Israeli missiles hit site in Iran

Israeli missiles have hit a site in Iran, according to the US broadcaster ABC News, which cited an unnamed senior US official.The Iranian state television reported explosions in Isfahan, as air defences were activated and flights across several areas including Tehran and Isfahan were suspended.There were no reports of casualties. Nor was there an official response from Iran.Israel promised to respond after Iran last Saturday launched a barrage of drones and missiles on the country, after a suspected Israeli strike on Iran’s consulate compound in Damascus killed a high-ranking commander.There have also been reports of explosions in Syria and Iraq.The United States and a number of European countries had been calling on Israel not to respond to the Iranian attack.Isfahan is considered a strategically important city and one that is host to several important sites, including military research and development sites, as well as bases. The nearby city of Natanz is the location of one of Iran’s nuclear enrichment sites.Commercial flights began diverting their routes early on Friday morning over western Iran without explanation as the semi-official Fars news agency in Iran said there had been “explosions” heard over the city of Isfahan.

Trump and Biden Clash Amid Ongoing Legal Drama

In a dramatic twist of political and legal narratives, the ongoing criminal trial of former President Donald Trump has become a focal point of contention between him and current President Joe Biden. Trump, facing charges in an unprecedented case, has vehemently argued that it is Biden who 'should be in jail' and 'on trial,' pointing fingers at the Biden administration for what he perceives as grave injustices. His comments came as he addressed the media, emphasizing the global attention on the New York case against him, suggesting it tarnishes the image of American democracy.Meanwhile, President Biden, seemingly unphased by the accusations, took a lighter approach during a campaign swing in Pennsylvania. Speaking to a crowd at a United Steelworkers union event, Biden made a quip about Trump being 'busy right now,' a clear jab at his legal troubles. This exchange highlights the deepening rift between the two political figures, underscoring the polarized nature of current American politics.Adding another layer to the saga, America First Legal, a conservative-leaning organization, has initiated a lawsuit against the Biden administration. The lawsuit alleges illegal destruction of documents that could potentially impact Trump's trial in Florida, suggesting a complex web of legal and political maneuvers.The back-and-forth between Trump and Biden, set against the backdrop of legal battles and allegations, paints a vivid picture of the challenges facing American democracy. As both sides of the political spectrum mobilize, the implications of these events reach far beyond the courtroom, hinting at the underlying tensions that continue to shape the political landscape in the United States.As the world watches, the unfolding drama between Trump and Biden not only captivates but also raises questions about the future of political discourse and accountability in America. With each development, the nation is reminded of the enduring impact of these high-profile clashes on the fabric of American society.

Iran Threatens Israel With Nuclear War

Iran has warned Israel it is likely to review its nuclear stance if its atomic facilities are threatened, as tensions rise following the Islamic republic’s weekend drone and missile attack on Israel.Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said on Thursday that Tehran may “reconsider” its nuclear policy, which it has long insisted is purely peaceful but which western powers say has put it on the threshold of becoming a weapons state.The warning was issued as the US and UK announced new sanctions on Iran’s drone programme in response to Saturday’s strike on Israel.“Reconsidering the nuclear doctrine and policies of the Islamic republic of Iran . . . is probable and imaginable, if the fake Zionist regime threatens to attack our country’s nuclear centres,” said Major General Ahmad Haq Talab, who oversees the security of Iran’s nuclear installations.His comments were published in the semi-official Tasnim news agency, which is affiliated with the Revolutionary Guards, Iran’s most powerful military force.Regime hardliners have previously threatened that, during periods of heightened tensions with the west, Iran could withdraw from the non-proliferation treaty, which governs countries’ nuclear facilities. Haq Talab warned Israel that any aggression against Iran’s facilities would be reciprocated at Israel’s nuclear weapon sites — which the Jewish state has never acknowledged possessing.Israel has pledged to respond to last weekend’s Iranian attack, in which Tehran fired more than 300 missiles and drones.That assault prompted Washington on Thursday to announce sanctions on 16 individuals and two companies that aid the production of unmanned aerial vehicles, such as drones, in co-ordination with measures announced by the UK. “We are committed to acting collectively to increase economic pressure on Iran,” US President Joe Biden said, adding that his administration “will not hesitate to take all necessary action” to hold Tehran accountable.

Turkish President Says Israel Is "Worse Than Hitler"

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused Israel of outdoing Adolf Hitler by killing 14,000 children in Gaza.Speaking to a meeting of his Justice and Development (AK) Party legislators in the Turkish parliament, Erdogan said that the Palestinian cause has given his life meaning, according to Anadolu news agency.“As long as God grants me life, I will continue to defend the struggle of Palestine, and will be the voice of the oppressed Palestinian people,” the Turkish leader said.“Israel has already outdone Hitler…We stood up and said Hamas is not a terrorist organization. It is a resistance group.”He also compared the struggle of Hamas to the Turkish war of independence (1919-1922) and reminded the MPs that he had stood up for the Palestinian militant group at the 2009 World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.“When no one else would speak, we stood up and said: ‘Hamas is not a terrorist organization, but a resistance group.’ We presented maps at the UN showing how Israel has gradually occupied the lands of Palestine over the past 70 years,” he said.Erdogan accused Israel of committing massacres in both Gaza and the West Bank that are “marks of shame in human history,” with “unconditional support” from the West.

Russia asks United Nations to consider sanctioning Israel

Russia’s permanent representative to the UN Vasily Nebenzia has called on the United Nations to consider imposing sanctions on Israel over its non-compliance with obligatory resolutions passed by the Security Council.He noted that UNSC Resolution 2728 demanded a ceasefire in Gaza during Ramadan, and this had not been implemented by Israel.“We remind you once again that non-compliance with mandatory Security Council resolutions must lead to sanctions against violators. We believe that the Council should consider this issue without delay,” Nebenzia said on Thursday during a UN Security Council meeting.French Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourne also called for sanctions on Israel earlier this month. In February, Paris sanctioned 28 Israeli nationals, though the French government has not published their names.The Hamas ceasefire resolution was adopted by the Security Council on March 25 in a vote of 14 in favor to none against, with the US abstaining. The document demanded a ceasefire in Gaza during Ramadan, the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages, and for humanitarian access to Gaza to be ensured.The delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza is nearly impossible at the moment, Nebenzia said, pointing to data from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, which demonstrates that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are currently blocking half of the humanitarian convoys heading to the region.
