July 12 (Reuters) – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, a July 12 (Reuters) – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, a key Republican who went from a vocal critic of Donald Trump to one of his most loyal allies on Capitol Hill after Trump became president, has died at age 71.

The South Carolina lawmaker died after a “brief and sudden illness,” his office posted on X early on Sunday. NBC News said emergency personnel had responded to a call for cardiac arrest at his Capitol Hill home on Saturday night.

Shortly after his death was announced, Trump called Graham “one of the greatest people and senators I have known” and a hard-working patriot.

During the 2016 campaign, during which Graham was among many Republicans who lost the presidential nomination to Trump, he posted on social media: “If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed … and we will deserve it.”

Later, after becoming a staunch supporter, Graham publicly disagreed with Trump’s early 2025 decision to pardon about 1,500 of the president’s supporters who attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, saying it could lead to more violence.

A defense hawk, Graham “consistently pushed for outcomes in the War on Terror that protect our long-term national security interests,” his website said. He was a prominent supporter of Israel and Ukraine and opponent of Iran.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz posted on X that he was deeply saddened by the death of Graham, “who stood with Israel at its most difficult moments.”

WASHINGTON/DUBAI, July 12 (Reuters) – U.S. and Iranian forces exchanged heavy missile and drone strikes with Tehran targeting U.S. facilities in states across the Persian Gulf on Sunday after saying it had again closed the vital Strait of Hormuz.

A series of attacks between the U.S. and Iran over the past several days led President Donald Trump to declare the end of a ceasefire meant to halt the fighting that the U.S. and Israel began on February 28, though Trump has left the door open to continued negotiations.

The escalation followed several attacks on commercial ships in the area. Iran said it had closed the strait after firing a warning shot that struck a vessel traveling on an unapproved route, and said on Sunday it had disabled a second vessel.

The strait will remain closed until “the end of U.S. interference in this region,” Iran‘s Revolutionary Guards said.

U.S. Central Command, however, said commercial vessels continue to transit through the waterway that carried one-fifth of the world’s oil and LNG shipments before the war.

Central Command said U.S. forces hit 140 Iranian military targets on Saturday, out of more than 300 during three nights of strikes “to degrade Iran’s ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial vessels freely transiting the strait.”

Iranian state media reported explosions in a number of port cities.

In response, the Guards said they had destroyed a command and control center and drone hangars at U.S. ally Jordan, targeted a U.S. radar site in Kuwait, attacked U.S. aircraft carrier support and refueling platforms in Oman and destroyed a jet maintenance centre and command facility in Qatar.
July 12 (Reuters) – Iran‘s Islamic Revolutionary G July 12 (Reuters) – Iran‘s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said on Sunday that its aerospace forces carried out a heavy attack on U.S. aircraft carrier support and refueling platforms in the port of Duqm, in Oman, in the third stage of its response to what it called U.S. military ‘aggression.’

The IRGC added that the operation targeted logistical support centres for U.S. naval vessels.

Khamenei Is Buried, but His Crimes Remain The Sta Khamenei Is Buried, but His Crimes Remain

The Stage of Freedom group held its protest outside the British Prime Minister’s Office in London on Saturday, July 11, displaying its “Corridor of Ali Khamenei’s Crimes.”

Organizers said the installation was intended to highlight the victims of Khamenei’s rule as the Islamic Republic sought to overshadow its record of repression with elaborate mourning ceremonies.

The group pledged to keep the memory of the victims alive until Iran is free and called on Western governments not to negotiate or reach agreements with the Islamic Republic.
