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?

Israel SABOTAGES Ceasefire? Hamas Agrees To Truce But Israel Raises NEW Demands | 'All Hostages..' [Video]

Israel SABOTAGES Ceasefire? Hamas Agrees To Truce But Israel Raises NEW Demands | 'All Hostages..'

After Hamas accepted new ceasefire terms to release half of the hostages, Israel has shifted conditions, demanding the release of all 50 remaining captives. The move risks derailing a Qatar- and Egypt-brokered truce. Netanyahu insists war will only end if Hamas disarms, Gaza is demilitarized, and Israeli security control is secured. With over 62,000 killed and Gaza on the brink of famine, Trump’s call for the “full destruction of Hamas” fuels fears of a trilateral conflict involving the U.S., Israel, and Hamas. #Israel #Gaza #Ceasefire #Hamas #Trump #MiddleEastCrisis #Hostages #TrilateralConflict #WarInGaza #IsraelPalestine #Netanyahu #USIsrael #Qatar #Egypt #Turkey #Mediation #FullDestruction #TrumpStatement #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #MiddleEast #CeasefireDeal #IsraelArmy #TruthSocial #HostageCrisis #GlobalConflict #IsraelWar #GazaCeasefire #TrumpWarTalk #Palestine #GazaWar Also Read Israel Kills 5 Al Jazeera Journalist In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-kills-5-al-jazeera-journalist-in-gaza-011-7826025.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid Domestic and International Criticism :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825995.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid Domestic and International Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825985.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~

Hamas Agrees to 60-Day Ceasefire—Hostages for Prisoners, Protests in Israel | Will the Truce Hold?

Hamas has agreed to a 60-day ceasefire proposal mediated by Egypt and Qatar, with U.S. support, in a bid to halt escalating violence in Gaza. The plan includes the return of half the hostages taken since October 7 and the release of a number of Palestinian prisoners by Israel. While Hamas has confirmed its approval, the Israeli government has yet to respond, and tensions remain high as Netanyahu had earlier approved plans to seize Gaza City. Protests have erupted in Israel, and Gaza residents continue to flee in fear of a renewed offensive. Is this ceasefire a path to lasting peace or a temporary pause in a volatile war?

Subway Sandwich Attack: DC Man Charged Attacks Federal Agent Amid Trump Crime Crackdown

In a bizarre twist to Washington, D.C.’s ongoing crime crackdown, a man is facing felony assault charges for allegedly throwing a Subway sandwich at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent. Authorities say Sean Charles Dunn confronted the agent in the U Street area, hurling obscenities before “forcefully” tossing the sandwich into the officer’s chest. The incident unfolded amid President Donald Trump’s recent federalization of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department, deploying National Guard troops and multiple federal agencies to patrol the city. After a brief chase, Dunn allegedly confessed to the assault. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro slammed the act, warning, “Stick your Subway sandwich somewhere else.” The strange but serious case underscores the tense climate in the capital following Trump’s law-and-order push. #DCCrime #Trump #JeaninePirro #USCapitol #FelonyAssault #SandwichAttack #CBP #NationalGuard #BreakingNews #CrimeUpdate #DCCrackdown #LawEnforcement #BizarreCrime #FBI #DEA #USCapitolPolice #ATF #WashingtonDC #OfficerSafety #TrumpCrimePlan ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.122~

Trump's BIG Win Breaking: Mexico hands over notorious cartel bosses to US | Know The Gangsters

Mexico has extradited 26 top cartel leaders to the U.S. under a deal with the Trump administration, including Los Cuinis leader Abigael González Valencia and Roberto Salazar, accused in a 2008 deputy killing. The U.S. has designated the CJNG cartel as a foreign terrorist group but agreed not to seek the death penalty. President Sheinbaum reaffirmed cooperation while ruling out U.S. military action in Mexico. The move comes amid tariff negotiations, with Trump delaying a planned hike following talks with Mexican leadership. #Mexico #Trump #Cartel #CJNG #LosCuinis #Extradition #CartelLeaders #DrugWar #HomelandSecurity #Tariffs #AbigaelGonzalezValencia #RobertoSalazar #USMexicoRelations #BreakingNews #DEA #FBI #BorderSecurity #ForeignTerroristOrganization #USPolitics #CrimeNews #JusticeDepartment #PamBondi #Narco #OrganizedCrime #TrumpAdministration #SecurityCooperation #MexicoNews #InternationalCrime #TariffTalks #Sheinbaum #CartelCrackdown Also Read Trump Warns of Severe Consequences If Putin Does Not Agree To Stop War After Summit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-of-severe-consequences-if-putin-does-not-agree-to-stop-war-after-summit-7829263.html?ref=DMDesc US President Donald Trump Warns Of ‘Very Severe Consequences’ If Putin Continues Ukraine war :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-warns-of-very-severe-consequences-if-putin-continues-ukraine-war-7829199.html?ref=DMDesc President Trump to Push Putin for Peace in Ukraine During Alaska Meeting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/president-trump-to-push-putin-for-peace-in-ukraine-during-alaska-meeting-7828161.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~GR.122~ED.346~

Trump's D.C Police Takeover Explained: What Changes For American Police? How Dangerous is it? [Video]

Trump's D.C Police Takeover Explained: What Changes For American Police? How Dangerous is it?

President Donald Trump has invoked the Home Rule Act to seize control of Washington, D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department, deploying 800 National Guard troops and placing operations under Attorney General Pam Bondi. Federal agents from the DEA, FBI, and Border Patrol are embedded in local policing, despite crime rates being at a 30-year low. Experts say this unprecedented move applies only to D.C., though Trump’s broader agenda includes expanding federal support for law enforcement, rolling back accountability measures, and dismantling diversity programs nationwide. #Trump #WashingtonDC #PoliceTakeover #NationalGuard #DCLawEnforcement #MetropolitanPolice #HomeRuleAct #PamBondi #FederalControl #LawEnforcement #USPolitics #BreakingNews #PoliceReform #CrimePolicy #Accountability #PoliceSupport #FBI #DEA #BorderPatrol #MPD #LawAndOrder #DCNews #PolicePowers #FederalAuthority #PoliticalNews #TrumpOrders #PublicSafety #PolicePolicy #DOJ #DCPolitics #USNews Also Read President Trump to Push Putin for Peace in Ukraine During Alaska Meeting :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/president-trump-to-push-putin-for-peace-in-ukraine-during-alaska-meeting-7828161.html?ref=DMDesc Why Is Trump Really Upset With India?

“Liberation Day” in Washington, D.C. President Donald Trump has declared a public safety emergency and taken direct federal control of the D.C. Metropolitan Police. Flanked by Attorney General Pam Bondi, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and FBI Director Kash Patel, Trump announced the deployment of the National Guard to restore order in the capital, which he compared to Baghdad and Mexico City. Citing “phony crime numbers,” Trump said D.C. is spiraling into chaos — and he’s not stopping there. Cities like Chicago and Los Angeles are next on his list as he vows to expand the federal crackdown. Is this a bold move to save American cities — or an unprecedented power grab?

FBI ‘BLOODBATH’ On Trump's Orders? Kash Patel Faces Backlash-Calls to RESIGN After Agents Fired

Kash Patel, Trump’s FBI Director, is facing intense backlash after a wave of top FBI agents were ousted, including leaders from the January 6 probe. A group of former FBI and national security officials, calling themselves “The Steady State,” accuse Patel of turning the bureau into a political weapon for Trump. They warn that the purge threatens the FBI’s independence and undermines democratic values. Among the dismissed are high-ranking agents Brian Driscoll, Michael Feinberg, Walter Giardina, and Washington Field Office head Steve Jensen, in what critics are calling a “bureau bloodbath.” #KashPatel #FBI #PoliticalPurge #Bloodbath #Trump #FBIBacklash #SteadyState #Democracy #USPolitics #January6 #FBIDirector #PoliticalDrama #JusticeSystem #SecurityServices #Authoritarianism #TrumpAdministration #BreakingNews #LawEnforcement #DemocraticValues #FBIIndependence #USNews #PoliticalWeapon #FBIControversy #LeadershipCrisis #WashingtonDC #NationalSecurity #FBIInvestigation #TrumpTeam #BureauBloodbath #FBIShakeup Also Read FBI Chief Kash Patel Likely To Step Down :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/fbi-chief-kash-patel-likely-to-step-down-7799205.html?ref=DMDesc Pahalgam Attack: FBI’s Kash Patel Condemns Terror, Assures India of Complete Support :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pahalgam-attack-fbi-s-kash-patel-condemns-terror-assures-india-of-complete-support-4136541.html?ref=DMDesc FBI Arrests Punjab-Based Terrorist Harpreet Singh In US: Who Is Happy Passia? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/fbi-arrests-punjab-based-terrorist-harpreet-singh-in-us-who-is-happy-passia-4127219.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~

Trump’s Nobel Buzz EXPLODES As Armenia, Azerbaijan, Israel & Pak Unite In Global Peace Prize Push

In an unprecedented show of global consensus, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Israel, Pakistan, and Cambodia have all backed U.S. President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. Armenia’s Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijan’s Ilham Aliyev jointly credited Trump for brokering a landmark peace deal ending decades of conflict in the South Caucasus, calling him a “peacemaker.” The agreement includes a U.S.-controlled transit corridor — the “Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity” — linking Azerbaijan to its Nakhchivan exclave through Armenia. Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu, Pakistan’s government, and Cambodia’s Hun Manet also nominated Trump, citing his role in defusing conflicts from the Middle East to South Asia. The White House hailed the deal as a setback for China, Russia, and Iran. With multiple nations — some rivals — rallying behind him, Trump’s Nobel push has become one of the most talked-about diplomatic developments of the year. #Trump #NobelPeacePrize #Armenia #Azerbaijan #Israel #Pakistan #Cambodia #PeaceDeal #SouthCaucasus #USDiplomacy #MiddleEast #NagornoKarabakh #Aliyev #Pashinyan #Netanyahu #HunManet #GlobalPolitics #WorldLeaders #TrumpNobel #PeaceTalks ~HT.318~ED.103~

Trump To Send Envoy To Russia Days Before Ceasefire Deadline, Warns Of Sweeping Tariffs On Trade [Video]

Trump To Send Envoy To Russia Days Before Ceasefire Deadline, Warns Of Sweeping Tariffs On Trade

U.S. President Donald Trump has revealed that his special envoy, Steve Witkoff, may visit Russia on August 6 or 7 — just one or two days before the ceasefire deadline he has set for Moscow. If Russia fails to reach a peace deal with Ukraine by August 8, Trump says sweeping secondary tariffs will hit Russian oil and gas exports — and also target countries like India and China that continue to trade with Moscow. Witkoff, who controversially met President Putin in April, drew criticism for echoing Kremlin narratives and using Russian translators during their talks. Despite his original role as Middle East envoy, Witkoff now appears to be Trump’s unofficial channel to Putin. The pressure is mounting: Trump says sanctions are ready, but also admitted Russia is “pretty good at avoiding them.” A critical moment is approaching, with diplomatic brinkmanship and global trade consequences at stake. #Trump #Russia #UkraineWar #CeasefireDeadline #SteveWitkoff #Putin #Sanctions #Tariffs #RussianOil #China #India #MiddleEastEnvoy #MoscowMeeting #Kremlin #TrumpAdministration #OilTrade #UkraineConflict #GlobalTrade #SecondaryTariffs #TrumpNews ~HT.410~GR.122~
