As the U.S.–Israel war with Iran enters its third week, Iranian forces have launched missile and drone strikes targeting Gulf neighbors and U.S. assets, including a strike on a U.S. embassy helipad in Baghdad and attacks near UAE ports. The U.S. continues intense counterstrikes, announcing it “obliterated” military sites on Iran’s Kharg Island, while sending thousands more Marines to the region and warning Iran to end its attacks. 

The CEOs of America’s biggest airlines are blasting Congress, demanding it restore Homeland Security funding so TSA agents and other aviation workers can get paid during the ongoing partial shutdown. They warn that spring‑break crowds, the 2026 World Cup, and America’s 250th birthday could collide with hours‑long TSA lines as hundreds of screeners quit. They’re pushing Congress to pass bipartisan bills that guarantee these workers get paid even during shutdowns.
