The Houthis threatened global shipping in the past. This is not a new threat.
Iran is in the middle of it. Iran is the troublemaker.

A fresh CENTCOM video appears to show a U.S. strike hitting what looks like empty aerial-bomb casings or similar scrap.
Analysts geolocated the impact site to the military section of Bushehr airport in Iran.
Satellite imagery shows the empty casings have been sitting in that exact spot for about 15 years.

A new poll shows support for the Iran war is slipping even among Trump's MAGA base.
The share of MAGA voters who think the war is worth the economic cost fell from 50% in May to 37% in July, while more now say the U.S. should only stay involved if costs don't rise further, or end the war altogether.
Rising gas prices, U.S. military casualties, and concerns about the economy appear to be driving the decline.

Ukraine Is Burning Down the Russian Amazon
Ukrainian long-range drones have hit four major Wildberries warehouses โ Russia's biggest online marketplace, often called the "Russian Amazon" โ in under a week.
Ukrainian long-range drones have hit four major Wildberries warehouses โ Russia's biggest online marketplace, often called the "Russian Amazon" โ in under a week.
Kyiv frames the sites as logistics chains supplying sanctioned components for Russian drone production.
Moscow and Wildberries call them ordinary commercial facilities with civilian workers.
Around 8 killed and dozens injured across the first wave alone, plus more casualties in the southern strikes.
Kim, the CEO, called it a "terrible night" and announced payouts to families of the dead.
Sellers on the platform are panicking about inventory losses, especially since Wildberries updated its terms in early July to treat drone strikes as force majeure โ excluding liability for lost goods.
Targeted sites:
1- Elektrostal, Moscow region Size: ~188,000 mยฒ
2- Kotovsk, Tambov region Size: ~108,000 mยฒ
3- Krasnodar, Krasnodar Krai region Size: ~150,000 mยฒ
4- Nevinnomyssk, Stavropol Krai region Size: ~120,000 mยฒ
Total area: ~566,000 mยฒ (Equivalent to around 79 football pitches).
Analysts say losses "could reach hundreds of billions of rubles."
Western outlets estimate ยฃ1โ1.5 billion+ so far.

Greece is expected to approve a โฌ3 billion Israeli air defense package as the core of its new "Achilles' Shield" integrated defense network.
The system will combine Barak MX, David's Sling, and SPYDER air defense systems with Greece's F-35s, F-16 Vipers, Belharra frigates, and Patriot batteries into a single command network capable of countering aircraft, ballistic missiles, drones, and cruise missiles, marking one of Greece's largest military modernization efforts in decades.

EUโs Kaja Kallas:
We will stand by Ukraine united and in solidarity for as long as it takes. We see it with clear eyes: Russia is an existential threat for our countries in Europe.
We are already faced with Russia's hybrid actions, and therefore determined to increase our defense readiness.
I ask you to join our calls to Russia to stop the killing in Ukraine and engage in talks genuinely to reach a ceasefire and then just and lasting peace.

Palestinian Minister Hamad:
Settler violence has reached extreme levels, attacks on homes, farmlands, people carried out in broad daylight with almost no consequences.
We recorded in 2025 more than 13,000 settler violence attacks in one year, which means some villages in the West Bank may face two attacks from settlers in broad daylight in a single day.

Palestinian Minister Hamad:
Our government is confronting a deliberate policy of financial restrictions.
Israel continues to withhold Palestinian clearance revenues, funds that legally belong to our people, undermining our ability to pay salaries, sustain services, and maintain our institutions.
For the last 14 months, we have received nothing from our clearance revenues, and our civil employees have been paid in half for the last five years. Despite these pressures, our government continues to function and deliver.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has instructed American diplomats to reassure allies that the U.S. does not have a "kill switch" over its technology after temporary restrictions on Anthropic's AI models fueled global concerns.
The cable urges diplomats to promote U.S. AI as the most reliable option and discourage countries from pursuing independent "sovereign AI" systems, though European officials remain skeptical that U.S. tech access couldn't be restricted again.

DETAILS: Trump has issued very similar (and often stronger) threats against Iranian bridges and power plants, all tied to the Strait of Hormuz.
The escalation history:
The escalation history:
March 2026: 48-hour deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait or face power plant destruction "starting with the biggest one first".
Early April: "Bridges next, then Electric Power Plants!" โ after the B1 bridge in Karaj had already been hit.
April 5 (Easter Sunday): The peak โ "Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell โ JUST WATCH!".
April 6โ7: Trump floated "complete demolition" of every bridge and power plant in a single night; "a whole civilization will die tonight".
What actually happened: The all-out nationwide destruction never came.
Deadlines kept slipping into mediated talks (via Pakistan, Oman, Egypt, Tรผrkiye).
