- Iranian explosive-laden boats appear to have attacked two fuel tankers in Iraqi waters setting them ablaze and killing one crew member on Wednesday evening, after projectiles struck three vessels in Gulf waters, said port, maritime security and risk firms.
Video from the Iraqi Ports media office showed at least one tanker on fire with plumes of smoke rising into the night sky, and crews being rescued.
The ships targeted in late-night armed boat attacks in the Gulf near Iraq were the Marshall Islands-flagged Safesea Vishnu and the Malta-flagged Zefyros, which had loaded fuel cargoes in Iraq, two Iraqi port officials said.
Vessel tracking data puts the location of the tankers Zefyros and Safesea Vishnu in Iraqi territorial waters on 12th March.
Iraqi News Agency cited a statement from the State Organization for Marketing of Oil (SOMO) confirming the tankers Safesea Vishnu and Zefyros were hit while they were present in the ship-to-ship loadin...

- Description
- Peter Mandelson trousered a £75,000 severance payment when he was sacked as Britain’s ambassador to Washington last year - but asked for more than half a million pounds.
In September, Keir Starmer dramatically sacked him from the role after it emerged he coached Jeffrey Epstein through "years of torture" over underage sex charges. The PM has since said that Lord Mandelson "repeatedly lied" to him over the extent of his relationship with Epstein.
The files confirmed Lord Mandelson received a £75,000 severance payment - but that he asked for £547,201. The disgraced peer has already faced demands to hand back or give to charity the "golden goodbye" pay-off he received.

Speaking at PMQs, he said: “I took the decision that we should not join the initial US/Israeli offensive against Iran. The leader of the opposition attacked me for that decision relentlessly. She said the UK should have joined the US and Israel in the initial offensive strikes."
“Then yesterday in the wake of the economic consequences the leader of the opposition totally abandoned her position. She told the BBC ‘I never said we should join’. She told the BBC ‘I haven't said we should have gone in with the United States’. That is the mother of all U-turns on the single most important decision a Prime Minister can ever take. Whether to commit the United Kingdom to war or not.”

- U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Tuesday will be feature the most intense day yet of U.S. strikes inside Iran as the Islamic Republic, its firepower diminished, vowed to fight on.
At the Pentagon, Hegseth warned that Tuesday “will be yet again our most intense day of strikes inside Iran: The most fighters, the most bombers, the most strikes, intelligence more refined and better than ever.”
He added “the last 24 hours have seen Iran fire the lowest number of missiles they've been capable of firing yet."
Gen. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said U.S. forces hit more than 5,000 targets, and that their three objectives included destruction of Iranian ballistic missile and drone capability; hitting Iran's navy to allow movement through the Strait of Hormuz; and hitting “deeper into Iran's military and industrial base.”

- The Reform chief Nigel Farage reportedly boasted to supporters last week he would be jetting to Florida to dine at the US President Donald Trump's resort in Palm Beach.
He said he would "reinforce the message" about his opposition to the UK government's Chagos islands deal after the US President's flip-flopping on the issue. The pact will see the UK cede sovereignty of the islands to Mauritius and lease back the largest island Diego Garcia - the site of a US-UK military base.
Mr Farage's comments led many to believe he would be meeting with the US President as relations between Keir Starmer and Mr Trump hit a new low over the Iran war. But the Financial Times reported Mr Farage, who had been invited by a member of the Mar-a-Lago club, failed to meet Mr Trump on Friday after the US President changed his travel plans to stay in Doral around a hour's drive away.

- Asked if the U.S. would accept responsibility for the strike, Trump argued that the cruise missile, which is made by the American defense contractor Raytheon, is "sold and used by other countries" and that Iran "also has some Tomahawks."
"Whether it's Iran or somebody else ... a Tomahawk is very generic."
While Raytheon sells the missile to allied countries like Japan and Australia, there is no evidence to suggest that Iran has gotten their hands on the cruise missile.
New footage shows what an expert investigative group says is likely an American Tomahawk missile hitting a compound in southern Iran, meters from the school where a deadly unclaimed blast killed over 165 people at the start of the war raging in the Mideast.
It comes as mounting evidence points to U.S. culpability for the Feb. 28 strike, which hit a school adjacent to a Revolutionary Guard base in Minab, Iran, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province. Experts inter...

The US President claimed the war was "very far ahead of schedule" after he and his Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu ordered a comprehensive bombardment of targets in Iran. The strikes killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and wiped out much of the country's leadership.
Conflict in the Middle East has seen the busy Strait of Hormuz shipping lane grind to a halt. About 20 per cent of the world's oil supply flow through the shipping lane and Trump's intervention in Iran has seen prices spike worldwide.

- Donald Trump has fired Kristi Noem, his embattled Homeland Security Secretary in a huge blow for his mass deportation agenda.
The US President says he's replacing Noem and will nominate in her place Oklahoma Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin. Trump made the announcement on social media on Thursday, two days after Noem faced a grilling on Capitol Hill from GOP members as well as Democrats.

Noem is the first Cabinet secretary to leave during Trump's second term.

- MISSILE drone that hit UK base in Cyprus may have EVADED sensors by flying low to the ground

- Description
- The Mirror's Defence Editor Chris Hughes reports from Cyprus where UK Defence Secretary John Healey has arrived amid tensions about Britain’s response to drone attacks on the island triggered by the US’s war with Iran.
Mr Healey’s arrival comes as Britain has been facing criticism for failing to have enough military assets in the Middle East after RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus was hit by a drone.
Cyprus’s high commissioner to the UK said a British military presence to defend the island was “the least we expect”, in a criticism of the UK’s approach to managing the conflict.
Mr Healey met with his Cypriot counterpart on Thursday to offer “further support for our shared security in that region”, Commons Leader Sir Alan Campbell told MPs.
Overnight on Monday, a hangar at RAF Akrotiri was hit by an Iranian-made Shahed drone, which was launched from Beirut in Lebanon, according to Cypriot officials.

- MISSILE ALERT at RAF Akrotiri causes sirens to blare before Defence Secretary Healey lands

- Description
- A UK military base on Cyprus was the centre of a security alert today as the Defence Secretary visited the island.
John Healey was meeting Cypriot Government leaders as the sirens sounded and an aircraft took off from the Akrotiri base, which is near Limassol. The alert came just five days after an Iranian drone landed just short of the runway at the base used by around 4,000 RAF and other UK military personnel, and 7,000 civilians and their family members.
The siren stopped about five to 10 minutes after it had originally sounded. Experts warn that Cyprus remains a key target for Iran because it is within range of its drone missiles.
The island remains a popular destination for Brits with around 1.2 million visitors annually. The Shahed drone used in Sunday's attack cannot carry a large warhead. While it could kill an individual, it would be unlikely to damage large buildings.

- The Home Secretary has said in a speech at the IPPR (Institute for Public Policy Research), that said the party needed to be “more Labour”.
Mahmood said it was a “difficult time” for the Labour Party, and that the party’s identity is being “bitterly” contested on issues like migration.
“More Labour means reconnecting with who we are, who we represent, and what we believe. That begins by understanding that the Labour Party has always been a broad church.”This comes as the government lays out major changes to the immigration system, including an “increased incentive payment” of £10,000 per person and up to £40,000 per family to leave Britain under a pilot scheme.
