Washington Signals Swift Timeline for Iran Operation

US official said that achievable objectives of Operation Epic Fury are expected to last about six weeks. The White House says it expects U.S. military objectives in Iran to be achieved within four to six weeks , emphasizing that Operation Epic Fury is progressing as planned. According to Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, the campaign has already weakened Iran’s naval capabilities and sharply reduced missile attacks, putting the U.S. “well on its way” toward its strategic goals.  The operation, now in its second week, focuses on dismantling Iran’s ballistic missile infrastructure, degrading its navy, and limiting its pathway to nuclear weapons. Officials maintain that U.S. stockpiles and resources are sufficient to sustain the mission through its projected timeline.  As regional tensions escalate, Washington continues to frame the operation as both achievable and time‑bound, reinforcing its confidence in meeting objectives by early April.

UK Police Prepare for More Far-Right Unrest After Another Night of Riots

 

 Police across the United Kingdom are gearing up for further violence this weekend following another night of rioting by far-right protesters. The latest unrest saw three officers hospitalized after a tense stand-off outside a mosque in northeast England.

The city of Sunderland has been particularly affected, with far-right demonstrators rampaging through the streets, setting cars and buildings on fire. The protests were sparked by misinformation surrounding a mass stabbing that resulted in the deaths of three young girls. False rumors about the attacker’s identity, linking him to the Muslim and immigrant communities, have fueled the anger of far-right supporters.

In response, police have increased their presence and are preparing for more than 20 protests expected over the weekend in cities including Belfast, Cardiff, Liverpool, and Manchester. Authorities are also deploying surveillance and facial recognition technology to manage the situation.

The Muslim Council of Britain has expressed concerns about the safety of Islamic places of worship, prompting many mosques to strengthen their security measures. Counter-protests are also anticipated, with organizations like Stand Up To Racism rallying against Islamophobia and the far-right.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced the formation of a national policing unit to crack down on violent protesters, emphasizing that those involved in the disorder will face severe consequences.

As tensions remain high, the UK braces for a challenging weekend ahead.
