Merkley challenged the strategy behind the flow of aid to Gaza, questioning the U.S.'s stance on Israel's tactics. Rubio responded firmly, emphasizing the importance of eliminating Hamas to secure a peaceful future for the people of Gaza. The heated discussion escalated as Merkley presented a shocking "before and after" poster depicting the devastating impact of the ongoing conflict. Watch this explosive moment in the Senate and see how the U.S. government's stance on Gaza is being fiercely debated.

Donald Trump's sweeping tax and spending bill cleared a major hurdle as the House Budget Committee advanced it late Sunday after GOP leaders caved to demands from ultraconservatives to speed up deep Medicaid cuts. The fast-tracked work requirements could eject millions from coverage. Clean energy tax breaks will also be phased out sooner. Though the bill now moves to the House floor, fractures within the Republican party persist. Senate resistance looms from moderates and green energy backers, making the path to passage far from smooth for Trumpâs high-stakes fiscal agenda.

In a dramatic escalation, Iran-backed Houthi rebels have threatened to bomb Israelâs strategic Haifa port, days after announcing an air blockade on Ben Gurion Airport. The group has now declared a maritime blockade on Haifa, raising alarms over Israelâs northern security and Red Sea shipping routes. The move signals a broader regional push by the Houthis, intensifying Middle East tensions and drawing international attention to the growing threat from Yemen-based fighters.

Israel has eliminated a senior Hezbollah commander, just one day after Prime Minister Netanyahu vowed to target Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi. The deadly operation is being seen as a chilling signal to Iran-backed factions across the region, especially Yemenâs Ansarallah (Houthis). The strike comes amid Israelâs ongoing confrontations with Hezbollah on its northern front and follows escalating rhetoric against Houthi leadership for their continued attacks in solidarity with Gaza. Is Al-Houthi next?

Trumpâs Big Defeat Against Houthis? The U.S. has withdrawn its aircraft carrier, the USS Harry S. Truman, from the Red Sea without replacement â signaling what many see as a strategic retreat under pressure from Yemenâs Houthi forces. The move follows a ceasefire brokered by Oman, aiming to halt maritime attacks. But while the U.S. and Houthis have paused direct hostilities, Houthi operations against Israel continue.

Israel launched powerful airstrikes on Houthi-controlled ports in Hodeidah and Al-Salif, Yemen, in retaliation for continued missile attacks toward Israeli territory. Defense Minister Israel Katz declared that Israel would hunt down and assassinate Houthi leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi, comparing the threat to past targeted killings of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders.
