Iran Threatens More Strikes on US After Qatar Attack and Gaza Crisis
Tensions in the Middle East have taken another dangerous turn as Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, issued a strong warning to the United States, making it clear that Iran is ready to strike again if provoked. His statement comes days after Iran launched missiles at a U.S. military base in Qatar, which he described as a clear message and a victory for Iran in what he called an ongoing battle for respect and sovereignty.
Khamenei, in his first speech since the latest round of attacks, dismissed reports claiming that Iran’s nuclear program had been crippled by U.S. airstrikes. He insisted that Iran’s capabilities remain intact and that the American attacks failed to achieve their goals. According to him, the missile strike on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, a key U.S. military hub, wasn’t a retaliation but a calculated warning meant to show Washington that Iran will defend itself when pushed.
“If they attack again, they will face consequences far beyond what they’ve seen,” Khamenei stated firmly, making it clear that Iran’s military is prepared to escalate the situation if necessary.
Meanwhile, Iran’s parliament is wasting no time. Lawmakers have already moved to reduce the country’s cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). This comes after growing frustration in Tehran that international bodies, especially the UN nuclear watchdog, have failed to condemn the U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites.
An update has been shared on the burnt building at Balogun Market on Lagos Island, as it was revealed that a man was rescued 11 days after the building caught fire.
According to reports, the man was found alive on January 6, 2026, after being discovered under the rubble of the collapsed structure.
The survivor has since been taken for proper medical care, while further details are yet to be released.
Meanwhile, passersby and market traders have expressed concern, fearing that more people may still be trapped alive inside the building.
It has been reported that Anthony Joshua has officially been discharged from the hospital following the terrible car crash that claimed the lives of his two closest friends and supporters.
The boxing star was deemed stable enough to go home after the accident. After his discharge, he visited the funeral to pay his respects and see the bodies of his two friends.
Many have expressed grief and offered their support to the boxing star, praying that he will be able to find peace, as grief will undoubtedly be one of the most painful challenges he will face in life.
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
“Rather than address these issues comprehensively, the Presidency has consciously minimized them and instead insisted that the commencement date must stand, despite the discrepancies,” the party said, adding that this “clearly shows where the priority of the government lies between Nigerians and money.”
