American citizen George Glezmann, a Delta Airlines mechanic, has been freed by the Taliban after spending more than two years in captivity in Afghanistan. Glezmann was detained in December 2022 while visiting the country as a tourist.

His release came during the Trump administration following talks involving U.S. hostage envoy Adam Boehler and Qatari mediators. Unlike an earlier January deal, no prisoner exchange was involved; the Taliban described his release as a goodwill gesture.

Houthi forces in Yemen claim three Saudi-backed brigades surrendered with weapons and equipment during recent fighting. Major Saudi-backed withdrawals have been reported, but the three-brigade surrender has not been independently verified.

🇮🇱🇱🇧 Israel Strikes Hezbollah Positions in Southern Lebanon

Israel has intensified military operations in southern Lebanon, with Israeli forces destroying a major underground Hezbollah tunnel network beneath the Ali al-Taher ridge. Israeli officials said the facility stretched for more than 2 km and contained weapons, rockets, drones and command infrastructure. The operation was described as part of efforts to establish a security zone near the Israel-Lebanon border. Large explosions were reported across surrounding areas. The escalation comes despite a U.S.-mediated framework aimed at reducing fighting and disarming Hezbollah. Tensions remain high, with continued Israeli strikes and Hezbollah activity reported in southern Lebanon.

Viral Footage Shows How Cluster Bombs Work

A video circulating online shows a fighter aircraft releasing a cluster munition, a weapon designed to open in the air and scatter numerous smaller explosive submunitions across a wide area.

The footage has been linked online to Chile, which historically produced several types of air-dropped cluster munitions. However, claims that Chile “invented” the cluster bomb are misleading. Historical records show that cluster weapons were developed and used by multiple countries long before Chile entered the field.

Chile’s former arms industry, including Cardoen Industries, did manufacture and export cluster bombs during the 1980s, including weapons supplied to Iraq.

Iran has claimed it was targeting U.S. military assets in the region in retaliation for American attacks on Iranian oil tankers. The latest exchange has raised fears of a wider regional conflict, with attacks also reported around the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. Oil prices have also surged above $100 a barrel as global markets react to the escalating crisis.
