Su**ide Bomber Turns Sunday Mass into Blood-soaked Nightmare: Explosion Rip Through Damascus Church

A suicide bomber detonated himself inside the Mar Elias Church in Damascus' Dweila neighborhood during Sunday mass, following a burst of gunfire that sent worshippers into panic.

Witnesses report a gunman opened fire on civilians before entering the church and triggering the deadly blast.

The attack left bodies and debris scattered across the holy site, as smoke rose and residents fled in terror.

Trump Lifts ‘Brytal’, ‘Crippling’ Syria Sanctions | Trump Unlocks Syria’s Economy After Years Of War

In a stunning reversal of longstanding U.S. foreign policy, former President Donald Trump has lifted key sanctions on Syria, ending years of crippling economic isolation. The move comes as part of Trump’s promised Middle East shift, following the fall of Bashar al-Assad and the rise of a new interim government in Damascus led by Ahmed al-Sharaa — a former rebel commander. The U.S. Treasury and State Department jointly announced a sweeping waiver of the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act, unlocking billions in potential investment and opening Syria’s oil, electricity, and financial sectors to international engagement. Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared the relief vital to restoring basic services like water, energy, and sanitation. #SyriaSanctions #TrumpSyria #SanctionsLifted #TrumpMiddleEast #USForeignPolicy #SyriaNews #TrumpNews #DonaldTrump #SyriaCrisis #TrumpAdministration #AssadFall #Damascus #HTS #PostWarSyria #MiddleEastPolitics #CaesarAct #SanctionsRelief #USPolicyShift #BreakingNews #HistoricMove Also Read Lebanon and Syria Agree to Ceasefire Following Two Days of Border Clashes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/lebanon-syria-ceasefire-agreement-border-clashes-011-4097569.html?ref=DMDesc Why Is New Syrian Regime Hunting Down And Killing Alawites Amid Escalating Sectarian Violence In Country? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/why-is-new-syrian-regime-hunting-down-and-killing-alawites-amid-escalating-sectarian-violence-in-cou-4090547.html?ref=DMDesc Syria On Boil: Over 1,000 Dead As Alawite Minority Targeted In 'Revenge Killings' By Current Regime :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syria-on-boil-over-1-000-dead-as-alawite-minority-targeted-in-revenge-killings-by-current-regime-4090369.html?ref=DMDesc

Israel KILLS Top Hezbollah Commander In Lebanon Amid Iran Conflict, Vows More Strikes To Follow [Video]

Israel KILLS Top Hezbollah Commander In Lebanon Amid Iran Conflict, Vows More Strikes To Follow

Amid rising Iran-Israel tensions, the Israeli military has killed senior Hezbollah commander Mohammad Khadr al-Husseini in southern Lebanon, citing an urgent threat to its northern border. The strike follows Hezbollah’s pledge to retaliate against Israeli and U.S. actions. Two other key Hezbollah commanders were also killed earlier this week. Defense Minister Israel Katz warned that Israel’s patience has run out. This comes as Hezbollah, once Tehran’s strongest proxy, reels from leadership losses, financial strain, and disrupted supply lines after Syria’s fall, signaling deep cracks in Iran's regional resistance axis. #IsraelHezbollahConflict #IranIsraelTensions #HezbollahCommanderKilled #LebanonStrike #MiddleEastWar #AxisOfResistance #IDFStrikes #MohammadKhadrAlHusseini #NabatiehStrike #NasrallahKilled #QassemHezbollah #IsraelIranProxyWar #TelAvivWarnings #SouthernLebanonStrike #IranBackedMilitias #IDFAirStrikes #NetanyahuVsHezbollah #KatzWarning #RegionalTensions #BreakingNews Also Read Pakistan's Delicate Diplomatic Balancing Act Amid Iran-Israel Conflict | Analysis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistans-delicate-diplomatic-balancing-act-amid-iran-israel-conflict-analysis-7779185.html?ref=DMDesc Sonia Gandhi Slams Centre’s Silence On Israel-Iran Conflict: 'History Reminds Us That...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sonia-gandhi-slams-centre-s-silence-on-israel-iran-conflict-history-reminds-us-that-7779139.html?ref=DMDesc Ayatollah Khamenei's Existential Crossroads; Iran's Supreme Leader Faces Threat Like Never Before :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ayatollah-khameneis-existential-crossroads-irans-supreme-leader-faces-threat-like-never-before-7778435.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.346~

Houthis Vow to Sink U.S Warships | Iran Blames Israel for 'Great Crime'|Khamenei Warns of Punishment

Tensions in the Middle East are spiraling. Iran has denied launching the missile intercepted by Israel near Eilat, claiming it was fired by Yemen’s Houthi rebels. Meanwhile, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei warns Israel of severe punishment for what he called a “great crime” — referring to Israel and America’s recent strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites. The Houthis have issued direct threats against U.S. warships in the Red Sea, declaring full support for Tehran and vowing retaliation. With Iran’s next missile wave still pending under “Operation True Promise-3,” the region is bracing for a major escalation.

BREAKING: Bodies of 3 Israeli hostages found Dead in Gaza; Chilling Oct 7 abduction Caught on CCTV

Israeli forces have recovered the bodies of three hostages taken during the brutal Hamas-led assault on October 7, 2023. Civilians Ofra Keidar and Yonatan Samerano, along with soldier Shay Levinson, were confirmed dead by the Israeli military. Shockingly, 21-year-old Samerano was reportedly abducted by a UN employee, with CCTV footage showing him being taken alive. The incident has reignited global outrage over the role of international organizations and the ongoing humanitarian disaster in Gaza. Over 55,000 Palestinians have been killed since the war began, and only 20 hostages are believed to be alive.
