A devastating drone attack targeted a military school graduation ceremony in Homs, Syria, resulting in a death toll exceeding 100 and over 120 individuals injured, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. In response, the Syrian regime declared three days of national mourning but did not release an official casualty count. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, and it was noted that Syrian Defense Minister Ali Mahmoud Abbas had left the ceremony shortly before the incident occurred.
In Australia, more than 300 vehicles suffered punctured tires after 750 kilograms of sharp metal casting spilled from a truck on the M1 Pacific Highway, one of the country’s busiest roads. The incident, which occurred in the early morning, led to a major traffic shutdown.
New South Wales State Highway Patrol Commander Howard Collins said the metal spread over 30 kilometers, making clean-up efforts difficult and time-consuming. “This isn’t just a matter of using a sweeper—we’re using magnetic tools to extract embedded metal from the road surface,” he explained.
The trucking company NJ Ashton issued an apology, stating, “We take full responsibility and are deeply sorry for the damage and disruption. We still do not fully understand how this happened.”
