Canadians Gain More Room to Save with 2025 TFSA Limit

  The Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) contribution limit for 2025 has been set at $7,000 , giving Canadians another opportunity to grow their investments tax-free. Since its launch in 2009, the TFSA has become one of the most popular savings tools in the country, offering flexibility and tax advantages that appeal to both short-term savers and long-term investors.

Israeli Military Intercepts Missile from Yemen Amid Rising Regional Tensions

The Israeli military announced on Saturday that it successfully intercepted a missile launched from Yemen, marking the latest escalation in regional hostilities. The missile, reportedly fired by the Iran-backed Houthi forces, triggered air raid sirens in multiple areas across Israel but caused no casualties or significant damage.

This incident comes as the Houthis continue their campaign of missile and drone attacks against Israel, citing solidarity with Palestinians amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The group has vowed to expand its range of targets in response to Israel’s renewed offensive in Gaza, which resumed in mid-March following the breakdown of ceasefire negotiations.

Meanwhile, the United States has intensified its military operations against Houthi positions in Yemen, launching large-scale airstrikes aimed at reducing the group's capabilities. The strikes, ordered by U.S. President Donald Trump in March, represent one of the most significant American military interventions in the Middle East since his administration began.

As tensions continue to rise, analysts warn that the ongoing exchanges of fire could further destabilize the region, with potential implications for international security and trade routes in the Red Sea. The Israeli military remains on high alert, prepared to counter any future threats from Yemen and other hostile actors.
