Donald Trump has publicly criticised Israel’s latest strike on Beirut, saying the attack “should not have happened” at a moment when the United States and Iran appear close to signing a deal aimed at ending the war, as an Iranian negotiator separately accused Washington of failing to prevent the strike. In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: “This morning’s attack on Beirut should not have happened, particularly on a special day when we are so close to a Peace Deal with Iran.

Health experts are warning that a recent decision by the US Food and Drug Administration to authorise certain fruit-flavoured e-cigarettes for adults could risk reversing years of progress in reducing teen vaping, as parents are urged to talk openly with their children about the dangers of e-cigarettes. The FDA’s policy shift, which followed months of lobbying from the vaping industry directed at President Donald Trump, allows fruit-flavoured vapes to be marketed to adults seeking to quit or cut down on traditional cigarettes. However, an FDA memo released this week acknowledged that these fruit-flavoured products are not significantly more effective at helping smokers quit than tobacco-flavoured alternatives.
