Tensions reignite as Iran’s top military commander warns the U.S. and Israel of a strong retaliation if provoked. After the 12-day war with Israel, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei claims America and its allies failed to achieve any objective. Iran is now conducting a global diplomatic push and promises to rebuild its nuclear program. With fiery speeches and renewed threats, Iran is signaling it's prepared for war, accusing the West of arrogance and aggression. Are we witnessing the next flashpoint in the Middle East?

During the recent 12-day war between Iran and Israel, the United States fired over 150 THAAD interceptors, exhausting nearly 25% of its total stockpile and racking up costs estimated at $1.9 billion. While the U.S. deployed its most advanced missile defense systems to shield Israeli territory, dozens of Iranian missiles still struck their targets — raising alarming questions about the limits of missile defense saturation and America’s readiness for future conflicts.
The Pentagon now faces a growing stockpile crisis, with only 11 THAAD missiles produced in 2024 and a slow ramp-up planned for 2025 and 2026. As tensions continue to rise across the Middle East and Asia, the strategic shortfall of THAAD interceptors is being watched closely by major powers like China and Russia.
This report includes archival visuals of Trump-era THAAD deployments, Iranian missile attacks, and exclusive coverage of defense developments as the U.S. military reassesses its global missile defense posture.

Europe’s powerful ‘E3’—Germany, France, and the UK—are signaling a major diplomatic rift with the U.S. and Israel over the Gaza crisis. After criticizing Israel’s blockade of aid and civilian deaths, France has recognized Palestine, while the UK has pledged recognition without a timeline. Germany’s Chancellor Merz hinted at a coordinated Middle East policy, fueling speculation of a NATO split. As public protests grow across Europe, E3 leaders are pressured to take a tougher stance on Gaza, potentially exposing U.S.–Israel hypocrisy on the conflict.

In a chilling display of urban guerrilla warfare, fighters from Saraya Al-Quds—the armed wing of Palestinian Islamic Jihad—launched a deadly ambush on Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) troops in Gaza City. RAW surveillance footage shows the moment a Zionist Merkava tank was obliterated by a pre-planted, armor-piercing explosive east of the Al-Tuffah neighborhood. The video also reveals militants advancing into the targeted zone, capturing an Israeli intelligence drone post-blast.
