The U.S. military carried out new strikes overnight in Iran targeting a military site that officials believed posed a threat to U.S. forces and commercial maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, a U.S. official told Reuters on Wednesday. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the U.S. military has also intercepted and shot down multiple Iranian drones that posed a similar threat.The U.S. military strikes, which have not been previously reported, came during negotiations to end a three-month-old war that has killed thousands and sent global energy prices sharply higher since it began on February 28 with U.S. and Israeli attacks.U.S. President Donald Trump earlier on Wednesday dismissed a Iranian state media report that Iran and Oman would jointly manage shipping through the Strait of Hormuz as part of a peace deal. Trump said the waterway would remain open.The U.S. last carried out what it called defensive strikes against Iran on Monday, in what Iran called a violation of the countries’ fragile ceasefire. The U.S. targets included boats attempting to lay mines and missile launch sites that the U.S. military’s Central Command said posed a threat to U.S. forces. Read the full article here

HONOLULU — As the U.S. Army prepares for a possible fight in the Indo-Pacific theater, combat medical teams are seeing vast differences in what treating wounded personnel in the region would entail compared to recent conflicts. Looking back at previous wars, such as Iraq and Afghanistan, the U.S. military in 2009 implemented a “Golden Hour” standard, which requires medical care and evacuation to a surgical facility to occur within 60 minutes of a traumatic combat injury.In the Indo-Pacific, that might not be feasible. Army Lt. Col. Lauren Hamlin, commander of Veterinary Readiness Activity, Hawaii, told Military Times that the region’s distance, contested air and sea lines of communication, weather and limited evacuation platforms could greatly impact timely patient movement and access to surgical care.Prior to possible evacuation, these challenges necessitate prolonged field care, forward surgical stabilization and medical support for patients, Hamlin said.“Therefore, the priority in the Pacific is building resilient medical capabilities, both personnel and equipment, that can operate effectively in austere, distributed and contested environments,” Hamlin added.In a medical care demonstration with the 18th Theater Medical Command at the 2026 Land Forces of the Pacific Symposium and Exposition in Hawaii this month, Hamlin detailed how the Army’s health…
This article was originally published by Jacob Thomas at Natural News. President Donald Trump announced a 10% tariff on all Chinese imports, linking the penalty to Beijing’s alleged failure to stop fentanyl and its precursor chemicals from entering the United States. China exports roughly half a trillion dollars in goods to the U.S. annually, so the tariff would impose about $50 billion in new costs on Chinese products. The fentanyl supply chain involves Chinese chemical suppliers shipping precursors to Mexican cartels, which produce the drug and smuggle it across the U.S. border. Between 2015 and 2024, the U.S. recorded approximately 815,100 drug overdose deaths, with critics accusing China of insufficient action despite previous promises to restrict fentanyl analogs. The tariff strategy aims to pressure China economically, but it also carries risks of higher consumer prices as the 2026 midterm elections approach. In a dramatic escalation of trade policy tied to public health security, President Donald Trump has announced a new 10% tariff on all Chinese imports, directly linking the levy to Beijing’s alleged failure to curb the flow of fentanyl and its precursor chemicals into the United States. The announcement, which adds to existing tariffs already applied since Trump’s 2025…
