Qatar Secures $2 Billion U.S Drone Arsenal: MQ-9B SkyGuardians, Hellfire Missiles, 700+ Smart Bombs

In a major move to bolster its defense capabilities, Qatar has secured a massive $1.96 billion arms deal with the United States, marking one of the most significant drone and weapons packages in the region's recent history.

The deal includes eight cutting-edge MQ-9B SkyGuardian unmanned aerial vehicles, over 700 precision-guided bombs, Hellfire missiles, and state-of-the-art surveillance systems. With key contractors like General Atomics, Lockheed Martin, and RTX involved, this agreement is set to reshape the military balance in the Gulf.

U.S. officials call it a critical step toward strengthening regional security and counterterrorism operations.

What does this mean for the Middle East—and America's evolving military alliances?

Gulf Royals Begged Trump to Halt Iran Strike? MBS, MBZ, Emir Tamim Warned Trump About War With Iran

In a dramatic diplomatic twist, Gulf powerhouses Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar reportedly urged President Trump to stand down from launching a military strike on Iran. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed (MBZ), and Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani warned that such action could provoke devastating Iranian retaliation—especially against U.S. bases on Gulf soil. As fears of regional chaos mounted, the Gulf leaders pushed Trump toward diplomacy and a new nuclear deal instead of confrontation. Trump, meanwhile, told Israeli PM Netanyahu to hold back on unilateral action and hinted that a “very strong document” with Iran could be signed soon. #Trump #IranStrike #MBS #MBZ #EmirTamim #GulfDiplomacy #MiddleEastCrisis #TrumpIranTensions #SaudiArabia #UAE #Qatar #IranDeal #TrumpForeignPolicy #NoWarWithIran #GulfStates Also Read Appeals Court Allows Trump To Continue Collecting Tariffs Under Emergency Powers Law For Now :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/appeals-court-allows-trump-to-continue-collecting-tariffs-under-emergency-powers-law-for-now-4167703.html?ref=DMDesc Harvard Granted One Month Extension In Trump Dispute Over International Student Ban: Reports :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-granted-one-month-extension-in-trump-dispute-over-international-student-ban-reports-4167515.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk Exits Trump Administration After Slamming ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ on His Way Out :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-exits-trump-administration-after-slamming-big-beautiful-bill-on-his-way-out-4166709.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~

Anti-Netanyahu protests in Israel | Protesters STORM Likud Party’s HQ seeking END to War

Public outrage is erupting in Israel over what protesters call “600 days of failure” by Prime Minister Netanyahu to bring back hostages held by Hamas since October 7, 2023. Over 3,000 people rallied in Tel Aviv, storming Likud HQ and demanding resignations. Clashes with police led to dozens of arrests. Demonstrators blasted the government’s hostage negotiation strategy, projecting a Qatari flag on Likud HQ to protest Hamas ties. Silent vigils and youth marches continue, as 57 hostages remain in captivity. #IsraelProtests #BringThemHome #HostageCrisis #Netanyahu #600DaysOfFailure #TelAviv #LikudHQ #CivilRebellion #HamasHostages #October7 #QatarTies #FreeTheHostages #YouthProtest #RonDermer #MetzudatZeev #JerusalemMarch #SilentVigil #IsraeliPolitics #HostageNegotiations #GazaWar #BialikSquare #StudentMarch #PoliceClashes #Shift101 #HostagesSquare #IsraeliYouth #HamasTerror #Likud #ProtestMovement #JusticeForHostages Also Read Netanyahu Confirms Hamas Gaza Chief Mohammed Sinwar Killed In Israeli Airstrike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-confirms-hamas-gaza-chief-mohammed-sinwar-killed-in-israeli-airstrike-4166343.html?ref=DMDesc Shots Fired Outside CIA Headquarters Hours After Israeli Embassy Staff Killings :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/shots-fired-outside-cia-headquarters-hours-after-israeli-embassy-staff-killings-4161067.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Announces New Gaza Aid Plan Amid Ceasefire Deadlock And Famine Fears :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-announces-new-gaza-aid-plan-amid-ceasefire-deadlock-and-famine-fears-4160331.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~

White House Breaks SILENCE Over Hamas Agreeing To Gaza Ceasefire Deal, Says ‘Only Israel Has
’

White House envoy Steve Witkoff has denied Hamas' claim that it accepted a U.S.-brokered Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal. Speaking to Axios, Witkoff clarified that only Israel has agreed to the current terms, and urged Hamas to accept the proposal that remains on the table. Earlier, a Palestinian source close to Hamas had claimed the group agreed to release hostages for a 70-day truce. The contradiction casts doubt on progress toward ending the conflict, raising concerns of further delays in reaching a ceasefire. #GazaCeasefire #HamasIsrael #HostageDeal #MiddleEastCrisis #Witkoff #WhiteHouseStatement #USMediation #GazaConflict #AxiosNews #SteveWitkoff #CeasefireTalks #HamasClaimDenied #IsraelAcceptsDeal #BidenAdministration #PalestineCrisis #MideastTensions #DiplomaticStandoff #GazaHostages #TruceNegotiations #BreakingNews Also Read In Qatar, Donald Trump Once Again Claims He 'Helped Settle' India, Pakistan Tensions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/in-qatar-donald-trump-once-again-claims-he-helped-settle-india-pakistan-tensions-4154237.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Rejects PM Modi's Remarks On Operation Sindoor, Calls It 'Provocative, Inflammatory Assertions' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-rejects-pm-modis-remarks-on-operation-sindoor-calls-it-provocative-inflammatory-asserti-4153615.html?ref=DMDesc IndiGo, Air India Cancel Flights To 7 Border Cities Amid India-Pakistan Tensions Despite Ceasefire :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indigo-air-india-cancel-flights-to-7-border-cities-amid-india-pakistan-tensions-despite-ceasefire-4151761.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~

Ramaphosa Trolls Qatar’s Jet Gift to Trump With Savage Swipe: 'I Don’t Even Have a Plane to Give!'

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa stole the spotlight with a sharply delivered remark that left world leaders—and social media—buzzing. In what appeared to be a cheeky jab at the recent headlines around Qatar gifting a private jet to Donald Trump, Ramaphosa quipped during a diplomatic exchange: “I don’t even have a plane to give!” The unexpected comment, made in Trump's presence, was met with laughter and raised eyebrows at the high-level event. While Qatar’s controversial gesture drew criticism and praise across political lines, Ramaphosa’s unfiltered response added a bold twist to the narrative. #TrumpRamaphosa #Ramaphosa #DonaldTrump #TrumpMeeting #WhiteHouseMeeting #OvalOffice #USSouthAfrica #SApolitics #USforeignpolicy #ZelenskyMoment #GenocideClaims #WhiteGenocideDebunked #RamaphosaTrump2025 #DiplomaticDrama #PressConference #InternationalRelations #LandReformDebate #SouthAfricaNews

U.S. DEFENDS Israel Over Gaza Aid Shooting That Killed 27 | Leavitt Blasts BBC's ‘FAKE’ Rafah Report

During a press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized the BBC for its reporting on an alleged Israeli tank strike near an aid center in Rafah. Leavitt accused the outlet of relying too heavily on Hamas claims and pointed to several changing headlines as evidence of misinformation. The administration says it is verifying facts independently, suggesting the BBC prematurely blamed Israel. The clash reignites debates over media credibility, Middle East coverage, and the challenge of reporting from conflict zones. #WhiteHouse #KarolineLeavitt #BBCNews #Rafah #GazaCrisis #MediaBias #Israel #Hamas #MiddleEast #PressBriefing #FakeNews #IsraelGaza #AidIncident #ConflictReporting #USPolitics #MediaWatch #HeadlineControversy #BBCvsWhiteHouse #GazaStrip #NewsEthics #Misinformation #InternationalNews #BreakingNews #BBCBacklash #IsraelPalestine #WarCoverage #PressFreedom #FactCheck #JournalismEthics #MediaAccountability Also Read Harvard Not To Receive New Grants Until It Meets White House Demands: Trump Administration :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-to-not-receive-new-grants-until-it-meets-white-house-demands-trump-administration-4144481.html?ref=DMDesc White House Slammed For 'Dehumanising' Deportation Video Set To Pop Anthem: 'Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/white-house-slammed-for-dehumanising-deportation-video-set-to-pop-anthem-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-n-4116107.html?ref=DMDesc Historic Southern Magnolia Tree to Be Removed from the White House Grounds Over Safety Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/historic-tree-removal-white-house-safety-concerns-011-4109883.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~

BREAKING: Israel Strikes Deep Into Syria After Rocket Fire | Syria Jumps Into Israel-Palestines War?

Israel launched overnight airstrikes on military sites in southern Syria following rocket fire from across the border. The Israeli military targeted areas in Damascus countryside, Daraa, and Quneitra, holding Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa responsible. Defense Minister Katz warned Israel will respond fully to any cross-border threats. Syria denied involvement and called the accusations politically driven. A group linked to Hamas, the Martyr Muhammad Deif Brigades, claimed responsibility. With tensions flaring near the Golan Heights, these strikes could derail fragile peace efforts between Israel and Syria. #Israel #Syria #MiddleEastConflict #Airstrikes #RocketFire #GolanHeights #SyrianMilitary #IsraelDefenseForces #RegionalTensions #BreakingNews #Damascus #Daraa #Quneitra #IsraelSyriaTensions #Hamas #MuhammadDeifBrigades #Katz #AhmedAlSharaa #IsraelStrikes #MilitaryEscalation #SecurityThreats #Geopolitics #CrossBorderAttack #MiddleEastNews #InternationalCrisis #SyriaResponse #ForeignPolicy #IsraelSecurity #ConflictUpdate #GolanCrisis #IsraelNews Also Read Middle East: UN Labels Gaza 'The Hungriest Place On Earth' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-un-labels-gaza-the-hungriest-place-on-earth-4168609.html?ref=DMDesc Shots Fired Outside CIA Headquarters Hours After Israeli Embassy Staff Killings :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/shots-fired-outside-cia-headquarters-hours-after-israeli-embassy-staff-killings-4161067.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.122~

“Hope Greta Can Swim”: Senator Graham Urges Israel to Bomb Thunberg’s Gaza Aid Ship Amid Uproar [Video]

“Hope Greta Can Swim”: Senator Graham Urges Israel to Bomb Thunberg’s Gaza Aid Ship Amid Uproar

Senator Lindsey Graham is facing global backlash after sarcastically suggesting that Israel should bomb Greta Thunberg’s aid flotilla headed to Gaza. Graham posted “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!” linking to her mission report. Thunberg, joined by actor Liam Cunningham and other volunteers, is sailing from Italy to deliver humanitarian aid to the besieged Gaza Strip. The flotilla defies Israel’s naval blockade, weeks after a similar ship was reportedly hit by drones. Greta says silence amid genocide is more dangerous than direct action. Israel has yet to comment. #GretaThunberg #LindseyGraham #GazaSiege #FreedomFlotilla #AidMission #GazaCrisis #MiddleEastConflict #Israel #Palestine #HumanRights #ClimateActivist #GazaBlockade #BreakingNews #Genocide #WarCrimes #UN #HumanitarianAid #GlobalSolidarity #FreeGaza #InternationalLaw #NavyBlockade #AidFlotilla #NonViolentAction #LiamCunningham #GazaUpdates #MadleenShip #ThunbergMission #GrahamTweet #IsraelPalestine #GazaHumanitarianCrisis Also Read Middle East: UN Labels Gaza 'The Hungriest Place On Earth' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-un-labels-gaza-the-hungriest-place-on-earth-4168609.html?ref=DMDesc Missile from Yemen Disrupts Flights in Israel Ahead of Key Vote on Gaza War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/missile-from-yemen-disrupts-flights-in-israel-ahead-of-key-vote-on-gaza-war-4143509.html?ref=DMDesc Immense Pressure From Families Of Hostages: Netanyahu Says Israel Has To Continue Fighting In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/immense-pressure-from-families-of-hostages-netanyahu-says-israel-has-to-continue-fighting-in-gaza-4128785.html?ref=DMDesc

Yemen BLASTS Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport With Hypersonic Missile | Civilians FLEE To Shelters

Yemen’s armed forces launched a hypersonic ballistic missile at Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport, halting operations and sending civilians into shelters. This marks the latest in a series of precise retaliatory strikes by the Houthis, who have previously targeted Israeli infrastructure. Three additional drone attacks hit Yaffa, Ashdod, and Umm al-Rashrash. Yemen’s President Mahdi Al-Mashat warned foreign companies to exit Israel or face "real and significant risks." The Yemen military stated operations will continue until Gaza’s blockade ends and aggression ceases, signaling potential escalation. #YemenStrike #BenGurion #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiForces #MiddleEastCrisis #MissileStrike #GazaBlockade #Airstrike #BreakingNews #YemenVsIsrael #BenGurionAirport #DroneAttack #MahdiAlMashat #MilitaryTensions #HypersonicMissile #ConflictUpdate #AirTrafficDisrupted #InvestorWarning #RetaliationStrike #MiddleEastWar #GazaSupport #IDFAirports #InternationalCrisis #NoFlyZone #AirportStrike #YemenNews #IsraelNews #DefenseAlert #AirRaid #GlobalTensions Also Read Middle East: UN Labels Gaza 'The Hungriest Place On Earth' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-un-labels-gaza-the-hungriest-place-on-earth-4168609.html?ref=DMDesc Shots Fired Outside CIA Headquarters Hours After Israeli Embassy Staff Killings :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/shots-fired-outside-cia-headquarters-hours-after-israeli-embassy-staff-killings-4161067.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~ED.103~

Israeli Attack Kills 31 Near Aid Point In Gaza | Hamas SLAMS Israel Accusing IDF Of Bloodshed

An Israeli attack near a U.S.-backed aid distribution site in Gaza's Rafah killed at least 31 people, according to local health authorities. As ceasefire negotiations falter, blame is being traded between Hamas and Israel over the tragic incident. The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which operates the site, denies any casualties. Meanwhile, Israel's military claims no knowledge of civilian injuries from its fire. The deadly strike comes amid failed truce talks, escalating violence, and accusations that aid is being weaponized. Over 54,000 Palestinians have died in Israel's ongoing Gaza offensive. #GazaCrisis #IsraelHamasWar #RafahStrike #CeasefireTalks #AidUnderAttack #MiddleEastConflict #GazaWar #IsraelAttack #Hamas #HumanitarianCrisis #USBackedAid #GHF #PalestineNews #BreakingNews #TruceFailure #GazaDeaths #RedCrescent #NasserHospital #IsraelUnderFire #WarCrimes Also Read Middle East: UN Labels Gaza 'The Hungriest Place On Earth' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-un-labels-gaza-the-hungriest-place-on-earth-4168609.html?ref=DMDesc Shots Fired Outside CIA Headquarters Hours After Israeli Embassy Staff Killings :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/shots-fired-outside-cia-headquarters-hours-after-israeli-embassy-staff-killings-4161067.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.102~
