U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth makes a surprise visit to the Middle East, reportedly meeting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel as regional tensions soar and the IDF goes on its highest state of alert ahead of the October 27 election. Netanyahu is fighting a tight election battle, banking on President Donald Trump’s endorsement to boost his campaign, while Vice President JD Vance declines to take sides and new polls show opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot widening his lead. Meanwhile, security fears are mounting across the region as Iran-backed Houthi rebels intensify deadly missile and drone attacks, killing dozens of soldiers in Yemen and targeting Saudi infrastructure, raising concerns about a broader military escalation.
