking: Where is the uranium? Did Iran move it in time? Was it destroyed in the strikes? Or is it now scattered across secret sites, ready for weaponization?
In this video, we break down:
What happened during the June 13 airstrikes
Satellite images and intel reports from Fordow and Isfahan
Why the IAEA is being denied access
Theories behind the uranium’s disappearance
And what this mystery means for global diplomacy, nuclear security, and the next phase of U.S.-Iran tensions.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit the White House on July 7 to meet U.S. President Donald Trump amid escalating efforts to end the 20-month-long Gaza war. The meeting will focus on securing a ceasefire, releasing hostages held for nearly two years, and addressing regional tensions with Iran following a recent U.S.-brokered halt to their 12-day air war. Israel is also pushing the U.S. to pressure Qatar to negotiate concessions from Hamas. This marks Netanyahu’s third meeting with Trump since January 2025. #Netanyahu #Trump #WhiteHouseMeeting #GazaWar #MiddleEastPeace #HostageCrisis #Israel #Hamas #IranTensions #Ceasefire #Qatar #USForeignPolicy #MideastConflict #Diplomacy #PeaceTalks #TrumpNetanyahuMeeting #GazaCeasefire #MideastDiplomacy #HostageNegotiations #USIsraelRelations #MiddleEastCrisis #IranIsraelConflict #QatarMediation #PeaceNegotiations #ConflictResolution #WarAndPeace

Israel has launched a wave of air strikes across Gaza, with northern Gaza City now a primary target following evacuation warnings from the Israeli military. At least 80 Palestinians have been killed since dawn, with dozens more wounded. Among the attacks was a strike on Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir el-Balah, raising fears of an impending and intensified ground offensive. The strikes come amid growing international concern over escalating civilian casualties and the targeting of critical infrastructure in one of the region’s most densely populated areas.
