Israel has confirmed launching powerful airstrikes near the presidential palace in Damascus, targeting areas linked to Abu Mohammad al-Julani, the Islamist leader who seized power in Syria after Bashar al-Assad’s ouster. The strikes, which rattled the Syrian capital, come amid escalating sectarian clashes involving the Druze minority, following inflammatory religious remarks that sparked deadly unrest. Israel cited direct threats to the Druze community as the reason for the operation, warning Syria against sending forces south of Damascus

A ballistic missile launched by Houthi rebels in Yemen triggered air raid sirens across northern Israel, including in Haifa. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) intercepted the missile mid-air, but falling debris damaged the roof of a kindergarten at Kibbutz Mishmar Ha’emek. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. This marks an escalation in long-range threats from Yemen. In response, Israel struck a target near Damascus as tensions heighten. Israeli leaders warned against any hostile movements south of Damascus or threats to the Druze community amid regional instability.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued a stark warning during recent remarks on Capitol Hill, stating that Syria’s transitional authority could collapse within weeks without urgent U.S. support. Rubio argued that failure to engage could lead to a full-scale civil war and the disintegration of Syria, sparking regional instability and humanitarian catastrophe. With echoes of past interventions and warnings of “epic” consequences, Rubio’s comments have sparked major debate. What does this mean for U.S. foreign policy and the future of Syria?

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to seize full control of Gaza as the IDF intensifies Operation Gideon’s Chariots, launching simultaneous ground assaults in the north and south. Over 670 Hamas targets were hit this week amid heavy bombardment. Gaza hospitals have collapsed, and the UN warns of imminent famine. While Israel allows limited food aid, global pressure mounts to ease the blockade. Netanyahu insists, “We will not give up… we must act in a way that cannot be stopped.”

Iran has fiercely rebuked former U.S. President Donald Trump after he labeled Iran the “most destructive force” in the Middle East during a speech in Riyadh. Iranian officials, led by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, slammed Trump’s remarks as hypocritical and deceptive—accusing the U.S. of enabling Israeli aggression in Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon while unjustly targeting Iran. Tehran defended its regional role, framing itself as part of the "Resistance Axis" against oppression, and blamed decades of U.S. sanctions and military pressure for Iran’s economic struggles.

Violence broke out in the southern Damascus suburb of Jaramana after a controversial audio clip allegedly insulting Prophet Muhammad went viral. The clip, falsely attributed to Druze cleric Marwan Kiwan, triggered deadly clashes between Druze gunmen and government forces. Kiwan denied the message, and Syria’s Interior Ministry confirmed he wasn’t responsible. At least 10 people were killed, with activist groups reporting higher tolls. As religious leaders call for calm and Israel monitors the situation, tensions remain high in one of Syria's most volatile suburbs.
