In today's World News with Pankaj Mishra, we examine four major international developments shaping global security and geopolitics.
A mysterious claim from the hacker group Handala alleges that a senior Mossad official was killed in a vehicle bombing inside Israel, raising questions about the ongoing shadow conflict between Israel and Iran.
Meanwhile, a senior military adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader has issued a warning to Gulf nations including the UAE, Bahrain and Kuwait, accusing them of relying too heavily on American military power amid growing regional tensions.
We also look at newly released footage from aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford, the US Navy's most advanced aircraft carrier, showing extensive fire damage sustained during deployment in the Red Sea.
Finally, Britain and France are preparing an international mission to clear mines from the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most critical energy and shipping corridors, as efforts continue to restore maritime traffic following recent US-Iran tensions.
