citizen martyred after vehicle targeted in southern Lebanon
Nabatieh - (Saba): A citizen was martyred at dawn today, Saturday, after a Zionist enemy drone targeted a vehicle in southern Lebanon. The Lebanese National News Agency reported that an enemy drone carried out an aerial aggression in the town of Deir al-Zahrani, which led to the martyrdom of the young man Muhammad Ali Jamoul. It added that an enemy drone targeted his Kia car on the road adjacent to the Deir Al-Zahrani-Nabatiyeh highway near the pedestrian bridge, which led to the immediate martyrdom of the citizen, who is the brother of a martyr who rose in confrontations with the enemy in the Yuhmur Al-Shaqif area in the 66-day war, and the targeting was preceded by a remarkable flight, for the first time in this depth, of enemy Apache helicopters in the airspace of the region.

Show Low journalist accused of faking social media posts about missing teen, officials say
The editor of an online news outlet in northern Arizona was charged with fraud and obstructing an investigation after authorities said she made fake social media posts about a missing teenager. Jarrett Brooks, 17, went missing from his home in Joseph City in July 2023, according to the Navajo County Sheriff's Office. The Navajo County Attorney's Office said Molly Ottman, 50, of Show Low, made several Reddit posts posing as Brooks' father, Brian. The posts made months after the teenager's disappearance implied the man had molested his son. Ottman later contacted investigators to report the posts, the County Attorney's Office said. Police began investigating the allegations, executing search warrants at the man's residence and the offices of a private investigator he employed. They ultimately concluded that Ottman had made the posts herself. She works as an editor at the Mountain Daily Star, an online publication that covers Navajo and Apache counties. "A 16-year-old boy was missing, and all of law enforcement's energy and resources should have been able to remain focused strictly on the search for that young man," Navajo County Attorney Brad Carlyon said in a statement. "Diverting attention, resources and time to fabricated evidence creates unwarranted distractions during time-sensitive investigations." Ottman was due in court June 2. She did not respond to The Arizona Republic's request for comment on May 29, but previously told State 48 News the allegations against her were "absolutely untrue." She told the outlet she would plead not guilty in the case. Jarrett has been missing for nearly two years. He was first reported as a runaway July 4, 2023, according to the County Attorney's Office. The teen reportedly had an argument with his parents over being grounded before leaving, the office said. The County Attorney's Office said various law enforcement agencies have conducted "extensive searches" for Jarrett. The Sheriff's Office said in 2024 it had investigated hundreds of tips and leads regarding Jarrett's disappearance, but none offered credible information. Jarrett was last seen dressed in a black t-shirt with "AMERICA" across the front, blue jeans, cowboy boots and a baseball hat. He was described by law enforcement as a white male with brown eyes and blond hair. He is about 6 feet tall and weighs approximately 140 pounds. If you have any information regarding Jarrett's whereabouts, call the Navajo County Sheriff's Office at 928-524-4050.

Army weapons shake-up backed by Hegseth and other Trump picks
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and the wider Trump White House are providing "air cover" for the U.S. Army's ongoing vehicle-and-weapons upheaval, the service's top civilian told Axios. Why it matters: System shocks are exactly that — a shock. Executing them requires support, especially at such a politically volatile moment. "Fundamentally, they just have a risk tolerance that doesn't match, I think, previous administrations," Secretary Dan Driscoll said at a live Axios event. "There are a lot of states and congressional districts and lobbyists; there are rational reasons why it exists the way it is today," he said. "Those reasons are just not in the best interest of soldiers." Friction point: On the materiel chopping block are longtime favorites (Humvee, Apache and the Improved Turbine Engine Program) as well as relative newcomers (M10 Booker). By the numbers: The Army is expected to save $48 billion over the next five years. Driscoll told Axios he and others consider comparisons between the Army Transformation Initiative (ATI) and Elon Musk's DOGE a compliment. "I think DOGE is loaded," he added. "You have a lot of people who have these feelings about it." The intrigue: Both Driscoll and Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George have been working the media circuit since ATI was announced May 1.

Supreme Court Declines to Take Up Challenge to Big Arizona Copper Project
The Supreme Court cleared a major obstacle for a giant copper project in Arizona being developed by the world's two most valuable mining companies, declining to review a case from a coalition of Native American people, religious groups and others who say the planned mine will destroy a sacred site. The project, called Resolution Copper, has been under development by mining giants Rio Tinto and BHP Group BHP -0.21%decrease; red down pointing triangle for roughly two decades. The companies say the mine could supply as much as a quarter of current U.S. demand for copper, a metal viewed as essential to everything from electric vehicles to the data centers powering the AI boom. But it has faced repeated challenges by a group of local Apaches who argue the mine will turn a sacred area into a crater nearly 2 miles across, and deep enough to hold the Eiffel Tower. Supported by other Native American people, Christian groups, environmentalists and outdoor enthusiasts, the Apache group sought an appeal from the Supreme Court to block a federal land transfer needed for the project to advance. The court rejected a plea to review the case. As a result, the U.S. Forest Service will be able to go ahead with republishing a final environmental impact statement that opens the door to the land exchange, including a piece of land called Oak Flat, where opponents of the mine say they gather for religious ceremonies.
