What Happened
The world witnessed a series of significant events across different regions, reflecting ongoing tensions, humanitarian efforts, and policy shifts. In the Strait of Hormuz, a cargo ship was hit by a drone, which US President Donald Trump blamed on Iran, calling it a "foolish violation" of the ceasefire agreement. The incident occurred as the US and Iran negotiate a permanent agreement.
Meanwhile, in the realm of immigration, the Trump administration asked the US Supreme Court to allow the detention of people arrested in the immigration crackdown without the chance to seek bond, even if they have lived in the US for years. This move is part of a broader policy aimed at stricter immigration controls.
