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.

Shocking live footage captured by Kurdish media outlet Rudaw and Al Jazeera shows the exact moment an Israeli airstrike hits the Syrian Army Headquarters in Damascus. Viewers watched in real-time as a reporter screamed and ran for cover, while a massive cloud of smoke engulfed the skyline.
The target appears to be the Syrian General Staff building, a critical military facility. This dramatic escalation comes amid heightened regional tensions, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned of operations to protect Israel’s northern front — and specifically addressed the Druze population to stop crossing borders.

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?
