We have monitored the situation and responded accordingly." Live Events On Friday, 26 sorties of PLA aircraft, 7 PLAN vessels and one official ship were recorded operating around Taiwan's territory. Earlier on Thursday, MND noted a record surge in Chinese military activity, with 48 PLA aircraft, 9 PLAN vessels, and one official ship. The frequent incursions and maritime operations reflect rising tensions between Taiwan and China, a relationship long fraught with geopolitical strain. Taiwan, officially the Republic of China (ROC), governs itself independently with its own political and economic systems. However, China continues to claim Taiwan as part of its territory under the "One China" principle, insisting there is only one China with its capital in Beijing. The dispute's roots trace back to the end of the Chinese Civil War in 1949, when the ROC government fled to Taiwan after the Communist Party, led by Mao Zedong, took control of mainland China. Since then, Beijing has maintained its goal of reunification, using military, diplomatic, and economic means to apply pressure on Taiwan and diminish its international space. Despite these efforts, Taiwan maintains its de facto independence with strong public support and continues to assert its sovereignty amid ongoing external pressures. The MND regularly monitors and publicly reports such military movements to ensure transparency and national security awareness.

Trump calls Tulsi Gabbard 'hottest in the room', backs her explosive Obama-rigging claims
At a recent White House event, US President Donald Trump stirred fresh controversy by praising Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard as 'the hottest one in the room' and endorsing her newly released report that alleges former President Barack Obama orchestrated a plot to rig the 2016 election. 'Oh, where's Tulsi? She's, like, hotter than everybody,' Trump said while gesturing toward Gabbard. 'She has all the documents. She found out that Barack Hussein Obama led a group of people and they cheated in the elections.' He added, 'They cheated without question. It's not even a quote.'

While her findings reportedly show no tampering with vote totals—something previously acknowledged by multiple agencies—the report suggests this absence weakens the broader narrative of Russian interference, which has been upheld by several bipartisan investigations. Reviving old claims, Trump once again accused familiar adversaries—Obama, Hillary Clinton , former FBI Director James Comey, and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper—of conspiring against him. 'Obama was the ringleader,' Trump declared, describing the alleged plot as an attempted coup. Live Events Obama's camp issued a rare public response, dismissing the claims. 'These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction,' said spokesperson Patrick Rodenbush. Gabbard's release is the latest in a string of efforts by Trump allies to discredit past investigations, including the 2017 intelligence community assessment and Robert Mueller's special counsel report. While Mueller documented extensive contact between Trump's campaign and Russian actors, he stopped short of concluding a criminal conspiracy. The timing of Gabbard's report has also drawn scrutiny, coinciding with renewed public focus on the Jeffrey Epstein case . Though Trump dismissed that scandal as a 'witch hunt,' questions about his past links to Epstein continue to fuel demands for transparency—even among his own supporters.

Rare juvenile dinosaur 'Ceratosaurus' fossil sells for $30.5 million at Sotheby's auction
A rare juvenile Ceratosaurus fossil believed to be the only one of its kind sold for a jaw-dropping $30.5 million at Sotheby's on Wednesday(July 16). The fossil, uncovered in 1996 at Bone Cabin Quarry in Wyoming, is one of only four known Ceratosaurus skeletons ever discovered and the only juvenile among them. Measuring over six feet tall and nearly 11 feet long, the 150-million-year-old relic includes 139 fossilized bone elements, 57 of which form what Sotheby's calls a 'superb, virtually complete skull.'

It previously spent over two decades on display at the Museum of Ancient Life in Utah but has never been formally studied in scientific literature. Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play War Thunder now for free War Thunder Play Now Undo by Taboola by Taboola Ceratosaurus nasicornis was a carnivorous dinosaur known for its distinctive nasal horn, long teeth, and bony armor along its spine and tail. The species roamed North America during the late Jurassic period. While Sotheby's says the unnamed buyer intends to loan the fossil to an institution, paleontologists remain cautious. Live Events 'Who has that kind of money to spend on a dinosaur? Certainly not any museums or educational institutions,' said Steve Brusatte, a paleontology professor at the University of Edinburgh. 'My fear is that this skeleton will disappear into the ether into a mansion or a bank vault.' Still, auction officials argue the private market can play a vital role in preserving and promoting scientific specimens. 'These stellar results underscore a deep and enduring fascination with the natural world,' said Cassandra Hatton, Sotheby's global head of science and natural history. 'What draws collectors is more than a passion for science; it's curiosity about the forces that shaped our planet.' The sale follows a trend of surging fossil prices , including last year's record-breaking $44.6 million sale of 'Apex,' a Stegosaurus skeleton that now resides at the American Museum of Natural History. 'Bottom line,' said Brusatte, 'a world where dinosaur skeletons can fetch tens of millions of dollars is not a world where dinosaurs will long be accessible to educate and inspire everyone.'
