Once bitter enemies, Syria and Israel may be inching toward an unlikely peace. In a dramatic turn, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has expressed interest in normalizing ties with Israel under the Abraham Accords, as per US Congressmen. Recent meetings between Sharaa and US Republican lawmakers – Cory Mills and Marlin Stutzman signal a new openness in Damascus, though scepticism lingers.

At the heart of this shift is President Donald Trump’s renewed push to expand the Abraham Accords during his second term. Trump claims more countries are eager to join the peace initiative, with Saudi Arabia seen as a likely candidate. Parallel to this, Trump hints at progress in nuclear talks with Iran — a high-stakes diplomatic effort aimed at avoiding further conflict in the region, even as tensions simmer.

In a stunning revelation, US President Donald Trump declared that Crimea will remain part of Russia in any final resolution to the Ukraine conflict. Speaking to Time Magazine, Trump boldly stated that Crimea "went to the Russians" long ago, suggesting that Ukraine will never reclaim the peninsula.

Meanwhile, Trump also shifted blame onto former President Barack Obama, calling the crisis "Obama's war" and claiming it "should have never happened." With Ukraine still vowing to take back Crimea, Trump’s comments could spark diplomatic outrage, raising questions about the future of the region and the West’s response to Russia’s hold on it.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov set off diplomatic shockwaves on April 24, telling CBS News that the Kremlin is "ready to reach a deal" with the US on Ukraine, though he also said some elements need to be "fine-tuned."

Lavrov also said that US President Donald Trump is “probably the only leader on Earth” who understands the root causes of the Ukrainian crisis. According to Lavrov, Trump believes pulling Ukraine toward NATO was a “huge mistake” — blaming the Biden administration — and says Trump wants to “rectify it.”
This bold claim came just hours after Russia launched its deadliest assault on Kyiv in months, killing 12. And yet, Lavrov insists: “We only strike military targets or civilian sites used for military purposes.”

US President Donald Trump expressed confidence on April 24 in reaching a nuclear agreement with Iran, saying the country faces only two options — one of them “not good” — and that a deal could save many lives. He also highlighted potential expansion of the Abraham Accords. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised Trump’s peace efforts, stating Iran could have a civilian nuclear programme if it stops uranium enrichment. Meanwhile, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei hinted that any deal with the US would be temporary. An Axios report claims Iran proposed an interim deal, which US envoy Steve Witkoff rejected in favour of a comprehensive agreement — a claim Iran denies.

Iran and Russia have agreed to expand their cooperation across multiple sectors, focusing on nuclear energy, oil and gas, and strategic economic ties.

After the 18th Joint Economic Cooperation Commission in Moscow, Iranian Minister Paknejad announced plans to continue building phases two and three of Iran's Bushehr nuclear plant using Russian funding. The two countries will also strengthen collaboration in oil and gas exploration, petrochemical development, and gas trade, including Russian gas imports and regional transit through Iran.

Further, Iran and Russia are finalising agreements with Russian energy giant Gazprom and aim to resolve remaining issues soon. The two nations highlighted their growing partnership through organisations like BRICS, the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, and OPEC+, emphasising shared interests and regional stability.

In under six weeks, Yemeni forces have shot down seven US Reaper drones—three in the past week alone—causing over $200 million in losses, according to The Associated Press. The drones, used for surveillance and attacks, were reportedly targeted by Yemeni air defenses as US military operations in Yemen intensified under President Donald Trump's orders. These strikes followed renewed Yemeni military support for Gaza amid Israel’s war there.
Yemeni forces have been targeting Israeli and US assets, including ships and warplanes, especially after the US formed a Red Sea maritime task force in December 2023 to protect vessels headed to Israeli-controlled areas. A temporary pause in Yemeni attacks followed a January ceasefire in Gaza, but operations resumed after Israel broke the truce.

Amid growing concern over civilian deaths from US strikes, Democratic senators have questioned the Pentagon's conduct, particularly after a recent US attack on Yemen’s Ras Isa fuel port killed over 70 civilians.

In an interview with Time magazine published on April 25, US President Donald Trump stated that his administration is currently engaged in discussions with China to reach a potential deal on tariffs.

He claimed that Chinese President Xi Jinping had recently called him, although he did not provide specific details about the timing or content of their conversation.


China's Foreign Ministry did not immediately confirm Trump's statement. Before Trump's latest remarks were published, China had urged Washington to stop "misleading the public" on bilateral tariff negotiations, a comment reiterated by Beijing's embassy in Washington.

Michael Gloss, a 21-year-old American and son of senior US officials—including CIA Deputy Director Juliane Gallina Gloss and defense contractor Larry Gloss—was killed in Ukraine in 2023 while fighting for the Russian military, according to iStories.

After dropping out of college, Michael traveled through several countries, expressing anti-Western views and disillusionment with US global dominance. Influenced by “conspiracy theories and political anger,” he ultimately entered Russia in August 2023 and enlisted in the military by early September.

His recruitment was linked to a Moscow enlistment office known for signing up foreign fighters.
