Trump Says Iran War Is Very Complete As Oil Prices Rise

Published

on

U.S. President Donald Trump has stated that the ongoing war with Iran could soon come to an end, saying the conflict is already “very complete.”

Speaking during an interview with CBS, Trump expressed confidence that the war had progressed faster than expected.

“I think the war is very complete, pretty much… very far ahead of schedule,” he said.

Despite his remarks about the war nearing completion, the conflict has had a noticeable impact on global oil prices. Reports indicate that the price of oil has risen to about $90 per gallon amid tensions in the region.

Even as he suggested the conflict may soon end, Trump also issued a warning to Iran on social media.

He stated that if Iran attempts to block the flow of oil through the strategic Strait of Hormuz, the United States would respond strongly.

According to Trump, such a move would prompt the U.S. to make it “virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back.”

Writing on Truth social, he wrote: “If Iran does anything that stops the flow of Oil within the Strait of Hormuz, they will be hit by the United States of America TWENTY TIMES HARDER than they have been hit thus far.

“Additionally, we will take out easily destroyable targets that will make it virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back, as a Nation, again – Death, Fire, and Fury will reign upon them – But I hope, and pray, that it does not happen!

“This is a gift from the United States of America to China, and all of those Nations that heavily use the Hormuz Strait. Hopefully, it is a gesture that will be greatly appreciated”

Mother Sentenced to 13 Years in Prison After Putting Her Newborn Baby in Oven, Leading to the Baby’s Death

Published

on

A Missouri mother identified as Mariah Thomas has been sentenced to 13 years in prison after pleading guilty in connection with the death of her one-month-old daughter, Za’riah Thomas.

Follow Our WhatsApp Channel here

The tragic incident happened on February 9, 2024, when police were called to Thomas’ home in Kansas City at around 1:30pm following a report of a baby who was not breathing.

When officers arrived, they found the one-month-old baby with severe burns. Kansas City Fire Department personnel pronounced the child dead at the scene.

According to court documents, investigators were told that Mariah had intended to put her daughter down for a nap but mistakenly placed her in the oven instead of the crib.

A family member later told detectives that Mariah had said:

“I thought I put her in her crib and I accidentally put her in the oven.”
More than two years after her daughter’s death, the 28-year-old pleaded guilty on Tuesday to first-degree endangering the welfare of a child resulting in death.

Jackson County court records show that she was sentenced to 13 years in the Missouri Department of Corrections. She was not given probation and will receive credit for time already served.

Thomas had initially been charged with first-degree murder, but that charge was dismissed as part of the plea agreement.

Investigators also documented evidence from the scene, including the baby’s clothing and a blanket that had burn damage.

Thomas initially declined to speak with detectives after being informed of her rights. She later agreed to provide a blood sample and allow investigators to access information from her cellphone.

When the original charges were announced in February 2024, then-Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker described the child’s death as a “gruesome” tragedy.

“We acknowledge the gruesome nature of this tragedy, and our hearts are weighted by the loss of this precious life,” Baker said at the time. “We trust the criminal justice system to respond appropriately to these awful circumstances.”

Court records show that prosecutors later added the first-degree murder charge, which was ultimately dismissed under the plea agreement.

Thomas will now serve the 13-year prison sentence imposed by the court.

Bride-to-Be Dies After Undergoing Secret Liposuction Ahead of Her Wedding Scheduled for December

Published

on

A 35-year-old bride-to-be identified as Dulce María has died after undergoing liposuction in Mexico City ahead of her planned wedding in December.

Follow Our WhatsApp Channel here

Dulce reportedly underwent the cosmetic procedure on September 11 at an inmueble in the Del Valle area of Mexico City after finding Pink Glow Clinic through social media.

According to reports, Dulce had told her partner, Emir Kaleb, that she was going for treatment for uterine fibroids rather than revealing that she had planned to undergo liposuction.

She had reportedly been preparing for her wedding, which was scheduled for December.

Follow Our Telegram Channel here

Dulce reportedly attended a consultation on August 27 and paid around £3,300, equivalent to 80,000 Mexican pesos, in advance for the procedure.

Reports state that she had also fasted for almost 18 hours before arriving for the surgery.

However, the address where the procedure took place was different from the location where she had initially attended her consultation.

When her relatives arrived at the second location, they reportedly found what appeared to be a residential building rather than a clinic. Reports said there was no visible Pink Glow Clinic sign outside the building.
Dulce arrived at the location at around 1pm on September 11.

About two and a half hours later, her family was urgently contacted and asked to come to the location after her condition deteriorated.

According to the family, a doctor told them that Dulce had suffered significant blood loss before going into cardiorespiratory arrest. Her body was later removed by forensic officers after 7pm, and authorities secured the premises.

Her partner, Emir Kaleb, said a staff member came out with Dulce’s belongings several hours after she entered the building and instructed him to call an ambulance.

He also claimed that staff members attempted to resuscitate her using oxygen and chest compressions but appeared not to have the emergency equipment he expected to see.
Mexican authorities have launched an investigation into Dulce’s death and secured the property where the procedure took place.

Reports state that prosecutors are investigating suspected negligent homicide and other possible offences. No confirmed arrest had been reported in the available reports, and the identity of the person who performed the procedure had not been publicly released.

Dulce’s family also raised concerns about the conditions surrounding the procedure. Her sister reportedly noticed needle marks beneath her ribs and on her buttocks, although the significance of those marks has not been officially established.

The family further said Dulce had expressed concerns that the facility did not have a blood bank.

They also claimed that a doctor had been “very rough” during a pre-operative test involving cannulas and needle punctures.

Dulce’s son, Didier González, paid tribute to his mother and described her as a “warrior.”

The social media accounts associated with Pink Glow Clinic were later reported to have removed their posts.

James Groves Jailed for 20 Years After Being Convicted of Raping Girl Nine Times

Published

on

James Groves, 51, also known as April, has been sentenced to 20 years and six months in prison after being convicted of multiple child sex offences involving a vulnerable girl.

Groves was convicted at Bristol Crown Court of 18 child sex offences and one count of attempting to pervert the course of justice.

Follow Our WhatsApp Channel here

The court heard that Groves sexually abused the girl over a number of years while she was still a child, including raping her nine times.

The victim, whose identity is protected, told the court about the lasting impact the abuse had on her childhood. Police praised her for what they described as her exceptional bravery in coming forward.

She said: “I am just a shell of my former self. I don’t remember chunks of my childhood because of what Groves did, and this is because of the trauma I have been through.

“People have said to me that I am not the bright, bubbly girl I once was.

“I have lost my childhood. I will never get it back.

The offences came to light after Groves was arrested over inappropriate communication with a child. Following the arrest, the victim disclosed that she had been sexually abused and raped by him over several years.

“I did not feel like it was enough for me to contact the police” the victim added

Groves was subsequently arrested in connection with the abuse while he was in custody.

Police carried out a detailed investigation, while specialist support services were provided to the victim. Groves was charged in October last year, convicted by a jury in June and sentenced on September 9.

The jury unanimously found Groves, who was named as James Groves on the indictment and referred to as James during the sentencing hearing, guilty of 19 separate non-recent offences, including nine counts of rape.

In addition to his prison sentence, Groves will remain subject to a Sexual Harm Prevention Order indefinitely.

It Is Unacceptable – Italy Moves to Ban Niqabs and Burqas in Schools

Published

on

Italy is preparing new measures that would ban burqas and niqabs in schools and place a limit on the number of foreign students allowed in individual classrooms.

Follow Our WhatsApp Channel here

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni announced the proposed measures on Sunday, September 20, 2026, while speaking at an event organised by Gioventù Nazionale, the youth wing of her Brothers of Italy party.

Meloni said the package would soon be presented to the Italian cabinet. The proposals would also require parents of pupils experiencing “serious difficulties integrating” into the Italian school system to learn the Italian language.

Follow Our Facebook Page here

The government has not yet announced the exact number of foreign students that would be permitted in each classroom. Current reporting puts non-Italian citizens at about 11.6% of students in Italy’s schools.

Speaking at the event, Meloni said:

“It is unacceptable that in an Italian classroom the children who end up feeling pushed into a corner are Italian children because they have become the minority. That cannot be allowed,”

She also criticised what she described as the use of the term integration when children struggle to participate fully in the Italian education system.

“Calling all this integration is yet another lie, a convenient lie for those who live off ideology, for those who preach to us from their living rooms and then send their own children to schools where this problem does not exist.”

Meloni’s announcement concerns proposed legislation and does not mean that the restrictions are already in force. The measures would need to go through the Italian legislative process before becoming law.

The proposal specifically mentions burqas and niqabs, which cover the face. It does not propose a general ban on the hijab, which leaves the face uncovered.

Italy’s proposal comes as other European countries have already introduced restrictions on face coverings. France and Belgium have bans covering face concealment in public places, while Austria has restrictions involving face coverings in schools.

The proposed measures are expected to generate further discussion in Italy over immigration, education, religious clothing and the integration of foreign-born families into the country’s school system.

Teenager Jailed for 4 Years in UK for Recording and Selling Child Abuse Material to Paedophiles

Published

on

Nigerian teenager Gift Ayoola has been sentenced to four years in prison by Cardiff Crown Court in the United Kingdom after admitting to offences involving the sexual exploitation of children online.

Follow Our WhatsApp Channel here

The 19-year-old was sentenced on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, after pleading guilty to causing or inciting children to engage in sexual activity, making and distributing indecent images of children, and possessing extreme pornography.

Follow Our Facebook Page here

The court heard that Ayoola used online communications to target children, encouraged them to engage in sexual activities during video calls and recorded some of the interactions before distributing the material to other offenders.

According to evidence presented in court, one offender paid Ayoola £5,000 for images and videos. He was also found to have been involved in online groups on Telegram and WhatsApp where indecent images of children were distributed.

Ayoola was first arrested at his home in Cardiff in January 2025 after police seized several electronic devices. Investigators found hundreds of indecent images of children on the devices, including 455 Category A images, 401 Category B images and 389 Category C images.

The court was also told that Ayoola had been involved in communications with children online, including a 12-year-old girl. Prosecutors presented evidence of further interactions involving children between the ages of 11 and 13 and a younger child.

Police arrested Ayoola again on March 5, 2026, and discovered additional indecent images involving children, including material involving children as young as four.

During police questioning, Ayoola admitted sharing and sending the material and said financial pressure had influenced his actions. His defence lawyer, Martha Smith-Higgins, told the court that he had lost his mother when he was six years old and later moved from Nigeria to the UK. She also said he was remorseful.

However, Judge Vanessa Francis rejected the suggestion that the offences were not sexually motivated.

The judge said:

“The children you exploited were much younger than you, some were very young indeed. These children required protection and you were encouraging them to pose for extremely harmful material. This was a grievous form of sexual abuse.

“These were not simply images; they were children whose trust and vulnerability were exploited in order to make sexual material.”

In addition to the four-year prison sentence, Ayoola will be subject to sex offender notification requirements indefinitely. He has also been placed under a Sexual Harm Prevention Order for 10 years.
