At least 12 killed in latest Israeli attacks on Lebanon

26 minutes agoHenry MooreEPAUS President Donald Trump has said a preliminary deal to end the war with Iran has already been signed and suggested that details of the agreement are set to be published "pretty soon"."I am very happy to say it's signed, the deal is all signed," he said during talks with French President Emmanuel Macron at the G7 summit on Monday.Senior US officials also began giving some details about the contents of the deal, briefing that the Strait of Hormuz would re-open on Friday - the same day the deal is formally inked in Geneva.Technical talks on Iran's nuclear programme are expected to begin this week, they said, while any sanctions relief or release of assets will depend on Iran meeting commitments under the deal.Vice-President JD Vance told CNN's Jake Tapper on Monday that the memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the US and Iran was "about a page and a half" and was a very general document. Vance added that a lot of the details would be worked out during future negotiations. "On a number of issues, we are going to have to figure this stuff out during the technical negotiation phase, but what the MOU does is set up a framework whereby the Iranians get the benefits of the bargain by meeting their obligations under the bargain," he said.In "paragraph one" of the document it is outlined that Iran will commit itself to "regional peace and stability", Vance said, which he added included stopping the funding of "terrorist organisations". "Most importantly, they're going to have a verifiable commitment to not building a nuclear weapon," Vance said. The US officials said the agreement had been signed electronically by Trump, Vance and Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. They also suggested more details of the pact could be released by Wednesday - although Trump said the full text of the agreement would be released "pretty soon" after Friday's ceremony."It's a very powerful document, and I want it to be released. So probably pretty soon," the president said.The deal will extend a ceasefire for another 60 days, during which the sides will negotiate details of a final agreement.Announcing the breakthrough on Sunday, Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, whose nation had been mediating, said it included "the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon".The US officials said that while Lebanon was covered by the ceasefire framework, the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory was not a condition of the deal. Israel would retain the right to self defence, they added.Speaking on Monday evening, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israeli forces would remain in security zones in Lebanon, Syria and Gaza "as long as necessary", and retain the freedom to act against attacks.He also told a news conference Iran would not be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons, with or without a deal.Netanyahu was speaking after Lebanese media reported a deadly Israeli strike on a car in the south - the first since the peace deal was announced. Hezbollah said it had fired missiles and drones at Israeli forces in return.Trump on Sunday said he had ordered the immediate removal of a US naval blockade of Iranian ports and added that the Strait of Hormuz would be opened when the initial agreement was signed.Taking to social media on Monday, he claimed that "ships are starting to move, many loaded up with Oil, out of the Strait of Hormuz".Iran's deputy foreign minister Kazem Gharibabadi confirmed the end of military operations in a phone call on Iranian state TV, which portrayed the framework deal as a victory for Iran.Gharibabadi said that Qatari mediators held "nearly 14 to 15 hours of lengthy talks" in Tehran to reach the initial agreement. Iran's top military command, Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, said that Iranians, together with the country's armed forces and Tehran's proxies and allies in the region, had shown the US and Israel that

Hackers hack victims hacked by other hackers

Oracle warned its corporate customers that there is a critical-rated vulnerability in its PeopleSoft software, which is used by large companies to manage payroll and human resources, a day after a cybercrime group took credit for abusing the flaw as part of a mass-hacking campaign. The company published the security advisory on Thursday after the hacking group ShinyHunters claimed to have breached more than 100 organizations that use PeopleSoft servers. Mandiant, the Google-owned security unit that investigates cyberattacks, warned in a blog post that the new Oracle flaw is the same bug that the ShinyHunters group is abusing in its hacking campaign targeting PeopleSoft customers. Oracle, which has not released a patch for the vulnerability at the time of writing, said in the advisory that the bug can be exploited over the internet without needing any authentication, such as a password. The tech giant recommended that customers who use PeopleSoft software apply its mitigations to prevent exploitation. On Wednesday, a ShinyHunters member told TechCrunch that the gang compromised the companies by abusing an unpatched flaw in PeopleSoft servers. The bug is known as a zero-day because the company affected, in this case Oracle, had no time to fix it before it was discovered and exploited. Mandiant confirmed that it has also notified more than “100 global organizations,” most of them in the United States, in an effort to restrict access to their potentially vulnerable systems. The cybersecurity group said that about two-thirds of these organizations are in higher education, which aligns with what ShinyHunters previously claimed. “While several organizations successfully blocked the activity or remediated the vulnerabilities, others experienced compromise, resulting in stolen data being published on the ShinyHunters [Data Leak Website],” Mandiant wrote. Oracle did not respond to TechCrunch’s request for comment. Contact Us Do you have more information about this hacking campaign? Or other data breaches? We’d love to hear from you.

The ShinyHunters member told TechCrunch this week that some of the hacked organizations are universities and colleges. The hacker shared a message they said was sent to one of the victim schools, in which the hackers claimed to have stolen “hundreds of thousands of student records containing full name, home address, phone, email, date of birth, gender, ethnicity, enrollment status, GPA, major, and student ID across all campuses,” among other data. PeopleSoft, and its customers, are the latest victims in a long series of hacking campaigns where the ShinyHunters gang targeted organizations that all share the same vulnerable software. In the last year, the group targeted several companies that use Salesforce, Gainsight, and software provided by education giant Instructure, and among others. Once the hackers identify vulnerable software and companies that use it, they try to steal corporate or customer data, and then threaten to release it unless the victims pay a ransom. Earlier this year, education tech company Instructure said it paid the hackers after they breached the company’s systems twice. As part of the hacking campaign, ShinyHunters defaced the login pages of several schools that use Instructure’s popular school information portal Canvas.

US strikes Iranian fast boats as Tehran attacks UAE oil facility

2 min readNew DelhiJun 3, 2026 11:26 AM IST A US aircraft fired a Hellfire missile at the engine room of the Botswana-flagged M/T vessel. (X/@IRIMFA_SPOX)The United States on Tuesday said it struck and disabled an oil tanker sailing towards Iran as part of its naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz. A US aircraft fired a Hellfire missile at the engine room of the Botswana-flagged M/T vessel after it “ignored repeated warnings,” failing to comply with directions multiple times over 24 hours, Centcom wrote on X.Centcom also released visuals on social media capturing the moment the tanker was hit. Why was the ship attacked? According to Centcom, the unladen tanker was travelling toward Iran’s Kharg Island, from where Iran has been collecting tolls in exchange for allowing vessels to pass through safely since the early weeks of the war. On 13 April, US President Donald Trump imposed a naval blockade on ships accessing Iranian ports and coastline, to prevent Tehran from collecting tolls. Defying Washington’s demand for restoring freedom of navigation in the strait, Iran established the Persian Gulf Strait Authority (PGSA) in May to formalise toll collection. Tehran has been pushing for US recognition of Iran’s sovereignty over the Strait and justified the toll collection, arguing that the key maritime route passes through the territorial waters of Iran and Oman. US-Iran ceasefire talks ongoing The development came after Trump requested changes to the potential peace agreement with Tehran. CBS News reported that the changes related to the Strait of Hormuz and the removal of highly enriched uranium from Iran.Story continues below this ad The US President also denied reports suggesting that peace talks with Tehran had halted over Israel’s ongoing military operation in Lebanon. The BBC reported that on Monday, Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman said Washington was “constantly changing its views and putting forward new or contradictory demands”. On Tuesday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told lawmakers that Tehran has signaled a willingness to negotiate elements of its nuclear program, the key sticking point in the ceasefire talks.

US-Iran War Live Updates: US intercepts Iranian drones in Kuwait after conducting self-defence strikes

US President Donald and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. (File Photo)US Iran Israel War News Live Updates: In the latest exchange in the war in West Asia, the US said it intercepted multiple Iranian drones in Kuwait moments after announcing that it conducted “self-defence” strikes on Iran’s Qeshm Island in response to waves of Iranian ballistic missiles fired at Kuwait and Bahrain. Earlier, US forces shot down three drones launched by Iran toward civilian mariners that were transiting regional waters, US Central Command (Centcom) wrote on X. No sanctions relief for Iran: US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that the United States does not promise any relaxation of the sanctions imposed on Iran, even if the Islamic Republic opens the Strait of Hormuz. Rubio asserted that “any sanctions relief is conditional” on Tehran’s “commitment, or compliance” with agreements on not enriching uranium and pursuing alleged “nuclear activity”.Story continues below this ad War in Lebanon: While Israel kept its operation past the Litani River ongoing, Hezbollah said it fired 13 attacks against Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, Al Jazeera reported. In the meantime, Israeli and Lebanese officials held their fourth round of talks in Washington, DC, as Lebanon aims to achieve a cessation of hostilities. On Tuesday, following talks with US President Donald Trump, Hezbollah said the group would support a ceasefire as a precursor to the withdrawal of Israeli troops, while Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said he would not attack Beirut but keep the operation in the southern Lebanon.

Has Iranian President resigned? Here's the truth after report claims end to Pezeshkian's rule over dispute with IRGC

In a report, Iran International had cited an official as saying that Pezeshkian resigned and submitted an official letter to the office of the Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei.Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian has not resigned(AFP)As the United States and Iran circle around the peace negotiations to end the West Asia conflict with America warning that it was “more than capable” of resuming war, a report has claimed that the President, Masoud Pezeshkian has resigned from his position amid a dispute with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) over its dominance in decision making.The Iranian authorities have now dismissed the report, saying Masoud Pezeshkian has “not resigned” and continues to do his duties, Tasnim News Agency has cited a government source as saying.Iranian official Seyed Mehdi Tabatabaei also dismissed the report and clarified that Pezeshkian will not step down.Seyed Mehdi Tabatabaei said, “The rumour-mongering by the disreputable foreign network is a continuation of previous ridiculous media games. They have published their own wishful thinking in place of reality.” He added, “President Pezeshkian will not retreat from serving the people, just as the Iranian nation will not step back from the path of solidarity and resistance.”What the report saidIn a report, Iran International had cited an official as saying that Pezeshkian resigned and submitted an official letter to the office of the Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei.In his letter, the Iranian president said that he and the government have effectively been sidelined from key decision-making processes in the Islamic Republic and claimed that the shots were largely been called by the IRGC.The Iranian president noted that under such circumstances, he was unable to run the government and carry on with his legal responsibilities, requesting the Supreme Leader to relieve from his duties.In early May, the news portal had reported of cracks widening within the Iranian leadership as it suggested that Masoud Pezeshkian and Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf were seeking the ouster of Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, accusing him of following the instructions of Revolutionary Guard chief, Ahmad Vahidi, during the nuclear talks in Pakistan without informing the Iranian president.Quoting sources, the report mentioned that Pezeshkian and Ghalibag have accused Araghchi of acting less as a cabinet member, and more as the aide of the commander of the Revolutionary Guards.Araghchi has also been accused of bypassing President and implementing policies based on Vahidi's instructions. Pezeshkian had also told people close to him that he will dismiss the Iranian foreign minister if he continues, the report mentioned. That has not happened yet.However, there have been reports of friction between Pezeshkian and Vahidi over how the war was being handled.According to certain reports, the Iranian president was stripped of his authority to appoint replacement of the officials who were killed during the war, while Vahidi was insisting on filling the posts and came under the control of the Revolutionary Guards.Stay updated with the latest Trending, India , World and US news.

Trump repeats that he is 'not happy' with Iran as deadline to seek approval for war looms

Just nowPaul AdamsDiplomatic correspondentReutersUS President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he was "not satisfied" yet with the terms of a deal being negotiated with Iran.A ceasefire "hanging by a thread". A diplomatic process "making progress". A president "not satisfied". And explosions echoing around the Gulf.What to make of the current, confusing state of relations between the US and Iran - are we close to peace or sliding back to war?The latest word from the White House is that negotiators from both sides have agreed a framework for a 60-day extension of the ceasefire, to allow room for further talks - but that this still needs US President Donald Trump's approval. This has not been confirmed by Iran.It comes towards the end of a week that has tested the ceasefire, which came into effect on 8 April and has now lasted considerably longer than the active phase of fighting which preceded it.Iran responded to the latest US strikes - which included what US Central Command (Centcom) described as a "ground control site" in the southern Iranian port city of Bandar Abbas - with a warning that "aggression will not go unanswered".Its Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) then said it had attacked an American air base. It did not say which, but Centcom later said a ballistic missile had been intercepted over Kuwait, where the US has several bases.Echoing Tehran's language, Centcom called the attack "an egregious ceasefire violation".It all sounds ominous, but this is still a far cry from the furious exchanges that characterised the first five-and-a-half weeks of this conflict. In that time, the US and Israel launched thousands of sorties against targets all across Iran, and Tehran responded with volleys of drones and ballistic missiles against US bases, Gulf countries and Israel.The US said on Thursday it had shot down five Iranian drones which "posed a threat around the Strait of Hormuz", suggesting shipping - commercial or military - was once again the focus of concern.But neither side seems to regard the sort of tit for tat exchanges we have seen this week as marking a return to all-out war.All the while, a tortured diplomatic process, involving multiple actors, is playing out in the background.We get glimpses of that process from time to time, but they are partial and fleeting.On Wednesday, Iranian state media reported elements of what they described as an unofficial draft of a 14-point memorandum of understanding.The report included everything Tehran would like to see: the lifting of Washington's naval blockade of Iranian ports, the withdrawal of US forces from the "vicinity of Iran", and the restoration of non-military traffic through the Strait of Hormuz with Iran and Oman in control of the management and routing of vessels.Notably absent from the report was any talk of Iranian concessions, especially on the all-important nuclear issue.The White House issued a terse statement, calling the purported draft a "complete fabrication". Later, during the latest televised cabinet meeting at the White House, Trump said he was not yet satisfied with proposals for a deal.Trump said Iran was "starting to give us the things that they have to give us". He did not elaborate and repeated his warning that Tehran's failure to comply would trigger a return to war."If they won't, then the man on my left is going to finish them off," he said, turning to US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.There were characteristic signs of impatience too. Asked about reports that Iran and Oman might seek to control the movement of ships through the strait, Trump issued a stark warning to a traditional US ally."Oman will behave just like everybody else, or we'll have to blow them up," he said.Meanwhile, the US Treasury on Wednesday sanctioned Iran's newly formed "Persian Gulf Strait Authority", set up by Tehran to oversee traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.The Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) called the scheme "a new attempt by Iran's Islamic

Today's top stories The U.S. military says three Navy ships came under attack yesterday while navigating through waters near Iran. U.S. Central Command says it responded by launching strikes on Iranian missile and drone sites. Iran says that the U.S. started Thursday's violence by attacking one of its oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. This incident marks the first report of U.S. airstrikes on Iranian soil since the ceasefire began a month ago. Malta-flagged oil tanker Odessa arrives near Daesan Port in Seosan City on May 8. Shin Yong-ju/AFP via Getty Images hide caption toggle caption Shin Yong-ju/AFP via Getty Images 🎧 Despite the recent violence, neither Iran nor the U.S. seems inclined to return to war, NPR's Aya Batrawy tells Up First. President Trump told reporters yesterday that the ceasefire remains in effect. But Trump continues to threaten Iran with more bombing if it doesn't agree to a U.S. proposal to end the conflict. Iran says it's reviewing the proposal and will deliver a response to mediator Pakistan. Republicans in Tennessee passed a new congressional map yesterday that would divide Shelby County — home to the majority-Black Memphis — into three districts. The action aims to eliminate the state's only remaining Democratic-held seat. Currently, Tennessee is represented by eight Republicans and one Democrat. The state is the first to redraw its congressional map after the U.S. Supreme Court last week weakened the Voting Rights Act's protections against racial discrimination in redistricting. 🎧 Protesters from Tennessee's blue cities argue that the new map will silence the voices of voters who support Democrats. These voters make up roughly a third of the state's population, according to Marianna Bacallao from NPR network station WPLN in Nashville. The NAACP has filed a petition to challenge the map, arguing that it is too close to the election to make changes. The organization says it could cause confusion about which district people are in. Over the last few days, Republicans in the Southern states of Louisiana, Alabama and South Carolina have also rushed to redraw congressional maps. Currently, California and Virginia are the only states that have adjusted their district boundaries to support the Democrats. Global public health authorities are working to contain a hantavirus outbreak that began on a cruise ship early last month. There have been eight cases reported, including three fatalities. The ship is currently off the coast of Africa, but dozens of passengers have already disembarked and flown to destinations in Turkey, New Zealand and the United States. Despite a series of alarmist headlines, the World Health Organization emphasizes that the risk to the general public remains very low. Here's what else you should know about the hantavirus outbreak, including what the symptoms are, how it spreads, how the U.S. has responded and more. 🎧 Epidemiologists are racing to identify individuals who've come into contact with those infected in the outbreak.

Trump reviews Iranian peace proposal, warns strikes could resume

15 minutes agoGeorge WrightEPAFujairah is the UAE's biggest port and oil storage facilityPresident Donald Trump says the US has struck seven Iranian "fast boats" in the Strait of Hormuz, as Washington seeks to guide stranded ships out of the Gulf through the largely closed waterway.The UAE and South Korea both reported strikes on ships in the vital channel on Monday. The UAE also said a fire broke out at the oil port of Fujairah after an Iranian attack.Shipping company Maersk told the BBC that one of its US-flagged vessels had successfully exited the strait with US military protection - under what Trump has called "Project Freedom".Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that events in the strait "make clear that there's no military solution to a political crisis".He added: "Project Freedom is Project Deadlock."Maersk said the transit of one of its commercial vessels was "completed without incident, and all crew members are safe and unharmed".The Strait of Hormuz has remained largely blocked since the US and Israel launched air strikes on Iran in February. Tehran responded by blocking the crucial waterway through which 20% of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas is meant to pass freely. In early April the US and Iran announced a ceasefire under which Iran ended its drone and missile strikes on Gulf countries including the UAE, but few vessels have been able to transit the strait since then and the US imposed its own blockade on Iranian ports.Trump said: "We've shot down seven small boats or, as they like to call them, 'fast' boats. It's all they have left." The US military said it had used helicopters to attack the boats. Iran denied such attacks had taken place.Earlier the US said navy destroyers and US-flagged merchant ships sailed through the strait on Monday. Iran called the claims "entirely false" and said its military said it fired warning shots at a US warship. The US military denied this.Later on Monday shipping firm Maersk said its US-flagged vessel the Alliance Fairfax, which had been stranded in the Gulf since the US and Israeli attack on Iran at the end of February, had exited the Strait of Hormuz.The firm had been contacted by the US and "offered the opportunity for the vessel to exit the Gulf under US military protection", the firm said. "The vessel subsequently exited the Persian Gulf accompanied by US military assets, the firm, said in a statement.Meanwhile the UAE's foreign ministry reported a tanker affiliated with Adnoc, its state-owned oil company, was hit in the Strait of Hormuz. South Korea also reported an explosion on one of its ships anchored just off the UAE.The UAE authorities also reported air defences had engaged 12 ballistic missiles, three cruise missiles and four drones. Local officials said one strike caused a large fire and three injuries at its key oil port of Fujairah.The UAE called the attacks a "dangerous escalation" and said it reserved the right to respond. Iranian state TV has quoted an unnamed military official as saying that Iran had "no plans to target the UAE".The benchmark Brent crude oil price passed $115 a barrel shortly after the reports that Fujairah had come under attack, up more than 5% on the day. Fujairah lies on the east coast of the UAE, beyond the Strait of Hormuz. A pipeline from the oilfields of Abu Dhabi runs to Fujairah, allowing limited amounts of crude to be loaded on to tankers and shipped to world markets despite the strait being effectively blockaded.Neighbouring Qatar condemned the attack on the tanker affiliated with Adnoc and called for the strait's "unconditional reopening".In Oman, two people were injured when a residential building was targeted in Bukha, along the coastline of the Strait of Hormuz, state media reported on Monday.On Sunday, Trump said the US would start helping stranded vessels out of the shipping lane as part of "Project Freedom". An estimated 20,000 seafarers on 2,000 ships have been stuck since the US-Iran war began in Februar
