Stealth, deception and bunker-busters: Inside the US raid on Iran
The US says it carried out a massive airstrike on Iran’s nuclear facilities using seven B-2 bombers and cruise missiles from a submarine, all under the radar.
The aircraft flew 18 hours from Missouri, supported by deception tactics including fake Pacific deployments to distract global attention.
The Pentagon says 14 bunker-busting bombs hit Fordo and Natanz, while Tomahawks struck Isfahan.
No Iranian defences engaged, and Israel’s control of the airspace was cited as a key advantage.
The full damage is still being assessed, but the US calls it a tactical success.

Belarus dissidents abroad: ‘We’re not safe, even outside the country’
Belarusian opposition figures living in exile are under pressure from Lukashenko’s government, which is accused of threatening them and their families.
Some say their old homes were vandalized, others get contacted with “offers” to cooperate.
Trials in absentia have targeted more than 200 exiles. The regime has labeled many “extremists” or “terrorists,” cutting off their ties with loved ones back home.
Analysts warn that this “war of attrition” aims to exhaust and isolate critics across borders.

Controversial bra rule sparks backlash at Nigerian university
A viral video from Olabisi Onabanjo University in Ogun State shows staff members physically checking female students before exams to enforce a no-bra, no-entry rule.
Critics have likened it to sexual assault and called for legal action.
Though the school has not officially responded, the student union president confirmed the policy is part of a long-standing dress code.
The rule prohibits any clothing that could “cause lust” and aims to create a “respectful environment”—a justification many find outdated and offensive.

North Korea to assist in Russian war recovery, sparking global backlash
North Korea will send more than 10,000 workers—including military units—to help rebuild Russia’s Kursk region, according to Russian officials.
Sergei Shoigu framed it as symbolic solidarity, but Seoul, Tokyo and Washington condemned the plan as a violation of international sanctions.
Reports suggest Pyongyang is exchanging labour and military support for cash and access to Russian weapons technology.
South Korean sources say at least 1,000 North Korean soldiers have already died in Russia.

Moscow’s Middle East gamble backfires amid Israel-Iran war
Russia hoped to benefit from the Israel-Iran escalation—oil revenues, global distraction, diplomatic clout.
But the situation is turning sour. Political analysts in Moscow warn of reputational damage after failing to stop Israel’s strike on Iran, a country it recently signed a strategic deal with.
Russia’s partnership with Iran is non-military, limiting its leverage. And having lost Assad in Syria last year, the Kremlin fears Iran may be next.
Meanwhile, Russian state media now admit that “massive changes” in global politics could have real domestic consequences.

Trump opposed Israeli plan to target Iran’s top leader, say US officials
Three US officials told CBS News that President Trump opposed an Israeli plan to kill Ayatollah Khamenei, Iran’s Supreme Leader, during the ongoing conflict.
While the Israeli government hasn't confirmed the report, Netanyahu said in an interview that Israel “will do what we need to do”.
Israel has focused on nuclear scientists and military leaders, reportedly avoiding political figures.
Trump has continued to stress that the US is not behind the Israeli attacks, though he warned Iran of “unprecedented” consequences if it retaliates.
The nuclear talks scheduled for Sunday were cancelled after Iran refused to participate amid ongoing airstrikes.

Trump-Musk alliance collapses after spending bill fallout and online feud
Donald Trump has publicly ended his political relationship with Elon Musk, saying on NBC News: “I would assume so” when asked if they were done.
He criticized Musk’s attacks on the tax and spending bill and accused him of being “disrespectful to the office of the president.”
The feud flared up when Musk posted (and later deleted) a message implying Trump had connections to Jeffrey Epstein — claims rejected by Epstein’s lawyer.
Musk had earlier warned he might back candidates opposing Trump’s allies in the midterms. Trump responded with a threat to pull federal contracts from Musk’s companies.

Trump’s Iran stance blurs as GOP tensions rise
The Israeli strikes on Iran have revealed a foreign policy dilemma for Donald Trump.
Though he once styled himself a peacemaker, his reaction to the deadly operation has been erratic—celebrating Iranian deaths while calling for negotiations.
Republican voices are clashing: Speaker Mike Johnson backs Israel fully, while pro-Trump figures question whether “America First” means staying out.
Trump’s administration has so far avoided direct involvement, but pressure is growing as US troops remain stationed across the region.
What began as Netanyahu’s war may quickly become Trump’s crisis.

‘Poo pills’ may replace antibiotics in future, say UK researchers
A clinical trial in London is testing an unusual but promising therapy: pills made from donated faeces to treat drug-resistant infections.
These capsules pass through the stomach to the intestines, where they release healthy bacteria that compete with and possibly eliminate superbugs.
Doctors report that patients in the trial not only tolerated the treatment well but also showed signs of long-term changes in gut flora.
Experts believe this could pave the way for microbiome-based medicines to replace antibiotics in certain cases.
