Rubio says Israel strike on Syrian military headquarters ‘likely a misunderstanding’

Damascus Bombed, Sweida Burns: U.S. Urges Calm After Israel Strikes Syria’s Military Headquarters

Following a dramatic Israeli airstrike on Syria’s General Staff Headquarters in Damascus, U.S. Senator Marco Rubio called the escalation a “misunderstanding” and claimed de-escalation could be just hours away. The strike came amid sectarian clashes in the southern Syrian city of Sweida, where Israel says it’s intervening to protect the Druze community. With the death toll rising and fears of a broader conflict growing, the U.S. confirmed it is in continuous talks with both Syrian and Israeli officials. Meanwhile, U.S. envoy Tom Barrack condemned violence against civilians and called for immediate dialogue and a lasting ceasefire.

Rubio Meets China's Wang Yi As Trump Tariffs IGNITE Asia Trade WAR | ASEAN Tensions EXPLODE | Video

In a high-stakes meeting amid growing trade hostilities, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio met Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Kuala Lumpur during the East Asia Summit. This marked Rubio's first Asia visit since taking office, aiming to reaffirm U.S. presence in the Indo-Pacific. However, Trump's sudden tariff offensive—slapping 25-40% duties on major Asian economies—has intensified regional friction. China condemned the U.S. move as "bullying behavior," warning nations against cutting Beijing from global supply chains. Rubio also discussed security and tech cooperation with Japanese, South Korean, and Southeast Asian leaders. While Rubio remained tight-lipped during the talks, Wang launched a blistering critique of U.S. policies. Meanwhile, ASEAN ministers voiced alarm over trade disruptions, signaling a tilt toward diversification. With deadlines looming and diplomacy on edge, the clash of giants over Asia’s future has just begun. #Rubio #WangYi #USChinaTensions #TradeWar #ASEAN #IndoPacific #TrumpTariffs #ChinaTrade #AsiaSummit #KualaLumpur #GlobalEconomy #MarcoRubio #ChinaPolicy #USForeignPolicy #TariffWar #BilateralTalks #Geopolitics #SupplyChain #EastAsiaSummit #WTO ~GR.124~HT.408~

‘Dog on the Leash of U.S’: Iran’s Khamenei HUMILIATES Israel; Warns of a BIGGER BLOW if Provoked

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei sharply condemned Israel as a “dog on a leash” of the United States and warned that Iran is ready to deliver a far bigger retaliatory blow if attacked again, following recent US strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites and Iran’s counterattack on a sensitive US base in Qatar.

Houthi Rebels Launch MASSIVE Missile Toward Israel After Syria Strikes | IDF Braces Three-Front War

Yemen's Houthi rebels (Ansarallah) have claimed responsibility for launching another significant missile attack toward southern Israel, triggering massive panic and sounding major air-raid sirens across the region. The group stated the attack was carried out in "solidarity with the people of Gaza." The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the launch and announced that its air defence systems were activated, successfully intercepting the inbound missile before it could hit its target. This latest strike is part of a sustained campaign by the Houthis, who have vowed that such attacks will continue until Israel ends its military offensive and blockade of the Gaza Strip. According to reports, Ansarallah has fired over 50 missiles and drones toward Israel since the conflict resumed, frequently targeting critical infrastructure like the Ben Gurion Airport in previous attempts. This raises the critical question: Is Israel now fighting a three-front war, facing threats from Gaza, the north, and now consistently from Yemen? The attack comes amidst a volatile situation in the wider region. Israel has recently intensified its own strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen in response to their persistent attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea. In a major act of retaliation, the Houthis recently sank the UK-registered Magic Sea ship, a move that dealt a significant blow to global trade and maritime security. This video breaks down the latest missile attack, the successful Israeli interception, and the escalating cycle of violence that is pushing the Middle East to the brink. #YemenStrike #Syriaattacked #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiForces #MiddleEastCrisis #MissileStrike #GazaBlockade #Airstrike #BreakingNews #YemenVsIsrael #BenGurionAirport #DroneAttack #HypersonicMissile #AirportStrike #YemenNews #IsraelNews #DefenseAlert #AirRaid #GlobalTensions Also Read Who Is Sheikh Abubakr Ahmad, the Grand Mufti of India?
