Putin’s First-Ever 'Anti-Iran' Shift After Call With Trump | Putin Ditches Iran, Houthis For Trump?

Putin made a significant geopolitical move following his phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump, signaling a potential shift away from Iran and the Houthis. The Kremlin’s readout of the call emphasized discussions on Middle East stability and nuclear non-proliferation but did not explicitly mention Iran. Meanwhile, the White House stated that both leaders agreed Iran must never be in a position to destroy Israel. This marks a rare moment where Putin appears to align with Trump's stance on Iran, raising questions about Moscow’s future ties with Tehran and the Houthis. #TrumpPutin #Trump #Putin #DonaldTrump #VladimirPutin #TrumpPutinCall #PutinTrumpMeeting #MiddleEast #TrumpNews #PutinOnTrump #TrumpPutinTalks #TrumpMiddleEastPolicy #TrumpRussia #TrumpUkraineWar #TrumpPutinDeal Also Read Federal Judge Blocks Trump Administration From Banning Transgender People From Military Service :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/federal-judge-blocks-trump-administration-from-banning-transgender-people-from-military-service-4098779.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Releases John F Kennedy Assassination Files: Where To Download & Read Online? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-releases-john-f-kennedy-assassination-files-where-to-download-read-online-4098657.html?ref=DMDesc 'Promise Made, Promise Kept': White House Hails Astronauts' Return, Trump Shares Video On Truth Social :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/promise-made-promise-kept-white-house-hails-astronauts-return-trump-shares-video-on-truth-soci-4098625.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.410~

Hamas Accuses Israel of ‘Killing Hostage’, Wounding Many in Brutal Airstrikes, Over 300 Dead in Gaza

Hamas has accused Israel of killing an Israeli hostage and wounding several others in its latest wave of airstrikes on Gaza, as the Palestinian death toll surpasses 300. The strikes, ordered by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have devastated multiple areas, with Gaza’s government media office claiming entire families have been wiped out. Hamas official Izzat al-Risheq condemned Netanyahu’s decision to resume military operations, calling it a “sacrifice” of Israeli captives instead of pursuing negotiations. Meanwhile, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have issued evacuation warnings, designating several areas as "dangerous combat zones," signaling a possible expansion of the offensive. As international calls for intervention grow, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza continues to worsen. #Israel #Hamas #IsraelAirstrike #GazaUnderAttack #IsraelGazaWar #IsraelHamasWar #MiddleEastConflict #Airstrikes #IsraelWar #IsraelGaza #GazaAirstrike #IsraelPalestine #BreakingNews #WarUpdates #IDF Also Read Justice Department and FBI Establish Task Force to Investigate Hamas Following October 7 Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/justice-department-fbi-task-force-hamas-october-7-attack-011-4097559.html?ref=DMDesc Explainer: How Israel’s Growing Entry Restrictions Are Blocking Doctors and Aid Workers from Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/explainer-how-israels-growing-entry-restrictions-are-blocking-doctors-and-aid-workers-from-gaza-4096773.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Issues Last Warning To Hamas To Release All Remaining Hostages Held In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-issues-last-warning-to-hamas-to-release-all-remaining-hostages-held-in-gaza-4087647.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.410~
