US inserts itself into Israel’s war with Iran, striking 3 Iranian nuclear sites
SUMMARY: The U.S. launched strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites—Fordo, Natanz, and Esfahan—joining Israel’s war against Iran’s nuclear program. President Trump declared the sites “completely and fully obliterated” without independent verification and warned of more strikes if Iran retaliates. Iran condemned the attacks, promising consequences and seeking a UN Security Council meeting. The International Atomic Energy Agency reported no increased radiation at the sites. Israel sounded missile alerts amid ongoing Iranian barrages. The U.S. used bunker-buster bombs and Tomahawk missiles in the first combat use of the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator. The conflict risks escalating regionally despite Trump’s reluctance to send ground troops.

Tropical update: Tracking two disturbances for possible development
SUMMARY: Tropical waves in the Atlantic basin are being closely monitored this week. One wave near the coast of Africa has a 50% chance of developing over the next seven days, while another in the central Atlantic has about a 20% chance and may fizzle out. A possible secondary wave could form near Africa as well. This pattern aligns with typical Atlantic hurricane season trends, which are quiet in June and July, peak around September 10th, and decline through October. Both the Euro and GFS models currently keep these disturbances north of the Caribbean, but rain chances and isolated storms will continue into next week.
Invest AL96 and AL97 are churning in the Atlantic as the peak of hurricane season approaches.

Texas migrant detention center to be largest in US
SUMMARY: The U.S. military is constructing Camp East Montana at Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas, which will be the largest federal migrant detention center in U.S. history. Initially housing 1,000 migrants awaiting deportation, it will expand to 5,000 beds. The Army has spent $232 million so far, with a $1.24 billion contract awarded to Acquisition Logistics for the facility. Earlier plans to detain migrants at Guantanamo Bay were halted due to unmet ICE housing standards. Currently, 33 high-threat and eight low-threat migrants remain at Guantanamo. The White House has not commented on the tent infrastructure status.
The Fort Bliss, El Paso, center will be the largest in US history.
