Trump suggests allowing Iran to strike LA, San Diego as 'small price'
US President Trump appeared to suggest that Iran should be permitted to attack Los Angeles and San Diego, calling it a 'very small price to pay.' The remark, reported by Anadolu Agency, is a rhetorical escalation in US-Iran tensions, though its context and intent remain unclear. If taken literally, it signals a dramatic shift in US posture toward accepting domestic attacks, which would be unprecedented and highly destabilizing.

Iran-UK Terrorism Plot: US Bombers Relocated Amid Escalating Rhetoric
A suspected drone attack attempt on RAF Fairford, a US-operated airbase in the UK, has led to seven arrests and the relocation of US strategic bombers. While the UK Prime Minister and US President Trump have publicly attributed the plot to Iran, Tehran denies involvement, and specific details of the attack remain unconfirmed. This incident marks a significant escalation in state-linked militant activity against UK soil and US assets in Europe.
