"If it can, I let the Prime Minister know that will ...

US shoots down Iranian drone approaching aircraft carrier, official says

The US military on Tuesday shot down an Iranian drone that "aggressively" approached the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea, the US military said, in an incident first reported by Reuters. The Iranian Shahed-139 drone was flying toward the carrier "with unclear intent" and was shot down by an F-35 US fighter jet, it said. "An F-35C fighter jet from Abraham Lincoln shot down the Iranian drone in self-defence and to protect the aircraft carrier and personnel on board," said Navy Captain Tim Hawkins, a spokesperson at the US military's Central Command.

Has Trump really ended eight wars? Fact-checking the president’s claim

If there is anything Donald Trump covets more than anything else, it's the Nobel Peace Prize. The president has repeatedly spoken of how much he deserved it, and raged in public and private at the country of Norway, which he believes is responsible for not giving it to him. At the centre of his claim for the prize is the boast that he has ended eight wars in a year. Reporters raise their hands as President Donald Trump speaks during a press briefing at the White House. (AP) But has he? "The short answer is no. And in fact, the short answer is not even close," Monash University senior lecturer in international relations Ben Zala told nine.com.au. "Two and a half, or, let's be generous and say three, are factually correct." Israel ...

UN nuclear watchdog chief says Iran could again begin enriching uranium in ‘matter of months’

The head of the United Nation's nuclear watchdog says US strikes on Iran fell short of causing total damage to its nuclear program and that Tehran could restart enriching uranium "in a matter of months", contradicting US President Donald Trump's claims the US set Tehran's ambitions back by decades. Rafael Grossi's comments appear to support an early assessment from the Pentagon's Defence Intelligence Agency, first reported on by CNN, which suggests the US' strikes on key Iranian nuclear sites last week did not destroy the core components of its nuclear program, and likely only set it back by months. While the final military and intelligence assessment has yet to come, Trump has repeatedly claimed to have "completely and totally obliterated" Tehran's nuclear program. IA...
