Turkey On HIGH Alert: Syria SHUTS Border With Turkey As Massive Wildfires Rage Just 4KM From Border

Syria has shut the Kassab border crossing with Turkey as massive wildfires edge dangerously close to the Turkish province of Hatay. Sparked amid severe drought and recent sectarian unrest, the fires have destroyed swathes of Syria’s green belt and now threaten cross-border regions. Firefighters from Turkey, Jordan, and Iraq joined Syrian civil defense teams to battle the blaze. With Attera burning just 4 km from the Turkish border, Ankara is on high alert. Officials say the spread is due to extreme heat and wind—not arson. #SyriaWildfires #TurkeyBorder #SyriaCrisis #KassabCrossing #Hatay #MiddleEastNews #RedAlert #FireCrisis #DroughtDisaster #ClimateEmergency #Attera #Zahia #CivilDefense #WildfireAlert #TurkeySyria #RegionalTension #ForestFires #GreenBeltLoss #EnvironmentalDisaster #Firefighters #BorderCrisis #BreakingNews #SyriaTurmoil #ClimateImpact #Deforestation #IllegalLogging #Heatwave #WildfireSpread #EasternMediterranean #CrossBorderThreat Also Read Turkey Arrests LeMan Magazine Editor-in-Chief Over Prophet Mohammed Cartoon :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/turkey-arrests-leman-magazine-editor-in-chief-over-prophet-mohammed-cartoon-7799895.html?ref=DMDesc Syria's Government and Kurdish Forces Still Disagree on Merging Plans After Recent Talks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrias-government-kurds-odds-merging-forces-us-envoy-011-7796579.html?ref=DMDesc Turkey Junks Claims Of Its Involvement In Maintenance Of Crashed Ahmedabad-London Air India Dreamliner :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/turkey-junks-claims-of-its-involvement-in-maintenance-of-crashed-ahmedabad-london-air-india-dreamlin-4182063.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.102~

Trump & Netanyahu Discuss New Ways of 'THROWING' Gazans out of Palestine at White House Dinner [Video]

Trump & Netanyahu Discuss New Ways of 'THROWING' Gazans out of Palestine at White House Dinner

On July 7, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump hosted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House for a private dinner, where they discussed a controversial proposal to relocate Palestinians from Gaza. The plan, dubbed the "free choice" initiative, suggests that Palestinians could choose to leave Gaza for other countries. Netanyahu emphasized that Israel and the U.S. are working with other nations to offer Palestinians a "better future." However, neighboring countries like Egypt and Jordan have firmly rejected the idea, citing concerns over regional stability and sovereignty. This proposal has sparked widespread criticism, with many viewing it as a form of ethnic cleansing disguised as a humanitarian solution. #Trump #Netanyahu #Gaza #Palestinians #RelocationPlan #MiddleEast #InternationalLaw #HumanRights #EthnicCleansing #PeaceProcess

U.S Fires 150 THAAD Missiles During Iran War, Burning Through $1.9 billion in Just 12 days [Video]

U.S Fires 150 THAAD Missiles During Iran War, Burning Through $1.9 billion in Just 12 days

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. #THAAD #IranIsraelWar #MissileDefense #Pentagon #USMilitary #IranMissiles #DefenseNews #MiddleEastConflict #ChinaThreat #IsraelUnderAttack #BallisticMissiles #MissileStrike #USvsIran #MilitaryBudget #Geopolitics

NATO DIVIDED: Germany, France, UK Join Hands On Palestine | Europe’s Big Three Turn Against Israel?

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. #NATO #IsraelPalestine #GazaCrisis #EuropeE3 #Germany #France #UK #Merz #Macron #Starmer #USIsraelAlliance #PalestineRecognition #MiddleEastPolicy #GazaWar #DiplomaticRift #NATOShowdown #HumanitarianCrisis #E3VsUS #GazaAid #Palestine #Geopolitics #GlobalDiplomacy #ProtestsForGaza #Netanyahu #Trump #USForeignPolicy #MiddleEastConflict #IsraelVsPalestine #GazaBlockade #E3Pressure #NATODivisions #BreakingNews Also Read France's Recognition of Palestine Could Influence Future Middle East Dynamics :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/france-recognition-state-palestine-middle-east-dynamics-011-7810889.html?ref=DMDesc 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 ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.103~
