Kremlin SLAMS Trump’s 'Very Unhappy With Call To Putin' Comment | Russia Vows Victory In Ukraine

In a powerful display of Russian resolve, President Vladimir Putin reaffirmed Moscow’s strategic objectives during a one-hour phone call with US President Donald Trump.

He added that Russia is paying close attention to Trump’s statements but is prioritizing long-term national interests. The call also covered cooperation in energy and space sectors, as well as Middle East stability. Putin reiterated that Russia would not compromise on neutralizing the threats that triggered the special military operation. The Kremlin described the conversation as “concrete and businesslike,” signaling that Moscow will continue to engage diplomatically, but without sacrificing its core objectives.

Saudi Arabia Ditch Trump For Putin | MBS Wants Russia In Middle East Not USA | Here's Why!!!

In a striking display of diplomatic unity, Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan declared that Riyadh welcomes Russia’s role in Middle Eastern affairs during a high-profile press conference with Russian FM Sergey Lavrov in Moscow. The comment signals a major shift in Gulf geopolitics, showing Saudi Arabia's increasing tilt toward Moscow as regional dynamics evolve. Lavrov and Farhan met at the Russian MFA Reception House, emphasizing cooperation on regional security, energy, and investment. Farhan praised Russia’s involvement as “always welcome,” underlining a growing partnership despite global Western efforts to isolate Moscow. The press conference further confirms Russia's expanding clout in the Gulf as the Kremlin strengthens alliances outside the West. The talks come amid heightened tensions in the region, and suggest Saudi Arabia is now playing a more independent, multi-vector diplomatic game — balancing its ties between Washington, Moscow, and Beijing. #SaudiArabia #Russia #Lavrov #FaisalBinFarhan #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #Putin #RussiaSaudiTies #Diplomacy #Moscow #SaudiFM #RussiaNews #GulfPolitics #BRICS #SaudiRussiaRelations #MiddleEastPolicy #EnergyPolitics #GlobalSouth #ForeignAffairs #WorldNews ~HT.410~ED.420~

U.S. Braces for July 4 Terror Attack: FBI & DHS on HIGH ALERT as Iran-Backed Revenge Threat Looms [Video]

U.S. Braces for July 4 Terror Attack: FBI & DHS on HIGH ALERT as Iran-Backed Revenge Threat Looms

Ahead of the United States' Independence Day celebrations, federal agencies have issued a serious warning about potential terrorist attacks, specifically from lone wolf actors. This elevated threat level is a direct consequence of escalating tensions in the Middle East, where the U.S. has become more involved in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict. The situation intensified after U.S. B-2 Spirit bombers conducted a major operation on June 22, dropping heavy bunker buster bombs on three of Iran's nuclear facilities in a strategic move to aid Israel. In response to the potential for retaliatory attacks, security has been visibly bolstered across the country. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has identified lone wolves as the "greatest threat" to July 4th events, announcing an increased presence of State Police and the deployment of National Guard units at major transportation hubs, bridges, and tunnels throughout New York City. Authorities are also closely monitoring social media for any signs of cyber threats or domestic terror plots. The threat is not limited to New York. An FBI bulletin has specifically warned that San Francisco's famous fireworks show could be a target for a mass casualty attack. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has officially raised the national threat level to "Heightened" and stated it will remain in effect until September 22, citing the direct link to the escalating conflict between Iran and the U.S. While no specific or credible plots have been identified, federal and state agencies remain on high alert to counter any security situation that may arise during the holiday. #USTerrorAlert #July4th #USIranConflict #BreakingNews #WorldNews #OneindiaNews #KathyHochul #LoneWolf #MiddleEast #DHS ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~

Gaza Attacked from Sky: 94 Killed in Overnight Strikes— Aid Seekers Bombed, Children Burned in Tents [Video]

Gaza Attacked from Sky: 94 Killed in Overnight Strikes— Aid Seekers Bombed, Children Burned in Tents

The Gaza crisis has reached a horrifying new level. Overnight Israeli airstrikes killed 94 Palestinians, including 45 people waiting for humanitarian aid. Dozens were burned alive in tents in Muwasi, and 15 more were killed when a school sheltering displaced families was hit in Gaza City. Since October 2023, Gaza’s Health Ministry reports over 57,000 Palestinians killed — more than half of them women and children. Over 90% of Gaza's 2.3 million people are now displaced, with hundreds of thousands facing starvation. The international community remains divided, as Israel has not commented on the latest wave of strikes. Meanwhile, talks of a potential 60-day ceasefire continue with no resolution in sight. This is not just a war — it’s a humanitarian catastrophe. #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #GazaUnderAttack #HumanitarianCrisis #GazaAirstrikes #CeasefireNow #StopTheWar #MiddleEastCrisis #WarCrimes #SaveGaza #IDF #Hamas #UN #BreakingNews #GazaChildren #GazaBombing #FreePalestine Also Read Middle East: UN Labels Gaza 'The Hungriest Place On Earth' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-un-labels-gaza-the-hungriest-place-on-earth-4168609.html?ref=DMDesc Missile from Yemen Disrupts Flights in Israel Ahead of Key Vote on Gaza War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/missile-from-yemen-disrupts-flights-in-israel-ahead-of-key-vote-on-gaza-war-4143509.html?ref=DMDesc Immense Pressure From Families Of Hostages: Netanyahu Says Israel Has To Continue Fighting In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/immense-pressure-from-families-of-hostages-netanyahu-says-israel-has-to-continue-fighting-in-gaza-4128785.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.274~ED.420~

Netanyahu DEFIES Trump? Israel REJECTS Hamas' SHOCKING Demands | Gaza Deal on Brink of Collapse? [Video]

Netanyahu DEFIES Trump? Israel REJECTS Hamas' SHOCKING Demands | Gaza Deal on Brink of Collapse?

Israel has firmly rejected Hamas' proposed changes to the Qatari-mediated ceasefire deal, calling them "unacceptable." Despite this, Prime Minister Netanyahu has directed Israel’s negotiating team to proceed to Qatar on Sunday for proximity talks, as part of the ongoing U.S.-brokered effort led by President Donald Trump. The original deal envisions a 60-day ceasefire, release of hostages, and negotiations to end the 21-month-long war. Hamas had earlier described its response as “positive,” signaling openness to immediate talks. However, Israel’s statement indicates a stark gap between the two sides. Trump, who termed the ceasefire proposal as his “final offer,” remains optimistic, though tensions around the edits by Hamas raise serious doubts. The move comes amid intensifying international pressure and rising death tolls in Gaza. The talks in Qatar may be the last viable opportunity to reach a breakthrough—or confirm the collapse of yet another peace effort.TAGS #IsraelHamasCeasefire #Netanyahu #TrumpGazaDeal #QatarTalks #MiddleEastPeace #GazaCrisis #HostageRelease #TrumpFinalProposal #HamasIsraelWar #CeasefireUpdate #BreakingNews #IsraelRejectsDeal #QatarMediation #ProximityTalks #GazaHostages #PeaceInMiddleEast #USMediation #NetanyahuNews #HamasStatement #WarUpdate

Hezbollah Chief Sheikh Naim Qassem WARNS of Continued Resistance until Israel’s COMPLETE DESTRUCTION

Hezbollah Deputy Chief Naim Qassem has firmly rejected any normalization deal with Israel, vowing continued resistance until full Israeli withdrawal and ceasefire conditions are met. Speaking on the final day of Ashura commemorations, Qassem said defending Lebanon’s sovereignty requires no foreign approval and warned against disarmament under U.S. pressure. While open to dialogue, he stressed that any peace must respect Lebanon’s dignity and resistance. The remarks come amid rising regional tensions and renewed calls for a security agreement. #Hezbollah #NaimQassem #Lebanon #Ashura2025 #IsraelLebanon #MiddleEastConflict #NoNormalization #Resistance #LebanonSovereignty #QassemSpeaks #LebaneseDefense #RegionalTensions #CeasefireNow #USPressure #OccupiedTerritories #PeaceWithDignity #RejectSurrender #FreeLebanon #IsraelOccupation #HezbollahStance #AxisOfResistance #MiddleEastPolitics #SecurityDeal #DisarmamentDebate #NationalDialogue #HezbollahIsrael #BreakingNews #LebanonNews 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 Homeland Security Deports Professor Dr. Rasha Alawieh for Supporting Hezbollah Leader :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/homeland-security-deports-professor-supporting-hezbollah-leader-011-4097539.html?ref=DMDesc Hundreds of Thousands Attend Funeral of Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/funeral-of-hezbollah-leader-hassan-nasrallah-beirut-011-4078987.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~ED.103~

WATCH: Israeli Drone STRIKE Captured On Video | Target Vehicle OBLITERATED In South Beirut Blast [Video]

WATCH: Israeli Drone STRIKE Captured On Video | Target Vehicle OBLITERATED In South Beirut Blast

Chilling new video captures the exact moment an Israeli drone strike destroyed a vehicle on a busy civilian road in Khaldeh, south of Beirut. The targeted attack, which took place amidst regular traffic, resulted in the death of one individual and left three others injured. The incident has sent shockwaves through the region and raised fears of a wider conflict. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) swiftly claimed responsibility for the strike. In a public statement, the IDF claimed it had successfully targeted and eliminated a militant affiliated with Iran’s Quds Force. According to Israeli military sources, the individual killed was deeply involved in smuggling weapons into the region and was actively planning terror attacks against both Israeli civilians and military forces. However, neither Israeli nor Lebanese officials have officially released the name or confirmed the identity of the person killed. This strike is not an isolated event but the latest in a series of escalating Israeli military actions in Lebanon following the collapse of a ceasefire weeks ago. On July 2, another Israeli airstrike in a civilian zone in Nabatieh injured two people, including a child. Furthermore, Israeli troops recently conducted a raid in the Al-Adisa area, targeting Hezbollah fighters. This pattern of conflict was also seen on June 28, when an Israeli drone strike in Kounine killed three people, including senior Hezbollah leader Hassan Hammoudi. These continuous strikes are fueling a volatile situation on the Israel-Lebanon border. #Israel #Lebanon #DroneStrike #Beirut #Khaldeh #IDF #QudsForce #Hezbollah #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #PressTV #UAVStrike #CivilianCasualties #Netanyahu #Iran #LebanonConflict #TerrorPlot #IDFStrike #BeirutBlast #SouthBeirut #Airstrike #IDFOperations #GazaWar #IsraelIran #ConflictZone #LiveFire #LebanonNews #DroneFootage #HezbollahTarget #StrikeAlert #CeasefireCollapse ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~
