Trump calls Israeli PM a ‘war hero’, and adds ‘I am too’

US President Donald Trump has described himself as a "war hero" and praised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a "good man" and fellow "war hero" during a radio interview. Trump, who evaded the Vietnam War draft, justified giving himself the label on The Mark Levin Show on Tuesday because of his decisions about the use of military force. He said he was working with Netanyahu - who is under an arrest warrant by the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes - to free hostages being held by Hamas.

Far-right Israeli minister prays at Jerusalem’s most sensitive holy site, breaching decades-old agreement

A far-right Israeli minister has sparked outrage after leading a group of worshippers in prayer at the most sensitive holy site in Jerusalem, despite a decades-old agreement that bars Jews from worshipping there. National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who has previously been convicted for supporting terrorism and inciting anti-Arab racism in Israel, commemorated Tisha B'Av, a Jewish day of mourning, in the Al Aqsa Mosque compound, known to Jews as Temple Mount. On Tisha B'Av, Jews mark the destruction of two ancient temples that once stood on the land.

Top Qatari officials had been meeting with the country's prime minister on Monday afternoon to find ways of de-escalating a conflict between Iran and Israel, when defence ministry personnel called to warn of incoming Iranian missiles.

Unease had gripped the Gulf Arab states that morning.

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...
