Colombian Senator Miguel Uribe, 39, a rising star in the right-wing opposition and potential 2026 presidential candidate, has died after being shot in the head during a rally in Bogota on June 7. The attack, carried out in front of supporters, left Uribe critically injured until his death was confirmed Monday by his family.
Police say five suspects have been arrested, including a 15-year-old alleged hitman, and Elder Jose Arteaga Hernandez, accused of orchestrating the plot. Authorities allege Hernandez, with a criminal history and Interpol file, arranged every stage of the attack, hiring the shooter and supplying the weapon. Colombian officials claim the killing was negotiated for around $250,000. Uribe, a member of the Democratic Center party, had announced his presidential ambitions in October last year, making his assassination a chilling blow to Colombia’s political landscape.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has defiantly declared that the United States cannot invade his country, even as Washington intensifies its military buildup in the Caribbean. The U.S. Navy has deployed eight warships, thousands of marines, and even a nuclear submarine close to Venezuela’s waters, sparking fears of a wider conflict. In response, Caracas has mobilized 15,000 troops, drones, and warships to reinforce security along the Colombia border. While U.S. officials insist the deployment is aimed at combating drug cartels, critics argue the scale of the operation points to a regime change agenda. Venezuela’s ambassador to the UN ridiculed the move, saying “no one fights drug cartels with nuclear submarines.” Meanwhile, Washington doubled its bounty on Maduro to $50 million, intensifying the pressure. Maduro insists Venezuela is stronger than ever and ready to confront what he calls an imperialist threat to sovereignty and peace.

Venezuela has escalated tensions with the United States as President Nicolás Maduro ordered 15,000 troops to the Colombia border amid the arrival of three US Navy warships off Venezuela’s coast. The dramatic military build-up comes as Washington accuses Maduro of leading a massive cocaine-trafficking cartel, while Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello vowed to combat drug cartels “on all fronts.” The United States has doubled its bounty on Maduro’s capture to $50 million and is reportedly preparing to deploy 4,000 Marines to the region. Meanwhile, Caracas has seized 53 tons of drugs this year but rejects US claims, instead accusing Washington of plotting regime change. With Venezuelan tanks moving toward border zones and US destroyers patrolling nearby waters, the risk of a direct military clash between Trump’s forces and Maduro’s army is higher than ever. The standoff threatens to spiral into one of the most dangerous flashpoints in the Americas.

Colombia has been rocked by one of its deadliest coordinated attacks in recent years, leaving at least 17 people dead. Authorities say dissidents of the defunct FARC rebels launched two brutal strikes: a car bomb outside a military aviation school in Cali and a drone attack on a police helicopter in Antioquia. At least 12 police officers were killed in the helicopter attack, which targeted personnel eradicating coca leaf crops, the raw material for cocaine. Another five lives were lost in the car bomb blast, which also injured more than 30 people. President Gustavo Petro initially blamed the Gulf Clan drug cartel but later pointed to FARC dissidents as key perpetrators. The violence underscores Colombia’s deepening security crisis as drug cartels and rebel remnants escalate attacks. The United Nations recently reported coca cultivation reached record highs, fueling tensions across the country.

Hawaii’s Kīlauea volcano erupted again early Wednesday morning, unleashing a spectacular 300-foot lava fountain in its 30th eruption in under a year. The U.S. Geological Survey’s Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) confirmed that “vigorous fountaining” erupted from the Halemaʻumaʻu crater around 1:20 a.m. local time. Lava spewed from the north vent, reaching between 150 and 300 feet, while USGS live cameras captured the molten display from multiple angles. An orange aviation alert has been issued due to the eruption, but nearby airports remain unaffected.
Since December 23, 2024, Kīlauea’s eruptive cycle has continued with brief, dramatic episodes. The National Weather Service warned that volcanic gas and ash could drift south, potentially impacting nearby communities. Despite the awe-inspiring natural show, scientists caution that these eruptions can be unpredictable and potentially hazardous. Kīlauea remains one of Earth’s most active volcanoes-and it’s showing no signs of slowing down.

A massive earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale struck Russia’s Kuril Islands on Sunday, sending tremors across the Pacific Rim but sparking no tsunami warnings. The quake, initially pegged at 6.35 magnitude by the German Research Center for Geosciences, was later upgraded by both the US Geological Survey and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center.
Fortunately, no tsunami alerts were issued, calming fears of a wider Pacific disaster. The quake's epicenter lay off Russia’s remote eastern coast, a region often rocked by seismic activity due to tectonic collisions along the Pacific Ring of Fire. There were no immediate reports of damage or casualties, but authorities are closely monitoring the region for aftershocks. The Kuril Islands, located between Russia and Japan, have been a long-standing hotspot for both geological tension and geopolitical friction. Experts advise residents to stay alert and follow official updates in case of aftershocks.

A rare earthquake struck the New York–New Jersey region late Saturday night, sparking online panic and raising fresh concerns over seismic preparedness in one of the most densely populated parts of the U.S. The 3.0 magnitude tremor hit six miles beneath Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey, at 10:18 PM, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS). Residents across Bergen, Morris, Essex Counties, and New York City felt the ground shake.
Social media exploded with reactions—some users shared personal experiences, while others posted shaky videos and memes comparing the quake to recent disasters like the tsunami-triggering quake in Russia. NYC Emergency Management confirmed the event and issued precautionary guidelines, warning citizens about possible aftershocks. No damages or casualties have been reported so far, but many are still rattled by the unusual seismic activity. Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely as updates roll in.

Kamchatka Earthquake Tsunami alert has been issued after a massive 8.8 magnitude quake struck off Russia’s far eastern Kamchatka Peninsula. The USGS confirmed that the Kamchatka Earthquake Tsunami originated from a shallow depth of 19.3 km, just 125 km southeast of Petropavlovsk. This region near Avacha Bay is now the epicenter of global concern as destructive waves are expected to reach coastal areas of Russia and Japan within hours. The Kamchatka Earthquake Tsunami has triggered international monitoring, putting vast stretches of the Pacific coastline on red alert.

A powerful 7.3‑magnitude earthquake struck off Alaska’s coast Wednesday, prompting an immediate tsunami warning for South Alaska and the Alaska Peninsula. The USGS reported its epicenter was roughly 54 miles south of Sand Point at a shallow 20 km depth — conditions that raise tsunami fears. The National Tsunami Warning Center confirmed a tsunami has occurred, cautioning coastal communities from Kennedy Entrance to Unimak Pass.
Though only these regions are at risk, residents are urged to evacuate low-lying areas and stay alert for updates. Alaska, part of the seismic Pacific Ring of Fire, previously endured a deadly 9.2 quake in 1964—the strongest in North America, which unleashed a devastating tsunami. While a 7.2 quake in July 2023 passed without major incident, the current event has revived emergency vigilance. Authorities are working to assess impacts and ensure community safety as aftershocks and swelling waves remain a concern.
