Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said on Friday that two Air Force F-15E Strike Eagles launched seven missiles on infrastructure used by Iranian-backed militant groups in Syria early on Friday local time.
The White House has officially confirmed a policy shift, allowing Ukraine to strike targets within Russia using U.S.-supplied Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS). National Security Council spokesman John Kirby stated that Ukraine now has the green light to deploy these weapons for immediate defensive needs, particularly in areas like Russia's Kursk region. This move follows heightened speculation over the past week, during which Kyiv reportedly used ATACMS in strikes on Russia’s Bryansk region.
The U.S. and NATO allies have continuously supplied advanced weaponry to Ukraine since 2022 while asserting that this support does not make them direct participants in the conflict. However, Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly warned of severe repercussions, including nuclear escalation, if NATO’s involvement crosses certain thresholds. In September, Putin emphasized that Kyiv's use of long-range weapons could alter the nature of the war, effectively drawing NATO into direct confrontation.

A shocking act of vandalism unfolded on a bustling Syrian street as a group of radical individuals burned down a towering Christmas tree, sparking outrage across the region. The incident, captured on video, shows the massive tree engulfed in flames, symbolizing growing tensions in an area already fraught with unrest.

HTS militants have unleashed a terrifying campaign of violence across Syria, with attacks occurring every 10 minutes, primarily targeting minority populations along the coastal regions. Following their rapid takeover on December 8, which ended Bashar al-Assad's 24-year rule, the militants have engaged in widespread looting, kidnapping, assassination, and harassment. Areas like Qardaha, Tartous, and Latakia have been hit hardest, with reports of grisly shootings, throat-slashing, and desecration of religious sites. An information blackout has made it difficult to fully document the scale of the devastation, but protests are surging in response to HTS' brutal tactics. This deadly operation has left a nation in fear, with entire communities now living in constant danger.
