The Trump administration has revealed new details on American air strikes on the Iranian nuclear programIncluding that the operation was years in preparation. Yesterday, during a briefing, the best military advisor to President Trump said that B-2 drivers had bombs on targets and returned safely during air strikes last weekend. A clear assessment of the damage inflicted is still not available. The evidence shows that the Trump administration has achieved its objectives on three separate nuclear sites. But Trump said the Iranian program was completely wiped out.

- 🎧 The big question that remains is the fate of 900 pounds of highly enriched uraniumGreg myre of NPR says First. The International Atomic Energy Agency Rafael Grossi said that Iranian officials had told the agency that they had taken protective measures for enriched uranium, which could mean that they hid it somewhere before the American attacks. To prepare for the strike, the United States has worked for years to develop a weapon that could reach its target at the bottom of a mountain. This led to the development of the bunker bomb of 30,000 pounds.

Today marks the last day of the Supreme Court mandate. Opinions are planned for the last six cases. Among these, some of the most important cases have argued this term, in particular a central question concerning citizenship of the right of birth. This case revolves around the constitutional sentence indicating that “all people born in the United States and subject to its jurisdiction are citizens of the United States”
- 🎧 Trump has published an executive decree saying that only some children in the United States can be citizensAnd every judge who ruled on it said he was wrong. The Ministry of Justice, probably knowing that it was going to lose this case, did not ask the court to cancel these decisions, said Nina Totenberg of NPR. The Ministry of Justice maintains rather that the judges have exceeded their authority when they made their decisions nationally. With this argument, they aim to prohibit this type of injunctions on a national scale. This would make advocacy against Trump administration policies extremely difficult.
The Trump administration says that it allocates $ 30 million to a food program in Gaza that the United Nations described as a death trap. The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a group using American entrepreneurs, distributed food boxes in four sites in Gaza a month ago as part of a plan designed by Israel. Sites attract thousands of hungry people every day. The Gaza Ministry of Health says hundreds of them have been killed and thousands of injured by trying to reach the sites since the start of operations.
- 🎧 This week, a dozen human rights and legal groups said that any country supporting GHF could potentially be responsible for the complicity of war crimes. Aya Batrawy de NPR says that part of the reason why it is so fatal to obtain food is that GHF sites are in military areas where Israeli troops are positioned. The Israeli army says that it has drawn warning plans on the crowds approaching troops, and it works to examine its processes.
