In a tragic incident on January 28, 2024, a drone attack claimed the lives of three U.S. service members and injured 34 others at a Jordanian military base near the Syrian border, carried out by Iran-backed militants. President Biden pledged retaliation, marking the first deadly assault on U.S. forces in the Middle East since the Israel-Hamas conflict began. The fallen soldiers, identified as Sgt. William Jerome Rivers, Spc. Kennedy Ladon Sanders, and Spc. Breonna Alexsondria Moffett, were reservists from the 718th Engineer Company in Fort Moore, GA. The incident raises concerns about the security of U.S. military bases in the region, prompting discussions on potential responses and implications for regional tensions. Meanwhile, an Israeli intelligence report alleging United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) employees' involvement in the October 7 attack triggers swift action, with the organization terminating contracts, launching an internal investigation, and facing scrutiny over its neutrality. Michelle Obama's potential political ambitions stir speculation, despite her denials, and Snoop Dogg's surprising change of heart towards Donald Trump, citing a pardon, sparks varied reactions. Additionally, Fulton County, Georgia, grapples with a cyberattack, disrupting vital systems and prompting a reevaluation of local government cybersecurity measures, coinciding with the county's role in the 2020 election interference case.
