As the Israel-Iran conflict intensifies, U.S. President Donald Trump has made his most aggressive statement yet — openly dismissing a ceasefire and signaling direct military action and regime change in Tehran. Amid explosions in Iran’s capital, Trump issued a chilling statement, “Nobody knows what I’ll do… Next week will be big.” U.S. media reports now suggest that Trump has approved a strike plan on Iran, while deploying stealth bombers and the “Doomsday Plane” to reinforce military readiness. Tehran has responded with rage, calling Trump’s words “cowardly threats,” while Russian President Vladimir Putin warned against any assassination plot, publicly backing Iran’s leadership. Trump hit back at Putin, sharpening tensions on multiple fronts — from Tehran to Ukraine. As Washington signals escalation and Israel continues to strike, the world now watches closely: Will America join the war?
A full-scale war in West Asia is rapidly escalating, with Iran launching a barrage of ballistic missiles at key civilian locations in Israel. In a first, Iran’s missiles struck South Israel’s Soroka Hospital in Be’er Sheva — the region’s largest medical facility — injuring over 25 people. Residential buildings and a school in Tel Aviv were also hit, along with a direct strike on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. Israel has condemned the attack, calling it an act of terror, while Iran claimed the targets were located near Israeli military command centers. These Iranian strikes came in retaliation to Israel’s recent air raids on Tehran’s nuclear and missile sites, including the Natanz and Arak nuclear facilities. As civilian infrastructure comes under fire, tensions have hit a dangerous new high in the Middle East.

U.S. President Donald Trump slammed U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell for not lowering interest rates and said the man he put in the role during his last term had done a poor job. Trump, speaking to reporters at the White House, mused about appointing himself to lead the U.S. central bank. "Powell's too late," Trump said, referring to his desire for rate cuts. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman dismissed the criticism. "We think we're in a good place," Powell told reporters when he was asked about the messages coming from the White House. "That is what matters to us," he said. Powell also said the central bank's interest rate forecasts could change based on incoming data, especially on the inflation front.

The aftermath of the Air India crash in Ahmedabad is shaking the national carrier’s operations. As confidence among passengers dips, Business Today TV finds that Air India is offering massive discounts on international routes — especially those flown by the Boeing 787, the aircraft type involved in the crash. Fares to cities like Paris, Amsterdam, Tokyo, and Hong Kong are now shockingly low — in some cases less than half of what rivals charge. Meanwhile, the airline has announced a 15% cut in wide-body international operations, at least until mid-July. Watch this exclusive report for a detailed breakdown of routes, fare comparisons, and what this means for Air India's financial recovery plans.
Amid rising tensions between Israel and Iran, a special flight under Operation Sindhu has successfully brought 110 Indian students home. The students, evacuated from Urmia Medical University, were transited through Yerevan, Armenia, and Doha before landing safely at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport. This marks the first group to be evacuated from the conflict zone. Grateful families welcomed their children home, while urging the government to intensify efforts for those still stranded in war-affected regions, including Tehran. The evacuated students praised the swift coordination by the Embassy of India in Iran. “The embassy stayed in touch with us 24/7 through the emergency numbers, and both the Ambassador in Tehran and the Armenian authorities supported us throughout,” said one returning student. The Indian government continues to work closely with Iranian officials to ensure the safe return of all remaining citizens.
In a fiery escalation, U.S. President Donald Trump publicly warned Iran’s Supreme Leader of dire consequences, even hinting at his elimination. But instead of backing down, Ayatollah Khamenei responded with symbolic defiance—declaring “The Battle Begins” on social media and invoking the historic Battle of Khaybar. As Israeli missiles reportedly struck Lavizan—the Tehran neighborhood where Khamenei is rumored to be hiding—the war of words is fast turning into a war on the ground. Trump’s claim that Israel has “complete control” over Iranian skies has only hardened Iran’s resolve. With Iran drawing religious and historic parallels, and Israel pushing forward with targeted strikes, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Will Trump join the war effort? Could this trigger a larger regional conflict in West Asia? This report brings you the latest in this dangerous power play between Washington, Tehran, and Tel Aviv.
When Donald Trump returned to the Oval Office for his second term, his promise was clear—no new wars. But things didn’t go as planned. As the Ukraine conflict dragged on and diplomacy with Iran crumbled, Israel launched a surprise missile strike on Iran’s nuclear sites on June 13. Trump, who had earlier resisted Israeli pressure, suddenly shifted gears. In a series of explosive posts on Truth Social, Trump warned Tehran of devastating consequences and claimed full control of Iranian airspace. He even hinted at knowing the whereabouts of Iran’s Supreme Leader. As Israel's missiles pounded Iranian military targets, Trump’s carefully balanced diplomacy gave way to threats of total surrender. Will the U.S. now join the war? Is Trump about to cross the red line he once promised never to? This gripping report dives into Trump’s reversal, the crumbling of peace talks, and the volatile new chapter in the Middle East.
Donald Trump calls himself a “peacemaker” — but his actions tell a different story. From his G7 summit walkout to a blunt call from PM Modi demolishing his India-Pakistan mediation claims, to quietly entertaining Pakistan's hawkish General Asim Munir at the White House — Trump’s double game is clearer than ever. While he speaks of de-escalation with Iran, he backs Israeli strikes. He promises to end the Ukraine war in 24 hours, but alienates both Kyiv and Moscow. In a world still at war, the question is: Is Trump genuinely seeking peace, or is it all about optics and deals? Watch this in-depth report.
The ancient Keeladi site in Tamil Nadu has ignited a political storm. Over 18,000 artifacts—pottery, tools, inscriptions—unearthed here point to a thriving Tamil urban civilization that predates many others. But the DMK now accuses the Modi government of suppressing a crucial ASI report that places this civilization as early as the 5th century BC. With archaeologist Amarnath Ramakrishna transferred and the report still unpublished, the controversy has escalated into a full-blown political faceoff. Protests, accusations, and byte wars dominate Tamil Nadu politics—just as elections draw closer. Watch this ground report from Keeladi to know what’s really at stake.
United States President Donald Trump once again reiterated his claim of stopping war between India and Pakistan after Prime Minister Narendra Modi fact-checked him. "I stopped a war between Pakistan and India. I love Pakistan," he said. “Modi is a fantastic man. I spoke to him last night," he said while speaking with the reporters. Earlier, PM Modi had told the US President that India has never accepted mediation, does not accept it, and will never do so in the future. He further reiterated his trade deal plans with India. "We are going to make a trade deal with Modi of India. But I stopped a war between Pakistan and India." Trump went on to praise Pakistan's army chief Asif Munir and PM Modi and said that they were extremely influential.
It’s been nearly a week since the devastating Air India crash in Ahmedabad that claimed over 270 lives, yet the truth behind what went wrong remains unclear. As global attention focuses on the investigation, India Today has learned that the spotlight is now on the plane’s right-side engine—recently overhauled in March 2025, just three months before the tragedy. The 12-year-old Boeing 787-8 had passed a full maintenance check in June 2023 and was due for its next inspection only in December. Interestingly, in April—just weeks before the crash—Air India increased the aircraft’s insurance cover from ₹750 crore to ₹850 crore. Meanwhile, in compliance with the DGCA’s directive, Air India has conducted safety checks on 9 out of its 33 Dreamliners. The crash has also sparked political questions. Former Aviation Minister Praful Patel has questioned the silence of Singapore Airlines, which was responsible for maintaining most of Air India’s wide-body fleet. He pointed out that current Air India CEO Campbell Wilson is a nominee of Singapore Airlines, adding another layer to the growing controversy. Amid all this, the human cost is the most heartbreaking. Sole survivor Vishwas Kumar broke down as he bid a final farewell to his brother who perished in the crash. As families mourn and facts slowly emerge, one haunting question remains — how long will it take before India uncovers the real cause behind this horrific disaster?
The Israel-Iran conflict has entered a dangerously volatile phase. In a major escalation, Israel launched strikes on a nuclear centrifuge facility in Tehran — a site critical to Iran's uranium enrichment program. In response, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps fired Fattah-1 hypersonic missiles deep into Israeli territory. With missile barrages intensifying, reports suggest Israel is running low on its key Arrow interceptor stockpile, raising alarm over its defensive capacity. Meanwhile, former U.S. President Donald Trump called for Iran’s unconditional surrender. But Iran’s Supreme Leader declared, “The war has just begun,” signaling Tehran's refusal to back down. The threat of full-scale war grows louder as Iran warns that any U.S. involvement will escalate the conflict into an all-out regional war. In response, the U.S. has deployed more fighter jets to bases near the Persian Gulf. As tensions rise and retaliation continues from both ends, the world watches closely. Is this the beginning of a wider, unstoppable Middle East war?
In a bold phone call, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made it clear to U.S. President Donald Trump that India needs no mediation when it comes to Pakistan. Modi demolished Trump’s repeated claims of brokering the India-Pakistan ceasefire, stating that the ceasefire was India’s decision — taken only after Pakistan begged and pleaded. There was no mention of trade in the conversation, and the focus remained solely on terrorism. Modi underlined India’s new bold doctrine — that terror attacks will no longer be treated as proxy wars, but as acts of war. He emphasized that India has only targeted terror hubs with precision. In a diplomatic move, Modi also declined Trump’s impromptu White House invite after the G7 summit, citing prior commitments — but did extend an invitation for Trump to visit India, which the U.S. President accepted. As Trump continues to woo Pakistan, will this phone call redefine the strategic friendship between Modi and Trump?
Kunal Rambhai candidly admits missing out on the rally in Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group stocks, particularly Reliance Power and Reliance Infra, as they never fit his technical entry criteria. However, he acknowledges the clear bullish trend in these counters, especially with Reliance Power hitting upper circuits and showing a consistent higher top-higher bottom pattern. He advises those already invested to trail stop-losses instead of fixing targets, given the potential for sharp moves. On Reliance Infra, he highlights its strong price action since July 2021, climbing from ₹100 to ₹386. With solid volumes and continued momentum, the entire pack appears to be in turnaround mode. Rambhai emphasizes cautious optimism while managing risks amid volatile circuit-bound trading.
India’s aviation sector is facing turbulent skies after the tragic crash of Air India Flight 171, one of the worst disasters in the country's aviation history.
