China allows Philippines to supply troops at disputed reef | South China Sea dispute | Oneindia News

The Chinese coast guard said it had made "temporary special arrangements" to allow the Philippines to deliver supplies to troops on a grounded World War Two-era vessel at a disputed reef.

The Chinese coast guard has previously deployed vessels to block missions by the Philippines to supply troops on the transport ship, which has become a military outpost at the Second Thomas Shoal, 190 km (118 miles) off the Philippine Island of Palawan.

Trump In Epstein Trouble: Obama Ready To KNOCK OUT Trump Ahead Of Midterms | Musk Snubs Trump On X [Video]

Trump In Epstein Trouble: Obama Ready To KNOCK OUT Trump Ahead Of Midterms | Musk Snubs Trump On X

Trump In Epstein Trouble: A major rift has appeared within the MAGA movement as supporters turn on President Donald Trump. The controversy ignited after Trump publicly defended Attorney General Pam Bondi, a move seen by many conservatives as a dismissal of concerns surrounding the recently unsealed Epstein files. This defense has triggered an unprecedented backlash from his own base. The fallout has been swift and visual. Influential conservative figures have condemned Trump's stance, and viral videos have spread across social media showing die-hard supporters burning their MAGA hats and other merchandise in protest. This public display of disillusionment signals a deep fracture within what was once Trump's most loyal demographic. As Trump scrambles to control the narrative with a 400-word post on Truth Social urging unity, even figures like Elon Musk have taken public jabs at him over the issue. Sensing a critical moment of weakness, the Democratic party is moving quickly to capitalize on the Republican infighting. Former President Barack Obama is set to return to the political frontline, headlining a major fundraiser in New Jersey this Friday alongside DNC Chair Ken Martin. This event, Obama's first since the 2024 election, is designed to rally the Democratic base and frame the GOP's internal conflict as a major liability ahead of the crucial 2026 midterm elections. This report from Oneindia News breaks down the timeline of the MAGA backlash, Trump's attempts at damage control, and the strategic moves being made by Barack Obama and the Democrats.

BREAKING: Gujarat Bridge COLLAPSE Kills 3 As Vehicles DROP Into River | 3 DEAD, Road Link Snapped [Video]

BREAKING: Gujarat Bridge COLLAPSE Kills 3 As Vehicles DROP Into River | 3 DEAD, Road Link Snapped

A major tragedy has struck Gujarat after the Gambhira bridge, a crucial link connecting Anand and Vadodara, collapsed on Wednesday. At least three people have lost their lives in the incident, which saw multiple vehicles, including a truck and a tanker, fall into the Mahisagar River below. The shocking collapse has brought traffic to a complete standstill, severing a vital transportation route in the state. Gujarat Minister Rushikesh Patel officially confirmed the death toll, stating, “Three persons killed in bridge collapse in Vadodara district.” Emergency services and disaster response teams were rushed to the spot to conduct search and rescue operations. This incident raises serious questions about infrastructure safety and maintenance protocols. The collapse has led to significant disruption for commuters and commercial transport between the key districts of Anand and Vadodara. Authorities are working to clear the debris and assess the full extent of the damage while rerouting traffic to prevent further chaos. According to Minister Patel, the bridge was originally constructed in 1985. He added that its maintenance was carried out periodically as and when required, a statement that will likely come under intense scrutiny as investigations begin to determine the exact cause of this fatal structural failure.

BREAKING: Russian Aircraft CRASHES Near Home in Tatarstan | Ukraine Link? Jet Circled for an Hour

A training aircraft, reported to be a Cessna 337 Skymaster, has crashed in Tatarstan, Russia, narrowly avoiding a direct impact with a private residential house on Monday. This developing story has raised urgent questions as an investigation into the cause of the crash gets underway. So far, authorities have confirmed that there are no casualties reported from the incident. According to dramatic eyewitness accounts, the plane was seen circling the area for approximately one hour before it ultimately crashed. This unusual behaviour is a key focus for investigators who are now working to determine the cause of the malfunction. While official confirmation of the aircraft model is still pending, multiple reports point to it being a Cessna 337 Skymaster, a light twin-engine plane used for both civilian and military purposes. The Cessna 337 is known for its distinctive push-pull engine configuration. Worryingly, this model has a documented history of accidents linked to issues such as engine failure, stalls, and fuel mismanagement. Investigators will be meticulously reviewing the aircraft's maintenance records, the pilot's actions in the moments before the incident, and the prevailing weather conditions to piece together what went wrong.

TRUMP TARIFF BLITZ | 20–30% Tariff THREATS Sent to 6 More Countries in Fiery Move

President Trump has issued new tariff letters to six more countries—Philippines, Brunei, Moldova, Algeria, Iraq, and Libya—via Truth Social, with 20–30% duties set to begin August 1. This follows his April plan to reset global trade, which was paused for 90 days. Trump warns rates may shift depending on diplomatic ties. With only two deals struck so far, the unilateral tariff campaign risks global retaliation and further disruption to supply chains amid rising trade tensions. #TrumpTariffs #TradeWar #BreakingNews #TariffShock #GlobalTrade #AmericaFirst #TrumpTradePolicy #SupplyChainCrisis #TariffUpdate #TradeTensions #TruthSocial #Iraq #Libya #Algeria #Brunei #Philippines #Moldova #USForeignPolicy #GlobalMarkets #EconomicPolicy #Trump2025 #TariffLetter #August1Deadline #TrumpNews #TradeDisruption #RetaliationRisk #Geopolitics #UnilateralTariffs Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

South China Sea BREAKING:Japan Sends Warships To Philippines To ‘Counter’ China’s Growing Aggression

Japan is set to export six Abukuma-class destroyer escorts to the Philippines in a landmark move aimed at countering China’s growing aggression in the South China Sea. The aging destroyers, in service for over 30 years, will significantly boost the Philippines’ naval capabilities, which currently lack such firepower. Defense ministers from both nations agreed to the deal in Singapore last month. Tokyo will frame the upgrades as a joint development project to bypass Japan’s pacifist export rules. The Philippines will inspect the ships this summer. This strategic partnership comes amid intensifying maritime tensions, as both Tokyo and Manila face growing challenges from Beijing’s territorial claims. The deal marks a new chapter in Asia-Pacific military realignment and is expected to draw a sharp response from China. #JapanPhilippines #SouthChinaSea #ChinaTensions #AbukumaDestroyers #NavalDeal #GeopoliticsAsia #USAllies #JapanDefense #PhilippinesNavy #TokyoManila #MilitaryExports #AntiChinaStrategy #MaritimeSecurity #AsiaSecurity #BeijingAggression #SeaPower #JapanNews #PhilippinesNews #WarshipsTransfer #ChinaExpansion ~ED.102~HT.408~GR.125~

300,000 Could Die? Japan Fears ‘Doomsday’ Nankai Megaquake | Tsunami Prophecy Triggers Mass Panic

Japan is on high alert as government officials warn of an imminent "Nankai Trough megaquake" that could killnearly 300,000 people. A recent seismic risk assessment puts the probability of a magnitude 8+ earthquake at 75–82% within the next 30 years. The quake would likely be followed by devastating tsunamis. The undersea Nankai Trough has a long history of producing catastrophic seismic events every 100–200 years—the last occurred in 1946. Public fears intensified after a 1999 manga by famed clairvoyant Ryo Tatsuki resurfaced, eerily predicting a massive rupture between Japan and the Philippines. The Japan Meteorological Agency has dismissed such claims as unscientific, yet growing panic has led to travel cancellations. Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba has rolled out a new national plan to bolster infrastructure and emergency response, urging citizens to brace for a worst-case scenario. The looming danger poses one of the gravest threats to Japan’s national security in decades. #JapanEarthquake #NankaiTrough #TsunamiWarning #SeismicRisk #Megaquake #JapanDisasterPrep #EarthquakeAlert #DisasterRisk #TsunamiAlert #JapanNews #BreakingNews #2025Alert #SeismicActivity #NaturalDisaster #JapanTsunami #EarthquakePrediction #EmergencyPreparedness #RyoTatsuki #DisasterForecast #PublicSafety

Ukrainian Skies SECURED Again? Trump Sends 'Patriot System' to Counter Massive Russian Air Onslaught [Video]

Ukrainian Skies SECURED Again? Trump Sends 'Patriot System' to Counter Massive Russian Air Onslaught

The United States has confirmed it is sending another Patriot air defense system to Ukraine to help the war-torn nation counter Russia's escalating aerial assaults. This decision comes as former President Donald Trump issued a strong statement, bashing Russian President Vladimir Putin for his aggressive military strategy. For months, Ukraine has pleaded for more advanced air defense, as the previous freeze in U.S. military aid allowed Russian warplanes to dominate the skies and launch devastating strikes with ballistic missiles like the Iskander and the hypersonic Kinzhal. The Patriot system is considered Ukraine's only reliable and effective shield against these specific high-speed threats. Its advanced radar and PAC-3 MSE interceptors are critical for protecting high-value targets, including the capital city of Kyiv, and vital energy infrastructure that Russia has systematically targeted. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Ukraine needs more of these systems, as the current six to eight units leave vast areas of the country exposed to Russian attacks. However, the deployment is not without risks. Each Patriot missile costs between $2-4 million, and Russia actively targets these valuable systems on the battlefield. The U.S. itself has a limited global inventory of Patriot units, balancing urgent requests from Ukraine with strategic commitments to allies in the Middle East and the South China Sea. This deployment signals a critical phase in the Russia-Ukraine war, testing both Ukrainian resilience and American strategic resolve. #RussiaUkraineWar #PatriotSystem #DonaldTrump #BreakingNews #USPolitics #Zelenskyy #Putin #WorldNews #OneindiaNews #Geopolitics Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~

South China Sea Breaking: Taiwan Deploys HIMARS Unit To Target Deep Into China | Xi Vows Retaliation [Video]

South China Sea Breaking: Taiwan Deploys HIMARS Unit To Target Deep Into China | Xi Vows Retaliation

South China Sea Breaking: In a significant escalation of defensive capabilities, Taiwan has officially formed its first combat-ready HIMARS rocket unit. This move is designed to strengthen deterrence against increasing threats and military pressure from China. Taiwan's Defense Minister, Wellington Koo, lauded the new unit as a "significant boost" to the island's defensive power, underscoring the strategic importance of this deployment. The soldiers operating these advanced systems have completed specialized training in the United States, highlighting the close military cooperation between Washington and Taipei. The M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) is a game-changer for Taiwan's military. It can fire six 227mm rockets or a single Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) missile, the latter boasting a range of up to 300 kilometers. This impressive range means that key military and strategic targets deep within mainland China's coastal provinces are now potentially within Taiwan's strike capability. Reports suggest that Taiwan may have already acquired these long-range ATACMS missiles, a detail that is sure to alarm military planners in Beijing. This deployment is part of a larger arms deal with the U.S., with 11 of a total 29 HIMARS systems already delivered. The move aligns with America's broader strategy to build a strong coalition in the Indo-Pacific to counter China's growing military and economic dominance. While the HIMARS system has proven its devastating effectiveness in the Ukraine conflict, analysts note that China's more advanced air defense systems could pose a greater challenge. The activation of this unit comes as Chinese military aircraft and vessels continue to cross the sensitive median line of the Taiwan Strait, prompting regular intrusion warnings from Taipei and keeping the region on high alert. #Taiwan #China #HIMARS #USChinaRelations #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Geopolitics #OneindiaNews #IndoPacific #ATACMS Also Read Pakistan at China’s Command: Proxy War on India, Debt Trap at Home—Sri Lanka 2.0 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-at-china-s-command-proxy-war-on-india-debt-trap-at-home-sri-lanka-2-0-7791359.html?ref=DMDesc Iran To Buy Chinese J-10C Fighter Jets :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-to-buy-chinese-j-10c-fighter-jets-7788123.html?ref=DMDesc China Halts Exports Of Specialty Fertilisers To India Amid Rising Tensions, Raising Supply Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/china-halts-exports-of-specialty-fertilisers-to-india-amid-rising-tensions-raising-supply-concerns-7783941.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~

Tensions ran high as President Donald Trump met with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte at the White House. When asked how far he would go if Putin escalated the war in Ukraine, Trump fired back: “Don’t ask me a question like that.” He went on to emphasize his desire to end the war, calling for strength through unity and a better-armed Europe. Trump also announced that the U.S. will manufacture and send “top-of-the-line weapons” to NATO — a move likely to inflame Russia and reshape NATO’s military posture.

Macron Sends CHILLING Warning to Putin |France to Double Defence Budget To €64Bn Amid Russia Threat

French President Emmanuel Macron has issued a dire warning about the security of Europe, calling the current geopolitical climate the gravest threat since World War II. In a hard-hitting speech on the eve of Bastille Day, Macron announced a dramatic increase in France's defence budget, vowing to double it to €64 billion by 2027—three years ahead of schedule. He cited Russia’s aggression in Ukraine, rising nuclear threats, and unpredictable U.S. policy as key concerns. “To be free, you must be feared,” he declared, reinforcing his belief in strength through military power. France’s top general also claimed Russia now views France as its top European adversary. As tensions soar and NATO pushes for 5% GDP defence spending, Macron’s move marks a strategic pivot to prepare France and Europe for a potentially volatile decade. The plan awaits approval, but the message is clear—Europe must act now or risk losing its standing. #Macron #France #WW2Threat #Russia #UkraineWar #NATO #EuropeanSecurity #DefenceSpending #BastilleDay #NuclearThreat #FranceMilitary #EmmanuelMacron #GlobalTensions #MilitaryBudget #Geopolitics #USForeignPolicy #FranceVsRussia #EuropeDefense #ThierryBurkhard #FrancoisBayrou

China-Philippines Clash Over Disputed Second Thomas Shoal; Beijing’s Big Threat to Manila Over Clash

Tensions in the South China Sea have erupted once again after a maritime clash between Chinese and Philippine vessels near the disputed Second Thomas Shoal, also known as Tiexian Jiao. The incident, confirmed by both sides, involved a collision in contested waters. Beijing has issued a stern warning, threatening a "resolute response" if Manila continues what it calls "provocations." China's Foreign Ministry accused the Philippines of violating its sovereignty and breaching the 2002 Declaration on Conduct in the region. Meanwhile, the U.S. has condemned China's actions as aggressive, escalating geopolitical friction in the region. #Philippines #ChinaPhilippines #ChinaVsPhilippines #SouthChinaSea #WestPhilippineSea #WaterCannonAttack #ChinaAggression #MaritimeDispute #PagAsaCays #NavalStandoff #PhilippineNews #ChinaPhilippinesTension #ChinaPhilippinesConflict #ChinaFiresWaterCannon #SeaClash #TerritorialDispute Also Read WATCH Video: India Delivers First Set Of BrahMos Missiles To Philippines Amid China Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/watch-video-india-delivers-first-set-of-brahmos-missiles-to-philippines-amid-china-concerns-3803935.html?ref=DMDesc India Set to Deliver First Batch of BrahMos Missiles to Philippines This Friday :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-delivers-brahmos-missiles-to-philippines-011-3803375.html?ref=DMDesc Japan's Kishida Aims for Stronger Military Cooperation with US, Allies :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/japan-us-strengthen-military-ties-ahead-kishida-visit-011-3792961.html?ref=DMDesc
