Senate Republicans pushed back against a leaked report that President Donald Trump’s strikes on Iran did not obliterate the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program, but still wanted more information on the full extent of the damage done to the key facilities.

A widely reported ‘low confidence’ assessment from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) suggested that the weekend strikes, dubbed Operation Midnight Hammer, did not completely destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Trump has remained firm that the sites were ‘totally obliterated,’ and the White House has strongly pushed back against the report. And both the Israeli and Iranian governments agree that the sites were badly damaged.

Members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and Senate Armed Services Committee told Fox News Digital that they were confident in the president’s assessment and pushed back against the DIA’s findings.

‘First of all, one of the things I’d consider is the DIA said that Ukraine would be wiped out in three days,’ Sen. Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., told Fox News Digital. ‘And second, whatever the damage to Fordow is, the damage to the [nuclear] capabilities of Iran are devastating.’

Cramer said that the effectiveness of the bombing, which was carried out by several B-2 bombers armed with bunker-busting bombs, could not be ‘overstated,’ and warned that lingering questions surrounding the effectiveness of the operation were just ‘fodder for political discussion.’

‘I think the mission was accomplished,’ he said.

Senate Armed Services Committee Chair Roger Wicker, R-Miss., had not yet read the report, but called the DIA’s finding and subsequent news reports ‘bogus.’ Wicker’s sentiment came just after Senate Republicans met behind closed doors with Israeli Ambassador Yechiel Leiter.

‘We just spoke to the Israeli ambassador to the United States just a few moments ago, and his assessment is that their capability has been destroyed for years,’ Wicker said.

Still, just how damaged the nuclear facilities are, particularly the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant buried deep under layers of rock, is a question lawmakers want answered and believe would only come from a true boots-on-the-ground assessment.

Senators are set to receive a briefing Thursday afternoon from Trump officials on the strikes, and expect to learn more about the true extent of the damage.

Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., told Fox News Digital that he’d seen all the evidence and there was not ‘an inconsistency’ between the president’s assertions and the materials he had seen.

He said that the briefing would allow lawmakers ‘a chance from multiple sources to glean what’s actually down deep underneath,’ but noted that until more clear information was available, absolute confirmation of the total damage wrought by the bombs was not complete.

Whether another strike should be authorized should further intelligence show that the program was not fully destroyed, Rounds said, ‘another strike depends on what the other options would be.’

‘I don’t think you ever take anything off the table for the president, but there might be other ways of handling it as well, because we’ve really opened that place up now,’ he said.

A group of House Republicans is demanding details on how government agencies are addressing the growing threat of unauthorized drone incursions on U.S. military installations. 

In letters sent Thursday, the Subcommittee on Military and Foreign Affairs requested a trove of documents and communications from the Departments of Defense (DoD), Transportation (DOT), and Justice (DOJ). 

The letters note that in 2024 alone, there were 350 drone incursions at over 100 U.S. military bases. 

Lawmakers believe many of the responses to the illegal incursions, including an instance where a group of drones traipsed over Langley Air Force Base for over two weeks in December 2023, have been insufficient and fragmented. 

Under current rules, base commanders must establish ‘hostile intent’ before taking action — a threshold the lawmakers say is ill-suited to fast-moving and ambiguous drone threats.

Coordination between military installations, the DOJ, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and local law enforcement is often ‘improvised and bureaucratically delayed,’ the letter states, leaving gaps that adversaries could exploit.

To assess the issue, Republicans are asking the agencies to turn over documents by July 10, including: all interagency policies and agreements on drone detection and mitigation; a list of all facilities protected under Title 10 Section 130(i); communications involving DoD, DOJ, FAA, and others about drone threats and authority gaps; all incident reports related to drone incursions since January 2022; any internal reviews assessing current legal frameworks and recommending reforms; plans for a joint federal-state-local task force on counter-drone coordination.

Fox News Digital has reached out to DoD, DOJ, and DOT for comment.

The lawmakers frame their demands as part of a broader push for legislative reform and operational clarity in the face of escalating drone threats to national security. ‘This is a rapidly evolving threat that requires a unified and proactive response,’ the letter states, emphasizing the need for better data sharing and resource allocation between agencies.

The threat comes at a time when the lethal capabilities of modern drone warfare have been proven on the ground in Ukraine and in the Middle East.

From the early days of Russia’s 2022 invasion, unmanned aerial systems (UAS) have been deployed with devastating effect by both Russian and Ukrainian forces, transforming how battles are fought and how intelligence is gathered. What began as surveillance and artillery-spotting platforms has evolved into a full-scale integration of explosive-laden loitering munitions, or ‘kamikaze drones,’ capable of precision strikes deep behind enemy lines.

One of the most notorious platforms is the Iranian-made Shahed-136, a low-cost, GPS-guided drone that Russia has used in swarms to overwhelm Ukrainian air defenses and strike civilian infrastructure, including power stations and residential areas. These drones, launched in waves, have been used to sow terror and inflict strategic damage while costing a fraction of conventional missiles. Ukraine, for its part, has responded with creative adaptations, converting consumer camera drones into improvised bombers and launching strikes on Russian trenches, vehicles, and even naval assets in the Black Sea.

Israel used drones alongside warplanes to assault top generals and key military and nuclear facilities in Operation Rising Lion this month. Iran fired back its own onslaught of drones toward Israel.

Military analysts have said Ukraine represents the first major war where drones are central to strategy, not just supporting tools. Their widespread deployment has forced a tactical rethink, prompted innovations in electronic warfare and counter-UAS systems, and prompted debate about how quickly drones may outpace manned aircraft in aerial combat.

A Senate Republican wants to see the Senate parliamentarian fired and plans to introduce a resolution that would require the position to be term-limited.

Fury erupted among conservatives Thursday morning following the news that Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough ruled several key reforms and tweaks to Medicaid in the Senate GOP’s version of President Donald Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ did not pass muster with Senate rules.

That means that the current provisions that do not comply with the Byrd Rule must be stripped, but Republicans can still scramble to rewrite and resubmit the policy to the parliamentarian.

However, Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., wants immediate action taken against the parliamentarian.

‘In 2001, Majority Leader Trent Lott fired the Senate parliamentarian during reconciliation,’ Marshall told Fox News Digital. ‘It’s 2025 during reconciliation, and we need to again fire the Senate parliamentarian.’

He argued that, based upon early reports, the parliamentarian’s rulings against myriad provisions in the bill may erase up to $500 billion in spending cuts, which could hamper the bill’s survival among fiscal hawks and miss the goal of hitting up to $2 trillion in spending cuts over the next decade. 

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., has made clear that he did not intend to overrule the parliamentarian. Fox News Digital reached out to the top Senate Republican for comment.

Marshall, like other congressional Republicans, was particularly incensed over the parliamentarian’s rulings that gutted numerous changes Senate Republicans made to the widely-used Medicaid program that triggered conservatives.

Among the axed provisions was the Senate GOP’s harsher crackdown on the Medicaid provider rate, or the amount that state Medicaid programs pay to providers on behalf of Medicaid beneficiaries, which proved a divisive policy among some in the conference.

Other provisions that were nixed included denying states Medicaid funding for having illegal immigrants on the benefit rolls, preventing illegal immigrants from participating in Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and preventing Medicaid and CHIP funding from going toward gender-affirming care.

Republicans viewed those as key cost-saving changes, and their removal has likely set back their plan to put the mammoth bill on Trump’s desk by July 4.

The parliamentarian is chosen by the Senate majority leader and serves without term limits in the role.

Marshall wants to put an end to that practice and plans to introduce a resolution on Thursday that would only be allowed to serve one, six-year term.

‘The current parliamentarian has been in office since 2012, appointed by Harry Reid,’ Marshall said. ‘This is NOT an elected position. Power tends to corrupt,  and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Term limits on a person with this absolute power need be implemented.’

Conservative lawmakers were infuriated on Thursday morning after the Senate’s de facto ‘scorekeeper’ for President Donald Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ ruled that key parts of the GOP agenda bill must be stripped out.

‘The Senate Parliamentarian is not elected. She is not accountable to the American people. Yet she holds veto power over legislation supported by millions of voters,’ Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., wrote on X. ‘It is time for our elected leaders to take back control.’

He called on Vice President JD Vance to ‘overrule the Parliamentarian and let the will of the people, not some staffer hiding behind Senate procedure, determine the future of this country.’

The Constitution names the vice president as president of the Senate as well, though it is a largely ceremonial role save for when they are needed to cast a tie-breaking vote in the chamber.

The Senate parliamentarian is typically appointed by the Senate majority leader and serves at their pleasure, with no term limit. 

Their role is to make apolitical judgments about Senate rules and procedure. In the budget reconciliation process, which Republicans are working through now, the parliamentarian’s job is to rule on whether aspects of the bill fall within the necessary guidelines to qualify for reconciliation’s simple majority passage threshold.

However, with several rulings that found key portions of Trump’s agenda do not fall into reconciliation’s budgetary guidelines, Republicans on the other side of Capitol Hill – in the House of Representatives – are urging the Senate to break norms and disregard several of the parliamentarian’s decisions.

‘They ought to heed the advice of the president – don’t change the bill,’ Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., told Fox News Digital earlier this week. 

Meanwhile, Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., even called for the parliamentarian to be fired.

‘The Senate Parliamentarian also ruled that ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS are eligible for federal student loans. Does she not realize that our student loan crisis is already out of control??? ZERO taxpayer dollars should go towards student loans for ILLEGALS,’ he wrote on X.

‘THE SENATE PARLIAMENTARIAN SHOULD BE FIRED ASAP.’

And Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., told Fox News Digital, ‘The House Freedom Caucus fought tooth and nail for Medicaid reforms that would save taxpayers billions and protect the program for those who truly need it. But now, the unelected parliamentarian has struck down key provisions of [the bill.]’

‘The Senate must act quickly to correct this failure,’ Burlison said.

Rep. Jeff Van Drew, R-N.J., wrote on X on Wednesday evening, ‘Respecting the rules matters, but so does respecting the voters. They didn’t give an unelected staffer the power to decide what is in the budget—that’s the job of Congress.’

‘It doesn’t have to be this way. The Republicans senators are not required to adhere to anything she says,’ Van Drew said.

Rep. Keith Self, R-Texas, said on the platform, ‘The rogue Senate Parliamentarian should be overruled, just like activist judges.’

Despite calls from irate House Republicans and some senators, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., has stood firm in his position that he would not seek to overrule the parliamentarian.

‘That would not be a good outcome for getting a bill done,’ he told reporters. 

When asked about the parliamentarian’s ruling on the provider taxes, Thune said that there were things that Republicans can do to get ‘to that same outcome.’ 

‘I mean, we may not have everything that we want in terms of provider tax reforms, but if we can get most of the reforms there, get the savings that come with it,’ he said. ‘This is all about saving taxpayers money and reforming these programs in a way that makes them not only more fiscally sustainable long-term, but strengthening and getting rid of the waste, fraud, and abuse in the programs.’

Senate Democrats vowed to inflict as much pain as possible through the process known as the ‘Byrd Bath,’ which tests if each provision, line-by-line, is compliant with the Byrd Rule that governs the budget reconciliation process. 

So far, Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough has ruled several key provisions, including oil and gas leasing, public land sales, changes to the cost-sharing formula for food benefits, among others, as being out of compliance with the Byrd Rule. 

However, it was a slew of rulings unveiled Thursday morning the gutted numerous changes Senate Republicans made to the widely-used Medicaid program that triggered conservatives. 

Among the axed provisions was the Senate GOP’s harsher crackdown on the Medicaid provider rate, or the amount that state Medicaid programs pay to providers on behalf of Medicaid beneficiaries, which proved even a divisive policy among some in the conference. 

Other provisions that were nixed included denying states Medicaid funding for having illegal immigrants on the benefit rolls, preventing illegal immigrants from participating in Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and preventing Medicaid and CHIP funding from going toward gender-affirming care. 

Republicans viewed those as key cost-saving changes, and their removal has likely set back their plan to put the mammoth bill on Trump’s desk by July 4.

Five months into Vice President JD Vance’s tenure inside the White House, Fox News Digital spoke to several of his colleagues about his specific role and accomplishments, including some that his peers say have been overlooked by most media outlets. 

Several in Vance’s political circle used words like ‘Swiss army knife’ and ‘utility player’ to describe a vice president, who they say flexibly steps into a variety of roles, including being a key voice on Capitol Hill guiding the president’s Cabinet nominees successfully through the Senate.

‘He was very much involved in that, he made phone calls, he listened to people, he provided advice and thoughts and would talk things out with people,’ GOP Sen. Marsha Blackburn said, adding that Vance does not get enough credit for the ‘level of engagement’ with his former colleagues in the Senate. 

Ohio GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno told Fox News Digital that Vance has been an ‘enforcer’ in the Senate, not just when it came to confirming President Donald Trump’s Cabinet in a heated political climate, but also playing a significant role helping the president’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ make its way through Congress. 

If he [Trump] needs help with nominees, he is going to come over and do that, if he needs help with a Big Beautiful Bill, because obviously President Trump has got a lot on his plate, he’ll come over to talk to his colleagues,’ Moreno said. ‘If he has to lobby one on one, he’s built good relationships.’

Moreno, who ran against Vance for Senate in 2022 before dropping out and endorsing him and then running successfully in 2024 with Vance’s endorsement, went on to say that he has not heard ‘one negative comment’ from Republicans in the Senate about Vance’s performance.

In fact, one senator said to me today that their impression after the lunch yesterday was that he really started to look really presidential and how impressive he is,’ Moreno said. 

A senior White House official praised Vance’s ‘direct impact’ in the Senate when it comes to legislative efforts and Cabinet confirmations, adding that Trump’s domestic agenda is where his ‘impact has been felt the most.’ 

JD Vance throughout the whole transition, was always going to bat for Hegseth and for different nominees,’ the official said. ‘So he played a very active role making sure all the various Cabinet officials got confirmed.’

Vance’s influence has been felt on the foreign policy front, as well as the vice president making high-profile trips to India, the Vatican and Germany outlining the president’s ‘America First’ agenda. 

In India, Vance was involved with and touted progress made toward a U.S.-India trade deal, saying a partnership between the Trump administration and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi would ensure a 21st century that’s ‘prosperous and peaceful.’ 

Vance delivered a speech in Germany in February when he directly called out the organizers of the Munich conference, who he said had ‘banned lawmakers representing populist parties on both the left and the right from participating in these conversations.’

The speech sparked a social media firestorm, drawing criticism from some and praise from others, including Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley, who described Vance’s remarks as a ‘Churchillian’ moment for free speech. 

As the war between Russia and Ukraine raged on, Vance took an active role in the dialogue between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and was front and center in the viral White House blowup between the two leaders, calling out the Ukrainian leader for ‘lack of respect.’

Vance, who has been labeled as an ‘attack dog’ for Trump dating back to the campaign trail last year, gave several interviews outlining his belief that, at the time, Zelenskyy was impeding the peace process. 

Former Trump senior advisor Jason Miller told Fox News Digital that Vance has been influential when it comes to helping promote the president’s foreign policy agenda.’

That influence was on full display in recent weeks as the United States bombed several nuclear sites in Iran, causing a stir with conservatives on social media on the merits of getting involved in a foreign conflict after Trump and Vance campaigned against drawn-out foreign wars of the past. 

‘Going into the conflict with Iran, I think was pretty notable for a couple of things. One, just the fact that the way he was elevated and was at the president’s side for the entire time, really how he had a seat at the table as part of the decision-making and the driving force for what happened,’ Miller said. 

‘But then also, the fact that the vice president played such an important role of talking to people from across the MAGA coalition, people who are very much into America First and may have initially been skeptical with regard to Iran and being kind of the one of the main people in the admin who can kind of talk with both camps,’ he continued. ‘And as we saw with his Twitter posts both before the action and then even afterwards being able to really articulate, lay out the rationale for what President Trump is doing and make sure that the people across the coalition have a clear understanding of it.’

Vance was front and center following the strike on Iran, sitting down for an interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier on ‘Special Report’ outlining the reasoning for the strike as news broke that a ceasefire had been negotiated with the countries involved. 

The White House official told Fox News Digital that when the president ‘calls a play,’ Vance ‘makes sure it’s run’ even if the two may have a different perspective, which is a sentiment that Miller echoed, saying that Trump promotes a ‘team environment’ to get perspective from all sides, even though he is ultimately the one who makes the final decision.

I think that the president and the vice president are very much in lockstep when it comes to the ultimate goals that they’re trying to accomplish,’ Miller said. 

In terms of the media’s portrayal of the relationship between Trump and Vance, Moreno told Fox News Digital that ‘any story that says there’s daylight between what Trump believes and what JD believes can be rejected out of hand, because it’s not actually how it works.’

‘JD doesn’t view himself as the person who’s there to enact his agenda. He’s there to enact President Trump’s agenda.’

When it comes to Vance’s accomplishments on foreign and domestic policy in the first five months of the administration, both Miller and Moreno expressed the belief that the vice president has gotten more done in half a year than former Vice President Kamala Harris accomplished in four years. 

You’re talking about literally polar opposites between her and JD,’ Moreno said. ‘Even a mentally diminished Biden understood what a great liability Kamala Harris was, he basically froze her and put her in the basement. President Trump realizes, because he’s a very smart guy, because he’s the one that made the decision to pick JD Vance realizes that JD is very effective for him and isn’t looking to overshadow or take the spotlight, but rather move his agenda forward.’

Miller agreed, saying that ‘Vice President Vance is easily the best vice president and most notable Vice President we’ve had in the last 30 plus years and is light years of improvement over Kamala Harris.’

While speculation has run rampant about what the Republican Party will look like after Trump completes his second term and whether Vance is the heir apparent in a crowded Republican field, Miller told Fox News Digital that Vance is not focused on that but has been ‘crushing it’ on the campaign trail raising money for the party. 

He’s a huge draw out on the midterm fundraising trail and he’s someone who many people view as the future of the movement,’ Miller said. 

Ultimately, Moreno told Fox News Digital that he does not think Vance gets enough credit for being one of the most ‘grounded’ politicians he has encountered who genuinely cares for his friends and family and always keeps his humble beginnings in Middletown, Ohio, at the forefront of the decisions he makes. 

‘America First, and I said it when I nominated him in Wisconsin, it’s not a political slogan, it’s his North Star,’ Moreno said. ‘It’s why he is doing what he’s doing. I don’t think people realize that. I think people don’t know enough about him as a man.’

Germany is cutting financial support for charities that rescue migrants at risk of drowning in the Mediterranean, saying it will redirect resources to addressing conditions in source countries that spur people to leave.

For decades, migrants driven by war and poverty have made perilous crossings to reach Europe’s southern borders, with thousands estimated to die every year in their bid to reach a continent grown increasingly hostile to migration.

“Germany is committed to being humane and will help where people suffer but I don’t think it’s the foreign office’s job to finance this kind of sea rescue,” Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul told a news conference.

“We need to be active where the need is greatest,” he added, mentioning the humanitarian emergency in war-shattered Sudan.

Under the previous left-leaning government, Germany began paying around 2 million euros ($2.34 million) annually to non-governmental organizations carrying out rescues of migrant-laden boats in trouble at sea.

For them, it has been a key source of funds: Germany’s Sea-Eye, which said rescue charities have saved 175,000 lives since 2015, received around 10% of its total income of around 3.2 million euros from the German government.

Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s conservatives won February’s national election after a campaign promising to curb irregular migration, which some voters in Europe’s largest economy see as being out of control.

Even though the overall numbers have been falling for several years, many Germans blame migration-related fears for the rise of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), now the second largest party in parliament.

Many experts say that migration levels are mainly driven by economic and humanitarian emergencies in the source countries, with the official cold shoulder in destination countries having had little impact in deterring migrants.

Despite this, German officials suggest that sea rescues only incentivize people to risk the sometimes deadly crossings.

“The (government) support made possible extra missions and very concretely saved lives,” said Gorden Isler, Sea-Eye’s chairperson. “We might now have to stay in harbor despite emergencies.”

The opposition Greens, who controlled the foreign office when the subsidies were introduced, criticized the move.

“This will exacerbate the humanitarian crisis and deepen human suffering,” said joint floor leader Britta Hasselmann.

Israeli forces shot dead a Palestinian teenager in the West Bank on Wednesday, Palestinian health authorities said, as settler violence against Palestinians surged in the occupied territory.

The military shot 15-year-old Rayan Tamer Hawshiya in the neck, the Ministry of Health in Ramallah said, after troops raided Al Yamoun, near Jenin. Residents in the northern town reported “heavy Israeli gunfire,” according to the minstry.

The Israeli military said that “terrorists hurled explosive devices at IDF forces” in Al Yamoun on Wednesday, adding that no IDF injuries were reported.

Separately, a 66-year-old Palestinian woman died from injuries after Israeli police shot her in the head in occupied East Jerusalem, according to local media reports.

Zahia Joudeh al-Obeidi “succumbed to her wounds” after Israeli police stormed Shuafat refugee camp, Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.

Israeli police said they launched an investigation into the circumstances of the death of an “East Jerusalem resident,” adding that the resident was “pronounced dead” by medical officials upon arrival at Shuafat checkpoint.

The killings came on the heels of a spate of attacks in the West Bank town of Kafr Malik, where Israeli settlers set fire to Palestinian homes and vehicles in what one Israeli opposition politician called a “violent Jewish pogrom.” Several people were killed and wounded, according to Palestinian and Israeli authorities.

The details of the deaths in Kafr Malik are unclear. The Palestinian foreign ministry said the settlers opened fire on Palestinian residents, while Israeli authorities said there was a firefight between Palestinian gunmen and Israeli security forces.

At least three Palestinians were killed and several were wounded, according to Palestinian officials. The Israeli military said “several” people were killed in the central town, but did not specify whether they were Palestinian or Israeli.

Israel has ramped up military operations in the West Bank, displacing thousands of Palestinians and razing entire communities as it targets what it says are militants operating in the territory.

Last year, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said the state “must deal with the threat (in the West Bank) just as we deal with the terrorist infrastructure in Gaza, including the temporary evacuation of Palestinian residents.” He later warned that the tens of thousands of Palestinians who have fled their West Bank homes would not be allowed to return.

Human Rights Watch has accused Israel of inflicting “massive, deliberate displacement of Palestinian civilians” and making “much of the territory unlivable” in violation of international law.

Israeli settlers have also increased attacks on Palestinian communities and their properties, according to the United Nations’ human rights office.

Israeli troops or settlers have killed at least 947 Palestinians, among them 200 children, in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, between October 7, 2023 and June 12, the UN reported on June 20. Between October 7, 2023 and June 26, at least 39 Israeli civilians have been killed in the West Bank, according to Israeli government officials.

Israel has occupied the West Bank since seizing the territory from Jordan in 1967. In late May, the Israeli government approved the largest expansion of Jewish settlements in the area in decades. The settlements are considered illegal under international law,

‘Stripped of basic dignity’

The IDF said security forces were deployed to the scene after “dozens of Israeli civilians” had set properties on fire. On arrival, the IDF said, the security forces were met with gunfire and rocks hurled by what it described as “terrorists” and they returned fire.

“Hits were identified, and it was later reported that there were several individuals injured and fatalities,” the IDF said, adding that five Israelis were arrested.

Israeli opposition politician Yair Golan condemned the settler attack, saying: “What happened this evening in Kafr Malik was a violent Jewish pogrom – dozens of rioters set fire to homes and vehicles, and assaulted Palestinians and security forces.”

Shortly after the violence in Kafr Malik, there was another settler attack close to the nearby village of Taybeh, according to the Israeli rights organization B’Tselem, which shared footage of masked men torching a parked car. Three people were injured and three cars were set on fire, it said.

A third settler attack took place around Jericho, according to the Palestine Red Crescent Society, which said eight people were injured due to smoke inhalation after a house was set on fire.

A UN official warned there has been “no respite” for Palestinian people in the northern West Bank, where he accused Israel of imposing “systematic forced displacement” on refugee communities in “violation of international law.”

“Out of the spotlight of the regional escalation, camps in the northern West Bank have faced ongoing destruction, with dozens of buildings demolished in the last twelve days,” Roland Friedrich, the director of affairs for UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestine refugees in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, posted on X on Wednesday.

“Even now, Israeli security forces are continuing to demolish homes and buildings in Jenin, Tulkarm, and Nur Shams camps. Stripped of basic dignity, many families have not even been able to save their belongings ahead of anticipated bulldozing.”

Saga Metals Corp. (‘SAGA’ or the ‘Company’) (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H) a North American exploration company focused on critical mineral discovery, is pleased to announce the mobilization and commencement of its 2025 summer field program at the 100% owned Radar Titanium Property (the ‘Property’) in Labrador, Canada.

Field crews arrived on site on June 17 and have initiated ground-based geophysical surveys targeting future high-priority drill targets. Concurrently, the team is constructing an access trail along the full 20 km strike extent of the Dykes River Intrusion oxide layering zone. Mobilizing drill rigs to the Trapper Zone is a first construction priority (see Figure 1 below).

The road and trail construction aims to provide direct access to both the eastern Hawkeye Zone and the western extent of the Trapper Zone. This strategic roadwork will significantly enhance logistical efficiency and exploration capacity across the entire 20 km oxide layering zone.

Figure 1

Figure 1: Detail of the Radar Titanium Project showcasing the road network from the Hawkeye Zone to the Trapper Zone and location of SAGA’s 2025 field programs.

SAGA’s field team is actively clearing overgrown sections of the historic forestry road to enable access for trucks and heavy equipment to the western areas of the Property. The program began with a 6-tonne excavator, while a larger 25-tonne unit is currently in transit and will be used to complete the remaining clearing work. Once operational, the 25-tonne excavator will also be deployed to construct a new access trail extending from the northwest end of the Trapper Zone, following the oxide layering zone southward before turning east toward the western anomalies within the Hawkeye Zone. This strategically designed, drill-compatible trail is a key component of SAGA’s infrastructure development, enabling efficient mobilization of diamond drilling equipment to high-priority targets and supporting cost-effective execution of future drilling campaigns.

Magnetic and Electromagnetic (EM) Survey over the ‘Trapper Zone’

As previously reported, targeted VLF-EM (Very Low Frequency electromagnetic survey) and magnetic surveys from Q4 2024 successfully defined drill targets for our maiden drill program over the Hawkeye zone. Now, our crews are targeting the Trapper zone that returned one of the highest responses in the regional airborne magnetic survey. SAGA has mobilized two geophysical crews to ensure complete survey coverage across the Trapper Zone within the next four weeks. Planned is a highly detailed magnetic and VLF-EM-survey over the northern anomaly of the Trapper zone.

Due to the strength of the magnetic anomaly detected over the Trapper zone, SAGA’s geological team has had to continually recalibrate the geophysics instruments. To mitigate this, the Company has mobilized an additional instrument and expanded the team with two more personnel.

The survey employs a 25-meter station spacing along lines separated by 50 meters, allowing for detailed mapping of magnetic and conductive features associated with magnetite mineralization. This high-resolution approach is critical for accurately defining subsurface targets and enhancing confidence in drill planning for this promising western extension. The ultimate objective is to develop a magnetic inversion model—comparable to that successfully used at Hawkeye—to guide follow-up drilling along the broader 20-kilometre oxide layering trend.

Figure 3

Figure 3: SAGA’s field team conducting the magnetic and electromagnetic survey, including Very Low Frequency (VLF-EM) on the Radar Titanium Project

Michael Garagan, CGO & Director of SAGA, comments: We are fortunate to have exceptional infrastructure at the Radar Titanium project. The ability to complete low-cost maintenance on the forestry road and access trail into the Trapper zone will only further enhance the cost-effectiveness of future programs, adding tremendous value to shareholders. We are excited to have two teams conducting geophysics over the Trapper zone, with interpretations expected by mid-summer. As I previously mentioned, early indications suggest the Trapper zone contains some of the strongest magnetic anomalies, and we’ll be utilizing the magnetic inversions to delineate drill targets similar to the Hawkeye Zone.’

The Property is well serviced by road access and is conveniently located near the town of Cartwright, Labrador. A compilation of historical aeromagnetic anomalies is shown. SAGA has demonstrated the reliability of the regional airborne magnetic surveys after ground-truthing and drilling in the 2024 and 2025 field programs.

Radar Ti-V-Fe Project Overview:

The Company’s 100%-owned Radar Property is located 10 km from the coastal city of Cartwright, Labrador, benefiting from tremendous infrastructure, including road access, deep-water port, airstrip and nearby hydro-electric power. The Radar Property comprises 24,175 hectares and entirely encloses the Dykes River intrusive complex, mapped at 160 km² on the surface.

The Dykes River intrusive complex is a recently recognized Mesoproterozoic layered mafic intrusion (Gower, 2017). It has gained attention due geological similarities to large AMCG-type intrusions and a very extensive titanium–vanadium–iron (Ti-V-Fe) rich layer.

Radar Ti-V-Fe Project 2025 Winter Drill Program Highlights:

  • Analytical results have been received on all seven diamond drill holes from the 2025 winter program.
  • Combined with petrographic analysis, these assays confirm that the primary economic mineral is vanadiferous titanomagnetite, favourable for simplified metallurgical processing.
  • Notable intercepts of vanadiferous titanomagnetite from the 2025 winter drill program include:
    • 20.2 meters grading 31.35% Fe , 6.32% TiO₂ , and 0.435% V₂O₅ in HEZ-07
    • 57.7 meters grading 27.09% Fe, 5.305% TiO₂, and 0.365% V₂O₅ in HEZ-07
    • 25.0 meters grading 19.92% Fe , 4.14% TiO₂ , and 0.213% V₂O₅ in HEZ-05
    • 31.5 meters grading 25.95% Fe, 5.34% TiO 2 and 0.28% V 2 O 5 in HEZ-01
    • 50 meters grading 24.49% Fe, 4.74% TiO 2 and 0.305 % V 2 O 5 in HEZ-04
    • 28 meters grading 20.11% Fe, 4.22% TiO₂, and 0.214% V₂O₅ in HEZ-06
    • 37 meters grading 12.4% Fe, 4.17% TiO₂, and 0.069% V₂O₅ in HEZ-02
    • 55 meters grading 11.37% Fe, 4.07% TiO₂, and 0.051% V₂O₅ in HEZ-03
  • Titanomagnetite-rich zones average between 20% and 40% titanomagnetite, with localized massive layers exceeding 60%.
  • Drilling has confirmed the presence of oxide layering and associated magnetic anomalies to vertical depths of up to 300 meters.
  • Current drilling has tested just 1/40th of the identified 20 km strike extent of the oxide layering zone within the Dykes River Intrusion (refer to Figure 4 for map view) .
