Israel v Iran LIVE: Tehran in chaos after blitz with gridlocked roads & ‘car bombs' as Trump says US may ‘get involved'

WAR ZONE Israel v Iran LIVE: Tehran in chaos after blitz with gridlocked roads & 'car bombs' as Trump says US may 'get involved' CARNAGE appears to have erupted in Tehran as civilians try to flee the Iranian capital amid car bombings and Israel's relentless strikes. It comes as Trump said the US may "get invovled" in the crisis after Tel Aviv carried out fresh strikes on Tehran this morning. 5 Smoke from an oil refinery rises over residential buildings in southern Tehran Credit: EPA 5 Iranian residents have abandoned their cars in droves as they attempt to get out of Tehran Credit: AFP 5 The aftermath of today's strikes on Tehran Credit: IRNA 5 Fire and smoke rise into the sky after an Israeli attack on the Shahran oil depot in Tehran, Iran Credit: Getty 5 Iran launched another wave of missile strikes on Israel last night Credit: AFP The Israeli airstrikes appear to have dealt a heavy blow to Tehran. A CNN corrspondent based in the capital reported people are getting stressed and panicking amid the high intensity attacks. Pictures show hundreds of cars gridlocked on roads as they try to flee the capital city. Local media reports heavy damage was caused to Tehran's urban infrastructure. Many buildings were seen destroyed in various parts of the city. The strikes are also said to have obliterated an aircraft repair centre, and targeted the city's famous Valiasr Square. A slew of car bombings were also reported, which the Iranian media has blamed in Israel. Tel Aviv has denied setting off these bombs. Residents are now understood to be fleeing the city due to a lack of bomb shelters. A dad of two told CNN: "I don't want to leave my home, but I am not going to put my young children in this situation." Israel and Iran have been fighting after Israel launched "pre-emptive strikes" it said were designed to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Israeli officials have now said Iran's theocratic dictator Khamenei is not "off limits" from targeting as it continues its air bombing in the Islamic republic. Trump told ABC News network today that it remains possible the US will become involved in the Iran-Israel conflict. He also warned Tehran would experience "the full strength" of the US military if it attacks the US bases in the Middle East. Iran and Israel sit on the brink of a full-scale war after Tel Aviv accused Tehran of trying to develop a nuclear bomb. The IDF killed top military leaders, nuclear scientists and blasted secretive sites believed to be being used by Iran to develop nuclear weapons. Last night, least 70 missiles across two waves targeted Israel's port city of Haifa alongside Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Rehovot. And while Israeli residents hunkered in bunkers, the country's military continued strikes against Iran's miliatry and nuclear targets.

Jimmy Kimmel takes to the streets during No Kings protest against Trump with obscene MAGA insult

was one of millions of people around the US who attended a No Kings protest on Saturday and he didn't keep his sentiments to himself. The late night talk show host, 57, who is building a mansion in Hermosa Beach, attended a rally with his parents, Joan and James Kimmel in the South Bay area of Los Angeles. The comedian, who has been very open about his criticism of President Donald Trump sent an interesting message with his clothing. The Jimmy Kimmel Live! star wore a white T-shirt sporting a twist on Trump's Make America Great Again with what looked like a home-made message reading 'Make America Good Again!' written on it in red and blue lettering. On his head, the funny man wore a red hat similar to the MAGA hats worn by Trump supporters which read 'I Am A F-ing Idiot' in a photo with his mom and dad on social media. James wore an old Obama campaign T-shirt featuring former president Barack Obama and the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, along with an LA Dodgers baseball cap. Meanwhile, Joan opted for a more subtle outfit, wearing a red and white striped button-down shirt with dark blue jeans. 'A huge, inspiring and yes - peaceful - turnout in the South Bay,' the Emmy winner wrote. 'I met many people who love this country and still believe it to be a force for good.' The event was one of dozens of peaceful protests held in and around the Los Angeles area 'I am grateful to see so many Americans take action to stand up for our friends and neighbors, most of all, my parents. I know how fortunate I am to have been born into a family that taught me to care about others and that the most important words ever spoken are 'Love one another.' It really is as simple as that. #NoKings' 'We love you Jimmy for this❤️❤️,' wrote a woman who added the hashtag '#mexican.' 'Thank you, Jimmy Kimmel for constantly pushing back at the Idiocracy,' penned a fan. 'I couldn't have said it better! Love you Jimmy- keep up the good fight!,' another wrote. 'We have to resist this terrible government overreach! They have the guns but we got the numbers!!' was the sentiment expressed by one commenter. 'Jimmy, you have gotten me through Covid and the Trump years. G-d bless you,' said a regular viewer. 'Thank you, Jimmy Kimmel for constantly pushing back at the Idiocracy,' penned a fan Tens of thousands of people are estimated to have taken part in No Kings protests across Los Angeles on Saturday, including some 200,000 in downtown Los Angeles, where many of the ICE raids have taken place since the Trump administration sent them to conduct raids at workplaces in the area, including hotels, restaurants and in the fashion district, where many immigrants work to sew clothing. Millions of Americans took part in demonstrations meant to counteract the military parade that took place in Washington, DC, ostensibly to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the US Army. The parade, which The Hill said was expected to cost taxpayers somewhere between $25 million and $45 million, also happened to take place on Trump's 79th birthday. That price tag did not include the cost of cleanup, police protection or damage to the streets from the large, heavy vehicles, such as tanks. Many protesters were also concerned about many provisions in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, including a provision that would allow the administration to violate judicial orders, specifically injunctions and temporary restraining orders issued by federal courts without being able to hold the violators in contempt of court.

Fox News guest is yanked off air as she slurs her words after drinking champagne during military parade

A former intelligence official was quickly taken off air after she appeared to slur her words during a Fox News interview on Donald Trump 's military parade. Rebekah Koffler, who previously worked as a Russian Doctrine and Strategy specialist in the US Defense Intelligence Agency, appeared as a guest during the network's marathon coverage of the event Saturday night. She joined the show shortly after 9:30 p.m. ET, but her interview appeared to be cut short leading to some internet speculation that she was intoxicated. She posted earlier in the day that she was slipping on champagne to celebrate. Fox hosts Lawrence Jones and Emily Compagno brought in Koffler after speaking with correspondent Lucas Tomlinson. 'I am so excited, Emily, and Lucas Tomlinson, everybody. Like, this is incredible. Finally the United States is, uh, is back,' Koffler said. 'I want really thank all of our Army, Navy, and Air Force officers who have been sacrificing their lives, literally. Their families have been contributing to the mission. Most of the time for the past quarter of a century because of the mismanagement of the, uh, the administrative state, they've been fighting these foreign wars. 'But with our new commander-in-chief, Donald J. Trump, they are prioritizing America first. And I wanna thank these officers for all of these sacrifices and all of the hardships that their families have endured. 'Lawrence Jones, you are doing– you're your [unintelligible], man! You guys and [unintelligible] Lucas! I wanna thank,' she said before getting cut off by Compagno. Koffler told the interview ended abruptly because of connection issues and producers told her they had lost the audio during the segment. She posted earlier in the evening promoting her interview saying, 'Go Army! Join me at 8:00 PM New York City time on @FoxNews for the special coverage of #Army250 #ArmyBirthday #GoArmy #MilitaryParade with @EmilyCompagno @LawrenceBJones3.' Koffler said her interview had been getting delayed since 7:45 p.m. and she unexpectedly had to do the hit remotely. However, a Fox News source told there was no connection issues during the segment. Clips of the interview went viral, with many commenters pointing to a since-deleted tweet Koffler posted showing she had been drinking before the segment. 'Well @POTUS is apparently encroaching on my airtime! My hit is moved to 8:20 - 8:30 pm depending on how long #Trump takes,' she said. 'I'm honored. Refilling my #champagne glass while waiting for my hit!' One person said, 'Sounds like she's been celebrating for 250 years. Who thought it would be OK to put her on tv?' 'That is hard to watch. You should put a sensitive warning on that video. It is the very definition of cringe,' said another. Others defended Koffler, noting that she was born in Russia and English may not be her first language. 'That is how Rebecca speaks... English is not her first language,' one person said. 'She took a little too much in celebratory mood - who are we to judge her? Focus on the success of the Military Parade. American Pride on display,' said a second.
