Lindsey Graham to i24NEWS: "We will oppose the F-35 deal."
Members of the U.S. Congress fear that Russia could gain access to sensitive information about the advanced Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II through Turkey.
Israel sent an official delegation to Venezuela following the earthquake, despite the two countries severing ties 17 years ago.
Unlike foreign rescue teams, the Israeli mission was tasked with building a national plan for reconstruction and building demolition. It is headed by Home Front Command Chief of Staff Brig. Gen. Elad Edri.
An estimated 3,000 people were killed, with hundreds still missing. The quakes destroyed entire neighborhoods in the coastal area below Caracas.
NEW: Turkey and Syria are quietly lobbying to reroute the India Middle East Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC) through their territory, replacing Israel as the corridor’s key land bridge to Europe. Their proposal would shift billions of dollars in future trade, infrastructure investment, and strategic influence away from Israel.

U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM):
"U.S. Marines with the Combat Logistics Battalion 8, Littoral Combat Force-24, and U.S. Air Force Contingency Response Element Airmen assigned to the 621st Contingency Response Wing board a U.S. Army CH-47 Chinook helicopter with 1st Battalion 228th Aviation Regiment at Símon Bolívar International Airport, Venezuela, July 3, 2026.
At the direction of SOUTHCOM, U.S. military forces are supporting State Department-led U.S. government relief operations following the devastating earthquakes that struck the nation on June 24, 2026."
The UAE DID NOT ATTEND the funeral of the Islamic regime in Iran, as many have confirmed. On 28 February, the UAE responded with its policy of ZERO TOLERANCE FOR TERRORISM. We all saw that the UAE stood firmly against terrorism and called evil by its name. Some countries chose a different path, showing up to honor a leader who was responsible for years of regional aggression, the deaths of over 40,000 Iranians this January, the planning of the 7 October attack in Israel, and whose proxies brought suffering to Gaza and Lebanon, while more than 500,000 Syrians were killed.
HISTORY WILL REMEMBER who STOOD AGAINST TERROR and who chose symbolism over principle. The UAE CHOSE its side.
