US Confirms of Mistakenly Attacking Farmer Rather Than Al-Qaeda Leader in Syria: Report| Oneindia
In an internal investigation, the Pentagon on Thursday admitted that American forces had misidentified an intended al Qaeda target during a drone strike in Syria in 2023, killing a civilian in the process.
Citing classified material, the U.S. Central Command stated in a statement that it was unable to disclose many investigational details to the public.
Although the strike complied with U.S. policy and the law of armed conflict, the investigation "uncovered several areas that could be strengthened."

Assassinations, Jihad Attacks On U.S. Officials â Including Trump, Vance, Rubio, Hegseth And Their Families - Elon Musk And His Companies, U.S. Military, Microsoft, And Targeting Jews In America And Europe: 'There Are No Red Lines.' Al-Awlaki urged Muslims to revive the "tradition of assassinations," describing it as the "greatest form of Jihad today." He said the targets should be the "leaders of apostasy," whom he labeled "Jewish Arabs," specifically naming the leaders of Egypt, Jordan, and the Gulf states.
He appealed directly to military personnel in Arab countries, calling on them to take action. He said Arab pilots should strike "the Jews," U.S. military bases in the region, and American aircraft carriers. At the very least, he said, they should attack the palaces of Arab leaders, describing these as the "initial steps" that must be taken.
Al-Awlaki claimed there are 4.5 million Muslims in the United States and said that they should carry out acts of retaliation without hesitation, stating: "Do not consult anyone about killing infidel Americans." Speaking over images of Manhattan skyscrapers, he said that the list of targets should be "effective," and declared: "There are no red lines."

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 Lebanonâs sovereignty requires no foreign approval and warned against disarmament under U.S. pressure. While open to dialogue, he stressed that any peace must respect Lebanonâs dignity and resistance. The remarks come amid rising regional tensions and renewed calls for a security agreement.

In a dramatic twist, it was Qatarâs own air defense systemânot U.S. interceptorsâthat initially shielded the AlâUdeid Air Base from Iranâs multiâwarhead GhadrâH missiles. Seamlessly integrated and rapidly activated, Dohaâs Patriot batteries detected and neutralized several incoming warheads, halting their approach before CENTCOMâs systems could fully engage. The speed and precision of Qatarâs defense network underscored the countryâs strategic importance and deep coordination with U.S. forces. Experts suggest this success could reshape Gulf military dynamics and highlights Qatarâs growing role as frontline guardian amid Iranâs escalating retaliatory campaign.

The Pentagon has confirmed it is conducting a âcapability reviewâ to reassess whether military aid to Ukraine aligns with Americaâs shifting defense priorities. Chief spokesperson Sean Parnell said the U.S. is taking a hard look at promised weapons deliveries â some of which are now halted â to ensure national interests come first. The move follows the White Houseâs decision to stop key shipments of air defense ammunition, artillery shells, and missiles previously pledged under the Biden administration.
With President Trumpâs âAmerica Firstâ policy reshaping foreign aid strategy, the Pentagon appears to be pivoting away from prolonged foreign entanglements. Ukrainian officials have slammed the halt as betrayal, warning it weakens their resistance against Russiaâs advances. Meanwhile, analysts say this could signal a major realignment in U.S. global commitments â and a boost for Russian military strategy. Is Washington walking away from Kyiv?

In a fiery Pentagon briefing, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lashed out at the media, accusing them of "cheering against Trump" and downplaying the success of Operation Midnight Hammer â a bold series of U.S. airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear sites. Hegseth defended the missionâs results, slammed leaks of low-confidence intelligence reports, and praised the courage of American pilots and defense crews. With tensions high and politics in play, the Secretary warned that biased reporting could overshadow what he called a âhistoricâ blow to Iranâs nuclear ambitions.

The Pentagon revealed that every weapon deployed in the recent U.S. strike on Iran had a pre-assigned target â and none missed. Officials emphasized the unprecedented precision of the operation, which focused on Iranâs nuclear infrastructure and command hubs. The statement underscores the effectiveness of American airpower, particularly the deployment of GBU-57 bunker busters, and suggests a major degradation of Iranâs strategic capabilities.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has described Americaâs widely perceived failure against Yemenâs Houthis as a âtailored operation,â claiming the goal was freedom of navigation and not the protection of Israeli-linked vessels. Notably, Hegseth made no mention of Israel during his statement. Critics argue the Pentagon has rebranded a humiliating military result, after months of failed deterrence against Houthi strikes in the Red Sea. The Pentagon's shifting rhetoric has sparked fresh debate over U.S. credibility, especially in light of its deep alliance with Israel.
