Turkey Wildfires Kill 2 As ‘Children Of Fire’ Claims Arson In 6 Cities, PKK Links Spark Fears

Turkey is battling deadly wildfires across multiple provinces, with two fatalities confirmed and over 200 homes destroyed.

The blazes, burning for seven straight days, have taken a sinister turn after a group calling itself “Children of Fire” claimed responsibility for coordinated arson attacks in six cities.

The group, allegedly linked to the banned Kurdish militant organization PKK, says it started the fires as part of a political campaign.

The PKK has not commented on the claim.

Firefighting operations continue near major cities like Izmir, Antalya, and Istanbul, with support from helicopters and aircraft.

Roads near popular resort town Çeşme have been closed, and hundreds have been evacuated.

As emergency services struggle to contain the flames, Turkey now faces a national security scare amid environmental devastation.

The interior ministry has launched investigations into the arson claims while warning that further attacks may be imminent as the dry summer season continues.

Erdogan Backs Al-Sharaa’s Fight against Netanyahu | Syrian Civil War escalates | Turkey vs Israel

Turkey has officially entered the Syrian civil war after Damascus requested assistance to combat terror groups and stabilize the south. Ankara will provide military training, consultancy, and armoured vehicles to support Syrian forces. This comes amid escalating Druze-Bedouin violence in Sweida and Israeli airstrikes targeting Syrian military assets. Turkey’s move, framed as a push for regional stability, heightens fears of a broader confrontation with Israel. Ankara backs Syria’s sovereignty while accusing Israeli actions of destabilizing southern Syria and provoking wider conflict. #TurkeyInSyria #SyrianCivilWar #Erdogan #AlSharaa #IsraelVsTurkey #Israel #MiddleEastConflict #SyriaWarUpdate #TurkeyMilitarySupport #DruzeBedouinClashes #SyriaIsraelTensions #SweidaCrisis #DamascusAirstrikes #RegionalEscalation #BreakingNews #MiddleEastNews #SyriaCrisis #ErdoganVsNetanyahu #Geopolitics #UNAlert #TurkeySyriaAlliance #AnkaraStatement #IDFStrikes #ErdoganResponse #SyriaUnderFire #WarInSyria #TurkeyIsraelFaceOff Also Read Israel And Syria Agree To ceasefire: US Ambassador To Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-and-syria-agree-to-ceasefire-us-ambassador-to-turkey-011-7805781.html?ref=DMDesc Airstrike Caught On Live TV: Israeli Missiles Hit Syrian Defence HQ In Damascus :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/airstrike-caught-on-live-tv-israeli-missiles-hit-syrian-defence-hq-in-damascus-7803237.html?ref=DMDesc Ceasefire Collapses In Sweida; Israel Responds With Strike On Syrian Army :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ceasefire-collapses-in-sweida-israel-responds-with-strike-on-syrian-army-7803123.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

HAMAS REGAINS GAZA: Another IDF Soldier Killed In Gaza After Abu Obeida's 'Attrition War' Warning

An Israeli soldier, Staff Sgt. Amit Cohen, 19, from the Golani Brigade’s 13th Battalion, was killed in southern Gaza as IDF forces pushed deeper into Khan Younis. A preliminary probe revealed Cohen died from an Israeli munitions blast, highlighting the dangers of the ongoing ground offensive. Hamas’s military wing continues targeted attacks, vowing an attrition war if Israeli tanks advance further. Despite years of war, Hamas remains undefeated, with IDF morale weakening as more soldiers are lost, including five in a deadly IED attack on July 8. #IsraelGazaWar #IDF #Hamas #GazaConflict #MiddleEastCrisis #GolaniBrigade #KhanYounis #AttritionWar #AbuObeida #AlQassamBrigades #GazaBlast #IDFLosses #IsraeliForces #HamasResistance #GazaWarUpdates #DeirAlBalah #IEDAttack #WarCasualties #IsraeliSoldier #MilitaryConflict #IsraelHamasWar #GazaFighting #IsraelNews #PalestineNews #MiddleEastNews #GroundOffensive #WarInGaza #LatestFromGaza #IDFMorale #IDFDeaths #HamasUnyielding Also Read Israel And Syria Agree To ceasefire: US Ambassador To Turkey :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-and-syria-agree-to-ceasefire-us-ambassador-to-turkey-011-7805781.html?ref=DMDesc ‘She Used Me for Money’: Israeli Father’s Struggle to See Daughters After Gokarna Rescue :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/she-used-me-for-money-israeli-father-s-struggle-to-see-daughters-after-gokarna-rescue-011-7804789.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc

Erodgan’s Dirty Politics RESURFACES As More CHP Leaders Arrested After Imamoglu’s Imprisonment

In a dramatic escalation of Turkey’s political crackdown, three more opposition mayors — Abdurrahman Tutdere of Adiyaman, Zeydan Karalar of Adana, and Muhittin Bocek of Antalya — have been arrested in sweeping early-morning raids. All are members of the main opposition party, CHP, which has faced a wave of detentions following Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu’s imprisonment in March. The mayors are accused of bribery, bid-rigging, and organized crime, though exact charges remain undisclosed. The arrests come amid mounting criticism of President Erdogan’s government, with critics claiming the detentions are politically motivated attempts to weaken the CHP ahead of future elections. Imamoglu, now jailed, has since been nominated as the CHP’s presidential candidate, and his arrest sparked Turkey’s largest protests in a decade. Observers warn of further instability if the crackdown continues. #Turkey #Erdogan #CHP #Imamoglu #OppositionArrests #TurkeyPolitics #CHPMayors #Adana #Antalya #Adiyaman #EkremImamoglu #ProtestsInTurkey #DemocracyUnderThreat #TurkishElections #Authoritarianism #CorruptionCharges #PoliticalCrackdown #Turkey2028Elections #HumanRights #FreeImamoglu ~HT.410~ED.103~

BREAKING: Iran-Backed Militias Strike U.S Oil Site in Iraq —Kurdistan in Flames, Drone War Escalates

A U.S.-operated oil field in Iraq’s Kurdistan Region has been obliterated by a drone strike — and all signs point to Iran-backed militias. The target: HKN Energy’s Sarsang site in Duhok, now in flames and completely shut down. As smoke rises, so do fears of a wider proxy war unfolding across Iraq. The attack, which Kurdish officials condemned as a “deliberate act of terrorism,” comes amid a stalled oil export system and growing instability. The U.S. has issued a sharp rebuke, demanding Iraq take action. Meanwhile, Baghdad and Erbil are under pressure to respond — fast. Is this the beginning of a new front in Iran’s shadow war with the U.S.? Or a direct message to Washington about who controls Iraq’s energy future? #Iraq #Kurdistan #DroneStrike #IranProxies #MiddleEastCrisis #USInterests #HKN #OilWar #EnergySecurity #IranVsUS #Duhok #Baghdad #ProxyWar #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #OilCrisis ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.420~

Ukraine’s Most DEADLY Response After Failed Peace Talks | Strikes Sochi Killing 1 Civilian & Hits…

In a dramatic escalation, Ukraine launched a wave of drone strikes on southern Russia, targeting Sochi — the famed Black Sea resort city — and its nearby Sirius technological and athletic hub. At least one woman was killed and another seriously injured when drone debris fell in Sochi’s central streets. Meanwhile, another UAV slammed into an oil terminal in Sirius, triggering emergency evacuations of students and tourists. Local sources described scenes of chaos, with air raid sirens blaring and as many as 20 explosions echoing across the city. This latest strike comes on the heels of Russia and Ukraine's third round of peace talks in Istanbul, which failed to secure a ceasefire. Moscow’s proposal for brief humanitarian truces and a major POW exchange involving 1,200 prisoners each was met with skepticism from Kyiv. Tensions remain sky-high as drone warfare escalates far from the battlefield, threatening Russian civilians and infrastructure. #UkraineRussiaWar #SochiAttack #UkraineDrones #BlackSeaStrike #DroneWarfare #SochiExplosion #RussiaUnderAttack #SiriusHub #CiviliansTargeted #RussiaUkraineConflict #PeaceTalksFail #PutinZelensky #IstanbulTalks #UkraineStrikesBack #OilTerminalHit #EvacuationsInSochi #AirRaidSirens #RussiaWarNews #ExplosionsInSochi #GeopoliticalTensions ~HT.318~ED.102~GR.122~

Iran, Russia, China Unite in Nuclear Talks—US Sidelined, EU Threatens Sanctions Showdown in Istanbul

As global tensions rise, Iran hosts trilateral nuclear talks with Russia and China—just days before a critical summit with European powers in Istanbul. The U.S., once central to negotiations, now watches from the sidelines as Tehran rejects direct dialogue. With the 2015 nuclear deal hanging by a thread and “snapback” sanctions looming, the geopolitical stakes have never been higher. Will this new Iran–Russia–China axis reshape the global balance of power? And can Europe force Iran back into compliance—or will diplomacy collapse once again? #Iran #NuclearTalks #ChinaRussiaIran #USIran #SnapbackSanctions #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #IstanbulSummit #IranDeal #RussiaChinaAlliance #JCPOA #BreakingNews #GlobalDiplomacy #IranNuclearDeal #TehranTalks ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.420~

Russia, China, and Iran are set to hold high-level trilateral talks to counter renewed EU threats of snapback sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program.
