CNN Under Fire After Freed Syrian Prisoner Revealed to Be Assad Regime Torturer, Musk Reacts
CNN is facing widespread criticism after a Syrian prisoner freed in a high-profile rescue effort led by journalist Clarissa Ward was revealed to be Salama Mohammad Salama, a notorious torturer for the Assad regime.
Initially identified as an innocent detainee named Adel Ghurbal, Salama was later unmasked through Facial recognition and eyewitness testimonies as a first lieutenant in Syrian Air Force Intelligence, known for war crimes and extortion.
Elon Musk fueled the backlash by mocking CNN on social media, amplifying public outrage.
The revelation has sparked global condemnation and questions about CNN’s vetting process.

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.

Fierce overnight clashes have erupted once again in Syria’s volatile Deir ez-Zor region, as Syrian Army forces launched a surprise ambush on U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). The dramatic midnight confrontation left the battlefield littered with gunfire and chaos, with four SDF fighters captured alive in what military sources are calling one of the most intense engagements in recent weeks. Tensions in the area remain dangerously high, fueling fears of a wider escalation.

Iran has issued a fierce denunciation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s recent remarks promoting the so-called “Greater Israel” project, branding it a “diabolical idea” rooted in fascist intent. Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei accused Netanyahu of openly declaring his regime’s ambition to seize territory from Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria in a blatant violation of the UN Charter and international law.
Baghaei condemned the plan as a direct assault on regional sovereignty, warning it would impose occupation over Muslim nations and expand ongoing atrocities in Palestine. The spokesman also urged the UN, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and all world governments to condemn the scheme. Drawing attention to the worsening humanitarian disaster in Gaza, he called for urgent Arab and Muslim unity to deliver aid, end the genocide, and hold Israeli leaders fully accountable for war crimes and systemic violations.

Israel and Kurdish fighters should stop destabilising Syria, Turkish FM Hakan Fidan says
Since Islamist-led insurgents ousted former President Bashar al-Assad in a rebel offensive in December, the interim government in Damascus has struggled to maintain stability and heal the wounds of the nearly 14-year civil war.

Iran is secretly rearming its regional proxies after the ceasefire with Israel, plotting a “silent revenge” against the U.S. and its allies. Houthi rebels have resumed Red Sea attacks, Hezbollah is regrouping despite major losses, and Iranian-backed militias in Iraq are targeting vital oil fields. With Assad’s fall blocking key supply routes, Tehran is racing to rebuild its network of influence. U.S. officials warn Iran could use these proxies as leverage in future nuclear talks, raising fears of a renewed wave of proxy wars across the Middle East.

In a stunning diplomatic development, officials from Israel and Syria are holding quiet, backchannel talks for the first time in over a decade. This move comes after months of intense regional conflict involving Iran-backed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, pushing both Jerusalem and Damascus to reassess their long-standing enmity. The United States, with backing from Donald Trump and his envoy Tom Barrack Jr., is mediating the effort, aiming to cool tensions along the volatile Golan Heights border.
At the center of this pivot is Syria's new president, Ahmed al-Shara, who has signaled a dramatic shift from the hardline rejectionism of the Bashar al-Assad era. The primary driver for this newfound diplomacy is a shared strategic goal: limiting the influence of Iran and its proxies in southern Syria. For Israel, this is a matter of national security; for al-Shara's new government, it's a path toward securing sovereignty, gaining Western legitimacy, and obtaining much-needed economic relief.
While full normalization seems distant, both sides are exploring a revival of the 1974 U.N. Disengagement Agreement, which previously ensured stability in the Golan Heights. In a significant gesture, the Trump administration has lifted the terrorist designation on al-Shara's former group, and Israeli leaders have softened their tone, describing him as someone they could potentially work with. However, analysts remain cautious, pointing to al-Shara’s past and the lack of public support for peace in Syria as major hurdles.
Despite the challenges, the fact that these talks are happening at all represents a potential seismic shift in Middle East politics. This report breaks down the key players, the high stakes, and what this surprising diplomacy could mean for the future of the region.

#AhmedAlShara,
Giant billboards of Donald Trump and Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa have appeared in Damascus, thanking Trump for lifting U.S. sanctions on Syria. The hoardings read “Strong Leaders Make Peace” and “Syrian People Thank You.” This follows Trump’s June 30 executive order ending broad sanctions to support Syria’s post-Assad regime. Al-Sharaa, a controversial former Al-Nusra figure, has pledged inclusive governance. Trump met him in May, calling him “tough” and “attractive,” marking the first U.S.-Syria leader meeting in 20+ years.

A surprising twist is unfolding in U.S. politics — prominent MAGA figures are calling for Elon Musk’s return to their fold. Vice President JD Vance, strategist Roger Stone, and activists like Scott Presler are urging reconciliation despite Musk’s past feud with Donald Trump over the “Big Beautiful Bill” and his talk of forming a third party.
They say Musk’s vast resources were pivotal to Trump’s 2024 victory, and could be decisive for the 2026 midterms. MAGA Inc has already raised $177 million in 2025, but leaders see Musk as the ultimate game-changer — their “George Soros of the Right.” Musk hasn’t spoken about his “America Party” in weeks and even donated $15 million to the GOP in June. He has recently supported Trump’s calls to federalize D.C. policing. The push for a full political reunion is intensifying.

Elon Musk made a bold accusation against Apple on Monday ... suggesting his X app is being snubbed in the mobile store -- and perhaps it's political! Responding.. TMZ.com
In a chilling development, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev declared that Moscow is no longer bound by its self-imposed moratorium on deploying medium- and short-range missiles — a move that signals a sharp escalation in its confrontation with NATO. Citing “the result of NATO’s anti-Russian policy,” Medvedev warned the West to brace for “further steps,” calling this aggressive shift a “new reality” that Russia’s opponents must face. This policy shift paves the way for the Kremlin to deploy ground-based missile systems previously banned under the now-defunct INF Treaty. Moscow’s decision has sparked fears across Europe and the U.S. of a renewed arms race and heightened global instability. The announcement comes amid rising tensions over Ukraine, NATO expansion, and growing military drills along Russian borders. As Russia signals its readiness to respond forcefully, the geopolitical chessboard enters dangerous new territory.

Elon Musk has just announced that his artificial intelligence startup xAI will soon launch a new kid-friendly app named Baby Grok. The app is expected to feature AI-generated content tailored for children, though Musk has yet to reveal specific features. The move comes just days after xAI launched Grok 4, the latest version of its chatbot, which previously sparked outrage for posting antisemitic content on X (formerly Twitter).
Musk’s announcement raises eyebrows across the tech world — is Baby Grok a sincere attempt at safe AI for children, or damage control following the Grok scandal? With xAI pushing boundaries at breakneck speed, and controversy still fresh, Baby Grok already faces scrutiny before its official debut. Musk’s pivot to children’s content could signal a new strategy for the troubled AI platform, as it tries to rebuild trust. But will the world trust Grok — even in its diapered form?
