Syria's Deadliest Days: Over 1,000 Killed in Clashes and Revenge Killings

In a tragic escalation of violence, over 1,000 people have lost their lives in Syria during two days of intense clashes and revenge killings. The conflict erupted between Syrian security forces and loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad, with sectarian violence targeting the Alawite community, a key support base of the former regime.

Trump Defies Advisers, Insists on Being 'Protector' of Women

The former president's insistence on this rhetoric comes as he struggles to gain traction among female voters, a demographic that has historically been challenging for him.

As the election approaches, Trump's campaign continues to navigate the delicate balance of appealing to his base while attempting to broaden his support among key voter groups.
