The US Coast Guard announced the discovery of wreckage from the missing Titan submersible near the Titanic. The debris field was found by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) about half a kilometer away from the Titanic’s bow on the sea floor. The Coast Guard confirmed that the debris is consistent with the catastrophic loss of the submersible’s pressure chamber. OceanGate Expeditions, the company that owned and operated the submersible, expressed their belief that the five passengers on board, including a billionaire explorer and members of a prominent Pakistani family, had tragically been lost.

The submersible went missing during a dive to the Titanic wreck site in the North Atlantic, and an international search effort led by the US Coast Guard was underway.

Iran Warns Europe Over Nuclear Dispute

On Jun 6, 2025

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arakchi issued a stern warning to the UK, Germany, and France, accusing them of making a “new strategic mistake” regarding Tehran’s nuclear program. In a social media post, Arakchi said, “Iran will give a tough and determined response to the violation of its rights,” criticizing the European trio for backing a resolution against Iran at the IAEA Board of Governors.

Arakchi condemned the move as baseless, recalling past disputes in 2005 which led to the expansion of Iran’s uranium enrichment. “Have these three really not learned any lessons in the last twenty years?” he said.

Meanwhile, the IAEA reported on May 31 that Iran’s 60% enriched uranium stockpile had grown from 274.8 kg in February to 408.6 kg by May 17. In response, the UK, Germany, and France are reportedly preparing to refer Iran’s file to the UN Security Council, which could activate the “snapback” mechanism and reimpose UN sanctions.
