US strikes two Syria bases used by Iran-linked groups – BBC News
The US has carried out air strikes against two weapons and ammunition storage facilities in eastern Syria used by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.
Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said the strikes were in response to recent attacks on US bases in Iraq and Syria by Iranian-backed militia groups.
The US strikes were “separate and distinct from the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas,” he said in a statement.
Iran did not immediately comment.
It is not yet known if there were any casualties from the attacks.

The jury in Russell Brand’s rape trial won’t see a TV documentary that a complainant says led her to come forward.
Judge Mr Justice Bennathan said it would be unfair to show the Channel 4 Dispatches programme because the allegations it contains have not been tested in court, but said that jurors will hear about it during the trial.
The 51-year-old actor and comedian faces seven charges – three counts of rape, three charges of sexual assault and one of indecent assault.
The allegations, made by six female complainants, span a 10-year period between 1999 and 2009. He denies the charges.

There have been sobering warnings this week from MI5, the UK’s AI Minister and a number of security officials – AI is already a threat to our lives.
But despite those fears, innovation and AI development continues at breakneck speed.
So this week on AI Decoded we focus in on that central question of AI – should we accelerate the development of ever more powerful AI systems, or slow down before the risks become unmanageable?
It’s the question at the centre of a major new film, Artificial, which explores the growing divide between OpenAI co-founders Sam Altman and Ilya Sutskever over the answer.
To discuss it all, Marc Cieslak and Dr Stephanie Hare are joined by technology futurist Bernard Marr and AI safety researcher Roman Yampolskiy, one of the world’s leading voices on the risks posed by superintelligent AI.

The BBC has witnessed Israeli settlers attack Palestinians and set fire to olive trees in the occupied West Bank.
Several dozen settlers dressed in black charged down a hill near an outpost – illegal under Israeli and international law – to a field where Palestinians and activists were harvesting olives. They torched about a dozen trees and hurled stones from slingshots.
Washington Post photographer Heidi Levine, who was at the scene, was taken to hospital where she told reporters she “got jumped” and described being kicked on the ground.
The UN says the past two weeks have already seen more attacks by violent Israeli settlers than during the entire harvest season last year. It says this year levels of settler violence have reached an all-time high.
The BBC’s Middle East Correspondent Lucy Williamson reports from the occupied West Bank.

I CAN IMAGINE WAORLD WAR 3 IS HAPPENING RIGHT UNDERNEATH OUR OWN NOSES. We are just not being told about it, a secret war underneath our own begotten eyes. Wars can now be fought without battlefields with sanctions, diplomatic isolation, cyber-attacks, trade embargos, in space, through proxy wars, now war has a whole new meaning because the same objectives can be achieved without obvious signs of conflict. Look at the Wagner group and Putin. The difference is the allies the UK has and the 5th Article of the NATO treaty.

I say there is no reason for the Palestinian to be where they are but to serve as an open wound that islam can bleed at any time and do when it suits their ambitions which has always been world hegemony…! full stop…! just what is the industry which keep the Palestinian where they demand they must be? Just what can't be cared for and over seen by world heritage as far as historical land marks? Except by being groomed from birth weaponized to despise another human culture and race so they can self identify? Stop being sycophantic people you wouldn't allow one of your children to do this filthy cry wolf trick when it is so obvious that they are taking clear advantage to provoke their brother and sister! So grow up and recognize this muslim hostile maneuvering which they purposely through their innocent into the fray of battle to bleed world sympathy all while cowardly sending their missiles of narcissistic caste syndicate the islamic blood letting is a crime against all humanity so wake up world…!

So does this mean anyone who supports and houses US military is a legitimate Russian target? These are the bases where the USA steals Syrian oil. Stop the slaughter of Palestinians…and using it as an excuse to wage war against some other country. USA = war criminals. Israel = war criminals – they aren't the only ones but if you've gotta be best in the world at something it might as well be best war criminals
