South Carolina House primaries test party strength
Early returns show key primary races for U.S. House seats in South Carolina, where a handful of competitive districts could signal national midterm trends. Voter turnout and candidate performance are being closely watched.
The outcomes may preview broader voter sentiment ahead of November, particularly around economic policy and social issues dominating the national agenda. South Carolina’s diverse districts—rural, suburban, and urban—offer a microcosm of shifting political alignments.
Expect analysts to focus on margins in swing districts as a gauge for national messaging strategies.

US launches self-defense strikes on Iranian targets
The United States military conducted what it called "self-defense" strikes against Iran-linked positions, escalating a pattern of reprisal attacks that have now crossed into direct state-to-state confrontation. The action follows weeks of rising tensions over proxy engagements in the region.
The strikes risk pulling Washington into a broader Middle Eastern conflict, threatening global oil prices and supply chains already strained by geopolitical instability. For Europe and Asia, the immediate concern is whether this marks the start of a sustained campaign or a calibrated one-off response.
Watch for Iran's next move—whether it retaliates militarily or seeks diplomatic cover at the UN Security Council to isolate the US.
