The discussions come as the Trump administration intensifies pressure on Havana, but officials say the renewed war with Iran makes any action against Cuba unlikely for now.

At 3 p.m. ET, U.S. forces launched operations for a second wave of strikes today against Iran.

The strikes are targeting Iranian military capabilities used to threaten vessels freely transiting through the Strait of Hormuz, an international waterway vital to global commerce.

The U.S. military is holding Iran accountable at the Commander in Chief's direction.

Epstein clearly had connections to the highest levels of Israeli intelligence.

Epstein seemed to be connected to the elements of the Israeli deep state that were left of center. I've always found that fascinating.

It wasn't like he was super connected to the right of center of Israeli politics.

Szijjártó — one of Orbán's closest allies and the face of Hungary's pro-China foreign policy for over a decade — will lead BYD's external relations and new business development at the group level.

He was the key political facilitator behind BYD's massive Hungarian investments: an electric bus factory in Komárom, Europe's first BYD passenger car plant in Szeged, and a European HQ and R&D center in Budapest — all backed by significant state subsidies.

Fidesz is framing it as "the most significant Hungarian corporate leadership position in the world."

New PM Péter Magyar called it what it looks like: "From now on the actual employer pays him, not Hungarian taxpayers."

The idea that Donald Trump is being blackmailed is crazy to me. I see the way that he processes this stuff.

The idea that he picks up the phone with anybody and says, "Hey, I'm going to take orders from you"—no.

That's just not how Donald Trump operates.

If the Iranian people want to rise up and change their government, that's up to them.

But we're not going to send 150,000 ground troops in order to accomplish a change in a regime unless the people on the ground themselves want to accomplish that outcome.

Now, we're not going to send the troops in regardless, but to propose sending in the troops, you're basically saying that the U.S. military should do the job for the Iranian people.

We're not in that business anymore. We're just not.

Kyiv’s government reshuffle has brought an end to Mykhailo Fedorov’s tenure as Ukraine’s Defence Minister, concluding the service of one of the country’s most prominent technology-focused reformers.

Fedorov entered the ministry with a reputation for delivering results through innovation and digital transformation.

His priorities included accelerating drone production, digitizing defence procurement, strengthening domestic defence technology, improving air defence, and using battlefield data to support faster and more effective decision-making.

During his tenure, the Ministry of Defence advanced procurement reforms, expanded cooperation with Ukraine’s growing defence technology sector, increased the use of data-driven planning, and continued efforts to improve transparency while reducing bureaucratic delays.

I've never seen a single piece of credible evidence Trump engaged in wrongdoing with minors.

When Trump says "the hoax," that's what he's talking about, is this Democratic idea that he somehow was a pedophile.

It's absurd. There's no evidence for it.

I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that there have been people within the Israeli government who are trying to actually shift us away from that policy because they want to continue the military campaign.

There are some people within their system, we know beyond a shadow of a doubt, who are manipulating and trying to change American public opinion to keep the war going on indefinitely.

Again, not towards any objective, but just indefinitely.

There's a lot of talk about how much is the Israeli government influencing American politics, and there are certainly certain people within the Israeli government who hate the deal.

We see exact evidence. There was a Times story that came out yesterday that basically said there are certain influencers in America who are being paid in order to attack the deal.

It's a country of 9 million people. We have 330 million people. And so, of course, they're going to try to persuade Americans.

They're going to try to move Americans in one direction or another.

I think the Israelis are definitely more effective at it than most.

We absolutely screwed up the communications of the Epstein files. We just did.

But do I think the reason we screwed up the communications is because we were trying to hide something? No.

I'll go to my deathbed believing there's a story there, but I can't prove it.

And I promise you there's not some document that, at least I'm hiding, that allows us to prove exactly what was going on.

1- Seizing Kharg Island (Iran's main oil export hub) using US troops.

2- Bombing Pickaxe Mountain — a deeply fortified tunnel complex linked to nuclear work that the US hasn't yet targeted.

3- Expanding airstrikes to include energy sites.

Trump hasn't made a final decision.

On Pickaxe Mountain: The tunnels sit 300–475 feet deep in granite — potentially beyond the reach of US bunker-busters.

Rosatom confirmed Oleksandr Yakovlev and his driver were killed.

Rosatom chief Likhachev called it "a deliberate act of terrorism by the Kyiv regime" and said Russia's political leadership has been informed.

Yakovlev stayed after the 2022 occupation, worked under Rosatom, and took Russian citizenship.

This follows a pattern.

Ukrainian intelligence killed ZNPP's security chief in a car bomb in 2024 and claimed responsibility.

Outgoing Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov confirmed the test while summarizing his tenure.

He said the project was developed under the Ministry of Defence's responsibility, with the technical requirements fundamentally revised — accuracy maximized and cost reduced by 30%.

Fedorov did not name the missile.

Militarnyi speculates it may be the Sapsan operational-tactical missile complex, which reportedly entered serial production in 2025, rather than the privately developed FP-7 or FP-9 ballistic missiles from Fire Point.

Ukraine's Defence Procurement Agency has signed long-term contracts with domestic cruise and ballistic missile manufacturers — with deliveries expected to begin partially this year and the rest in 2027.
