Iraqi forces have shot down a drone that attempted to target a United States military base near Baghdad International Airport, local media have reported, as Iran continues to strike US assets in Arab countries, with the region plunging deeper into war after six days. The drone attempted to target Victoria airbase overnight on Wednesday and was intercepted before it reached its target.

The White House posted a video of actual military strikes on Iran in the style usually seen in highlight videos, and started the video with a clip from Call of Duty. The real-life footage of missiles and other munitions hitting targets in Iran shows clips seen in other Trump administration videos.

I recognize that look and their eyes, that was a look that I would have when I was in college and my professor was asking me my take on The Odyssey and I said, exquisite writing, exquisite writing' and then I would ramble. Those are two of the stupidest answers I've ever heard in my life.

MAGA wants to see our country thrive and be safe. And MAGA loves what I'm doing—every aspect of it. This is a detour that we have to take in order to keep our country safe and keep other countries safe, frankly. I have to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of the Iranians.

President Trump's doing the right thing, the senator said. We took out the leaders. I don't know who they had running the show, but they started pushing the buttons to the missiles and started hitting their neighbors. And the neighbors are all mad now. So, it's just unfortunate. We lost what you said earlier, six people now.

More than 1,000 drones a high proportion of which are likely to be Shahed 136s have targeted Iran's Gulf neighbours since the US and Israel first attacked Tehran on Saturday morning. On Monday afternoon, the UAE said it had been attacked by 689 drones and had downed 645 meaning 44 drones, a little over 6% of the total, got through.

I don't have the yips with respect to boots on the ground like every president says, 'There will be no boots on the ground.' I don't say it. I say probably don't need them, [or] if they were necessary. The remarks come after joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Saturday targeted Iran's military and political leadership.

Do we support the U.S. and Israel in this military action in Iran or not? We the British were no part of the strikes yesterday and overnight, We share the primary aim that the U.S. have and allies in the region have that Iran should never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.

The U.S. and Israel are carrying out an unprovoked, illegal bombing campaign on Iran. This war serves no one but a tiny elite and oil executives.

I know Congress has been briefed as whole. I mean, the president had to hold this very tight and so there's a circle of individuals who need to know who have the ability to make decisions, but you have people like, honestly, Tlaib and Ilhan Omar that you can't brief Congress as a whole because those individuals you just simply can't trust.

Police officials released a statement X announcing that they will enhance security at diplomatic, cultural, religious and other relevant sites. Anyone aware of suspicious activity is urged to call 1-888-NYC-SAFE or 911.

In an eight-minute address on Truth Social that amounted to a declaration of war, Trump also acknowledged the possibility of American casualties. Within three hours of the initial strike, Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps said it launched ballistic missiles at four nearby U.S. bases, and the sound of air defenses shooting down missiles reverberated across the region.

The goal is to create all the conditions for the downfall of the Iranian regime, but developments will also depend on the extent to which the Iranian people rise up. Israeli officials said Israel is targeting the entire Iranian leadership - political and military, past, present, and future - and that Khamenei's residence and government compound have been struck.
