Trump Urges NATO to Cut Russian Oil Imports, Pushes for Tariffs on China to End Ukraine War

President Donald Trump has called on NATO allies to immediately stop purchasing Russian oil, warning that continued imports undermine the alliance’s leverage over Moscow.

Rising Tensions: Iran Reportedly Planning Strike on Israel from Iraq

 

According to recent reports from Axios, Israeli intelligence has indicated that Iran is preparing to launch a significant retaliatory strike on Israel from Iraqi territory within the next few days. This development comes amidst escalating tensions between the two nations, following a series of tit-for-tat military actions.

The anticipated attack is expected to involve a large number of drones and ballistic missiles, potentially targeting strategic locations within Israel. Israeli sources suggest that Iran might be using pro-Iranian militias in Iraq to carry out the strike, possibly to avoid direct retaliation on Iranian soil.

This move is seen as a response to Israel’s recent airstrikes on Iranian military infrastructure, which were themselves a reaction to Iran’s earlier missile barrage against Israel. Iranian officials have vowed a “definitive and painful” response, with high-ranking sources indicating that the retaliation will be unlike any previous scenarios.

As the situation develops, the international community watches closely, hoping for a de-escalation of hostilities in the region.
