31 March,2026 09:43 PM ISTThe United States has reportedly carried out a powerful strike on a key ammunition and military facility in Iran’s Isfahan using 2000-pound bunker buster bombs. Officials say multiple penetrator munitions were used, indicating hardened underground targets linked to Iran’s military and nuclear infrastructure. Formerly hinted by President Donald Trump, the strike was followed by a dramatic video showing successive explosions, fires and thick smoke rising into the night sky. The visuals suggest secondary detonations likely caused by stored ammunition at the site.... [Read More]
31 March,2026 09:41 PM ISTUkrainian drones have struck Russia`s key Baltic Sea oil export hub at Ust-Luga again, marking the fifth attack in just 10 days. Industry sources say crude oil loading facilities operated by Transneft were targeted, potentially disrupting Russia’s ability to export crude and petroleum products. The repeated drone strikes are part of Ukraine’s intensified campaign against Russia’s energy infrastructure. Ust Luga is one of Moscow’s most important export terminals, handling around 700000 barrels of crude oil per day and millions of tons of petroleum products annually.... [Read More]
31 March,2026 09:41 PM ISTIran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has issued a sharp warning to the United States, threatening a decisive response to any invasion. The IRGC spokesperson said Iran would “cut off legs” of any aggressor, escalating tensions as Washington deploys elite troops to the Middle East. Thousands of US soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division have begun arriving in the region, joining Marines, Special Operations forces and naval assets already positioned near Iran. Reports suggest these troops could be used for multiple scenarios, including a potential attempt to seize Kharg Island, the hub that handles nearly 90 percent of Iran’s oil exports.... [Read More]
31 March,2026 09:41 PM ISTTrump has slowed down immediate military action in the Strait of Hormuz, opting instead for a calculated exit strategy while allowing Iran temporary operational control of the vital trade route. The US now aims to weaken Iran’s naval and missile capabilities before stepping back, as oil markets stabilize slightly after a sharp surge. Meanwhile, diplomatic efforts are being prepared to reopen the Strait, with allies ready to step in if needed, even as tensions remain high following the killing of a key Iranian naval commander linked to the blockade.

31 March,2026 02:58 PM ISTA major forensic twist has shaken the investigation into the murder of Charlie Kirk, as newly revealed ballistic evidence raises serious questions about the prosecution’s case against Tyler Robinson. According to fresh analysis, the bullet recovered from the crime scene does not match the rifle allegedly linked to Robinson, a development that could fundamentally alter the direction of the case. The findings, reportedly backed by ATF examination, challenge one of the most critical pillars of the prosecution’s argument. As doubts grow, the defence has moved to delay the preliminary hearing, citing incomplete forensic data, unresolved DNA inconsistencies and the sheer volume of evidence still under review. At the same time, investigators are examining a series of alleged messages and a reported three-hour journey tied to the suspect, suggesting a possible premeditated angle. However, without a clear ballistic link, the narrative faces mounting scrutiny. WATCH... [Read More]
31 March,2026 12:15 PM ISTA dramatic escalation in Gulf tensions has unfolded after a suspected Iran-linked drone strike set a Kuwaiti-flagged oil tanker Al-Salmi ablaze near Dubai’s anchorage. The vessel, fully loaded with crude, caught fire following a direct hit, triggering a massive emergency response from maritime authorities. Firefighting teams were quickly deployed to contain the blaze, while early reports confirm that all 24 crew members are safe with no injuries. However, the situation remains critical as damage assessment begins and concerns grow over a potential oil spill in one of the world’s busiest energy corridors. The incident comes amid a wider pattern of escalating drone and missile activity targeting commercial shipping across the Gulf. Reports of projectiles near Saudi Arabia’s Ras Tanura and rising threats around the Strait of Hormuz are adding to fears of a broader disruption to global oil supply chains.... [Read More]
31 March,2026 10:11 AM ISTSpain has taken a bold stand against US military operations linked to the Iran war, closing its airspace to American aircraft and denying access to key bases at Rota and Moron. The decision forces US warplanes to reroute toward the Middle East, complicating logistics. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has strongly opposed the US Israel strikes on Iran, calling for de-escalation and refusing to support operations that could widen the conflict. Madrid says the move is aimed at preventing further escalation.... [Read More]
