Israel’s arms maker Rafael has publicly displayed a full-scale model of its Sky Sonic hypersonic missile interceptor for the first time at the AUSA 2026 exhibition in Washington.
The model is mainly a rare public glimpse of a still-secretive program. https://twitter.com/Osint613/status/2111040122389238123/photo/1

Romania resumed its search Friday for seven sailors missing from the San Marino flagged chemical tanker "Wine Trader", which was hit by a drone early Thursday in the Black Sea, Reuters reports. The ship was about a mile outside Romanian territorial waters. Twelve sailors were aboard, five were rescued, and strong winds and rough seas hampered the search.
An interior ministry spokesperson said rescuers returned to search the ship. A Black Hawk helicopter would place four rescuers aboard while another ship searched nearby waters.
A second tanker, the Comoros flagged "Yara J", was hit by a drone inside Romanian waters late Wednesday. Its crew was unharmed and it was towed to the port of Constanta. Both ships were anchored near the Sulina canal, which links the Danube to the Black Sea and is a key export route for Ukraine, Reuters reports.
Romanian President Nicusor Dan said drones struck both ships. A NATO military source told Reuters the drones came from Russia.
Reuters says at least five other cargo ships were hit near Romania and Bulgaria in the past 10 days, with 23 sailors dead or missing. Most of those incidents were outside NATO territorial waters.

Iranian Navy: the vessel had shut off its tracking systems and was moving through a prohibited area east of the Strait of Hormuz when monitoring teams spotted it.

At the Port of Haifa right now.
Around 15 tanker and cargo ships are waiting offshore to enter the port and unload their goods.
Tensions are rising and the threat of another war looms.
A reminder that even in one of the world’s most volatile regions, life, commerce and the economy must go on.
