09.06.2025 โข The Day Trump Sent Marines to Los Angeles
โจ
Trump escalated his Los Angeles response by deploying hundreds of Marines alongside the National Guard already stationed there, declaring "bring in the troops" as immigration protests entered their fourth day. The President ordered mass arrests of masked demonstrators while California's governor prepared legal action against what he termed illegal federal conduct. A British photographer required emergency surgery after being struck by a non-lethal round during the unrest.
Israeli forces intercepted Greta Thunberg's Gaza aid vessel in international waters, with reports claiming the crew was forced to watch October 7 footage while detained. Sweden refused Thunberg's plea for consular assistance, accusing her supporters of clogging emergency hotlines. The climate activist remained in an Israeli detention facility by evening.
Chancellor Reeves executed a major winter fuel U-turn, announcing nine million pensioners would receive payments again after political pressure. Russia launched what Ukraine described as its largest bombardment of the war, prompting NATO jets to scramble in Eastern Europe.
