‘Snatching off the streets’: Ice targets churches, car washes and workplaces

Massive "No Kings" protests are erupting across the U.S. ahead of a planned military parade in Washington, D.C., which critics see as a display of authoritarianism. The protests follow a week of tension over aggressive immigration raids. Meanwhile, international attention is split as Israel and Iran exchange attacks, with explosions reported in major cities and Iran issuing warnings to Western powers.

Two skydivers lost their lives in what authorities are calling a "tragic accident" at Dunkeswell Aerodrome. Emergency responders pronounced them dead at the scene, though details about what went wrong remain unclear.

Tensions between Israel and Iran have escalated dramatically, with both countries launching missile strikes against each other. Explosions were reported in major cities like Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Tehran. So far, three people have died in Israel from Iranian strikes, while Iran claims 78 people, mostly civilians, were killed in an earlier Israeli attack. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has warned that this is "just the beginning," signaling the conflict could worsen.

A chilling new detail has emerged about the Air India crash that killed over 270 people—the pilot sent a mayday distress call less than a minute before the Boeing 787 plummeted from 650 feet, slamming into the ground just 2 kilometers from the airport. Authorities revealed the final moments of the doomed flight to London, where Captain Sumeet Sabharwal’s desperate "mayday" call was the last communication before impact.

The BBC has begun confirming the identities of those who tragically lost their lives in the Air India plane crash. While details are still scarce, this piece sheds light on the human toll behind the headlines—real people with families, stories, and unfulfilled futures.
