Israel’s military carried out multiple waves of deadly airstrikes across Lebanon targeting suspected Hezbollah sites on Saturday, as tensions flare again in the region.

At least seven people have been killed, including a child, and 40 others injured in Saturday’s airstrikes, the Lebanese Health Ministry said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered a “second wave” of attacks on southern and eastern Lebanon on Saturday evening local time in response to Hezbollah rocket fire toward Israel and “in continuation of the first wave of attacks this morning,” according to a statement released by the prime minister’s office.

“The Lebanese government is responsible for everything that happens on its territory,”
The attack mark the most significant eruption of violence between Israel and Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah since a ceasefire brought uneasy calm to the border.

As Russia retakes Kursk, Ukrainians ask, 'Was it worth it?'
When Mariia Pankova last exchanged messages with her close friend Pavlo in December, she had no idea that he was among the Ukrainian troops fighting in Russia's Kursk region.

She found out when a fellow soldier told her several days later that her friend, Pavlo Humeniuk, 24, a combat engineer in Ukraine's 47th Magura brigade, had gone missing near the village of Novoivanivka in Kursk on December 6.

Almost four months have passed and there has been no further information about Pavlo's fate, Pankova said with his relatives. She keeps searching on Telegram and Facebook hoping to find out whether he is dead or alive.
Pankova, 25, believes the cost of Ukraine's risky incursion into Russia may have been too high.
"I'm just not sure it was worth it," she said, large teardrops running down her face when talking about her missing friend,
"We're not invaders. We just need our territories back, we do not need the Russian one."

Chinese artificial intelligence startup Manus on Thursday registered its China-facing AI assistant and was featured for the first time in a state media broadcast, highlighting Beijing's strategy of boosting domestic AI firms that have received overseas recognition.

Since China's DeepSeek shocked Silicon Valley by releasing AI models comparable to its U.S. competitors but developed at a fraction of the cost, Chinese investors have been on the lookout for the next domestic startup with the potential to upend the global tech order.

Some have pointed to Manus. The company went viral on X a few weeks ago by releasing what it claimed to be the world's first general AI agent, capable of making decisions and executing tasks autonomously, with much less prompting required compared to AI chatbots like ChatGPT and DeepSeek.

Beijing is now showing signs that it will support Manus' rollout within China, echoing its response to DeepSeek's success. State broadcaster CCTV on Thursday.

What's happening?
On Feb. 4, the White House enacted new tariffs, paused them on Feb. 7, and then enacted them again on March 4, which included eliminating the de minimis trade exemption.

De minimis became law in the U.S. through the U.S. Tariff Act of 1930, with the goal of letting people and small businesses skip import fees for small shipments. The original amount was $200 and was raised to $800 in 2016.

Why is the ending of de minimis important?
Fast fashion has made buying cheap clothing from overseas too easy, offering clothes for as little as a few dollars each and therefore encouraging a larger haul per customer. To be able to sell so cheaply, the clothing is made to deteriorate, or at least not made to last, causing Americans to toss 82 pounds of clothing every year, on average.

While these extra few dollars of tariffs might make companies like Shein and Temu absorb the costs with small price increases or find an alternate route to keep consumers, sustainability adv

Tesla is in uncharted territory now that it appears to have shed its aura of invincibility. Punters find themselves in the dark about the stock's outlook, with Morgan Stanley telling clients the price could just as easily triple to $800 in the coming months as it could drop to $200.

Late last month, Simon Hale landed in hot water with his compliance department at Wellington Altus Private Wealth. Due to the sharp rally in Tesla, his holdings of the EV giant had become too valuable relative to the portfolio managed.

“That’s no problem any more,” Hale glumly told fellow investors during an online discussion last week. The stock, beaten down over the past fortnight, had just plunged a further 15% in one session, solving his quandary without the portfolio manager ever having to lift a finger.

CEO Elon Musk’s attempt to replicate Argentine president Javier Milei by cutting government spending with a chainsaw has sparked a wave of outcry across the United States.

A pair of Cleveland men are facing charges for attempting to sell dozens of AR-15-style firearms to drug cartel members in Mexico.

Yarquimedes Rodriguez Hilario, 32, and Adison Lopez-Ramirez, 34, sold and attempted to sell 90 rifles and one machine gun to undercover federal agents posing as cartel members, said prosecutors out of the Middle District of Florida.
President Claudia Sheinbaum early this month stressed that to stop the flow of drugs into the United States, the U.S. must address gun smuggling. A lawsuit brought by Mexico against U.S. gun manufacturers over the avalanche of U.S. guns into the country.

“Guns trafficked from the United States are the lifeblood of the cartels,” Jonathan Lowy, an attorney for Mexico in its cases over U.S. guns in the country, told USA TODAY. “If you want to stop the cartels and you want to stop the trafficking of fentanyl and the violence that’s causing migration to the U.S., you need to stop the pipeline of guns trafficked across the bord

The Trump administration’s foreign policy will upend the United States' position as an international beacon of freedom, former U.S. ambassador to Brazil Elizabeth Bagley said during an appearance this month in Palm Beach.

“We have been leaders of the free world, and now we are not, clearly,” she said in response to a question from the audience at a March 13 breakfast lecture hosted by the Palm Beach Civic Association at the Beach Club.
Bagley, who has held a position in every Democratic administration since President Jimmy Carter's told the audience that since the Cold War, international aid programs have been an essential part of U.S. foreign policy.
Since the administration of John F. Kennedy, the United States Agency for International Development and other programs funded by the U.S government have served to "develop friends through persuasion," Bagley said.

That has helped the U.S. avoid pursuing foreign policy goals through the military

When Marco Rubio signed on as Donald Trump’s Secretary of State, he went into the job “with eyes wide open,” according to a person familiar with his thinking. He knew it wouldn’t be easy working for Trump. He knew that Trump had a track record of firing top officials by tweet. He also knew what it was like to be called, “Little Marco.”

Rubio still lobbied for the prestigious job of being America’s top diplomat after he lost out on being Trump’s vice president to JD Vance.

What Rubio didn’t count on was that he might run the risk of being overshadowed as secretary of state by one of Trump’s closest friends, real estate developer and billionaire Steve Witkoff.

Over the first two months of the second Trump administration, Rubio has in some ways taken a back seat on the world stage to Witkoff, whose portfolio has expanded beyond his official title of special envoy to the Middle East.

Against the backdrop of Russia's three-year war in Ukraine, Poland and the Baltics are preparing to exit the Ottawa Treaty, the landmark agreement that saw 164 countries destroy their arsenals of landmines and ban future use.

But critics of the decision, including the Canadian who developed and promoted the agreement, warn this is more likely to harm the four countries' civilians and economies than be a successful weapon in warfare.

In a joint statement released Tuesday, the defence ministers of Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia recommended withdrawing from the landmine ban, citing the rising threat from Russia and its ally Belarus as the reason.

Although a final decision has yet to be voted on by their respective parliaments, the news has sparked concern in Europe, Canada and among human rights advocates, who warn this departure could undermine the lifesaving treaty established in 1999 — and set off a domino effect with other global agreements.

Downing Street have said that “nothing is off the table” in terms of possible UK troop deployment for Ukraine, as Western military planning is set to intensify in London next week.

Number 10 said “thousands” of personnel would be required to support any operation whether by “sea, on land or in the air” as allies prepare “for all eventualities” amid diplomatic efforts to end the war.

Officials from the so-called coalition of the willing will “accelerate the pace and scale” of work to consolidate proposals for possible troop deployment across land, air or sea to safeguard any peace deal.

It comes after Sir Keir Starmer warned Vladimir Putin would face “severe consequences” for breaching any truce as he met defence planners for the first stage of talks at the UK’s Northwood military headquarters

Less than half of emergency vehicles run by the Palestinian Red Crescent are operational in Gaza due to fuel shortages, the IFRC humanitarian network said on Friday.

Of 53 vehicles in total, 23 remain operational after aid supplies into Gaza, including fuel, were halted in early March, IFRC spokesperson Tommaso Della Longa told reporters in Geneva.

"It is having a devastating impact. If an ambulance doesn't have gasoline fuel then there are entire communities that are calling the emergency services and are not getting any answer," he added.

Palestinians with everyday health needs as well as those injured by a renewed wave of Israeli airstrikes on the enclave are being impacted by the reduction in vehicles, the IFRC said.
After two months of relative calm, Israel has effectively abandoned a ceasefire, launching a new all-out air and ground campaign against Gaza's dominant Palestinian militant group Hamas.

Russia and Ukraine traded blame on Friday over an attack on a gas metering station that lies in Russia’s Kursk region.
The attack on the facility in Sudzha comes just days after the US proposed both sides pause attacks on energy infrastructure.

The Russian Defense Ministry claimed Kyiv had “deliberately attacked” the station, which has been under Ukrainian control.
Moscow claims Ukrainian forces blew up the facility while “retreating from the Kursk region” with the aim of “discrediting the US president’s peace initiatives.”
Russia’s Foreign Ministry warned that it “reserves the right to respond, including with a symmetrical response” to what it claims were Ukrainian attacks on Russian energy infrastructure facilities.

Kyiv said accusations as “groundless” and claimed they are aimed at discrediting Ukraine and misleading the international community.
“Indeed, the station has been repeatedly shelled by the Russians themselves,” Ukraine’s General Staff
