Julian Assange , Reaches Plea Deal With , US Government.
'The Independent' reports that Wikileaks
founder Julian Assange has been released
from Belmarsh prison as part of a plea deal
with the United States Justice Department.
Assange will be flown out of the U.K. as part
of the deal before he makes a guilty plea deal
that could end the years-long legal battle.
On June 24, Assange boarded a flight at Stansted airport
ahead of a scheduled appearance later this week in the
Mariana Islands, a Western Pacific U.S. commonwealth.
The U.S. government has charged the
Wikileaks founder with conspiracy to obtain
and disclose national defense secrets.
The charges stem from one of the largest leaks of
classified information in U.S. history, disclosing tens of
thousands of reports regarding the war in Afghanistan.
The disclosure, which occurred between 2009 and
2011, included unfiltered diplomatic cables that
potentially endangered the safety of confidential sources. .
The leak also included significant
activity reports related to the war in Iraq
and information regarding Guantanamo Bay.
According to the latest DOJ filing, Assange is expected
to plead guilty and be sentenced to 62 months of time
already served, thus avoiding U.S. imprisonment. .
This is the result of a global campaign
that spanned grass-roots organizers,
press freedom campaigners,
legislators and leaders from
across the political spectrum,
all the way to the United Nations, Wikileaks statement, via X.
After more than five years in
a 2x3 metre cell, isolated 23 hours
a day, he will soon reunite with his
wife Stella Assange, and their children,
who have only known their
father from behind bars, Wikileaks statement, via X

Hezbollah and Yemen's Armed Forces have significantly improved their air defense capabilities, successfully downing several Israeli and US drones. This development is forcing Israel and the US to reconsider their air operations in the region. Experts suggest that these groups' enhanced abilities could challenge Israel's air dominance and compromise intelligence gathering. As a result, Israel and the US may need to adjust their tactics, improve countermeasures, and continue developing new technologies to maintain their aerial advantage.

Al Jazeera reports that India is quietly supplying weapon components to Israel during the Gaza conflict, despite advocating for peaceful resolutions. Two cargo ships carrying explosives from India to Israel were identified. India and Israel collaborate on missile production and drone manufacturing. Indian companies like Premier Explosives Limited and Adani Defence & Aerospace are involved. This arms trade contrasts with India's public stance of supporting dialogue over military action, potentially complicating its diplomatic position.

The Secretary-General of Iraq's Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq resistance group, Qais al-Khazali, has issued a stark warning to Israel against initiating a new war on Lebanon, emphasising that such aggression would jeopardise the strategic interests of its key ally, the United States, in West Asia. In a bold statement, al-Khazali underscored that the Israeli regime and its extremist right-wing administration, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, would ultimately fail to benefit the United States, questioning the wisdom of Washington's unwavering support for Tel Aviv.

In a significant escalation of regional tensions, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced in the early hours of Wednesday that it had executed a drone strike targeting a "vital Israeli target" in the occupied Palestinian city of Umm al-Rashrash, known as Eilat. This marks a notable development in the ongoing conflict between Israel and various resistance factions in the Middle East. The Islamic Resistance issued a brief but pointed statement asserting that this operation was carried out in solidarity with the Gaza Strip and in retaliation for what they described as massacres committed by the Israeli occupation against Palestinians, including children, women, and the elderly. The group vowed to persist in targeting Israeli strongholds as part of their continued resistance efforts.
