Iran strikes aimed to destroy nuclear enrichment capacity: US tells UN
The objective of US strikes on Iran last weekend "was to destroy Iran's nuclear enrichment capacity and stop the threat that this rogue regime obtains and uses a nuclear weapon," the United States told the United Nations Security Council in a letter on Friday, seen by Reuters."The United States remains committed to pursuing a deal with the Iranian government," wrote acting US Ambassador to the UN Dorothy Shea. Washington justified the strikes as collective self-defence under article 51 of the founding UN Charter, which requires the 15-member Security Council to be immediately informed of any action states take in self-defence against armed attack.- EndsTune InMust Watch advertisement

I think he likes me: Trump embraces ‘daddy' nickname from Nato chief
US President Donald Trump received an unexpected nickname at the 2025 NATO Summit in the Netherlands that quickly became a viral moment. During a conversation about the United States' role in enforcing a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte referred to Trump as "daddy" while commenting on the president's strong had sharply criticized both nations for violating the truce, saying they had been fighting "so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing." In response, Rutte, standing beside Trump, joked, "And then daddy has to sometimes use strong language to get them to stop."advertisementThe remark sparked laughter among journalists and members of Trump's team, including Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. During a press briefing, a Sky News reporter asked Trump whether he saw NATO allies as his children in light of the nickname. Smiling and clearly amused, Trump replied, "No, he likes me. I think he likes me. If he doesn't, I'll let you know. I'll come back and I'll hit him hard, OK?"BREAKING: In a bizarre moment, Donald Trump defends the NATO chief calling him 'daddy.' REPORTER: 'Do you regard your NATO allies as children? TRUMP: He did it very affectionately. Daddy, you're my daddy.' What is this weird shit?? CALL TO ACTIVISM (@CalltoActivism) June 25, 2025 The White House quickly embraced the moment on social media, posting a video on X that featured footage of Trump at the summit set to Usher's song 'Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home),' along with the caption, "Daddy's home." Daddy's home Hey, hey, hey, Donald J. Trump attended the NATO Summit in The Hague, Netherlands. The White House (@WhiteHouse) June 26, 2025advertisementRUTTE CLARIFIES 'DADDY' REMARKFollowing the summit, Rutte clarified his use of the term in an interview with Reuters. He explained that the nickname was not aimed at Trump personally, but rather referred to how some European countries view the United States within the NATO alliance."In Europe, I sometimes hear countries say, 'Hey Mark, will the US stay with us?' and I said that sounds a bit like a small child asking his daddy, 'Are you still staying with the family?'" he said. "In that sense, I used the word 'daddy.' I was not calling President Trump that."When asked whether this analogy implied that other NATO members are like children who are only now maturing, Rutte responded that they have already grown up but now recognize the need to take on greater responsibility. He added that many are working to match the United States in defense spending, as part of efforts to strengthen the alliance.- EndsTune InMust Watch

ICC Rankings: Ravindra Jadeja drops out of top 10 bowlers list after Leeds performance
Ravindra Jadeja slipped out of the top 10 of the latest ICC Rankings for bowlers on Wednesday, June 25, after his lacklustre performance in the Leeds Test. India lost the match by five wickets as England took the lead in the series. Jadeja, who was the only Indian spinner in the lineup, picked up just one wicket across both innings and conceded 172 runs in 27 overs. advertisementBefore the latest update that came on Wednesday, Jadeja was in the 10th spot but has now dropped three places down to 13. Despite this, Jadeja continues to be in the No.1 spot for all-rounders in Tests as England captain Ben Stokes entered the top 5 with his work in the first Test. In the bowlers' rankings, Jasprit Bumrah continues to lead the way after taking a five-wicket haul in the first innings of the match. Kagiso Rabada, Pat Cummins, Noman Ali and Josh Hazlewood round off the top five. 'Jadeja fails to make the most out of Day 5 conditions in Leeds' One of the faults with Jadeja's bowling in Leeds was during Day 5 when he failed to use the rough patches on offer to trouble the batters. Sanjay Manjrekar was critical about this aspect and slammed Jadeja for not using his experience well. advertisement"But I am going to be critical of Ravindra Jadeja. This was a final-day pitch with rough patches for him to exploit. And while there were a couple of chances, we have to expect more from someone of his experience," said Manjrekar."These weren't typical English conditions where the pitch offers nothing. I felt he didn't use the rough nearly enough — especially against Ben Duckett. Against Ben Stokes, yes, he did make an effort. But it was only much later in Duckett's innings that Jadeja started using the rough properly." When you're dealing with experienced bowlers and seasoned batters, you expect a higher level of tactical awareness. Somewhere, I felt Jadeja was disappointing. The seamers had no help from the surface — but Jadeja at least had something in the pitch working in his favour.' India and England will square off in the second Test from July 2 in Birmingham. - EndsTune InMust Watch
