The U.S. Navy prevented an Iranian-flagged cargo vessel from leaving Iran on Tuesday after it attempted to evade the maritime blockade that began Monday, U.S. Central Command announced.The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Spruance redirected the vessel back toward Iran after it fled Bandar Abbas, exited the Strait of Hormuz and was making its way along the Iranian coastline, according to a CENTCOM release.“Ten vessels have now been turned around and zero ships have broken through since the start of the U.S. blockade on Monday,” the command’s post on X stated.The U.S. Navy blockade, which involves 10,000 troops, over a dozen warships and more than 100 fighter and surveillance aircraft, went into effect Monday after President Donald Trump announced on social media that the U.S. would seal off the Strait of Hormuz following failed peace talks between the U.S. and Iran.Any vessels transiting to and from Iranian ports are subject to the blockade, CENTCOM officials stated Tuesday, while ships not visiting Iranian ports can still navigate the Strait of Hormuz.The America-class amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli is also in the Arabian Sea in support of the blockade.Failed peace talks occurred on April 11 and 12 in Islamabad, Pakistan, and involved…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Duke University recently moved to suspend its chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) after the university received complaints about a flyer from the group that some claimed was antisemitic. The North Carolina university joins a string of other schools that have taken action against SJP chapters.On March 13, Duke SJP posted a flyer on its Instagram advertising a meeting to discuss “Iran, Zionism and U.S. Imperialism.” The flyer drew criticism, as it depicted two pigs shaking hands, one of which was dressed as the Statue of Liberty and had “U.S. Imperialism” written on its arm, while the other was dressed in a uniform, holding a staff with a Star of David and an Israeli flag. The second pig also had the word “Zionism” written on its sleeve. Jessica Costescu, a staff writer at the Washington Free Beacon, noted that the caricature originally appeared in a Black Panther newspaper in the 1970s. COLLEGE ANTI-ISRAEL GROUP CALLS FOR DEATH TO ALL ZIONIST ‘COLLABORATORS’ IN GAZAStopAntisemitism, a watchdog organization, condemned the flyer, saying that “Attempts to reframe or justify such messaging do not change its nature that anti-Zionism and antisemitism are directly intertwined.” In…

GiantMouse is breaking new ground in its catalog with the Redington. While this beefy fixed blade retains the characteristic elan of a GiantMouse design, it is a full on outdoors survival knife. For the majority of its existence, GiantMouse was built on design collaborations between Jens Anso and Jesper Voxnaes. Early last year, however, Anso parted ways after nearly a decade with the company to pursue other projects. Of course, the Voxnaes and the rest of the GiantMouse team have maintained the company’s brisk release pace, but for this one they tapped into a unique collaborator: the experts at the U.S. Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape school, otherwise known as S.E.R.E., which does field training in – surprise surprise – Redington, Maine. There’s a basic but rugged sheath in tow Measuring 5.1 inches in length, the Redington’s blade is by no means small; but its wide profile, beefy tip, and big bold swedge give it the swagger of a claymore. Unsurprisingly, it’s designed for tough chores in unfavorable conditions and it looks able to stand up to that remit. The blade steel used on the Redington is CPM MagnaCut, which we’ve seen in just about every knife application you can…

AeroVironment is debuting a new drone with the capacity to carry out reconnaissance, electronic warfare and strike missions, building on a lethal loitering system that is already being fielded by the Army, according to a Wednesday announcement. The defense technology firm introduced the system, known as MAYHEM 10, which expands upon its Switchblade family. The Army in February announced a $186 million purchase that includes two variants of Switchblade one-way attack, or “kamikaze,” drones: the Switchblade 600 Block 2 variant and the Switchblade 300 Block 20 variant.The difference is that MAYHEM 10 is multifunctional, meaning it can perform tasks in addition to striking. The new system can carry a 10-pound payload and has a range of over 62 miles, per the release. The system is capable of 50 minutes of endurance, with a launch assembly that can be done in under five minutes, the statement says. It can also be launched from the air, ground or maritime platforms.“By integrating advanced autonomy, multi-domain payloads, and rapid adaptability, we empower our forces to sense, disrupt, and strike with precision — even in the most contested environments,” Wahid Nawabi, AeroVironment’s chairman, president and chief executive officer, said in the statement.Last year, U.S. soldiers…

As United States President Donald Trump declares the war with Iran as almost over, thousands of additional troops have been deployed to the Middle East.

A citywide curfew implemented in response to several violent teen “takeovers” is set to expire in Washington, D.C. today, setting the stage for another round of unsanctioned events to bring chaos to the city’s streets as schools are released for spring break. Emergency legislation enacted by members of the city council previously allowed the chief of police to enact separate juvenile curfew zones that banned anyone under the age of 18 from gathering in high-volume areas between the hours of 8 p.m. and 6 a.m., according to the Metropolitan Police Department. However, the Juvenile Curfew Second Temporary Amendment Act of 2025 is set to expire Wednesday – during D.C. schools’ spring break and just days after a crowd of rowdy teenagers descended on the Navy Yard waterfront in the latest unsanctioned, viral takeover plaguing the city’s residents.WATCH: ROWDY TEENAGERS SWARM DC NAVY YARD IN WATERFRONT TAKEOVER DESPITE POLICE JUVENILE CURFEW ZONE In video shared by activist Elissa De Souza, dozens of individuals could be seen crowding a busy intersection after the curfew hours began over the weekend.”What should’ve been a great night out in Navy Yard turned into something we’re seeing far too often,”…

Nearly 150 military family members died by suicide in 2023, a drop of 22% in the past six years. Despite the decline, however, the rate of suicides among military spouses and dependent children has actually risen slightly, the result of a declining population and continued deaths, according to the Defense Department. According to the DoD’s 2024 Annual Report on Suicide in the Military released last month, 146 military family members, including 98 spouses and 48 dependents, died by suicide in 2023, the same number as the previous year. But the rate — 6 deaths per 100,000 people — rose from 5.8 per 100,000 in 2022 as the number of total family members dropped over the time frame. Moreover, based on data the DoD received in 2024, the rate has increased steadily since 2011, with a rising rate of suicide among male spouses factoring heavily into the increases. In some years — 2012, 2013, 2015, 2018, 2019 and 2020 — male military spouses had higher suicide rates than the U.S. male population, according to the data. “Male spouses accounted for nearly two-thirds of suicides among military spouses despite representing a much smaller share of the overall military spouse population (14%).
